So... I just talked to my ex whom I've been very close friends with now. We did some catching up and he told me that he took off his dating app profile and deleted the app completely. Because finally he has decided to give his relationship with his girlfriend of 8 years, his first girlfriend a last try.

I am happy for the girl and for him, but Im a little bit jealous that after all that he's been through, and everyone he's found, he went back and chose that girl.

Maybe because that girl waited and hoped and been patient with him all this time. For whatever reason he has, I have wished to have one day someone choose me too. That someone no matter how difficult Ive been choose me over anyone.

What a heavy feeling for a wonderful Sunday!

Blessed Sunday everyone!

Many people here openly say they are looking for love.

Where do they think to find it ?

People are so obsessed with finding love. (I feel) But it's not a job/business opportunity, lost puppy or a Diamond in a mine to be found or to look for.

You can not find love signing up in a dating site with an ideal partner solidly etched in your head. Matches are only made in heaven. May be you will find a perfect match if and when you reach there. On earth you have to become the match.

Be open minded. Be kind. Be loving. You have to start loving in order to be loved. Love is in loving. You won't find it anywhere else unless you first find it in your own heart.

So... until you find love within yourself, all you need is not love. A shag, a partner to share your life or loneliness with. (May be.)

Delete the ideal image in your mind and learn to accept people for who they are while not changing who you are. That's the basic seed of love.

Or just say, looking for a shag. That is honesty to a certain degree with most profiles. I think.

Man... there is always something. I feel like I’ve been shagged by the first one, she said as much... the most recent, she digs me but like the first, has issues going on, ex boyfriend was abusive syndrome and is all conflicted... meanwhile, I’m bummed because I catch feelings ... particularly when they talk for hours and we have a blast, have great everything ... repeat dates... lots of em... the. There is some shoe that drops.

The most recent one is freaking awesome, but in recovery... thirteen stepping its called ... she is trying to not thirteen step, she has issues worse than mine ... both do actually, but I wasn’t thinking it was a red flag for either... but ex boyfriend syndrome, issues with recovery and can’t really hold their liquor and struggling with a dui... um.. she didn’t lie about a thing, but she got wonky when she started to feel love for me... she will be around, but I’m not looking to chase... see ya honey, I’m here... if you need moral support and stuff... cool... frankly she is kind of young for me... certainly has some issues that I hope she grows out of... but judge her? No way, she is pretty awesome flaws or not, friends for life... and I know she enjoys being with me... you can tell...

They both were conflicted with ex boyfriend baggage... the first one dug me enough for five dates, this last one over ten dates... and she didn’t call it off... she has needed tome before and comes back ... but... the hot cold hot cold.. I love you, want to shag you a lot followed with... this is getting too hot? Hmm... ok... here is some ice... that should help. Im moving on....

I just blasted all my dating logins too boot except here.

It wouldn’t be too bad, except, you can’t tell if they talked crap the whole time telling you what you wanted to hear to mess with you or are legitimately conflicted and slightly damaged goods and actually going through stuff... I can’t complain, we weren’t dating, she made moves, not me, caught feelings, passion, intimacy, going strong, catch feelings, tell me she is falling for me.. then cold feet after lots of that? Ok...

This isn’t me... I’m honest, god fearing, and my biggest crime god wise is not waiting until marriage to rock there world ... and this one, I was not even making moves, we were just hanging out... then she flipped the script... and she flipped it again... not after one time mind you... and every time we got frisky, she was The one to go from friends to benefits... and seconds, thirds, etc. lol..

Dam... well, I hear feedback from women... and so far, I have game and romance and they all seem to like me in the bedroom and think I’m intelligent, polite, not a d*ck basically and know how to love and treat a lady... but you know... I’ll jist keep my eyes open and meeting folks all over like I do...

My thing is monogamy ... and not major commitment, jist don’t screw any other dude if I’m your current tickle... that’s reasonable... lol. If I call you my lady, it means, I’m spoken for, you are spoken for... if that’s too much and you shag over and over and can’t commit to that bit... none said they wanted to go screw another... one shagged me, the other... jist got overwhelmed with her own feelings and she needs to regroup... whatever... sounds like a pain in the a** to deal with to me...

I have a simple dating philosophy... the bedroom is easy to master... it’s all that time you aren’t in bed that is the problem.... I prefer no drama ... can deal with quite a bit of drama, but not when my heart gets caught in their yo-yo of saying one thing, then back peddling the. saying it again, ... um... leading me on then Off on then off, more frisky, lots of lovey Dubby stuff and conversation, all is awesome, followed with the I dunno...

Well often these women call back, both did this hot cold hot cold thing over and over... next please...

Some problems in relationships can be tackled as a couple but some problems are a lot harder to solve. In fact, some of the relationship problems listed here just can’t be fixed. Look for the symptoms early in a relationship. The longer you wait to fix or terminate, the harder it becomes.

No Respect For Each Other
This is probably the number one reason for failed relationships. It manifests itself by contempt, finger-pointing, sarcasm and so forth. If both partners are unwilling to compromise, things will get worse until there is no coming back.

Needless Arguments
There will be times when you disagree on an issue. Agree to disagree. No one wins when one of you always has to be right.

Chronic Infidelity
Nothing can be more exhausting in a relationship than a serial cheater. Such a relationship can be repaired but only if the unfaithful partner is prepared to leave the affair behind.

Secrecy
We all need time apart but what we do in our free time shouldn’t be some great mystery. There’s a difference between privacy and secrecy. Too much secrecy leaves you feeling emotionally abandoned. A relationship needs sharing and openness.

Incompatible Sex Drives
A mutually fulfilling sex life is incredibly important in a long-term relationship. You should establish your sexuaI compatibility early on; it cannot be fixed later.

Not Able To Open Up To Each Other
If one of you prefers to keep your emotions bottled up, you will end up distancing yourself from your partner, giving up prematurely.

An Avoidant Partner
If your partner is avoiding and dismissive it’s going to be difficult. It can turn a calm and self-assured person into a bundle of neediness.

Narcissism
Maintaining a relationship with a narcissistic partner is an uphill battle. It is not uncommon for the narcissistic partner to sometimes throw a bone here and there, giving the other partner hope but most of the time they will criticize you for making their life miserable.

If you detect any of these in yourself, start working on it... if you treasure your relationship.


Remember, today is the first day of the rest of your life. Make it memorable.

I was 25 when I opened up myself for a romantic relationship. My friends said that it wasn't even real because it was online. We met and carry our relationship online without meeting up in person. To me it was real, i meant every word and everything I did for our relationship. However, we still separated after 4 years.

Moving on, I got lonely, and even when its dangerous and there's too much prejudice attached to a filipina dating in Saudi Arabia, I did it for my loneliness. And because I can bend some rules at my own risk.

After numerous dates though, mostly meeting the guys once, some twice and 2 a few months and 1 labeled relationship, I realized the men (non saudis, expats like me) won't look for anything more than casual. It broke my heart more than the breakup with my boyfriend for 4 years.

So yeah, i don't know if its better for me to take myself back online, or continue dating men without a hope for future. Or stop all the effort and just wait for God's perfect time.

Hello to all the visitors and strangers. Comment anything here. Just wanna see the different peoples around the world.

Let's make this online dating experience fun by being open honest and real it is the only way we can find the real thing so go ahead and get ??

A person can go down on his hands and knees to please another and yet he sees no love because the other person loves somebody else unconditionally.

So I've decided to write my thoughts out in public for the first time...call it blogging if you will...because having been on a few dating sites I am disturbed. These days honesty is rare and not usually celebrated....though everyone asks for it. Scammers and liars themselves root for honesty while busy plying their trade. It angers me that the few honest folks who visit these websites get lost in the sea of no good disgusting deceivers and one has to be searching for the needle in the haystack wasting valuable time and energy just to see if you can locate a decent genuine human being to communicate with. What the hell is wrong with people!???
Then there is the matter of the schemes of these liars according to gender....so funny. The idiotic so called males all want you on watsapp etc right away. Then comes the request for nudes - like seriously?!
The no good women who make it bad for real women reportedly ask for cash, phones etc right off the bat.
This has been going on for so long you would think these asses would have changed tactics by now.
Anyhoo....just venting. Having gotten that off my chest - EXHALE??
