Then I crash open a bottle of wine, sit, reflect and learn about my relationships.

Do you know that all single people have a 100% track record of failure.

Good statistic that I think.

Hi all...



Hi Sommerauer!

Not sure what you mean by 100% track record of failure - do you mean past relationships?

Lagoona22: Yes it is.....if you're going to do something, at least do it well...100% success-rate is full-marks in my book...maybe we can excel at being single?...can you be successful being single??...Is there a point to being single, or is the success of your life dependent on the presence of someone else being there?...



Successful at being single? Of course!

Especially if you have never had a relationship yet... I recently needed to get an extract from the tax authorities in order to prove civil status, etc, and my son (who is under 15) was also on this piece of important bureaucracy paper - and he was noted as being 'single'!

Very true! And friends and just contact with other people makes all the difference!

Hi all...

Some people who are single do not have 100% track record failure....

And some people who are a couple do have 100% track record failure and they've sold out their hopes, dreams, lives..... for other stuff..... imo, of course.....

But like Nina, maybe I've misunderstood where you're coming from.

Also relationships are a part of life and life is not about failure, the way I see it. We live and learn.
And none of us is perfect..... only human, etc.....

I think, I meant to say 100% success rate.

(Note to oneself, to tick myself off)

I agree with you, relationships are part of life, I have sat back and reflected and learned from mine, all two of them, a marriage and a relationship with a lovely man, but they broke down and I certainly played my part in those breakdowns.

Having been single for a year, loneliness does creep in sometimes, but then I look at how I can utilise my time, I set up my own message board, I moved countries, I learnt a new language.

So, yes, I cry sometimes, but just because I am a believer in having a sob and a sleep.

Ah - now that makes more sense! laugh As long as you learn something from your experiences - even less successful ones - you are bound to benefit and grow from it.

And yes - getting busy is a very good way of beating loneliness, and getting your mind to focus on other things. Take it from me - I'm busy, busy, busy at the moment! Changing countries is also a very good way of combatting down-feelings! grin

Hi Nina

It is definitely a great way to get over loneliness...

Learning and reflecting is a good thing, certainly when our hearts are bruised and we feel so low and miss the times that we shared with previous loved ones.

I think it is important to be able to look back and remember love shared, even when it is hard.

Sommerauer71: My day was nowhere as interesting as yours.

I have lounged in my garden and been on here all day and I am now sloshing after sun balm all over me.

Stick with the wine Rusty, who needs coffee?


Sloshing wine all over you and drinking sun balm -

you're 'weird'!

WELCOME BACK


A gardener? Wazzat?

I did think of writing to my dear friend El presidento 'Gorgeous George' G.W. Bush to see if he had a stash of napalm he could donate to me, but I think he might be too busy right now speaking to his new-found friends in North Korea and Iran.

You know, the only time I can get away with burning my garden back to looking like a nice patch of 'scorched earth' is on 5th November when, in the UK of GB & NI, we have a very cute tradition of burning effigies of an almost national hero called Guy 'who forgot the matches?' Fawkes.........

thanks for the welcome back!

Good question...

Unfortunately once in a while we feel this emotion and whether we like it or not we have to face it.

Some people are quite good in handling it and some people always hit a failing mark....

But what do really need to do about it? Is it an emotion that fades in time or is it something that we have to fix...

I never found a perfect solution for myself but I never feed on the emotion otherwise it will grow and grow...

I try to move by doing something, phoning somebody... be busy! And most of the time psychic myself that I am good, I am okay and I will be happier soon =)

Sometimes I ask myself why do we feel this loneliness? Am I not too young for such emotions, I never had the answer but I never liked the feeling...
