shanti0608 said: HamsterHuey said: Thanks for being so open, Val. Relationships are hard at times, but I am still hoping to find someone I have a natural report with. My tendency has been to fall for guys that are totally opposite of myself, resulting in two long relationships that were filled with battle and not much peace of mind. Lots of love, just not peace of mind, the fighting eventually breaking the second relation apart (the first one did not last because of other reasons). But as you, I see the pattern and try to break through it. Real hard, considering that indeed this pattern is forced on me unsuspectedly, so it created unsuspected pits to fall in. But being aware of the pattern helps cutting through the crap WAY quicker than I used to be able to. Well it can go both ways. My first long term relationship started having serious problems because we were too different and we struggled to meet in the middle on things. The reason for me finally throwing in the towel was due to something that I felt I could not get past nor forgive him for. I was not going to make both of us suffer together when I was filled with rage and hurt that I could not heal from while we were together. So after that I fell for someone that was too much like me. In the beginning it was great, no effort really. No compromises..it just worked for us. He was safe and I did not have to worry about struggling with the same issues that I had before. After some time though I started to realise that neither one of us was growing. We were so much alike that we did not encourage change and it got stagnate. There were other issues that ended up forcing me to make a move and end it so we could both find some happiness. It is tough to find a balance. I am hoping that I finally found the right balance for me and for him as well. Both parties have to be committed and have the same goals. It is not an easy thing to find. Reading this really made me thankful for my husband. I found someone with whom I have many shared interests and views, which makes it easy to deeply enjoy the time we spend together, and provides a kind of built-in glue for our personalities. And at the same time, we have wildly differing views on many important topics, and vastly different life experiences to balance the ones that seem eerily almost identical. This keeps things spicy and provides a great opportunity to learn from each other, to question our own long-held views and assumptions, and to have really fun play-fights. The Normal Whores Club | |

the reason i want the one-on-one forever thing at this point in my life is because i'm ready to start getting serious about having a home and a family and enjoying the domestic aspects of being in a relationship. i mean, i'm 37 - i wanna remodel some shit and varnish some chairs and things.
at this point, while i enjoy the lovey-dovey romantic headbuzz of being very much in love with someone, i'm more digging on the practical bliss of being in a relationship than i have in the past. it's something that matters to me now, and it's something i enjoy being a part of. | |

Of course if I was not with the man I am now, I may have a different opinion. But I love the history that comes with being with the same person for so long. Both of my parents have now passed on, no one else could know what they were like and why I am the way I am without actually knowing them. My husbands Mother has passed, and she was a witch, god bless her, but she was...but I am glad I met her and now understand some of my husbands quirks. I love the fact we can go back in time in our conversations, and say "remember when" and we both do, we can go back in our thoughts 27 years!! Back when we were both young, not a grey hair or wrinkle insight. I adore him, and he adores me. Our love only get's stronger with time. I would never dump him to start over, dear god no..
Thank you! Thank you, I am a lucky lady! | |
