For those who have been repeatedly bitten in the romance department, how many bites does it take to shy away from it all? Just curious

For me it's not realy a number I can nail down. It was building up my whole life. Every woman I have had a serious relationship with hurt me bad. I spent many years as a hermit and shyed away from everyone due to a combonation of my 2nd wife and last girl friend. But I realise I was the fool for shying away. It was their loss and (hopefuly) someone esles gain. teddybear

I´ve never been bitten, well ok when my marriage ended it was very sad, but not what I´d call being bitten, so I blunder on blissfully unaware of the potential pitfalls which may occur. laugh

its not how many times we get knocked down its how many times we get back up

we can at any time choose to stay down and then we may make a new choice later

for me this is my last go

i say that now but who knows

i was alone for about 8 yrs and i mean alone-
i was alone til i was happy
then this man came along and interrupted that but im gettin used to himgrin

if youre sad im sorry

remember the only constant in the universe is change

For me it is like so;

I am the goalkeeper in a soccer game, my objective is to try and stop the other players score a goal. If they do put one past me, then I pick up the ball and boot it forward so that the game resumes. And I try again and again and again to keep my goal posts intact. I do not loose heart and I do not abandon the game. Any body can walk away but I am not any body, I am me.

Keep your chin up guys; it is the only way forward.
thumbs up

Only been dating for 6 months, but can't seem to find the right bite repellant. Guess I just have to toughen my skin even more...
