Better to have loved and lost.. definitely.. being in love (the true kind) makes it possible for you to BE the person you aspire to be..(look at the Corinthians thread) because pure love is selfless and so satisfying spiritually (if that makes sense).. with it there is no doubt, no uncertainty, and no fear.. because you don't actually EXPECT anything from it.. all that concerns you is that other persons happiness.. very rare.. but truly magical if you have ever had the good fortune of experiencing it
I normally go for brains, personality and then looks.. though I am not sure I trust my own judgement anymore the last two guys I went out with were totally wrong!!.. ...
I don't think you have anything to lose in going along with it on a friendship level... (just be careful not to mislead) I was with a guy for 6 years who initially didn't rock my boat... chemistry isn't always instant
I think particularly romantic love is flawed because it can be so selfish, mistrustful and so steeped in pride... I love my family, and my closest friends in accordance with the above, but for me at least, I have only come accross one man who inspired me to love him in this way.. in fact it didn't even seem like an inspiration.. it felt totally natural.. like I genuinely was prepared to put him first...
I think it kinda depends on how long the relationship was.. who finished it.. how deeply you were hurt etc... I had a very brief and insignificant (suppose you could call it a relationship ) recently which I pretty much moved on from straight away, but in the past it has taken me over a year.. depends on the intensity I guess JMO
I am only an Aunty but have many hours babysitting under my belt.. Bonjela (medicated gel that you get in Pharmacy/Chemist) is good, also.. they seem to like chewing on things around this time.. so a teething ring may also help...
I grew up in the Countryside, which was great as a kid, cause I could fully explore my imagination and the sense of freedom was great... my teenage years were fun too, cause I hung around with a big group of friends and there was always something to do... have some fab memories... being an adult isn't all its cracked up to be however ...
Not a lot to be honest... went to a cool Salsa club though last night and danced the night away.... bit tired today as a result so a fried egg sandwich is as good as it got
Thats the thing isn't it?.. the fact is that most of us will HAVE to work.. saddly... the question is really one of priority I guess.. money is important, but its not more important than family... there are women who barely see their children at all.. in that they work 12 hour days in the City.. I have never really seen the point of that JMO
Hiya Claayer.. that sounds like the perfect balance ... I hope if I ever do have kids that I can do my best to be there as much as possible... u don't get those years back
I think it can be hard for women... my Mum ran her own business when we were younger.. and I remember missing her (even though she gave up until we were school going age)... If I ever do have kids I would like to continue working... but work would take second place and my priority would be my family life
I don't think anyone should feel obliged to do anything... particularly when it comes to matters of the heart...
If someone is all over you in too short a space of time.. chances are they are not genuine and the feelings aren't real... I learned that on here.. the hard way...
RE: Daily commentary... a PEACEFUL say something thread... :)
