..., dear searchers. Even given the fact that women seem able to emote more than men, and I find they are more likely to lend importance to, and belief in, the concept underlying these few powerful words. Another blog topic. But many men, usually after a few beers, and often with regret, can, and do, do so. So what is behind it all? The range of talk/claims/beliefs/delusions is enormous. We have those who insist on the "at first sight" idea. Well, if I'm to believe my parent's generation, and those who perhaps spend a little too much time reading romance novellas, they, of course have a point. Not a few sixty and seventy year long marriages, here. But then, some would say, it's really "falling into LUST" instead, often.enough. More innocent times? Sure enough have been there. Some hurtful failures/betrayals, periods of loneliness, the all powerful family and cultural expectations---.perhaps in the context of a little drink, travel, other new experience (jobs?), and there you sometimes have it. For our parents, it was Dad's uniform, and Mom's abilities on the roller skate floor. And it's not merely used for other people. Who hasn't had similar feelings for a young pet, or even some objects/pastimes? In my experience, some such phenomena have, from time to time, existed for me, most often in situations just described. But I think it's important to be ready, and not a little surprised, by these usually overwhelming feelings. Hence the term "falling". Focus on the appearance, voice, walk, humour, lifestyle, intelligence, perhaps even successes, of others can come into play. And empathy/sympathy for unfortunates does often lead DOWN the path. The so called "feeling sorry for, or even pity--- fall". Makes one wonder just how healthful is the experience, for some. A few "marry" into a religious tradition, or cult, and homosexual love opens up many other topics. Yet, who can deny how strong is/are the feeling(s)? So much so, that thoughts come to biological aspects of falling for another. Fruitful unions certainly have evolutionary import. And what of all those conscious, and unconscious odors/pheromones? One of my guitar heroes, the often brilliant Frank Z., even wrote a song about love for his "little rubber blow up doll". Three holes and no lip. What?

Walking away from toxic relationship does not mean you don't love or care for that person it means you love yourself first and you care for yourself first. The first person that matters in this life is you.
This is called self care and self love

It is a question I have often seen asked here, so I thought I should say, the answer is, Yes, web dating can actually work but only if you are seriously looking, and well, perhaps if it is in your Kismet.
New girl contacted me from the other side of the world and based on experience I was suspicious. So was she but, mirroring my guarded approach could have been a ploy. However, she asked for nothing and the relationship grew. We were constantly in touch and it gradually became evident that not only were we a good match but really liked each other. In the end I got on a plane, well several, and arrived on her doorstep. What can I tell you, she is everything I thought she was and so very much more. I'm deliriously happy, very glad I came and not in a hurry to go anywhere.
I have lived in the country all my life and suddenly find myself in the middle of a big city! That in itself is strange to me but I can live with it, no problem, if it means I can be with her. In the words of the song, 'love is all you need.'
Perhaps I should also mention that this is across languages as well. I speak French and English, she speaks Spanish and only a coupla words in English so the whole courtship has been conducted in Spanish. Thank you Google Translate in it's many forms, especially the new Gboard 'translate as you type' feature on your cell. I can of course, now speak adequate Spanish which, has come on in leaps and bounds, being in an environment where it is my only option for communication without resorting to an App. And the added bonus is that learning a new language, amongst other things, keeps Alzheimer's away.
Life is, as always, good. Thank you Universe.
Best wishes everyone and good luck to those who are seriously looking.

...of course, some do so because of their orientation. But I wonder how many of us here on CS who are straight do so with any regularity. Now and again, I'll get a man in the roster of females, and more rarely, I'll get a note from a man. But I probably have not seen more than a dozen profiles of men. I wonder if it might be worthwhile as a learning experience, to look at more male profiles, although I wonder what could be learned thus. One thing I would like to know is if there is a large difference between the sexes in the focus on honesty, and having a job or other independent means of self support. I see it all the time in ladies profiles. How much they hate lairs, and how they don't want to support a man financially. And less often, the women with kids at home make a point of saying that potential matches must accept the kids. And that only marriage is an option in a relationship. Important points in searching for a committed partner. But there probably are differences between the sexes.
