Change your post from "why do I always get hurt" to "how did I get so lucky" or " why is everyone so good to me" and stick with that mentallity. We attract what we think about most of the time..biggrin

Now I remember...


Don't make someone a priority that makes you an option flowerforyou


wow I can relate to that...I've done it. I mean...making someone a priority while i was just an option. Treat them or at least make them feel like they are only an option...so they understand how it feels like.

Pretty much how all my relationships go, though they often "tell" me what a priority I am. I guess you don't have to listen to someone for them to be a priority? I can see that, makes sense.

Lol....I was actually TOLD, that I am not the top priority. In 2 relationships already. What a fool I am...damn. Once it was a dog, that beat me, in the other, it was the career.

Wow..Marty, that is awful. Those "girls" don't know anything.


Frank, I think we have all been there at some point.

But 2 wrongs don't make it right!

Just realize when this is happening and if it can't be fixed then walk away.

Communication is key! If there is no balance in the relationship then it's lacking and nothing you do will bring about a change. Doing unto another what they've done to you NEVER opens their eyes! They will only see your actions as reflections of theirs and nothing will be learned.

Both are really good advice. Welcome to Mingle

Here's the thing. The vast majority of the time, the people we are really into aren't equally as into us. And I'm betting that there are guys into you who YOU are not that into, am I right? It's rare that we find someone who likes us just as much as we like them. Those are those rare, special times that we fall in love. When we do, we need to hang onto that and not take it for granted.

You seem like you have a good head on your shoulders. And you are so pretty! Have patience, it'll come along.

If you don't like the type of people you are meeting, change the crowd you hang out with and the places you hang out at. You are young don't rush. It will come in time.

Thanks so much!! and thanks to everyone else who offered their advice and welcomed me. I didn't realize i didn't really tell you much about my past... I guess I was so angry.

Yeah... I'm pretty sure I'm just attracting the wrong guys. I don't exactly know what's wrong with me. Maybe it's because I have an idea guy in my head and somehow these guys know??? wait.... I thought guys said they can't read minds lol!

But seriously, I end up dating either the super romantic guy who comes up to me one day and just says "the magic just isn't their anymore" or the super macho, stoic guy that doesn't like showing emotion and who never seems interested in what I have to say.

I'm not the nagging type, I've been there before and it didn't do any good. I'm willing to trust, but not be naive. I won't look for issues but if I see them I won't ignore them hoping everything will disappear. I know it won't. BUT... I've never been old fashioned. I've always been the "unique" one. Actually my name is Shalaria and that's what that means. I'm a libra. I don't like being alone.

This relationship thing isn't driving my life... but I'd definitely have time for it. I'm persuing what I want in life for myself and I just realized that.... well.... I'm doing everything alone. Don't have much of a social life as I've been out of state for the summer and just recently got back but... I just want something new and yes, that means I want someone I can actually talk to. Have a conversation with about something other than sex or Karma Sutra moves.

Maybe I am just too young... Maybe i really have no idea what I'm talking about... ugh... this sucks.

Sorry I'm not making any sense

I'm a great person, not being y or arrogant, but I really consider myself a genuine person. I speak my mind, am honest, have NEVER cheated and like romance. Not roses, and chocolates on Valentine's (I have never really liked this holiday simply because it's a very ironic day for me) but just someone who really cares. Who isn't afraid to care. Who isn't a liar, player or just out to win a bet...

where are the guys who can actually date before doing anything else... who aren't afraid of commitment. Commitment doesn't mean marriage. I'm FAR from that... just... A real relationship... something meaningful and real... I just don't understand. Where is the love??grumble


There is something wrong with picker, you need to adjust your screening program
