Apparently he has some interest in you. If it were me I would not jump on that right away to keep things more casual until you see what his intentions may be.
As much as we want the best for someone in trouble, it is still ultimately up to them to do something about it. There is not any way to force them into action. Just maintain contact with them or stay with them overnight if that is possible to encourage them to seek help.
Hmm. This may be a long shot, but there just may not be the right chemistry between you and them to be more intimate. I have known guys who were good friends, we would hang out and share our problems, but I would not want to be with them either. The feeling towards them was that of a buddy. Nothing wrong with that as many of us are also in the same situation. Give yourself time and the right girl will come along.
No matter what your age is or the age of your child, if men run then you have weeded out the bad seeds. I am raising my young granddaughter and she is first and foremost in my life. I am 49, and would like to have a long term relationship because I am not into the games and would like to have someone along side of me. At the same time if no one comes along then I will still have a happy life if it is just me and my granddaughter.
My reality is being able to make a true difference in a child's life. I cannot see how things could be much better than to raise my young granddaughter, to love, protect, and give her stability.
Since I have custody of my granddaughter I have more than enough reason to save myself. I something were to happen to me what would become of her? You just have to consider what you have to lose before deciding on something like this.
Since it would take too much time to explain all the reasons why I am divorced, let me just say that I can do and deserve a lot better than having a low life for a spouse.
Since I don't have that method talking to them on the phone can do just as much. In 10 minutes or less you can tell if you would be making a big mistake.
Considering that many guys will just disappear without telling you anything it comes down to the same thing. It was fun while it lasted and it has gotten old to them or they could have found someone fresh to play with for awhile. No offense! Players will lie through their teeth to get what they are after. It sucks, but is all too true.
My mom has been the best I could ever ask for. Even now she calls me each weekend because she lives up north, she takes care of me and our granddaughter. My mom is my best friend and at 73, she still works full time and I will be lost without her.
As it is, I am the only mom my granddaughter has ever known. I treat her and love her as if she were my own daughter. There is nothing I will not do for her and she thinks I hang the moon as she will not let me out of her sight for fear I will not come back.
My mom taught me well how to be all I can be to my kids growing up and now for my granddaughter.
Aside from the last wave of heat we are expected to have as fall sets in, I am dealing with taking more medications for a lower back injury I suffered in a car accident 7 mos. ago. It has been discouraging to think that this is how it will always be.
On the bright side I am enjoying time with my granddaughter who lives with me. Next year she starts kindergarten and I know I will miss her being here terribly. It will be good for her to make new friends and learn all she can.
I have used a ouija board many times over the years. Yes, it device on the board does move to reveal answers. Strange as it seems the answers were quite accurate. There have been stories of ouija boards bringing in dark presences or causing possession, but either it depends on the individual whether or not they will suffer later or I am bad enough nothing will come near me.
It is hell to have your heart broken. It is better to gain something from the experience than to give up. Take time make to yourself stronger and go in with your eyes wide open. You gain nothing when you give up.
Even a significant other tends to take over after awhile. I like living the way I do without having to please anyone else. It has taken me 4 yrs. to get to this point and would be afraid that I would have to share too much of myself, not to mention the house, t.v., etc.
I think that people need to believe in a religion is so that they have something to hold onto. Many feel they need a purpose in their lives, something to fall back on in hard times. Others are so afraid of dying without a belief system. To exist one day and then not at all another can be a scary thought. If there is another side to cross over to they still live on.
I have had custody of my granddaughter since she was 18 months old and now she is almost 5 yrs. old. I have done all I can to protect her from being exposed to relationships because if it fails she will be more hurt than I would. For more than a year she has wanted me to meet someone and have a life. The world is not what it use to be so even if I put a lot of effort into it, this does not mean it will happen.
I have no regrets about being alone because she is safe from what is out there. She has been a great kid and I want her to grow up to be untouched by a bad experience that I may have put her through.
For me it has to be a little bit of both. Someone once told me that it is not the size of the boat, but the motion in the ocean. I guess I prefer the big cruise liners so I am not left wondering when it will begin and he is already finished.
