Hey.. why is it that most men / women dont say just what they need to or even what they want to? Why is it that they beat around the bush and give stupid excuses for stuff? Cant we just look inside and find our 'cojones' and be honest?
In answer to the original post.. I have often wondered about this and I thank you for posting cause it gives me so much insight into other people's views.. Ohh I love these forums..
As for me, I am slowing beginning to realise that for me love would have to be a concious decision! Waiting for the enigmatic "fall into love" was for when I was in my 20's and could randomly meet someone and be swept away. However, this usually lasted no longer than we got to know each other. Now, I am learning to prepare myself for that time when I can love someone and be loved by that person, with no cloudy haze of infatuation hanging over us. It is a process that obviously begins with meeting and being attracted to someone, but I dont agree anymore that it happens by chance.. The meeting may be by chance but not the continuation that leads into love! Hope I made sense there! LOL
My past two relationships were with younger men and it was great for a time... but in the long term these men generally did not know what they wanted or how they were supposed to go about getting it. They were both not up to the level of maturity to handle major decisions that were required. So now, I think a man my age or maybe a couple years older might be better for me!
Wow. this is so funny.. I wonder the same thing sometimes about guys that I have dated (not relationships).. LOL.. Especially when I see that they dont look the way they did back then..
RE: Thank you CS...!!!
This kind of news always makes me realise there is hope.. Thank you for sharing! And all the best to your daughter and her guy!!
