Jana, I want to be wanted, period. I think if someone says they need me they have deeper issues to deal with. I won't feel more secure in a relationship being needed but if I'm wanted then I will have mire respect for the relationship and her. If she needs me what else or who else does she need?
My oldest daughter loves loves loves horror movies. Her and I would stay up late watching them. It was one our things since her mom and sis don't like them.
I wish I knew how to post songs.im singing jimi hendrixs "remember".
It goes something like... Remember, the mocking bird He use to sing for the sunshine He use to sing so sweet But since my baby left me He ain't sang a tune all day
A beautiful song anyway.i am always singing to myself especially while I'm working.
I've watched my daughters grow and set goals for careers. They are putting so much energy into college and stuff but when I ask them, ok where do you want to work, live and retire they don't have a clue. I ask them when will they have children or if they want to marry. Again no clue. The counselors at school never discuss these issues. They only help them get through school, which is good but they need more planning than that. So many kids get degrees they never use. They never learn how to use the degree.
Maybe its the parents job but our parents didn't teach us. Think how much more successful we all could be in all aspects of our lives if we know where we are going.
Look at the space program in the 60s. We had an end goal of landing on the moon. We solved all the problems in record time. But once we got there then what? The goal was achieved but then everything sputtered.
Just stuff I think about. Thanks for all the replies.
I tend to think backwards in so many instances. I think if you start at the end first like say retirement, decide where you want to end up and in what situation then plan backwards the beginning seems like the easy part instead of the hard part. Its simple problem solving but it takes patience. I think that's what we are missing. Yes we live in a world of instant gratification.
Lana, I use to tell the ex and I've told a few others who say the kids always come first, if you don't take care of yourself you won't be around long to take care of anyone.
Is he that white hair fella that travels? Its been a while since I've had cable.
I love to cook.... And eat.
Haven't done chitterlings yet but its an idea. Had shark and blue marlin recently. Made a bunch and fed the people hanging out at the pool. Every now and then I do that, cook something new gourmet type and feed the neighbors.
Glen, I think when we say we are not arrogant people assume we are lol. I had in my profile how I want a woman who is secure because I've had women get jealous because they tell me I'm too good looking. I really don't think I'm special but I've had these issues all my life so its important to me to find someone to accept me and not let that emotion cause issues.
I admit I am outspoken here but not so much in person. Here I'm sharing thoughts I don't express verbally to often. And I can be over confident but that's because I believe in myself.
Blueeyes, I was thinking about that too. I had written a post about an experience but backed up too far and lost it and didn't feel like writing it again lol.
But I've had plenty of women come on to me and treat me right but my heart just wasn't in it. Now my ex was no beauty queen but I fell in love with her heart.
I don't think there is anyway to say who you will fall for but looks are usually very important. I have thought some women were not very attractive until I got to know them better and they became more attractive but that feeling just wasn't there.
coffee, yeah that was my response too, to use this site until I got to know them better. One of the first did reply and we had a nice talk but I dont think any of the others replied back lol.
Summer, I don't scare easily lol. Seriously though, I guess I would assume they like my profile or picture if they reach out to me so I recommend people try to be more specific. What is it about my profile that got your attention? I don't know.
Itchy it worked for me. Otherwise I would keep reaching out to her. Then she reached out to me after a couple months and it started all over again. I finally told get to stop contacting me because it hurt to much. So far so good.
Having that number in my phone was a constant reminder. Not good.
Delete her email her phone number all trace of her. Hang out with your buddies and take a little time to erase the feelings. They won't go away completely but it gets easier.
