lol its pretty sad.

REDFEATHERS said:

Yeah, I've only ever had my 'heart broken' once, and I don't think the guy was trying to 'see how far' my feelings would go.

I think he just wasn't that into me.

It's possible to like someone more than they like you. It doesn't mean they're being cold blooded. Some people have a shitty ass way of letting you know that though. Or some people may let you go on falling for them, when they know they're not into you back. Is that what you mean?

I dont know.. I am open to all replies.. and opinions..

it can be dangerous though cos friends, work colleagues etc etc.. once you have let your guard down they know your weak spot and yes it has been played with in the past, so it could turn out to be your own most dangerous weapon they use on you

Dani I think you are assuming that all people are good and sometimes they might just have really bad soical skills, or some need for affection that would allow someone to fall for them even if they didn't feel that way back at all...and all of that is true...but there are also some cold blooded fuckers out there that are just predators. Plain and simple.

Yeah, I do have that thing where I think everyone is just lovely. And when they're not I make excuses for them.

Ps. Red, I love your shoe.

SureThing said:

I do that too.

REDFEATHERS said:

Both are not healthy, imo. What I mean is, bottling up leads to an emotional explosion (which usually comes out as some sort of break down) at some point and wearing your heart on your sleeve usually means that you can very easily be taken advantage of.

I was a bottler for many years until I seriously cracked...then I did a 180 and wore my heart on my sleeve and that had awful results as well. I guess you have to truly do both extremes first to be able to finally find a decent balance.

Yes, I am a big softie at heart too.. I am just TOO soft..

but I see it as a strength as well as a weakness.. its a good character to have

Oh thanks too.. I have it in different colours and combinations.. its from my new range..

Sweeny79 said:

That's pretty much how I feel.

REDFEATHERS said:

i dunno

I think it all depends on how you judge the situation/person in hand. Every relationship is different.

be real and speak what you feel. life is all about taking risks. you have a risk of either that person feeling the same way about you as you feel about them, or they don't feel that way. if they don't, then you have to walk with you head held up high and keep it moving. easier said than done i know, but life is way too short to keep feelings to yourself. everybody is going to die someday, and that day could be today, tomorrow, next year, or 20 years from now, life is unpredictable. i would feel terrible if i was in love with someone, and kept those feelings to myself out of fear of rejection or pride and then they die in a car accident or worse. i wouldn't forgive myself for not letting that person know how i felt before they died.

to keep feelings inside is not healthy. it can lead to alot of physical, mental, and emotional issues.

certainly one can say things in a careful manner, but to keep everything inside is a sure way to making oneself sick.

that'll be $215 (rates went up Jan. 1st)...make sure to book early, i'm busy this time of year

i don't think it's better to at all. you can be empathetic with people and still keep your guard up, IMO

I do a combination of both! If you are too emotional, it scared people and makes them weird. If you are too guarded it makes u seem like a stonecold recluse!

Hearts suck.


I wish they'd all blow the fuck up already.
