Yeah, that woud have always been my first idea, I have never had a problem calling a guy if he's already been calling me. But I have screwed up or been screwed over so much here lately so I'm trying to at least think about what I do before I do it. I don't know if it's even worth the scrutiny I'm putting into it, but I'd at least like the chance to find out without him running for the hills first.
Cr@p, that's what I was afraid you'd all say. What if he seems a little insecure about things, should I maybe email him and let him know I did have a good time and would like to get to know him better? He did say, you have my number and my email. Then I said you've got mine too. So, email at least?
Sorry gals, I'm deferring to the men on this, they are the only ones who know the insane workings of the male mind.
and any women who have a clue what goes on in men's heads. Never mind, no woman can or should know that.
What does it mean when you've seen a man a couple or three times, had a real good time, and he tells you to call him, in a way that seems to mean, if you want to see me call me. Is it some kind of power play, like seeing how much you really want to see him, or what?
Second question, should I? I hate this stage of a relationship, I never know what the rules are.
There is no prince charming, grow up and quit wasting your time on fairy tales. If you're extremely lucky you'll find a frog who'll turn into a decent man, but no princes, sorry.
I have never had a date online. I have met people that I date irl. And when I'm not doing that I'm on here chatting with my friends from all over the world that I'd never have gotten to know otherwise. The internet is a tool like any other. It can be used or misused, that's up to us.
Hi Katie and boyd, nice to meetcha. Welcome to the funny farm. This is a great place to meet and talk to other crazies from all over the world, kinda like an international asylum. Glad you're here.
I'm not guilt driven, I know and like who I am. I've never measured myself by the rest of the world's standards. I used to spend a lot more time and energy trying to please those closest to me, only to wind up frustated. Now I do what pleases me, and if that pleases others so be it. If not, it's their problem, not mine.
Is there something wrong with me? I don't even understand what these kind of little tests or games are about. What's it supposed to tell you anyway?
All I know is I will never understand men in general, I quit even trying. Would love to halfass understand at least one one of these days before I die.
Now, I am happier now, more content with myself, my life, and having more fun than I ever have. 50 is my decade, it started out good, and has kept going!
Nothing wrong with your poem, and if that's the way you feel at the moment, you should express it. We're just pointing out it's more fun to be happy than to go around thinking life sux all the time. Everybody gets down, we should have been more supportive. Life does suck sometimes, and sometimes it blows. But if you look for it, it can be fun too.
Ah yes, those of us old enough to remember these words are hopefully old enough to understand, You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you just might find, you get what you need.
Sometimes what you want is the last thing you need, it's better if you don't get everything you want, makes you appreciate more what you do get.
If you think life sux it does. I'm 51, and have plenty of people to love. I don't have to have the one till I find him, if I do. I'm perfectly happy alone and looking around.
Happy people attract others, sad sacks send them running away. Till you're happy with yourself, even if you found someone it would just be cause misery loves company, nobody would be any happier.
Of course, there's the answer. Sometimes we have all these fairytale ideas about what "true" love should be, and when love doesn't turn out happily ever after we doubt that it was true love. But love is a feeling, and if you feel it, it's real. Then comes the part of putting the love into action, love is also a verb. I recall the first time after I started dating that I felt love for someone, and it did scare me to death. Then the thought came to me, it doesn't have to be forever to be love. I can allow myself to love someone without having to know that this is the one I'll spend the rest of my life with. Lord, if I waited for that, well who ever knows about the rest of their life!
My feakin gawd I'm bored! Do you see what I'm doing, I never have to go to the 2nd page looking for interesting stuff. I think it's high time I signed off and just went to bed. Nighty night all!
I need help from my guy friends
