I've done it my daughter's entire life. You have to be selfless and sacrifice if you want to raise your children right. It's not hard to do when you know the outcome is so wonderful.
I continued to "window shop" while chatting with potential bfs until the last one. The talks & chats I had with him made me realize we would end up exclusive, so I put all my time and energy into getting to know him, and I was right, we are now exclusive. I believe you will know if you need to continue "window shopping" with every potential mate. And I see no reason to leave CS. You guys are great fun and have a lot of insightful opinions to share.
OMG yes. I'm still considered the "baby" in the family. Unable to make rational decisions on my own. It gets so frigging old. Hello, adult here... You are not paying my bills, raising my child, and you never have, so shut up.
OK, feel better now. Thanks froggy for giving me this avenue to vent.
I agree totally with you flower. It's not the amount of time, it is the amount of heart and soul he/she gives. If I feel like I am getting 100% from the other person, than I personally think he is entitled to 100% of me and if I can't give 100% than I back off.
I don't think the people on this site are intentionally bashing him. I believe they know what they are talking about and are being nice enough to share it with you so nothing bad happens to you. We would all like someone to tell us how perfect we are, but not a stranger... Just be careful. And as was asked earlier in the post, no whining when his "perfect" castle collapses on you.
I am assuming this is a personal meeting, since why they are meeting has not been answered, so I think that he should respect their beliefs and traditions. If he cannot, than why is he interested in meeting Muslim women??? We are all quite aware of their use of the veil.
Ok, just to clarify for the sake of argument, I agreed to his first statement about knowing, not his as usual catty remark about him liking her. But I think Bailey knew what I meant.
I agree with Nipper here. It wasn't "immediately", but it was a lot sooner than 4 months with my new guy when I felt he was the one. We still aren't expecting the other to commit "100% forever today", but I'm sure we will end up doing just that when the time is right for both of us.
Well had I known that was his thoughts, I would have. But because we had discussed the whole marriage thing and my reluctance to commit to soon way before this, I had no idea that was a factor.
My last boyfriend dumped me because I wouldn't commit "forever" to him after 4 months... That's exactly what he said. After some heart felt pain of being rejected, I met someone else. I wrote him an email thanking him for realizing he wasn't the "one" for me and setting me free. Most of the time they are not the person for you and just don't want to admit it (me). Maybe he has realized it and wants to be the one to do the leaving...??? Just my thoughts. Good Luck.
RE: Ever Got Drunk And Woke Up With Someone You Can't Believe You Slept With?
No. Never been that drunk, thank goodness.
