'Please do not comment with the intention of just being rude or trollish...please'...Thank You

I keep asking myself if there is a reason to try and start dating again. How often do we look back at the previous relationship and see nothing but mistrust, betrayal, hurt and still find the courage to try again. there had to be good times along the way...right? ...And what about being single for a while; to reclaim who you are or what was changed to share in the company of the one you give you heart to. Sure compromising is part of building a life together with someone...yet after the fall out; can or do you want to give up another piece of you...to find someone? Is being in your mid-40's or any age an obstacle to finding another love? ...and what if you are so damaged...there is no room for you in other peoples lives? Thanks everyone for letting share. Rev@32

p.s. 'asking again...please no rude comments or what nots'. Thanks

You obviously have some hard feelings about the past, which is fine, but they'll hold you back. Past relationships are 80% happy memories even for me and I'm a reasonably negative person.

Hi TattoedMonk

I don't look back at mine and my late husband marriage.It would serve no purpose for anyone to ever look back at an old relationship.It's of my opinion that nothing contaminates a new relationship quicker then bringing old baggage into it.

I don't think its that idealistic rain but I do agree that we would likely get to no baggage but is you have baggage that makes you hate all men or all women...why do you want to date in the first place?...In doing so guess that where that transfers?...Right on to your next partner who doesn't deserve to wear your hate...just because one chooses to drag another person into their crap.....as adults we have to learn to get rid of that which holds us back from a healthy relationship....wave bouquet conversing

No....I was just talking in general...sometimes when I say "you" im talking in general as I was with that post....I understood your post rainy and using hating men or women as an example of baggage that needs to be dealt with before you get in a relationship....wave bouquet

Many people have proven love can come at any age.

Time to put the past to bed. Because realistically no-one wants to pay the price for others wrong doings.

We all have right of love n happiness at any age.
There is love, for everyone who believe it
About past, take lesson from its, the balance keep its as memories that will make us smile n wrinkle our eyes, but not wrinkle our face when we sit alone.
Someday, we will forget the hurt, the reason we cried and who cause us pain
We will finally relize that the secret of being free is not revenge, but letting things unfold in their own way n own time. After all, what matter is not the first, but the last chapter of our life which show how well we ran the race.
So.....smile, laugh, forgive, believe and love all over again.
Worrying doesn't take away tomorrow's troubles, its take away today's peace.
Never give up......Love is there, you only need to believe it and respect its.

Love can happen at any time. I was hurt too but I moved on and am still hopeful I will find the right guy for me. The past has taught me a lot but I don't dwell on it.

Hum? I've just finished reading everybody's posts, and I keep hearing one thing, over and over. "Yes. Love CAN find you, at any age." While I AGREE that's true, I get the feeling that EVERYBODY'S waiting for love to find THEM! Baggage, or no baggage. 15, 53, 582 it DOES matter, you CAN be in love. But, IF you WANT to be in love, DO so! IF you love, then love will be attracted TO you! So just love, EVERYBODY! Some of those people WON'T BE ready for love! And THEY won't love you back! For whatever reason, they're NOT CAPABLE of "love/loving", at that particular time. Don't worry about it. NOT a big thing. But SOME people WILL be ready for love! And IF you love them, you'll find that a LOT of them WILL love you back! NOT all, but you don't WANt "all"! You want love! And love WILL find you, if you just put out love, as your bait! JMO hug cheers thumbs up Good luck to all! teddybear peace
