Good question ymer! When the other person gets pissed off, pouts like a child and pulls the old silent treatment! My ex use to do that....drove me nuts!!! And also deceit...of any kind.
In our quest for happiness we must be sure that we don't settle for a Playmate when God has a Soulmate waiting for us.
Sometimes this is a hard distinction to make.
Playmates are tricky.They are so much fun to be with that even the smartest of us will be fooled into thinking this has to be our Soulmate.
Worse yet too many of us attempt to make a Soulmate out of a Playmate.
The danger of this is that later, after years of playing we will meet our Soulmate, but it may be too late then. We may have already made a Life mate of our Playmate and created life-long bonds (emotional bonds, children, etc.).
Or we may have been hurt from playing so hard that we are in no shape ourselves to be anyone's anything.
How can we distinguish between the One, and just another one?
I believe that first, we must be open with ourselves about who we really are and what our soul yearns for. Only you and the Man upstairs know what is truly in your heart and mind. Only you know what will make you truly happy and whole.
In order to find your Soulmate you have to know You, first. You must be willing to listen to that inner voice. And is that voice telling you that that nerdy person you enjoy talking and sharing your thoughts with, could be him/her? What about that friend who is always willing to go the extra mile for you when no one else will. Oh no, he/she's too short or too tall, balding or too hairy, and on and on. Just too ordinary looking for me!!
Then there's that man/woman who makes you feel so special when you're around them, but they don't match that ideal you have conjured in your head. They are not tall enough, not slender enough, not light or dark enough, not shapely enough, not attractive enough, and on and on. They just couldn't do it for me!! He or she is going to treat you like the jewel that you are. Not only that, his/her soul and yours will commune in ways you never imagined possible.
In order to heed that voice, I believe we have to put on the back burner our own superficial thinking. Could it be that your inner desire is for a truly genuine person with a good heart? If you enjoy playing, stay on the playground. There are plenty of Playmates out there to occupy your time. But don't spend too much time playing or you may play your life away.
Eventually the playing loses its appeal and your soul begins to crave a deeper, more meaningful connection.
OUCH!!! What a rough spot to be in!! One thing I would do would be to make 100% certain you have all the facts straight before mentioning a single word.
I am part Native American and grew up with my Grandparents and Native Elders. I think there are alot of non-conventional alternative medicines, herbs, etc., that can be quite beneficial at times.
Actually, I believe most say they are here to possibly find the "one". I am mainly here for the Forums. You seem like a very nice man, but I think alot have been burned in their search for him/her. Alot of times people are not really who they portray themselves to be on line when it comes to meeting face to face . There are alot of weeds to pull from the garden to find the flowers, so to speak. Don't give up. Patience is a virtue, so I have been told.
I am not sure Oklahoma is famous per say. Alot of history with the Dust Bowl days in the panhandle of Oklahoma and Native American history. The movie Oklahoma is not a bad flick. Maybe you could rent it???
