Tulefel: Our “baggage” has made us to what we are now. How can there be “no baggage”?

And I agree, it’s a cliché, one of many that people use here and else where, without explaining what they mean.

I would like to meet a man with some baggage, as few books he has read, few journeys he has made… one and another failure he has experienced and then decided not to repeat…



I completely agree, although I do not describe it as that, to me it is life.

hollandgirl: I want to find back what I have lost. I miss the closeness of a loving relationship.
I know what I want/need and I won't settle for less.
I know I will find that special one as he is out there somewhere.


Baggage is who we have become.

Headgames are for children.

Your positivity is quite wonderful Jenny,
I'm sure you will find someone to share you life with you again.

Good luck...........wave devil

princess49503: "no baggage, no headgames please" is man talk for "I can dish it out but I can't take it"


thumbs up thumbs up .thumbs up

YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The men who indicate "no baggage, no headgames" almost always have the most baggage and play the most headgames. There may be an occasional exception, but this is the general rule.

Did you actually read my post before you misinterpreted it?

I am NOT saying all, or even most, men play headgames and have tons of baggage. I AM saying that the men who post such things in their profiles are usually bitter and have an unhealthy level of baggage/unfinished business from their past.

The same likely applies to women's profiles, but given my lack of experience with dating women, I will speak from only my personal experience.

Yes, I read it and interpreted it as you meant it: from a males perspective, it was my intention to inform you that I have observed the same phenomenon in womens profiles...ie: both sides of the gender line.

There really *isnt* much difference between men & women...

Mmmkay?

hollandgirl: Number one do people who say these things in their profile, have had such bad experiences that make them say this?
It is very negative and unrealistic.
I lost a loving husband in January 2005, the odd times I find myself cry for just a moment, does this mean I have bagage?

No headgames please. I wonder if those who engage in this are even aware of doing so.
I came to this forum to sincerely find a new relationship.
I believe in honesty and loyalty, I need to trust, without this there is nothing!
My trinity is Trust, Respect and Giving, (of one self)
(Read my profile for the rest)
I could say a lot more but will rest my case for now.
Jenny



I think everyone has baggage...if not then the person can't have lived and experienced much...it's whether you have dealt with that baggage or not that makes all the difference....a person expecting no baggage at all...is likely a person who has never dealt with any of theirs but just pushed it to the side waiting for it to rear it's ugly head at a later time...most likely in a new relationship!!!!!!!!!


As for head-games...well those are just for the immature....probably the ones who still have lots of luggage floating out there in "I pushed it away so it's dealt with" land!!!!!!!!!


wink roll eyes uh oh dunno laugh

Bagage and head games? Everyone has some so called bagage, Anyone who says they don't have it is a liar and plays headgame!
I have bagage and I will tell you what it is. My parents died and I never got over it completely, both of cancer. And I never got over loosing them. I was married and abused severly for a long time. I fought to get out of that situation, but it left some pretty nasty scars. I met a man fell in love was engaged to be married. Got pregnant lost the baby, and was told I had cancer just like my mom. I fought the cancer but it left me not able to have kids. My fiance loved kids had none. I left so he could meet someone who could have kids. He did! Now I ask you with all this bagage I carry in my heart do you not think that finding love would help resolve some of my bagage? Do you not think that finding someone to love would help me to move on with my life? Give me a reason to be happy again? Do you not think that carring that bagage has not made me a stonger person? Head Games! mine not telling you of the bagage I carry because you dont want bagage.
I personally want someone with bagage, so that I know one he has delt with life, two he is a stronger person for it. And three I would like to be the person that gives him reason to shed the bagage and move on to a happier life.

"Baggage" is not a suitable terminology to be using......it is called a history and we all have lived and can look back at how we lived and correct any wrongs that we have made......Baggage makes us sound like we are all Donkeys or something...... conversing

I like the explainations given here.
How about asking for resume's? lol
Yes it is how we deal with the past that is important.
My mariage was good so no bitterness for that I am grateful.

Yes I too believe that those who "demand" no bagage please have
the wrong and unrealistic attitude.


Well I am ready, able and willing to meet my new love.
I will be looking for him until he finds me!

Ah Jen, you will find each other.

It is the name 'baggage' it is just not pleasant, why can't people say 'past?'

We all have one, we are over the age of consent, people make it difficult.

Baggage

I wish I had been born today,
so's I could have new toys for play.
No broken heart inside of me,
no bills to pay and torture me.
knowing headgames are the norm,
might loose my head and just reform.

House to clean,
food to buy,
life's just baggage,
live or die.

My guts too big,
my eyes are blue.
my pants' wrong color ,
if you dissapprove,
go get screwed.

Three happy kids who run and play,
I get re-born most everyday.
A home that I can call my own,
life's my baggage,
my fart's my own.

I go along my merry way,
greeting strangers along the way.
Adding baggage each step I take.
I shrug it off and take the day.

Tom Diamond
yay

Yes summer that sounds so much nicer past, instead of bagage.
And yes how have you delt with the past that is the question.
Who coined that word anyway.
Frankly when I read these kind of profiles I ignore them.

From my profile;
Like to meet someone who knows what he wants and is smart
enough to recognize it when he does. etc. etc.teddybear

Our life's experiences make us the people we are today but the key is just as you said to not carry them on your sleeve.

I am so sorry for your loss and will think of you on the 24th and wish you well.
