Very true but the alternative is to go in your house close the door and lock it then throw away the key because in essence if you do not put yourself out there to some degree you will have no life. I always trust from the beginning and if a friendship works out GREAT but if the person turns out to not be trustworthy then it is their loss in my opinion

online , "real life" same chances either way. Just because you can see, touch them doesnt make them anymore trustworthy and better.Especially when it is someone you met on line and there are vast distances involved....

Yes it is very tiring...... but what about the chance that the first person you shy away from and pass on getting to know them might just be your prince charming are you willing to risk the chance of meeting the answer to all your dreams?

prince charming sorry this is more friendship actually. Im just contemplating the worthiness of putting yourself out there to people. having to deal with such a situation right now of major disappoint. in time I'll be back to my normal love everyone self, just with a few more bricks put on that "wall"
Every relationship starts with friendship or should at least .... right?

I guess ya can never know for sure 100%....
But I would back myself to make better judgements if I can see and "feel" that person...
There sense of values and the way relate to family and friends....
But sometimes, when you give your trust and faith to someone, and they just discard it, break the faith you had in them, ...there is no way back....
We carry on seeking real and true friends, or lovers...

Had that happen to me-- more than once, so obviously I'm a glutton for punishment.
Is it worth it? No
Will I do it again? Yes

I could not agree more with you that friendship is essential to having any chance at a lasting relationship..... And yes the prince thing is kind of sappy but hey my glass is half full because smiles attract more people than frowns

I refuse to set myself up for disappointment.
My mother always said expect nothing, get nothing.
If I expect nothing, everything else is a gift.
JMHO

Whatever you disclose to an individual say very little just to see if it comes back to you through someone such as a friend.
I hope it helps.------ This thread is Archived ------
