I don't think I would say "I don't want to do this any longer". Saying it that way makes it sound like a project.
It might sound more honest if you said something like "I don't think we are making a connection "his name". He will probably say....what do you mean....and that will open the door for you to explain. If he doesn't ask what do you mean, then he was probably feeling the same way but didn't know how to tell you. If I was in the situation I would NOT ask him to be friends.
A woman stopped by unannounced at her recently married son's house
She rang the doorbell and walked in
She was shocked to see her daughter in law lying on the couch, totally naked.
Soft music was playing and the aroma of perfume filled the room
"What are you doing" she asked
"I'm waiting for my husband to come home from work" the daughter in law answered
"But you're naked" the mother-in-law exclaimed
"This is my love dress" the daughter in law explained
"Love dress"? But you're naked
"My husband loves me to wear this dress" she explained
"It excites him to no end. Everytime he sees me in this dress he instantly becomes romantic and ravages me for hours on end. He can't get enough of me"
The mother in law left
When she got home, she undressed, showered, put on her best perfume, dimmed the lights, put on a romantic CD and laid on the couch waiting for her husband to arrive
Finally her husband came home
He walked in and saw her laying there so provocatively
I'm coming in late on this and the OP probably won't even read it, but what the heck, I'll make my contribution anyway.
My husband was an atheist. How do I know? He told me that when he was in a fox hole in Korea, the only time he believed in God and prayed to Him was when he was in a fox hole.
You can bet there are men and women in Iraq and Afghanistan who don't believe in God yet they are praying under their breath that they make it out of that s-it hole alive.
I got my hair and nails done to go on a date with Handsome but he's trying to set up a date with lotsa guys and girls at the same time. I'm greedy. I don't want to share him.
Then Boban gave me a kick to the curb and said he wants Handsome all to himself.
If I was to die from illness I doubt food would be on my mind. However, my last words would be "I love you Patty" (my daughter). Funny you bring this up. I've told her that she can be sure that my last thought will be of her. I guess that's kinda stupid cause who knows what will be going through my mind if I was sick.
If I was going to be executed, my last words would be still for her. I still doubt that food would be on my mind.
Sweet, when I lost the 126 lbs. I stopped eating ice cream, anything that came from a bakery, candy store and carbs. I didn't count carbs, but I was aware of the simple ones, they are the bad ones. Cereals, oatmeal, etc. are complex carbs and are good for you within reason. I didn't exercise at all.
Really no need for me to explain what I wrote. She asked him for money. It's against the Rules. I certainly wouldn't want her to get banned on this cause I like Charli but it could have backfired on her when all she was doing was trying to B.S. him.
Okay. I don't want you to think I was bashing you but I see it so many times that people say someone scammed them when in part what the person did was use fluff wording with a lot of B.S. to get someone's attention. I don't consider it scamming unless they ask for money which is a red flag.
Hi Ken Ya know, there's something about saying goodbye. It brings closure. After my divorce my husband and I were very good platonic friends. I still rescued him from bars, cold weather, or whatever trouble he got himself into. After all, he was the father of our daughter and even though I didn't love him romantically, I still loved him as our daughter's father.
I took our 10 year old daughter to see him every weekend. One day his mother called me and said "he's gone". I was crushed and couldn't get over it for three years.
His mother found him after he had been dead for several days so we couldn't have an open casket at the funeral. My daughter and I feel we never had the chance to say goodbye. After the funeral I asked the detective if I could see the photos that were taken when they found him and the detective said he was too decomposed for my viewing.
All I can see is a closed casket. There's something missing and I wish I could have let him know that I cared about him to the day he died.
RE: If I go to the movies alone...
Absolutely not!!! I have been going to the movies alone for many, many years, even when there was a man in my life.
