Lol, I was reading one of the posts, don't remember where, but someone made some reference to dating show in the forum. Lets do it! Who would like to be the dater, and who would like to be the contestants?
I got an email a while ago from a friend in which the story goes that the mom is telling her newly-married daughter to keep in touch with her friends and the importance of it. It then continued on with the daughter realizing why her mom had said that. Lovers come and go, kids grow up, people change, etc..but the one person you can always count on is your friends. So, after that long explanation, I would ABSOLUTELY NOT tolerate my sig other telling me I can't be friends with my friends. Hell, my best friend and I have known each other 13 years now!!
I think as far as sharing your past goes, its largely dependant on what your partner wants to hear. My best friend had a crazy--I mean crazy--past and is now in a new relationship. He guides her as to how much he wants to actually hear of her past....she hints, and he whether encourages or discourages her from continuiing down memory lane. Our pasts are what define us as people. It is our lessons learned, and it has gotten us to the point and to the person we are now.
Makes me wonder how you were able to connect with anyone, iamtheone. Did you ever reveal anything to your mate? If you didn't, its no wonder that you are now claiming this post is like being married again. Wish you well on your ventures.
Never been married, but I don't want a huge wedding. And i'm not sure I would want a religous themed wedding...friends of the family had a perfect wedding in Ashton, Idaho...it was in the fall on his family's ranch (which is situated in a small valley with two mountains on either side) and they were married outside by a jp. It was cool...the reception was then in the horse barn with live music...very, very neat.
I agree with Siren...people do change. Sometimes, when in a relationship that change is symbiotic and agreeable...sometimes not. Bottom line, though, I love who i am as a person and won't change to satisfy the other...thats what ended my last relationship.
My excuse is legit...you guys are sleeping when I'm awake and working, and vice versa! Lucky me, i get to talk to some people...like TT, Dreamer, Tenacious, Tumpa, and others!
Got a training schedule at the gym that works on my entire body...swimming once a week, yoga once a week. Oh, and now that I don't have a car and live in the city, tons of walking!
