I could be a herniated disc - pinching on your sciatic nerve - only a MRI can tell tho. Mine was on the right side - similar symptoms - dr can give anti-inflammatory and pain meds. But .... bottom line - if you've had it this long - you really should consult a dr. Good luck.
OH I agree Tater - I'm new - wouldn't presume to know anyone like that yet - but seems some folks here are quite friendly with each other. And would enjoy the opportunity to visit somewher they might not otherwise afford to.
Seems people do home exchanges all the time - and what could be nicer than to travel somewhere - if you're like me - probably alone - and have a friendly face to greet you and guide you. Of course you would contribute some expenses, such as food - but wouldn't it be nice to visit some place new without the added expense and uncertainty of accomodations as long as it would be reciprocated?
Well - I think I would also - given the time to get to know people better - seems like a good idea to me. Would give people a chance to meet in person and maybe make visiting new areas more affordable too.
Would you open your home to a fellow CS member who wanted to visit your country or state - and allow them to stay with you - especially if the the favor would be returned?
Lovely....I hope you find her one day - it will be the moment you know you are completed and full of love. Hold on to it tightly, because life is short and the moments we have with those we love are so short.
In my opinion it's not apathetic - tis respectful to yourself and others. Accepting the things you cannot change, changing the things you can - having the wisdom to know the difference. In end....we have no power over how anyone else acts or feels - we can only be responsible for ourselves.
I don't believe in them - reason being....ldr's are like unrequited love - you spend more time missing the other person than enjoying being with them and getting to know the real person - for me, I'd have to have the in-person contact. Anyone can paint a pretty picture of themselves online - it's the in person picture that counts. Anyone will tell you that fantasy is so much better than reality. Online relationships are unfulfilling after the initial excitement - ldr's can be expensive if there is a lot of travel - and if it does get to the "serious" stage - then someone has to make a huge sacrafice - a lot of things to consider just up and moving - maybe better for younger people, not for me at my age. Just my opinion - you asked - I respectfully gave.
