plainlyjune: hi MP!

It's a tricky bit. i myself am a 1 or 2 sentence kind of mail writer. I never write long mails. i like chats better for getting to know each other. More "real time". But my mails are well meant and sincere so i CAN'T say he was insincere about you and was probably just inviting you to the trip as an option. He might have felt a connection to maintain communication and invite you for some time together.

He was probably surprised when you blew him off with a goodluck. And since you didn't feel a connection at all, given his style doesn't work on you, so just say it like it is. Perhaps, tell him you feel it's too early to go hopping away on a trip with him and would rather know more about him prior to such activity.


hey pj wave

how ya doin' sweetpea hug

yes your right in saying we can't say he was or wasn't insincere... for me it was more a case of not enough via his emails... I even asked if he could go back and respond to one of my emails as he didn't really do that when he replied back... I like a man to at least acknowledge what I write when he responds... I guess coming from a relationship with a mute for 18 yrs has me treading extra careful to make sure there is communication happening more than I ever required in the past and the short and sweet just didn't sit well with me to go for as much as a coffee let alone a trip...

oh well back to the drawing board it is for me laugh

mindfful: marie its simple as you came to understand

i totally get it

i mean it doesnt matter his motives or if there even were any

communication is a measuring stick for you and has value

i am exactly the same and many a nice guy im sure i missed out on because i desired that type of connecting-that a man have that particular skill set.

IMs and letters were a must for me eventually i found one.

nope

he was raised among sisters alone

partly why hes smart i guessgrin

MP standards are standards they are never wrong
just not always a good fit

people who dont accept the right to have standards
or are offended by a persons standards and boundaries are not healthy people.
we just keep it movin- time is marching on dearie and none of our past has value if we havent learned to develop standards from those past experiences- and how on earth could that be possible-that my pain was for naught?

its not.

to true miss MF... to true kiss bouquet

I hear you girl... standards are healthy and if they don't get it then all I can say is "NEXT" hahahaha!! I ain't compromising that part of me for anyone scold

Can you imagine if this type of behaviour was accepted online?? what would a relationship with him look like down the track?? blues
it's definitely unhealthy to take it so hard as he did and say it was personal sheeeesh!! doh but hey... who am I to judge how others should respond... it is what it is and every choice we make is entirely our own responsibility... all I know is that I'm not in charge of how peeps choose to react... I wonder if he would have preferred that I was backward in coming forward with honesty and let it drag out??... in fact it's these types of reactions that teaches others not to tell them the truth cos they can't handle the truth (a few good men springs to mind lol)... would he have coped with that scenario more so his poor little ego didn't get hurt??... hmmm!! now there's a red flag right there hole

Onwards and upwards for this little chickadee!! dancing cool grin
