neither one of you are very old- it is the time for doing what you are doing- genuinely looking and being open to connection
have the visit youll both have more clarity
so much good stuff has been said here true tho-in the end youll be the one in it, or out of it, if that time comes itll be part of your valuable experience and thats what walking our path is about our experiences
its nice to make choices but in the end its our experiences, whether chosen or not-which are valuable (as well as the way we respond to them...)
and i am so glad everyone here is saying age is just a number since i just turned 45 and feel 25...
so chelle? is this what the pondering was recently about moving for job and school? sounds like youd at least know someone when you arrive?
plus maybe your peeps are shocked and sad that you and your child may go far away? usually people react seeming angrily when there are really other feelings in play- maybe keep the visit w/ just the 2 of you?
youre a smart cookie- i dont think anyone here is worried about you girl!
i spose it depends on what a person considers really bad
i havent gone broke had a maniac in my house been part of anything really-that i didnt actively participate in which means sometimes i ignore red flags in favor of misplaced hope
oh well-i am not perfect
i try to remember there are no victims, only volunteers
when i see myself as a victim or get too deep in self pity i dont feel like trying and i know it does not attract.
i kill me is a joke its american i guess it means i make myself laugh
maria you are not posting inappropriately or in any violation AT ALL of CS policies-i would have thot some of these "CS ambassadors" might have at least pointed that out to you but good for you-brave enuf to risk it and say what you felt is right
sposedly we all have that right although i wish age old principles of wisdom and morality would come into play when it comes to gossip on CS
speaking of our own experience and belief is one thing...
and moloko, as always-big kiss and thats in general-not taking sides
while your post inspires compassion i am sorry to report that lotsa guys do the same behavior
one factor i think is time and also we all want a certain something in looks, whatever that may be
grass is greener syndrome- i mean being online is like being at a buffet-so many choices
sometimes there is an initial attraction but it fades for whatever reason-
sometimes people decide-"what am i doing? the distance is too great!"
and its hard to say 'no thank you' or 'i want to stop with you' cuz nobody wants to be the bad guy or hurt somebody especially if they like the person-
its awkward and the internet allows us to avoid these uncomfortable moments...
yes its a lack of courtesy but thats how it is.
i have found that if i stay in today and dont get too attached to a picture of the future with someone when we begin at having fun i dont feel so hurt.
having no expectations has been and continues to be difficult for me but i know i become too optimistic/hopeful too soon so i watch myself...
i do what i can for me-to be peaceful within myself because that is truly attractive i think
