So, I have come to the conclusion that there is nobody more important than the person you are in love with. And that when you look at her you remember not just today but the first time you talked to her and all of the little things that added up. Remember it all at once and it will build a fire behind your eyes that she can see and you can feel. Keep the love hot, show her how you feel with your words and actions. Respect her and let her know how much she means to you but also think of her as dirty, sexy and naughty.

Touch her with the knowledge that this might be the last time you will ever feel her. Drink her like she is life. You may not get another chance. She could be gone tomorrow.

Cherish her tears.

It's sad, too. It's a feeling like you're going off to war and never coming back.
Then play to win like your life depended on it, or get the fuck off the playing field.

Anything less insults you and the SO.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. How in the world you are still single is beyond me.

Now that's insulting to me. How would you know what my life it like?

I read it as a general comment, not directed personally.

It is a general statement, and one of proactive intent/hope. If you choose not to be proactive, that choice belongs to you, not me or anyone else. i haven't seen many posts by you, however, that indicate you prefer sitting back and hoping for the best.

Then I apologize for taking it personally. I decided that if you were going to quote my post, then you were speaking in reference to my post.

Probably a fuck-up on my part as well.

No blood ... bummer no foul.

I think he must be extremely picky, as all people should be when finding mates.
 
I am extremely picky.

There is someone that I want to take a chance with though.

I don't know how many would understand my need to be so picky. I've been accused of being odd more than once for turning down sex. If she is just stunningly gorgeous of course I'll want to play with her but that rarely happens.

For me, I put so much of myself into and give so much of myself away when I go onto one of these things that I just can't afford to not be very picky. When it doesn't work out it tears me to pieces and it takes a long time to recover.

I can't give up though. There is some kind of driving force within me that realizes the consequences for failure and just doesn't care. I only need to find her once. A thousand heartbreaks is well worth suffering through to find her.

Well good luck. I hope this on is 'the one.'

Then, what's stopping you? Go for it!!

I understand that you're being careful, from when we talked today, but I agree with SkyBlu. You deserve happiness. Go for it.

Very wonderfully put, sugar. When you start taking someone for granted, you start taking your relationship for granted. Let them know everyday how much you love them, not only in words, but in actions.

Just a wee bit of advice, which you take or leave at will, from Sir and I's history.

If you wonder if they feel the same and teeter back and forth, you could be losing precious time with them. Just let them know, jump in with both feet. They may surprise you and be feeling the same way, thinking YOU aren't interested in them either ;)

She knows. She just has some things she has to do before she can meet me. It gets complicated.

Let's just say that I do not enjoy coming in second under any circumstances. It doesn't make me feel very optimistic.
 
I went through a lot of BS before finding my beloved.
I must say, its worth it.
Coming home after a day that's helleaciously bad, with dr's yelling, patients crashing and shit hitting the fan (thank you psych patients)- coming home after that to someone who just takes you in thier arms without a word because they know you need it- in that moment its all worth it.
I would live through what I've been through a thousand times over to be with him, to love and be loved by him. I know of no greater joy then his happiness, no greater pain then his sorrow.

Love of that type is a wonderful, scary, beautiful, horrifying thing sometimes. But then I speak from one who's mate will need a heart transplant some day, a scary prospect.
Yet even that is not enough to "scare me off."
Its things like that, when you would rather take any and all pain because of that love, just to have it your life, that its worth all of the crap one dealt with to get there.

Okay, I've rambled on long enough.
I wish you the best of luck and joy, Betticus.
 
It's just a pretty thought, like the thread title says.

The truth is that women just don't stay with me for very long. I get the same bullshit from them most of the time when I can squeeze it out of them. If it is even the truth, it sounds really fishy. Without all of the window dressing it comes down to something along the lines of "you are too good for me".

I would love to know what that means. I don't see it or understand it. I've never felt too good for anyone so it must be a lie. I've always felt somewhat inadequate and just try harder.

Since I'm just a little bit bi and I'm not with anyone or having any kind of sex I was considering just dating men. There still wouldn't be sex as I'm not that bi but I'm pretty sure a guy wouldn't leave and tell me some crap sob story about how I make him feel like he isn't good enough and blah, blah, blah.....etc....


The woman I am interested in is driving me totally crazy. Everything clicks. She and I are greatly intrigued by each other. If we were to manage to get together the odds are that it would be just fucking incredible. Not just sex either but everything, even the mundane conversations.

It would probably mean complete fulfillment, happiness and joy for me so I am pretty sure that the chance will just be dangled in front of me only to be snatched away.

I still have hope though, for some unfathomable reason.
