I have never had to be admitted for rehab...however I do smoke and i wish with all my heart i could quit...have attempted it sooooo many times...so i can just imagine how difficult a process it was for you...and my hat's off to you for your accomplishment...WELL DONE!!
I am just curious for the "been around the block" folks on here...are you really interested in being "married" or do you just want to find a compatible partner to spend the rest of your days with
And I am not knocking marriage...I just want to know how important a part that plays at this stage of the game...
Though i've tried and tried to come up with the words...i just can't...there are no words when i think of you..its all just a "feeling" I am glad to have met you..we shared things that only you and i will look back on and be able to laugh about...we talked about things that came from the very depths of our beings...you opened my eyes to so many aspects of myself, and i love you for that...
You are like a rare jewel that has many facets...you too showed different sides to yourself everyday...and i loved all of them, your charm and grace and beauty precedes you wherever you go...and people respond to it...willingly...
I read a quote by Khalil one time..and now i think of you when i see it..here is my rendition of it as it applys to you...
One day a man will ask you who's life was more important..."yours or mine"..and you will reply "mine"..and he will walk away never knowing it was HIM that was your life...
That is what you are..loving, giving and generous...I truly hope that some day soon you will find a man worthy of all you are...
Until then...I am and always will be your friend...I will treasure all our time together...and cherish the memories that we made..but i will also look forward to making new ones with you...
Wikked...
P.S. Everywhere i go...I still here reverberating in my head "DANG...Wikked!!!"...and it cracks me up each time....LOL
Thanks Mike for letting us see it from a man's point as well...I did say in my opening post that it was a general statement...because i do know that there are men out there who do make that effort (I of course have yet to find one... )
OMG!!! I was supposed to keep it??...I already ate all the tomatoes James...
Oh wait a sec...you meant the sunglasses...lol...yes James I will treasure it...I will put them on every now and then to remind myself how my friend James views the sky in his world...ever soooo blue!!
You're right Froggy Baby...lol... Cat is the one who pointed out to me that it is in my nature to love without expecting love in return...to give without expecting anything given in return...and its not a bad thing...it is who i am..what i give..i most certainly give willingly...
Susie...I think what you are saying is tht you are trying to be realistic...and that the prerequisites you have stated fall into what you are able to accommodate...
What i think James is saying is that when you put such limitations then you have to be prepared for same....limitations...
I understood what you meant by fantasy trip...it's kind of like saying i live in Canada and i'm having this wonderful passionate relationship with someone in Scotland and i'm going to go there and live happily ever after...though it is possible...there is much effort to be put into making such a thing feasible...
If you are unable to travel further...then yes you should say so..but why not allow the men to decide if you are worth going that extra mile for???...
He's going back to her for the children...or at least that is how he justifies it...he is just as disrespectful to those children as he is to their mother by doing what he is doing...and she is allowing it....you know the old saying...
And you know what you are saying here is not just rambling Cat...At this stage in our life we were all supposed to know what we were looking for and what we wanted...so then why do i still feel like i am in a "game" of sorts....
Hey James!!! I was wondering whose sunglasses they were!! Shall i Fed Ex them to you???...or perhaps...ummm...you know...like if someone is coming up to visit you any time soon (coughs behind hand "cherie") they could maybe bring it for you....
I am beginning to see a pattern with the "men" i have met on this site and "out there" that they all seem to want the same thing...or so their profiles say...you know...good woman..good lovin'...compatible partner..etc etc....but here's the problem, they seem to want to accomplish this with as little effort on their part as necessary....I AM NOT SPEAKING OF ALL MEN HERE...this is just a "general statement"...so please do not get your short hairs in a knot!!
I have talked to some wonderful women on here...myself included...who have so much to offer someone...yet once those men "have us"...its like we now become an "afterthought" in the day to day life...and somewhat of an inconvenience while they go through the motion of taking care of "life"...
