RE: would u go the distance

If I loved someone I would definitely go the distance...no matter how far!

Do any of you feel this way?

I am not blaming the divorce rate on families being together and I am merely stating that you can be blissfully happy or totally miserable in any given situation....depends on your love and commitment. Hey....you been to Yakima?

Do any of you feel this way?

I see families and relationships all the time that are constantly together and very miserable. We have over a 50% divorce rate for God sake...Families and relationships are what you make them...with what you got!

across the state.....across the country....across the oceans....Just not here! Don't get me wrong, if i found love close by I wouldn't deny it...I'm just expressing what I prefer at this point in my life.

Thanks for your comments....Often times you can become closer to a person that is farther away because you value and appreciate the time you share. Relationships are built on closeness and interactions, which I believe is doable. I am not talking permanent long distance...I am talking about while I finish my MBA and other ventures I have before me.

Thank you for your concern about my son. First of all, I am a teacher and we have exactly the same school schedule and he just comes to my classroom after school. The night time job is only on weekends (saturday and Sun)and it is a family restaurant not a bar and I am out of work by 11. He and the owners son's are best friends so I am very fortunate to be able to bring him to work with me. I have reached a point in my degree that the rest of my core classes are all online. Matthew is in bed by 8:30, I stay up til midnight or so doing homework. My children have always been my number one priority.

I too, have had a couple successful long distance relationships. I say successful because we are still friends to this day. In one of those relationships, he could not handle the distance. That's why I say, it takes very strong, confident people to make it works.

RE: Euna Lee and Laura Ling: what will Obama say?

We would never want our President to go on a mission for this purpose. Too much risk and the other governments would use that. I firmly believe President Clinton brought a clear message representing Obama and our government.

RE: Do Men Consider Women Over 40 All Washed Up?

AAAhhhhh....sooooo much is making sense right now!! No wonder you hate women........

I'm thrilled for ya..that you get to be a dad to lil one..thats awesome! But don't give up on women.......we ain't all bad!

RE: Do Men Consider Women Over 40 All Washed Up?

Well, I would say you are missing out on a heck of a lot of good women when you limit yourself. I have never been married but it seems to me, divorced women may have learned valuable lessons that may strengthen and enhance your relationship with them. I dunno...I'm just sayin....

RE: Do Men Consider Women Over 40 All Washed Up?

You don't date divorced women?

Do any of you feel this way?

RE: To my fellow widows and widowers...

hmmmmm.....I lost the love of my life and his name was John....I hear it everyday, but it still stings! But...you could be giving up on a good thing here...why not come up with a pet name or nickname..is that a corny idea?

Do any of you feel this way?

Sounds like a lovely memory. Are you still friends..just curious?

Do any of you feel this way?

A lot more supporters than I thought!! I feel better already

Do any of you feel this way?

Cool...

Do any of you feel this way?

Whew!! Good to know!

Ok...this is where I am coming from.......(I will try to keep it brief)........I am looking for love......but,I WANT a long distance relationship!! People think I’m crazy because they think since I am looking for love....I should naturally want to be with that person constantly. I was never one of those little girls that couldn’t wait to grow up and be married. I am and have always been very independent and I love my life.

My life is very busy right now, I have a 7 year old son, I have 2 jobs ( a teacher by day....shady bartender by night..lol...not really shady.....just sounded good :) Anyway, and I am also a full time student . At the same time, I miss the intimacy of a close relationship, intelligent conversation and the comfort of knowing my guys always in my corner.

I think there is something to be said for absence making the heart grow fonder and the excitement of anticipating the next contact. I love to travel and my schedule allows a good amount of travel time. In my view, it is the best of both worlds. I can live my life, reach my goals , while enjoying the love of a good man., while he can be doing the same.

Eventually, the goal would be to be together........but just not now. The thing is....it takes really strong people to have such a relationship. I am not the jealous type and I am not a cheater and I think with trust and commitment it can be successful. Do I sound absolutely fricken crazy...or are their others that feel the same way?????

Congratulations!!! That's awesome!!

RE: Im too emotionally involved to see clearly

We can all give you wonderful advice...but in the end, it is only you that is on this journey. Embrace what you had, learn life's lessons and make the best of whats to come. It sounds like she is on a journey of her own and she is not capable of having a healthy relationship yet. The timing is off and perhaps you'll find your way to each other in the future after she learns her lessons too.
