Well so you work? Have friends? It would help if you try to find other forms of interest. Go to libraries, museums or invest in an interest that you have considered and never tried. I am reclusive and don't have anything, but for my personal interests and my granddaughter to look after. I don't watch t.v. much, but she is getting into my CD collection and plays them a lot. Consider this......
Perfection is not a part of the human condition. There is no happily ever after. It takes time, patience, and work to begin and maintain any relationship. A prince may come in the guise of a frog.
You are absolutely correct. I have not experienced anything like this, but I have not shut the door on the possibility. This takes time to happen and too many are in such a hurry to get past that and get into a relationship. I am walking and will not allow anyone to get me to run again.
Perfect blog! My life has been all that and more for the last 5 yrs. It has been a journey indeed. I would not change a thing as it has made me who I am today.
Without reading your profile may I suggest that you think outside the box about who you want to be with. When you restrict what you want to see in someone you set yourself up for loneliness.
Head games were never my forte and I have no patience for the sport. I truly wonder what love is. People talk the talk, but can't walk the walk. So many are looking for someone who does not exist......perfection. We all have flaws and lives that aren't accepted by the majority. I hope that one day someone can show me what love is.
With the age of dating sites comes expectations of easy relationships. Many sites provide tests for compatibility to make dating and seeking a relationship a sure thing. No one has to really work at it any longer when the sites take care of it all for you.
As you may have expected some will make jokes about being bipolar, but I have bipolar l disorder. I have been this way since I was a kid and for years no one could figure that out. I am alone, raising my granddaughter and manage on my own. Counseling helped put me together along with the meds. I won't bite unless someone else bites me first. No we are not repairable, but it sets us apart from others until we get together with others like ourselves and see that we are not out of the loop as others would have us believe. Thank you for this post.
This is a new twist to the men leaving for another woman. I am so sorry for you anyway because it hurts no matter what. Your idea of a first date sounds nice. Best of luck finding someone close to you.
Success anymore is about how much money you can make and how much you can have to show for it. I am with Ralph Emerson Waldo as I choose to live life simply.
I didn't get tough by being afraid of everything. Truth is I am not afraid period. Maybe that is good or bad, but I view life with the eye of the tiger.
I can remember his tv show when I was a kid when he wore what would be considered exercise tights of the day. I do have one of his juicers that my mother sent to me, but have never tried it. Maybe there was a reason I never found the right time to use it. I think that he still touched a lot of lives with his ideas about healthy living.
If anyone can get the departed souls in shape it would be Jack.
Although I am not considered "elderly" I do empathize as I get so many emailing me looking for love who are younger than my own sons. In spite of this I choose not to hide, but be out in the open and politely decline their offers. As for looking for anything, I just go with the flow and don't look for or expect anything. I just am.
I can certainly appreciate a sweet guy, the problem is in coming across one. Most guys I have encountered aren't willing to accept me for who I am and for my life's situation. Sure I have received some nice emails, but then they drop out of sight after a few emails. So I just am going with the flow and whatever happens, happens or not. Hang in there and you may be surprised by what could happen to you.
I have always marched to the beat of a different drummer. I suppose this is why I like my own company. No one else dares come near and for those who do, they never stay long.
I already have. I take one day at a time, put the past in the past and allow myself to be be open new opportunities. If you don't allow someone in you may miss out on a great thing.
Any break up effects us mentally. As devastating as that can be you need to maintain self worth, allow time to heal as rebounds can occur during this time. Remember that this relationship was not meant to be and that in time love will find its way back to you. If a deep depression occurs, do not feel ashamed to seek professional help. You are not the only who has been effected this way.
I totally agree. It is not whether or not you experience big occurrences, but the small ones that can stop your heart. Unfortunately too many take these for granted.
I get to play Santa Claus again this year for my granddaughter. It is such a blast to watch her open her gifts. As for the New Year I can only hope for the best. Since her birthday is New Year's Day we get a good start at a good year. Merry Christmas!
Aside from the religious aspects, this is the one day that many show good will towards others. For children it is the Santa Clause effect. I get to be Santa again for my granddaughter. It is a time to bring families together who may have been estranged.
This Christmas I am making a dinner not just for my granddaughter and myself, but also for her father, his girlfriend and her mother. Granted this is more than I planned on, but I will show good will towards them by accepting the added guests. This is after all a time for giving and not receiving.
