Thankyou Athena, no need for you to apologize. Thats the risk one takes when they post publicly. I have a thick skin and realize that there are alot of very ignorant people in the world...and thankyou :)


I don't really Understand why, but it Seems People here Misunderstand My Writings too Easily. Maybe I Should Change My Photo. Cos it Seems My Photo Makes My Comments Sound Sarcastic

It normally takes me a few months. We are just friends. I admired him for being a great male role model to the younger generation. It was appreciation. Being in awe. I didn't know I'd end up having feelings for him, until he mentioned his break up. Well, after that, I felt unable to supress how my feelings were unfolding, but I'll see how it goes. He is four year younger than me.


hi RG, I just looked at your profile to become better acquainted with you... I realized that we've posted back and forth for a while now and I don't know much about you other than your personal views, so it was a pleasure to take a closer peek... waving .. I'm happy to read that you have found a romantic interest... I will keep my thoughts positive that the two of you will become better friends and maybe more... :thumbsup:


Well thankyou Athena :) I'll be perving yours right back, a bit later. Nice when we can chat in the forums and get to know others personalities. I just dread talking to him, as I literally get a shaking feeling in my legs, whenever I'm around him. laugh.

cool... feeling like I'm perving is why I hesitate to look at profiles, but then I never get to know people without that extra peek... :wink: aaahh, but the shaking legs syndrome is a good sign I think... means you have a level of excitement running through you at the thought of all the possibilities... bigsmile

Kennee.. I understand that you're culture is somewhat different, and you may not really understand how your statement came across, but even if you didn't mean to hurt Cuddlebunny's feelings with what you said, she was obviously offended enough to speak up about it... and once you understand there was some kind of misunderstanding that your words created, it's only right to apologize and explain that you meant no disrespect... I'm not telling you what to do as I've already apologized to Cuddlebunny for my thread's part that created the opportunity for this faux pas to occur... but I am advising you that if it happens again the polite thing to do is apologize yourself... or at least explain what you really meant...

this was/is not an apology Kennee, it was/is placing the blame on others for not understanding your meaning... simply putting a smile on your face and playing it off like it was a harmless joke wouldn't make me feel better if I was the one you were apologizing too... a direct hit, deserves a direct apology... IMHO...

It takes me a long, long time to let down my "guard.".. I want to wait until I have a chance to see "all sides" to a man before I hand him my heart (and trust) on a "silver platter."...I may have feelings for someone but I'm not going to "leap" into anything prematurely...I probably view love like a soup or pasta sauce. It takes time for all the ingredients to "mix" and blend together...I don't want to rush the process... I won't talk about love until I feel totally comfortable with someone at all times...When I'm "sure" of who he really is...No "instant" or "overnight" love for me!


Yep; I agree with what she said. :thumbsup:


hi navygirl, good to see you back from your weekend away... flowerforyou


Thanks. It was fun and I found myself a great new job; so all is perfect in my little world. bigsmile


excellent news then...:thumbsup: will it be permanent?


Yes; its permanent and it's a supervisory job with a chance to move up the ladder; as well wearing blue jeans, and having my own office. Less hours and better hours so I can actually eat properly again rather than rushing from work to my other events.


Congratulations Navygirl that is Great!!flowerforyou


Thanks Toodygirl5. I feel so much more happier now and feel now that I have something to look forward to. I also think my health will be much better and less burn out. flowerforyou
navygirl...Congratulations on your new job! YEA! And I hope your health improves now that you have less stress in your life!

It takes me a long, long time to let down my "guard."..


As people age they erect walls to protect themself from being hurt. Yes, young individuals are more naive but they experience love much easier. As people (yes, men and women) age our likelihood goes down because we (men and women) do not trust each other.

The game of love rewards risk-taking with pleasure. Staying single rewards caution with safety. Being too picky is a way of playing it safe to avoid losing again.

As we age we latch onto two protective walls:

1. I can't find someone worthy of my love.
2. I can't find the love that doesn't ask me to risk losing out again.

I saw this in single people of my parents generation as they passed the 50 year mark. Unfortunately, most never experienced true love again. Not trying to sound like Johnny Rain Cloud: just observations of life.
My husband died 2 years ago. We were happily married for 24 years and together for 30 years...My husband and I were "just friends" and "best buddies" for 2 whole years before love entered the picture. (By mutual consent!)...He never "came on to me" or pushed for "more" and I didn't either...He was busy "finding himself" after his first marriage ended. And I was pursuing my goals and dreams too...We were happy and content being friends..Neither one of us thought that we'd fall in love someday but we did!.. And our love added some extra "frosting" to our close and solid friendship...I'm just not one to leap or rush into anything or "be rushed." And my husband was the same way...But we didn't have to "force" anything on each other. Or "get pushy!"...We gained trust in each other over a period of time and felt secure in our friendship and later in "our love" too!

taking the time to get to know someone & becoming friends is so much easier than being Desperate & rushing into something with your eyes wide Shut! If that makes sense....
Amen! I agree!
