Would you describe yourselves as emotionally stable? I see alot of these threads asking for confirmation that the people are attractive, or threads stating that they are down, threads that ask why places like this do not work.

Do potential partners prefer a person who is emotionally stable?

I see so many people who are alone and clearly want to meet a person, yet they seem to find it impossible to meet a person. And I would describe them as completely emotionally intelligent and stable. From their words alone. I am musing today, and thought I would ask you lot, your thoughts.

I would say I am personaly very stable emotionaly.
But at the same time I am human and get lonely like every one else.

Lonelyness is part of my job as a soldier.

Its like any thing else, It is what you make of it.

Hi there, yes, loneliness is something that emotionally stable people feel, although some would see loneliness as a downfall. I have seen that happen.

Hello Gussi, not often we see you in these parts? How does the Military teach you to cope with loneliness?

You learn to be thankful for your next meal, the man to the left and right side of you is your suppoert system because both of you are going through the same thing, thats why a soldiers bond is so strong.

I have never served with G but we have that bond of soldiers.

Its a unspoken bond that every soldier shares.

Mmm...i'm sure not going to deep into this thread...might just add a couple of things...most of your "lonely people out there are in general very independant and thus emotionally very stable. Usually they are not in need of anyone to help them cope. They might experience 90% independance and 10% loneliness at times...but what weighs heavier, one might ask? Then of course one has to ask yourself what is loneliness? Is it an emotional side of a human which can be controlled, which some is capable to supress/control?. If it is an emotion, which i believe, then it is contollable, as with any emotional issue.confused

Hi, I can appreciate all of that, but some people are not able to cope with that, so whilst it may be good emotionally for one person then it may be quite damaging for another. The bond you speak about I have heard about before, much like a bond with any group of people who have common ground.

But I am describing emotional stability within a person, be them a soldier, a tinker, a tailor, a candlestick maker, stablility within the mind is something that once achieved can then make all the other areas in life much easier to achieve.

Ups and downs here but i'm basically stable since i try to understand my feelings well. I always ask myself: "why am i sad,bossy, irritated,too relaxed today?". This definitely helps to realise that i need to sort that out or try to occupy myself with things that will relax my stress at the time. Sometimes i don't want to relax and i know i don't want to relax. It's like choosing between breaking a glass and take a walk...when it's cold, i'd rather break a glass.
I had unstable partners, depressive maniac, those a had to play mother most of the time...where my energy was sucked until the end. There are women that have vocation for it, not me. I need an active man who tries to help us with positive atittude. At least someone who is there to try and have his own positive atittude and not constantly suck my energy.
Sorrysigh

Oh god, why did I know you would find your way in here... wink

I agree, that emotionally stable individuals are able to cope on their own, that they can work through their own difficulties, but also a strong person can be one who does ask for help. And not in a needy way, just some help with negotiating their way through. That does not make them unstable.

Hey Marki, nice to see you, especially back home. So that something that is missing, will not make you unstable, will it? It is human nature, to want and need, especially a partner, some people will often say that they want and do not need a partner, I like having a person in my life, I need another to wake up with in my life and say good morning to, that does not make me unstable, it just makes me a person that is inter dependant with my partner, knowing he is there if I need him, but knowing that I can cope alone if he is not there.

You made a mistake, crumbs, you are young, I have made hundreds and you survived it and learnt from it. And as for growing up, why the rush? I am 40 and still growing up...

Why the apology Cris? I get your post, but I am struggling why you feel it necessary to apologise!
