When The Novelty Wears Off...
...What would you do?The thrill and excitement when I find something new always brighten my day, always give me that devious smile. It's challenging and I can't seem to get enough of it. Too much of it though can wear the novelty off real quick and when that happens, I move on and look for something new.
In friendship, I do give it my best shot but when it start to wear off, I don't like to try to modify it or to try to make it better...I simply move on and find replacement
In material things, there are stuffs that have sentimental value to me, they might be cheap and mean nothing to others but I will keep them for life, I value them more than my friends I guess
In relationship...( this is the tricky one )...if someone means a lot to me, I will fight hard for him. I did when I was married but perhaps I didn't try hard enough. With my BF, the novelty wears off and on again
and that's because something always comes up that would reignite the fire and add new meaning and excitement to the relationship. Sounds crazy I know but that's me.
In online friendships...I do chat to some good friends here, did closely chat to a few but not for long, the novelty wears off...and simply moved on to the next one
Nobody got hurt...it's just the way with online world I guess. With blogging, the novelty is on and off, depends on my mood and the blog topics posted.
When the novelty wears off, I take a step back, get on with real world and come back with some positive blogs ( if not s*xual and naughty ) ) ...aim to put some smile on others' faces.Now, if it comes to sex... what if the novelty wears off ? What would you do? Would you do it for his/her sake, hoping it will get better or would you cut and run?

what "novelty" are you talking about?
everybody does that...you, what do you do?
OK, I got it...but does it really wear off for all men?
you mean...it's worn out already?
im joking, but imagine if that happened
that would be the end of any man's life
what else to do but beat him with the book
Hi crazy
How are you these days?
So you do get bored too?
what's wrong with your day?
so you'll cut and run? don't you want to do something to make it work?
That reminds me of a friend or two who thinks the world revolves around their these and that
I prefer to stay home alone and do some knitting or baking than be around them
I met one friend a couple of years ago, she loved to visit me and really eager to be my friend, I was excited at first then the novelty started to wear off so soon because she couldn't talk about anything else other than how her good life turned out to be bad...worse,she cried a lot! and I really didn't see any reason for her to cry
Started to avoid her...few months later I unexpectedly met her again...she and her kids went home with me and we had dinner at my place...then there she goes again
run away from her
If I don't like the company, I'll find ways to avoid them...but if they're already there, I won't be rude, I will tolerate them as long as I could
good for him...bad for me, eh?
Seriously, life is too short...we have to do what makes us happy. If you're happy to run then run...if you're happy to stay then stay
your ways of escaping are really exciting...I'm sure you always come back fully reloaded
where have you been
YES, that happens a lot with my son...he wants this food and that food...I'll buy it, he'll try it, novelty wears off...I have to eat them or put them on the trash
You've lost me at the "life and death"
I'm going to sleep for now...wake me up later please...
I think people do get bored from time to time...making love to the same person over and over again for many years...need a break!
There were times when I did get bored when I was married...sometimes I pretended I was asleep!
It's best to constantly do and try new things,not avoid complacency setting in.
Either in your own life, or as a couple
I suggest being available to the man at any time. Even if he wakes you up at 3:00 AM wanting it. Most men are satisfied if it's not broken. Sure they may like a new car, but if the old one still works it keeps them satisfied. Women on the other hand, seem to always be looking for that new pair of shoes.
I mean I will stick to my horses instead.
You should find grounded-ness internally. Everything external will eventually bore or disappoint you.
If you contribute to the surrounding environment, you can add to its positive or negative effects. Do not expect that environment to fulfill you.
But...
You can expect it to fulfill you....have fun with that.
If it's about relationship and people I care about, I hold on to them...always do my best
But there are people in life who simply don't fit in it anymore, we have to let go...I'm talking about friends here
Yes, I do have old converse shoes and jeans that I love so much...they have holes but I'm not giving up on them
Wise words...thanks!
