Someone is trying to take your place

I met someone new
He seems nice
He makes me laugh
He wants to take your place

I am enjoying our time
Together

As we get to know each other
We are having fun

We are totally at ease
with each other
I can see
he is
trying to take your place

recently
He surprised me with his
Thoughtfulness
It made me smile

I can't say if he will
Succeed
But I do know that
He is trying to take
Your place
In my heart

Hi DC,

Hi Bajanshay

If only we could know in advance what the fates have in store, and whether the grass is indeed greener on the other side. Of course, the future isn't ours to know, thus we have to rely on instinct, intuition and experience (but not necessarily in that order).

Good luck in your pursuit of the holy grail, I know from experience just how elusive it can be...

Best wishes

Bill

hi sharon, it's always good to see you!

no one can really take the place of another; he can only occupy a space within our heart, if we're open.

if you're open to that, let the new guy know so he won't have to 'try' to do anything... he can simply relax into being himself, with you

Hi Beautiful,
How are you?
This is so true as only one has the special place in my heart although we are apart.

With this other guy I was living in the moment and enjoying our time together. He made me laugh which I needed at that time. He knows there is someone else but he is making his own case.
Hope all is well!

Shay my friend it's so nice to feel the day when we can truly accept that moving on times of our lives.

I can feel your mixed feelings of still hanging on to the old memories but believe me, the new ones are going to be just as fun. Such is life.
Take care my friend.

If things remain stagnant its best that you create new memories and yet still be glad with the ones that you made in the past. All the best with the new journey with this new guy Shay. Always
