I met a lady less than a week ago on a dating site. Didn't know what to expect but when we met for the first time last night for coffee, we had a lot of laughs, talked about some things we had in common and she was happy to go out again in the future. No expectations and no pressure.
It must be because I grew up in a small town I'm friendly with everyone. Even on dating sites. Whenever I get a view from someone or I view them I don't necessrily think I or they want a date but just a friendly normal look. When I send or receive an email, I automaticly think it's just a friendly justure and nothing more. Am I missing the boat?
I don't get it. Images of young attractive models proclaiming their desire for dating men over 50 on dating sites just for older men. What's with that?
There are some big questions that no one can answer. 1. Where did God come from and who created God? 2. Where is the proof for both religious people and atheists? For evolution there is only theory and no actual proof. 3. When will we advance as a human species and stop the hate and killing?
I find people of all sorts fascinating. Even those who refuse to have anything to do with me are one way or other connected with me. Soooooo, HELLO ALL MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS. Nice to be part of the family.
The truth is no one knows for sure what the higher power is (God?). It's human nature to make up stories for things they don't understand. Mytology is a classic example. Some people can't deal with the facts, especiallty if they grew up in an environment that dictates how you should think.
If she understands your feelings and she is being honest with you, then it's important to respect her feelings also and move on if you can't be friends. Have ladies ever fell for you and you had no feelings for them? We all go down that road one time or other.
Was invited out to a public function by a nice lady. We danced a little bit and only one or two drinks. At the end of the night we went to her place where I left my car. Before I got out her car she leaned over and gave me a big wet kiss and asked me if I wanted to come in for a night cap. Her teen son at that time arrived home and I felt uncomfortable being a stranger coming into his home with his mom. So I just left. Was that a form of seduction on her part and what would you do?
I consider myself a brave soul and will do almost anything for fun, so I went on a blind date from a newspaper ad. We met at a donut shop. I darn near fell off my chair when she introduced herself. She was cross-eyed with thick glasses and her teeth were rotting with the two front teeth protruding out like Goofy. She was nice and very smart but all she talked about was herself. I smiled politely, listened for 45 minutes and went home. From now on I will demand a picture before agreeing to meet.
Sorry for your pain. It's not easy for both of you. I can also understand your daughter's pain to a certain degree owing to the effect having been kidnapped myself a few years ago with no contact with anyone. The trauma is still there and I avoid family and others because it's difficult to discuss anything of a personal nature. This was 10 years ago and the memories for me are still as fresh as yesterday - it's not the fact of not allowing you into her life, perhaps it's the trauma of past events that still linger in the mind (speaking for myself), and no doubt the need to heal with time. Just be there in spirit with your own personal strength for her. Physical presence can be painful but the spiritual and assertive you will have a greater impact over time . Hang in there, it's a question of time no matter how painful... Just a question of time to heal all pain.
Falling in love with someone in cyberspace and spending time together in person are two different things. It's important to spend time together in person first,if you are both honest and care for each other, then you will know.
My pet peeve is people who don't keep their word. I invited a female friend to a stage production and she agreed to go. Weeks before the production she asked me a few times when the show was and I gave her the time and date. Again I asked her if she was serious, she said yes, and I bought a couple of expensive tickets. The week of the performance I asked her again and she hesitatively said she was tired and not sure if she could make it. Fortunately, I have another female friend who went with me, but the one who didn't keep her word is now seen in a different light. People who don't keep their word get no respect from me.

RE: If your significant other lost their temper one time and physically harmed you would you
To continue seeing someone who showed physical violence toward you only gives them permission to be violent again.
