I am not in a hurry to fall in love with anyone especially since every great guy I meet lives like a billion miles away from me!! I am enjoying my freedom and the fact that I can talk to as many guys as I want and never have to worry about answering to the other about anything. I am not ready to delete all the #'s in my cell phone just yet!!

Thanks Mike - I have been working on my issues, and my friends here have been helping. Still have that nagging fear though. I hope the friend I am talking to is real, seems to be, and seems to have a good heart, we have talked for hours and hours and hours, he knows my past and I know his past, but after all he is just a voice on the end of the telephone and on the other end of the computer screen until we actually meet. That will happen in the next few months. I don't think he has a mean bone in his body, not from all we have talked about and his background, etc., and he is accepting me for who I am, flaws and all, and I am accepting him with his flaws. Time will tell after all.

Have a good night, and now I really have to go to bed, I have to be up for work in about 5 hours, darn. Take care, and thanks.

I don't think it's about trying to figure them out, it's more pay attention to them when you see them. I have to admit that i have see things in my past relationships and chose not to really look at them because i didn't want to let that person go. Some of us feel that once we have someon and it don't matter if there bad for us. we hang on because afraid to let go. The feeling of when will be the next one

Right on Have a good night

I do phone sex for a living. It's the closest I plan on getting to love ever again in this lifetime.

You guys are really sweet! But that's easy to say to someone online. I must've said something to make him really not like me I guess. I have no clue! Oh well.

Or maybe it was just him

I use to think that way, but then again. This is the net I just say keep being you and in time when it's right, somone will come along when you least expect it

I met someone on here, we hung out last night, and we're going to do it again. Yay!

I tend to put my foot in my mouth sometimes lol It's a nervous tendency.

Most people on here are afraid to say how they feel, sad but that is human nature. But oh well, if nothing else we have fun and make new friends

Nah not you

I have let go of the thought of falling in love

really??? most people are afraid to just let go and do Anything...i swear i though we had a duh emoticaon on here

fearing love is like fearing happiness

people do not fear happiness
they understand that happiness may not last forever
loss of happiness is what one fears
a lack of certainty or control
and the contrast between joy and indifference
and the struggle to recapture contentment

this is why play is so important
it is liquid delight
laugh and be delighted
and you will always find merriment with your friends

people do not fear love
they fear betrayal and loneliness

these are pointless fears however
for betrayal is beyond our control and fearing 'that'
is to be afraid of one's own shadow
and loneliness has a cure my friends
'my friends'

now go forth and play!

I'm perfectly content with holding my feelings on so tightly, that NO-ONE including family will know how I actually feel. Ever.

I'm not afraid of falling in love. I am afraid of it blowing up in my face and/or changing who I am. losing my self idenity. Yup, I guess that means I'm just afraid. lol

I'm not afraid of falling in love. I'm afraid of getting hurt when the man I fall in love with doesn't feel the same way about me.
