As in every thread about this same subject .. there must be dozens of them on here ...

Let's say it together

(((((((((((((((( IT'S THE INTERNET )))))))))))))))

This is the net. Expact anything to happen.

I got tired of being the option, when I was making her a priority.

Not an online thing.

the first senerio was after actually dating for a while.

Have you been reading my diary? Thanks for posting this, actually -- it's comforting to know others have experienced the same thing and that maybe, just maybe it's not 'me' that's doing something 'wrong' and causing people to float in and out of my life. I used to think I was a good judge of character, but this mode of communication can really make you question yourself!

it really can, but i just have to hold firm to my beliefs in God and myself.

Because they are not horny anymore .

I've heard a thousand times that 'it's the internet, what did you expect?' -- and while I understand this format can be a feeding ground for disingenuos people, I don't want to force myself to be distrusting of others' intentions. I want to be able to take people's kindness at face value - in the same way that I extend it. Okay, quit rolling your eyes and smirking, everyone ... I know what you're thinking 'Girl, take off the rose coloured glasses already!!'

These are tough lessons for people who wear their hearts on their sleeves ... am I right?

you gotta watch out for the chickensh1ts
i refuse to email anyone until AFTER we've met.

I think I'll adopt that as my new mantra ... and save myself the risk of carpal tunnel syndrome for nothin'!

I've had that happen, its so irritating. I have a similar situation. I talked to a guy online who lived relatively close for over a year, talked to him on the phone a lot. Every time HE'D say he wanted to meet up he'd never show. Eventually I just gave him my address and said if he felt like droppin by, he could find me pretty easily cus I wasn't wasting my time waiting for him at places anymore. So here I am, about to move BACK to Arkansas in a very short time. He'd ASKED me to stay with him til I find a place there, even offered to help us move. Where is he now? Your guess is good as mine cus I ain't heard from him in 2 weeks...lol. Nor do I care, life is too short to sweat the small stuff.

Wow ... I'm really sorry that you went through all that -- but I love your ability to shrug it off and keep moving forward. It's both reassuring and motivating ... thanks!

He has only two choices : either he is cuddling and kissing right now or he became impotent.... !.

I'm soo into you, I can't wait to see you again............ I gotta go!!

Aww thanks

I really just am so used to crap like that it doesnt' even phase me anymore. I pretty much expect it...lol. I'll be surprised when someone actually does what they say they will. In the meantime I'm plenty happy without all the drama that tends to come with relationships.

LOL, I have a feeling he was just chicken sh!t. He's a 21 year old guy who, until he met me, dated girls who were all newly 18 and had no direction and no idea what they wanted. I think he likes the naive girls who don't know how to be in a relationship...lol. I pretty much figure that the idea of a strong woman with goals in her life scared the crap out of him.

Blah blah blah.

Looks like yer kinda bored LHB...lol

Oops. Double post.

I'm picking boogers. Old booger threads.
