2intrigued: My fiery is more like a small campfire rather than a bonfire that's for sure. I think I've locked most of my passion away and someone very special is gonna have to find the key to let it out...it won't be easy but well worth the effort if he has the smarts.
We pulled out a huge cedar stump at the camp last Saturday and It was almost burnt in half Sunday. Bonfire Nite C.S. people.
RomancingSting: That is very beautiful Trigs, I have read your post over and over and each time it gets deeper. There is precious hidden treasure in you, and you're right, the man that finds the key will be rewarded beyond believe.
Thank you RS...I guess I let a little passion out with my statement. Yeah, it's in there...peeks out once in awhile during written expression. I'm kinda hoping he's already holding the key and just hasn't figured out who it fits just yet.
LadyLori: Oh wow!! You are going to erupt like a volcano! Trust me, it has happened to me before! Whoever "he" will be, he will be one lucky gent!! hang in there sweet lady-you're time will come!
The volcano is sleeping but god help the man who wakes it.

I know what the key is, I think very few get it, and it really isn't that complicated. So many want it, few have it, even fewer know what it really means or know how to use it and keep it once they have it.

So very true and that's the conundrum in finding and keeping relationships.
Yes, once. At that time I even scared myself. Pure, total, deep, intense, unbridled, sick making, oozing emotional state, from being infatuated. It lasted for a few years (was a very long few years). I haven't been the same since, but I'll take with me: my behavior during that time and have put a fraction of that behavior to good use on dates. Being infatuated is the best and worst feeling to have and having both at the same time, is insanity. I couldn't settle down long enough to act normal when I was around her. Was a total mess. She thought I was insane and so did I.

How refreshing and nice to hear this coming from a man! I understand how that feels like, haha! Thanks for sharing!

That's the funniest post I read in a while. True too!

In response to: I am a very passionate person. I used to try to "reign it in a bit", but it's the way I am, so have learned to just accept it.
I truly think I have scared a few men off - not sure if they found it too overwhelming or maybe intimidating? I realize not everyone allows themselves, or possesses, the same volume of passion, so I'm sometimes left frustrated.
Have any of you ever experienced someone who's passion took you aback a bit, or possess a high level of passion yourselves, and might have scared someone away?
Any insight and/or comments would be appreciated. Thank you!
I can't say that I've scared someone away by being too passionate. I tend to be the one who runs away It's an interesting subject. As funny as Cud's post is, when I encounter someone who is infatuated, I avoid them.. sounds weird, but I know how nutty people can get when they're infatuated and I don't want to encourage nutty behavior. I'm more taken to people who know how to ration their enthusiasm. Just my personal preference. :-)

Very understandable & I know several ladies who are like you that way. And though you're opposite of me, I can still understand. That's why I never get too upset if someone can't "handle me", as each person has their own limits, etc... Thanks for sharing!
