Pining

is the nauseous feeling i'm experiencing pining?
Depends. What's causing it? Is it desire for something that seems unattainable? Pining doesn't usually cause nausea, just an undefined ache just behind the breastbone, spreading from armpit to armpit.

Thinking good thoughts straight on back., and mentally returning the hug. Hope things have been <ahem> more in tune between you and your man.

Thanks.

Yes

Pining, what a great word.

I have been doing just that for the past couple of months. I function well enough. I laugh, I joke, I do my job but I still feel the pain. The relationship that introduced me to all of "this" had ended and it hit me much harder than I thought it would. Last week a friend invited me to a cabin she had in The Smokey Mountains where I spent 6 days trying to learn how to move on.

I think it worked.

Good for you. Hope it all goes well from here on.

YES.

That is the perfect definition. It's constant. It doesn't go away.

You can learn to live with it, but eventually it reminds you that it's still there.

Yearning, aching, constantly aware of a gaping hole in you that is lacking something vitally important to be complete.

Sometimes, I am so desperate to fill this hole, I will go back and re-read old words, in hopes of dulling the pain, even for a little while. It allows me to pretend that the hole will someday be repaired and made complete instead of patched over and re-painted.
 
I am the Queen of Pine. He laughs at me from time to time. Sometimes I wish that he and I weren't such good friends. It would make it easier for me to get over the loss of our erotic life and move on to the next future pining object.

Maybe it is the mood I am in, but I don't see the point of pining.

When bad things happen it is better to focus on what has been wonderful and what potential the future holds.

Pining just puts life on hold. Life carries on, when you are pining a person it doesn't make it easier. It just makes life harder.

Ok, maybe I am being a bitch, but this is the toned down version

Oh I dunno, I like the positive, proactive message in this. :rose:

It does, absolutely. Pining is paralytic.
 
I pine for genuine intimacy and closeness. For a LTR.

It does put that part of my life on hold but I'm able to get on with everything else.

So I guess my heart's paralytic.










Well that explains a lot... hic! :D
 
I've kind of stopped doing this. I used to.

I've pretty much realized that other people are a plus, if they aren't they don't need to be there. I am more interested in whether I am generally on an upward trend or not, altogether.

Miss? Wonder what might be? Wish for stuff? Sure, but I don't like to wallow in it.
