I'm sorry because I want to be serious and deep here but I keep reading Lala and I can't stop laughing to type....I'm starting to cry. But not like b4, in a good way.
Thank you sweetie. You have a heart of gold, I've seen it over and over. Unfortunately Dru has heard this rant from me over and over and it's time for me to pull up my socks and fix my ponytail and walk on. There are people on here with some very serious things going on in their lives and I need to remember that.
I think they run because they don't want any responsibility. All the men I meet my age and older have raised their kids and want to "have fun." Since I already had my fun I'm not interested in them either.
Maybe everyone is scared about something. I met someone on here with lots of kids and his life was a mess kind of. I know he wanted to be together but he was so scared to make changes in his life-get his adult children functioning on their own and he took early retirement because of a work injury. I think he couldn't do anything because he was so overwhelmed but I was willing to be involved in all that. But I couldn't change his fears....
This is simply the reality of the situation. You can argue with me all you want (and I realize you're trying to be supportive) but people want what they want and most are selfish. I work and that's about all I can do by the end of the day I'm in pain and exhausted and many times on the weekends I'm still exhausted yet I haven't so far met someone who accepts that or is willing to do something to help me. Hence I'm still single-yes I've dated quite a bit and this is my experience.
I'm content with my life but that isn't all there is to it unless you're alone which I've stayed for much of my adult life. But when you add someone to the equation that isn't all there is to it. For example I work either almost full-time or full-time. I am exhausted at the end of the day and my back is so bad I have to lie down-these are from health problems. So far I've never met a man who wants to cook dinner or pay my bills but I have met lots of men who thought I was either boring because I couldn't do much at the end of the day or didn't do enough for them.
Beautiful post. Many of us on here have health, financial, family and other problems. My problem is that men don't want to see that part of me or deal with it and I'm tired of pretending that it doesn't exist. I've found that I've kind of gone into a shell so that I don't have to meet anyone's expectations. When I tell them things they blow it off in the beginning and say it doesn't matter but then very soon it does and I'm tired of being hurt so I understand everything you've written.
I'm not bothering to answer anymore. I've always answered your posts even when others trashed you and you ignore me. So I'm passing you by from now on. Stooie was right about you. You're rude.
A jerk on HERE??? No way!!! Impossible.... I guess I'm not really over it yet but some day I will be. You don't need that at all, you can have anyone you want-don't put up with it for one minute....
You deserve the best Hugz. You're smart and funny and beautiful (with amazing hair!) You'll meet him. After going on 13 years divorced I thought I found him but I guess he didn't really truly want me. I think I'll join Aunt Vinny for a drink. G I know you're reading this.
