if I had a job that I enjoyed...I enjoy using the skill set required, I take enjoyment from my work, I feel passionate about the work I am involved with...yada yada...
and my boss was an a**hole...
I would focus on the pleasure and sense of fulfillment I get from the work, I would focus on my own performance and sense of doing well, and spend as little time as possible thinking about my a**hole boss.
Sometimes it's best to take what you want and leave the rest from a situation.
By focusing on what you enjoy about the job, you will create less stress in your life. Only you are responsible for your own happiness.... if another contributes to your happiness...weellll....that's just icing, which you can't control.
If this job is not something you enjoy and grow with, it's time to focus on identifying something you can feel passionate about to pursue.
In the meantime, focus on doing your job well... cause that's gonna bring it into focus and make opportunities with your skills for another job.
i used to have my photo up (long ago...) and folks who've been here a while know what i look like. and from time to time, i still put a photo up.
having said that, i did meet someone on CS (without photo) and got to know him a bit before i ever knew what he looked like. and we'll be having our 6 year anniversary soon.
i think what's important...is to be open and curious with some common sense. you can always exchange photos privately after you get to know each other a bit.....
(your answer sounded so much more intelligent... )
and i don't know about your comment, but mine was a joke...i believe folks have the right to believe in what they choose to believe in. having said that....know any good buddhist jokes?
you get what you focus on. there are many women on this site seeking serious committed relationships...perhaps you are attracting to yourself those women that fit your views..?
change your thinking, and your results may change.
( ....change your perception....change your reality...)
I think there was a time when that would of worked, and bring laughter as well... but not so much now...would end up being a paste and post glory fest with tooooo much to read..
I'd like to see a thread, 'You don't have to be right...Ya just need to be tolerant'
That's my take on it..... , although there's plenty of folks swear by it. One needs to be careful though.... I used to drink a lot of pink grapefruit juice too, till I found out it contained red dye. So I switched to just regular grapefruit juice. And I also tried the vinegar for a while....ended up in hospital over night with low potassium. (was struggling with gallstones at the time.... and apple cider vinegar was supposed to help with that... it didn't)
RE: relation ship through the distance. why is so difficult
yes..... 'disposal in a relationship, and meeting the other person' can become a concern....
