would you, could you, change?
So, worked with a guy 20 years ago who looks like Sean Connery, stayed on friendly terms ever since, phone calls, occasional emails, even visits, I liked his GF, we all got on well. Now he is single and has got in touch (not to ask me out, just to tell me) and my first reaction? YES.Second reaction - non-smoker. I'd have to quit, and mean it.
Third reaction - he gets up at 05h00 by choice and preference. Well, that's fine in a friend, but in a potential partner?
Anyway. Point of this blog - have you ever changed for someone?
Would you?
Don't think I could, or would, but he is SUCH a nice guy ...

But - perfect world, I only go to bed at 02h00. And I LOVE smoking. And he's a great friend, don't muck that about.
What a waste. Huh.
compromise, and the rest is easy.
am here and safe.
i gave up the cigs when going out with my Boo.. not that he asked or wanted me to but i only done so because i didn't want to risk never seeing him again..pathetic isn't it
Maybe your more of a no string type of gal
second that emotion." - Smokey Robinson.
Smoking? Should give it up anyway (smile) but as you obviously want to continue, is it worth to smoke and be alone the rest of your life?
I'd rather be with someone I love, than a cigarette, but that's me.
PG - hey. You smoke too!!
PG - one step at a time ...
Character or values - no
I have to get up at 6 (not by choice!!!) and himself just turns around and snoozes a couple of hours more. No conversation early mornings that way either.
I would just see how it goes. It's more than smoking or getting up early to make something work or not.
How good of a friend is he? Would it be a big loss to loose him and his friendship if things would go pear-shaped?(that's what would bug me).
I'm riding off of KN. Comment to you.
Heyyyy!
I'm Back Home!
Again!.....
There HAVE been times over the years, especially before the last GF when he had just moved to the UK and stayed in my spare room until he could get himself sorted with a job and somewhere to live, when we both, independently, went through the should-we moments and both independently decided not to rock a boat that was doing just fine. That still stands.
The 'what if?' is really just because we do so like seeing each other occasionally. I don't think it would translate into anything more in-depth and I really wouldn't like to lose that liking!
Anywho! About you two.
Who said that you will lose the friendship! You can also be gaining a relationship too. I mean! Ain't that's how some relationship begins? Friends First!
Just Saying!
Noooo!
Who said that! You has to change to be with him. Or to be with someone?
