sara1965: To find the right person? Are we being too fussy?
British astronomers say they have discovered a phenomenon which was previously thought to be impossible - planets that are not bound to any star, but roam free through cosmos....
I dont think its being fussy we change with age we realise that we can live alone happily being in love is not the be all and end all there are many loves you can fill your life with doesnt have to be romantic..Im starting to resemble a rusty old car the older I get..everytime I cough or splutter my radiator leaks and my exhaust blows out..it would take a hell of a brave man to live with me

i dont think (for me anyway), that its about being 'fussy'. I know what I want, and I know what I DONT want...and for me its mostly about how Im treated by the guy, and about respect. Disrespect is a dealbreaker for me.
Being fussy? No...I know that my needs are important, and that Im 'worth it' (without being conceited about it), and I dont think its 'wrong' that I put my needs up on my own personal pedestal, when wanting to welcome someone into my life...and me walking into his. Of course his needs matter too, Im not saying that at all...but we BOTH need to be happy. If I WASNT mindful of my own needs, yeah I may be in a relationship right now...but would I be happy? I dont think so.
