Have you ever had something in your life that you thought would be good and then it turns out you were wrong? Or almost make a decision that would have turned your life upside down, but then fate stepped in and something even better happened or came into your life? Well... I did and I haven't been this happy in months If this has happened to you share it, if not share that too, or just feel to jack the crap out of this thread.

hey girl

ya know, life is funny... just when it seems you know what youre doing, something happens to remind you that you have no idea what the hell is going on. i understand completely what youre saying here and i think its great that things are working out the way they are for you you deserve this happiness...

sometimes the turns in the road of life are very sharp, you can either fall off the road and quit... or go forward, sometimes a little battered, maybe even bruised, but, if you just keep going forward, it always turns out that something BETTER is just around the corner doesnt it ????


much love sweetie

Well, I'm not really keen about posting it after people suggested I might be fake.
But since I could care less about them, here goes:
My brother, about 10 years ago has made a terrible mistake. He liked risks, and needed quick money to go to the states. So he did a foolish thing, which has cost him to be sent to prison in Egypt. He wasn't sure about doing this, and it was a last minute decision to take the risk afterall, which was a mistake.
But luckily he was strong enough to survive, and eventually escape to freedom, after almost 5 years in hell.

I've made a decision a long time ago that I would move to the states. still trying. Hopefully, the decision of leaving my home country, and being far from my family, won't be a mistake. I'm pretty sure I will be able to get along and live a better life. or at least manage to work hard and earn some monney so one day I can return to my home country (if I won't feel at home in the states) and retire there.

youre not fake sweetheart, in fact, you might be one of the very few REAL people here

This thread was inspired by a conversation that naked and I had earlier today and I've come to realize that what I thought was important isn't and the way things have turned out are how they should be and saved me alot more heartache down the road...so thank you naked AND HEAVENLY you know better then to think I would EVER think that about you So thank you for posting that

I thought so too. But it seems they know better

Without going to in depth; Yes. Most definitely. Primarily love. I suppose we have to go through things and weed out all the crap and obstacles to reach whatever it is we're suppose to. Wether it be jobs, friends, goals, dreams, career, love...many times I've thought and still think, "Is this good for me?". Other times I try to convince myself that it is. I suppose I'm at a point where I've given up. And I don't necessarily mean that in a negative way. I mean...if something's good, it's gonna stick. Do I still search for what I feel will be beneficial to me? Sure. But I've also let go and learning to let go more each day. For me, though I still struggle with it, I know God will give me what's best, and eventually I'll realize it. So, I guess what I'm trying to say, is that if something/someone good comes into your life...even though for a brief moment; and it's good, then so be it. If it turns bad, at times it'l hurt, but you gotta move on. I've made some really crap decisions in my life and have to deal with the consequences. Now that I look back, it's taught me to spot the good, the bad, and sometimes the ugly, a lot sooner.

Not sure if any of that made any sense; you just caught me in a mood. I'm glad whatever it is you're going through is making you happy. Happy is good.
Right?

I know you wouldn't. That's why I posted my story on YOUR thread.
Nobody knows what would've happened if you've decided otherwise. we can only guess/assume.
Could've been better, could've been worse. but what IS important, is that the decision you DID make, eventually made you a very happy person.

Two years ago, I was having an affair with an older man who had a wife and a baby. I felt so bad about it, wanted to break up with him every day, but I just couldn't. I was in love, so bad, it hadn't happened to me for several years. Everyday I kept "praying" for the strength to step out of it, and I just couldn't...I thought that I wouldn't be able to love someone else...

until my recent boyfriend stepped into my life. He's Portuguese and I had already met him at a party 5 years earlier, but never seen him again afterwards. Anyway when I met him again my life changed completely. I broke up with this other man (the next day!), without sadness for losing him! And my boyfriend broke up with his girl... Everyone thought we were crazy, that it wouldn't last... Still, one year and a half later, we're still together, living together, loving each other, keeping the love so strong I start trembling when I write about it!

I don't want to think what would have happened if I hadn't met him. I don't think anything or any one could have given me the strength he gave to me !

EverSoLesa said:

Thanks girl ! It feels a bit strange to tell this story on the internet, normally I'm rather careful with these things. But still, a story about love has never hurt some one, did it?

MarieLouise said:

EverSoLesa said:

yeah i did something i thought would be good, but it backfired.

I feel like I'm getting my punishment at the minute but hopeing it's gonna be over soon and I get a few rewards for not seeking vengence on the people (and there have been a few recently) who have screwed me about.



taking each day as it comes and giving myself as many opportunitys as possible.

Im happy you are happy I can't really say anything overly major like that has happened to me (or at least anything I can remember) I usually go with my instincts so I make few wrong turns...And if I do they are not major...

Sinister said:

Things are perfect but such is life lol. But in the last few days I came to realize a few things and found happiness in how things turned out. Things will turn around for you and I ment to post on your B-Ball thread and say congrats and hope you have fun And thank you most of all for posting here

EverSoLesa said:

Thanks so much sweetie...You are too good to me...

Sinister said:

Well I try

MarieLouise said:

Well done!

EverSoLesa said:

Yes, I've had a case of this. A few years back, I almost had a full blown affair with someone yet we were both married to different people. If I would have went any further, things would have definitely turned my life upside down. But fortunately, fate stepped in and she turned out to be a psycho bitch from hell. I set things right with my wife again, and she and I are better off than we were at the time because we both had issues to work out. In the end, I confessed to my wife and she forgave me and we had a happy ending, and the psycho bitch from hell ruined her life by having a big affair with someone else and ended up being divorced and stuck with three kids, one of whom was the result of her affair with this other guy.
