Just did something I never thought I'd do.

Last night I posted a blog on a site to do with one of my interests. The advice I got from there made me think and it also made sense. My relationship ended a little over a month ago and as I said in a previous blog a couple of weeks ago I eventually plucked up the courage to ask a single guy if he'd like to meet for a coffee and got turned down. Well these things happen and though it knocked my confidence a bit it did teach me a lesson. Basically whereas I used to feel incredibly lonely and wanted to meet someone so that I wouldn't be lonely any more I now know thanks to the guy who turned me down that when I meet someone there needs to be that special chemistry. My attitude had been attracting the wrong guys into my life. So now is the time for a change. I'm now looking for friendship and if something develops it does. If I get lonely I can go to the pub or for a walk in the valley or even come on here. I am going to enjoy life and see what it brings. This is something that I never thought I'd do but I've done it.

I like the attitude if lonely find something to do & enjoy life. There is so much in life to do & enjoy. When I feel lonely I get out of place & find something to do that I enjoy. The possibilities are endless.
Sweet Kitten 4, too many people offer their advice on the subject of romance. I only offer you my opinion and I do not mean it as advice. I have lived in this world for over 60 years and found that my best relationship began as a friendship. I think that to love is first liking a person, then trusting them, and finaly finding that life is less, in so many ways, without him. I believe that you were probably blessed when the man turned you down for coffee and he was being a gentleman. You see, someone of less character would have accepted the coffee date and taken advantage of your vulnerability. You are a lovely woman with much to offer your family and eventually a good man. I agree, when we are so hungry for affection we often attract the wrong kind of person. I am so proud that you are examining your approach and life. Please blog more, it does help to let your feeling out and while doing so, you can help other people see things that they are unaware. Thank you for sharing such a personal event.
@sweetkitten4: I am glad to hear about that :smile .. Every experience we have in our life can benefit and make us grow in so many ways, no matter how bad the relationship was, there is always a lesson to be learned .. Enjoy your time for now ..

Good luck thumbs up
Thank you for the comments. This morning I've been out to the valley and sat there for a while. So beautiful and peaceful out there. I've caught up with some house work, done some gardening and waited for someone to service my gas boiler. He's just gone so now I'm going to relax for the rest of the day. Have a lovely day everyone.
@sweetkitten4,

I like to go by,
"You have to be happy single before you can be happy in a relationship!"

It works for me!

Cheers to a attitude changing event! :-)

I am a reliable, honest, caring and easy going lady. I'm an early riser. When I first meet someone I can be a bit shy but do tend to open up once I get to know someone. I also wear two hearing aids so who ever I meet needs to face me and speak clearl [read more]
