It could be that the person you are trying to IM is blocking you or closing the box beforeyou connect. People on here don't like being Im'd before they have chatted to you first on here.
Couldn't agree more. The way the Irish use the English language is a case in point. Our endearments are often couched in what the rest of the world term as swear words. Our language and culture intermingle to the extent where it is all very colourful.
Just surmising here, but I'd guess that your previous relationships have been with bad boys, or men who are a bit unpredictable, aggressive, or wild, maybe even ones that have thrown you over for other women or more excitement. You may have categorised them as your "type" so this one feels totally different and not "you".
You hit it on the head............you are afraid.
My advice would be to go with this one, give it a chance for, say, 6 months. Even though it doesn't seem like the ones you have felt comfortable with in the past, maybe it is time for you to change and mature and appreciate a "good" guy. Maybe you are ready for some real loving and after a little time you might even feel like you deserve it.
Fear is the number one reason that people don't get what they deserve in life, and it is usually because they don't give themselves a chance.......
Water in developed countries is not safe even if it is supposedly purified.
I did research on this for college and I found that things like turpentine, white spirits, paint chemicals, and other industrial chemicals don't break down in landfills, or when dumped, and end up in the water table.
Purification doesn't get rid of them then, and they arrive in your tap water source ready for drinking.
Same thing for bottled water. Sources for bottled water are wells, where the water has been filtered from the water table too, and it is also contaminated with chemicals that can't be broken down.
So, whether the water is filtered, bottled, or not, it makes no difference to its content.
My resolutions are my life promises to myself, my lyfestyle, reconciliation with who I am, and the means to living my life, with best intentions to improve on it every day.
I don't make them every year, but sometimes every waking moment of every day.
One day even you will look in the mirror and cringe, if you live long enough. That is life. People the same age are you are right now, will look at you when you are old, and shudder.....
It is just a pity that younger people can't see it, and have to get old and learn life's lessons the hard way.
I think that people in general are two faced and shallow. They all talk about the beauty being "within", but when it comes to a partner they all go for looks, figure etc. I will step out on a limb here too and say that this applies more to men than women too.
I have heard talk before about being able to wake up next to someone they like to look at, but what about people who are older, waking up looking at sagging skin, and bald heads, hairy noses, and ears, and backs, and cracks, and no teeth? Is there some rule that this doesn't count any more when you are older?
Or....... do people eventually find the real value in folks when they "get over themselves" and how important they think looks are......???
Does it take age and wisdom and experience to see past the dressing to the "reality" beneath???
(Which begs the question, do some people ever grow up and mature?)
I always thought that too, but I am finding more and more on here that people start threads that are often personal to them to get views and outside opinions......
Giving her another fault to compound his list of faults, by adding liar to the mix, hoping it would help her hate him more, so she would not feel sad that they are no longer together.
The things people do to each other in the name of love....

RE: Catharsis
That was a lovely piece, well written. Your voice is beautifully modulated and ideally suited to reading poetry.
