Far Away Love and Delusion on CS. (17)
gentlepawsAny town, Ontario Canada1,019 Threads 13 Polls 9,583 PostsWhy do people so far away seem to be so inviting ? Is it because we feel the safety factor ? Hey, we can mail, call, flirt and all without real commitment. Our romanticism fills in the rest. Been there, done that, yet I am still tempted. Canada has just as many beautiful women as the US., and Britain, ( the two main contributors) yet I seem to be attracted to those far away. Self delusion ? At times, I think so.

Not only possibe, but highly probable. Hideing behind a computer screen is so much easier than risking..
But then senile old men like me, dearly love to toss out the "what if's" every now & then. It is always interesting to see what people are really made of..
Here's to you Paws..

you might be onto something here Leo..
I kind of like the fact that I can't be harmed as easily....it is easier to flirt and chat with someone you haven't met in person sometimes...
Don't get me wrong...I want to find someone who wants to spend a lifetime with me...I am just afraid that I will never find that kind of love...it feels safer to chat with someone farther away....
I guess I am a little chicken to put myself out there to be hurt again...the wounds are still not healed yet...

You hit it on the head Paws...(in my view). Oddly though, there's a person or two I'd love to meet w/no romantic intent...only as a friend.
Just to spend a day with the person~~~

I understand HJ...I just am trying to be careful....the few times I have taken a risk in the last several months....I have been burned...you can only take so much heat before you keep your hand out of the fire....
I am not saying that I will never put myself out there again...I just think it is better to allow myself to heal a little bit....I still flirt and have fun in the forums...but I am not ready to jump into anything yet....
Does that make since????

I think it's only as delusional as you make it...If you never plan to take a chance and act on any of those attractions then yeah I suppose...We can't choose who we are attracted to or what country they happen to live in...BUT we can put up soooooooo many roadblocks for ourselves when it somes to love...including distance...that maybe we are better off with the delusion...the safety lies in never having to decide to act...NOT in where the person happens to be from!!!!!!!

Agreed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You are so right.

I think taking chances is good and usually worth it in the end. Just put a lil trust in someone and you can be well rewarded. To find a friend and someone to laugh with...so simple!
for the one who took the chance!

Yes it is...If you're willing to open yourself up to chance...it's too easy to make exscuses why we can't or why it's impossible...It's us who makes it difficult!!!!!!!!!

I have thought about this a lot and come to the conclusion it is just "sods law" that I seem to click on a higher level with people miles away.
It's nothing to do with any safety nets.. If the one I'm really into was nearer we would have definitely met.
But, for now it has to remain just an impractical dream
but I "never say never" ...

I enjoy talking (typing?) with people in a country other than Southern California.
The absence of that delusion is nothing at all. I'll take a delusion now and then...

I'm gonna totally agree with you.
Anyone willing to take the risk, unblock those roadblocks and really "act"? It does take two people to be willing in that sort of adventure and life IS a nice adventure.
