for that Special Someone, I am sure we all have ideas of what we are looking for...what we will accept and what we will not. I suppose the trick is to not "settle" for less than what we desire. However, it does happen. Why do you think we sometimes settle for less?
What would I do? *pondering* Well...call the cops for one thing. Then I am sure I would yell and say some not so nice words for a bit! Cry somewhere in there, I'm sure and then....and somewhere toward the end of my "fit"...I would be exhausted and do my best to turn the negatives into positives. Material possessions and/or "things" can be replaced...people, on the other hand cannot. I have lost plenty of both in my lifetime to understand that everything is temperal. I would count my Blessings, pick myself up, dust myself off and continue to live. And that....is my honest answer that you requested.
I do not think it has anything to do with skin color, although perhaps it could. I think it best to always be up front about things in the very beginning. Post picture(s) that show your face up close, etc. if you are looking for a mate or SO. Sometimes people are more into what another looks like on the outside other than what their Heart looks like on the inside. I am sorry you got hurt, but don't let it make you throw in the towel, so to speak. There truly are good people out there, regardless of race and/or color...just keep being your beautiful self and the Right One will come along when you least expect it. Big hugs to you!
Keeping love alive between 2 people takes work, time, patience, communication, compromise and understanding if it is to flourish. Nothing truly worthwhile is ever easy.
Tell me....
I feel ya on that one loves2steppin. But I just do not know
