HAS YOUR PAST RELATIONSHIPS MADE YOU WISER OR MORE SKEPTICAL WHEN ENTERING A NEW RELATIONSHIP? (128)
Isabella129533 Threads 406 PostsI would say mine has defenetely made me skeptical and cautious. I look for reasons not to go ahead first instead of the positive reasons to go ahead with things. Definately a quality I need to work on changing.

Definately wiser and stronger. I don't know if it's age or wisdom, but i don't put up with so much crap now and i'm more vocal as to what i want and if i'm not happy with the way things are going. I put my all in every relationship and try not to hold back so if it doesn't work out i know it wasn't because of me not giving my 100%.

Wiser and more skeptical. Enough to counterbalance
the feelings of being more desperate, I hope!

Well I thought I had become smarter but now I wonder this weekend I recieved to so called slaps in the face not literally but may as well of been. The first was someone I started caring for deeply that had gotten up and just vanished had sent me a flower after I had finally put him behind me I thought and now well it is all stirred up again. I am such a loser when it comes to this stuff LOL.
The second is another friend I met on a site and he was only wanting friendship and that is all we could be so I excepted that we had an argument ended the friendship found our way back as friends and I encouraged him to put past in past move ahead with life and be happy not alone forever. He left word on msn today that he now has a girlfriend. I am happy for him but bitter as well for me.
Relationships well I have learnt they suck. It is alot of work and I really have no idea if it pays off or not.

Definetely wiser and not so gullible. But won't know for sure if I never date...LOL...Been married for 21 years and getting ready to divorce. It has been a long time since I have dated. I also need to work on being skeptical myself. Won't fall for the lines and would make sure that the other person is not in a relationship. I don't ever want to be responsible for hurting other innocent people.

Hmm..wiser and more skeptical. I am not so impressed so easily, nor do I try to be what I am not to impress them anymore. I married my first husband at 18 just because he looked cute in white. That definitely wouldn't happen now, lol

I will definately say they have made me MUCH more skeptical! My last one hit really hard and hurt to the core. I now have doubt in my ability to choose a mate and great fear in getting hurt. That is now why I am only looking for a companion who wants to be close friends.

Be just wise enough and just skeptical enough, but
not too wise or too skeptical. I have too lovely
cousins who will never marry. They were two sensitive
to the dangers of relationships and the flaws in every
man they met, and kept hoping for someone better, who
didn't come, until they were in their forties and knew
he wasn't going to. Skepticism can itself be a mistake.
Even wisdom can be a mistake. Sometime you need to be
foolish for a while, so you can have a life.

Hmmm... Maybe that's why I'm still single!
Nah, it's probably because I have more to lose, and won't take the risks I might have taken in my youth. Not to mention the beauty I once had - it sure improved the options by increasing the possibilities. All gone now, at the ripe old age of 39, and I may end up like your cousins.
Unless I meet someone terribly rich and wonderfully clever who is willing to front me about 1/4 mil - for that, I'd take a chance.
