RE: MY HEART IS TRUELY SAD,EYEWOULDBEGOOD'S MOM PASSED AWAY....

oh how sad - my deepest sympathies

Why do 'you' want a relationship?

Im sorry these things have happened to you John - isnt it a shame that we have to be so guarded with our emotions but I think this comes down to that not rushing in stuff and learning to heed the red flags too - its certainly why I have been alone so long, that fear of getting burned again has kept me safe for years now - haha, so much so that Im beginning to think it may be clinical

There are definately people out there who get kicks out of toying with peoples emotions - how flipping sad is that

Why do 'you' want a relationship?

come to think of it Gra, we never have had a cross word have we Thank You

Why do 'you' want a relationship?

Thanks Golfer, thats why I did the thread, I thought that maybe between us all we could come up with something viable

I think so far we have; ditch the baggage, be truthful and start out as friends - seems like good stuff to me

Why do 'you' want a relationship?

Hiya Our Kid I sincerely hope you get all of the above and more

Thanks for the comp too - I got lost of sleep for the last few years

Why do 'you' want a relationship?

Hiya Gra - shucks, you guessed

Why do 'you' want a relationship?

Hi Slowmover

you ask a couple of good questions there and while I dont profess to have any answers Im sort of moving around to saying its about expectations and starting points - if I think something is a lie I see it as a red flag and cant get beyond it, certainly give no more of myself till I understand, everything gets put on hold if i see a red flag and I need clarification.

I have come out of relationships in the past without a shred of self worth, its taken a lot to find the courage to have stood on my own feet for so long and oftentimes the loneliness was roaring out of me like a river in full spate (for want of a better analogy haha) but.......... lies - definately dont ignore them, we are worth so much more than false premise's

I think its like Nuala said earlier, "start with friendship" and take it from there - I dont expect to be lied to by anybody i would choose to call 'friend' let alone 'partner'

RE: Waking in the Night

Nice One again BB - Thanks

Theres nothing quite so safe feeling is there as burrowing down in the sheets when the night feels dark around us

Why do 'you' want a relationship?

Thanks BB

I reckon its that 'headless chicken thing' which causes so much trouble - rushing into a relationship for the sake of not being alone is, in my book such a no no

I too am happy to be alone for now. I would love nothing more than to share who I am within a loving relationship, to experience that communion of souls stuff but I am happy to wait it out in the knowledge that its better to be alone on my own than alone in some kind of ordeal of a relationship

Why do 'you' want a relationship?

this is kinda what I was thinking too Hugz, it isnt fair to try moving on before sorting yr baggage out - and that also stresses the importance of being freinds in the first place and not rushing in I guess

Why do 'you' want a relationship?

Yes, I agree, nomindgames - keep it positive and it'll happen when the time is right

Why do 'you' want a relationship?

Same here Heather, 12 yrs single - I just got tired of the games people play and think I maybe got a bit overprotective of my vulnerabilities

ooooh I do hope you have found that someone special

Why do 'you' want a relationship?

Oh Nuala, what can I say

I hope you like your anniversary thread

I think you have hit the proverbial nail on the head there with your statement of "so I offered him my friendship first"

Happy Anniversary to Nuala and Jimbhoy

Im so happy for you two and reckon there may just be a few more replies to this thread - hahaha


Happy Anniversary !!!!!

RE: ladies advice please.

hahaha - chocolates and flowers with a bit of humble pie may work

RE: Has anybody ever lied to you ?...whats the greatest lie ever told AS FAR AS YOU'RE CONCERNED ?

Yep, I agree with you Heather

I always think that actions speak far louder than words.

I also think it sad that when people fall out of love that it causes such a lot of pain - it doesnt mean that the 'I love you' was a lie all along but its one heck of a difficult situation when people outgrow each other

Why do 'you' want a relationship?

What's the reason that people run like headless chickens in pursuit of somebody else to make their life complete. Why is it that some peole are convinced that they have to be in a relationship to feel 'whole' or that there is maybe something wrong with being long term single.

Are there right and wrong reasons for wanting to be in a realtionship - should a new partner complete an already fulfilled life or or step in and help with the fulfillment stuff - oh, just one more thing - past hurts and moving on, is it fair to be looking for another relationship when we still harbour unresoled issues - to me, we learn something from every single person or interraction we ever experience so a love that is over is a treasure still, but of the past, not the future.

I know that its great to discover this stuff with a partner but whats the level of personal responsibility you have/need to get sorted before you feel 'fair' in committing to another person

How can we be complete before moving on - or is that a contradiction in terms

RE: How many of you believe in...

I dont know what or where the connections are but I remember doing something similar with my childrens dad - I just knew he was out there being unfaithful (cos he was a man tart haha) it was like a tearing of the bonds that I thought we shared

RE: SPYING, CURIOUS partner

yep, same here

If I am going to trust a person enough to be having a relationship then its going to be total trust and honesty - and if they misuse that trust, I will deal with that too, besides, Im a simple soul and my friends and kids already know my passwords etc - no problems

RE: ;-).....JUST WANNA SAY

No worries I think if you didnt reply I would ask nicely why or assume it was an oversight anyway and send another

RE: How many of you believe in...

I'll look forward to it and meanwhile I will play on my good friend Google - have fun

RE: How many of you believe in...

There was a special telepathy between this guy and I, somebody took a photo and I have it, we are both say staring into the sky, he was french, I spoke no french - it was a special moment. I think it was because I recognised his spirituality and at that time was just discovering these things - maybe it was a bit of hero worship - but in some inexplicable way, Jaques became a part of my life that day - 30 years ago hahaha
