To Have Loved, or Not Loved At All (58)
freesparrowHarlingen, Texas USA10 Threads 1 Polls 1,162 PostsI want to find love, but I think I am looking in all the wrong places.
time4fun4u: Personally i have never been in love.However,i would love to find a woman who would love me the same way as i would love her.
When i see people who are obviously in love,i do feel i am missing out.
What i wont do is force it,just so i am not on my own.

A_Non_A_Moose: Okay, that sounded sort of weird,...what I meant to say was that I consider love to be so very worth pursuing, even if the possibility that I could get hurt exists.
Sort of like a breakaway in hockey where you can win the game,....the feeling you get by scoring is so worth it, despite the risk of getting completely creamed and hospitalized by that huge defenceman you don't see coming!

Then again,..sometimes you do know the outcome,...and I have no intentions of missing or losing what I have already found
,...and by the way,...I only play ice hockey!

well...I'm not bad on skates!
right - let's hope no one loses - that truly is a loving way!

Good to know,...for winter is not far off,...and all to soon the time for ice draws near,....and yes,...I am of the ilk these days that I have in no way lost and have only gained! I am actually possessed of a permanent grin
these days,....
and yes,...that means I am NOT paying as much attention as I should be and with a quick stick lift you could probably steal the puck away from me,...but hey,... I have already won the game!A_Non_A_Moose: Good to know,...for winter is not far off,...and all to soon the time for ice draws near,....and yes,...I am of the ilk these days that I have in no way lost and have only gained!

glad to hear things are going well for you! I am looking forward to catching some Columbus Bluejackets action this winter!!
Love.......ah sweet love...flowers, music softly playing in the background, eyes that see only the one......ahhhhh sweet love. Mouth drooling, hands grabbing, sounds of "oh god" "yes, yes".........CHOCOLATE...CHOCOLATE....I WANT MORE CHOCOLATE.............ahahahahahaha
I love the song by J Geills "Love Stinks", that about sums up the end of my 25 year marriage. All of the good was not worth the pain while we were still married and he found someone else and worse. I know I can't change history, but if I could, I would have never married him because was not worth it.
But I almost have to thank him for what he did, because I became so much stronger and independent because of it.
He already has someone new that he said he told her about what he had done to me. Well, good luck, honey.
I still believe in love, but not the one above. For me to try it again, I would have to be silly in love but also realistic about if it would last.

Kittt: I would love to be in loved and loved by a man the way I would love him! I believe I am much happier when I feel that I am loved and appreciated and wanted and needed! I dislike the lonely feeling I have all the time because I have no one special in my life - that wonderful blissful feeling that you mean something to a man!
I really think I have never fully been in love before and now I want to find him and show him how much I have to give. When I read from others who are in love or see happy couples, I feel that I really am missing out on something fabulous and I want to find that!

what a beautiful post Kitt! I love how you are so open to share these feelings! I also wish to be in love again. That's why most of us are here I think! Usually we find what we seek. I think it takes a little longer as we age because we become so cautious about repeating past mistakes....at that is mt observation based on what I read in here and based on my own experience. But I definitely vote to have loved regardless of the outcome! Much better!
"A good love is delicious, just like chocolate, you can never get enough"
Singlelisious: "A good love is delicious, just like chocolate, you can never get enough"
true enough! I agree - just looking for it to be my turn soon!!!! 
buckeye1332: I have been in love twice, and was devastated both times. Being in love is the greatest feeling in the world, and losing it is the worst feeling ever. Even with the risk of great pain, I continue searching for love that will last.
terbear57: Is it better to have Loved,and lost. then never loved at all
Would you love again for the man/women you hope to meet someday
Love and my experiences of it have certainly been the range of emotions, feelings, thoughts and actions ....... would I pass it by again because of past experiences - NO, indeed not, for the opportunity to share even a moment is worth it.Would you love again for the man/women you hope to meet someday

I'm kinda in the thinking that you are Dobe. I think it depends on what you lost when the relationship ended. If all you lost was emotional love, then life goes on but if you lost $$$$$$$$, then it's a whole different ballgame so I would have to say, I would rather not have loved him.
I won't thank him for what he did but it did teach me to be cautious, not to be so generous and not to fall for the words "I love you".
I believe in love for other people. You can't love without trust and I'm not in the trusting nature anymore.
The greatest love of all is the love of your children.

Interesting but a common enough take on this type of situation. For myself, it has/ was never the money, ever, but the emotional pain and loss. Life goes on regardless money always comes back faster than emotions can heal...if ever...

I'm not talking about dinner money. He got 60K outta me. That's hard to replace especially since I lost my job last year.
Before he came into my life the emotional pain in a breakup was painful but when you are taken for a lot of money that puts a different light on it. True life goes on, but if you were walking in my shoes you might have a different attitude. Everybody's circumstances are different. I don't think about it except when a thread comes up and I offer my opinion like now. Other then that, the problem is in the past with lost baggage..
that takes it from heartbreak to white collar crime
he belongs in the pit
...just sayin

Well, I didn't lose that much money; but I did support my ex-boyfriend which as quite a drain on me and then lost my job too. I was really struggling for a while until I found another job; although low paying. I agree with what you say though that others need to walk in your shoes and would think differently.
Probably never having loved at all would save a lot of heartache but just think of all the experiences and adventures one would have missed out on.....
There is nothing to compare with experiencing all facets of life, good and bad. We learn from it (hopefully) and we glean something from it, don't we?
We'd be rather numb otherwise, wouldn't we?

Actually; after all the horrible relationships I have been; I am completely numb.
Its all good as I have lots of other things in life to focus on; one being able to volunteer my time to help others. Guess things could be worse.

I agree and I hope you find love again
