I think that's similar to what Christopher would say.

I jumped in right away, he took a little bit. Well, like a week.

HamsterHuey said:

Well, by that definition, I've got an abundance!

PunkMistress said:

week???

Do you still have those shoes??

AndGodCreatedMe said:

My wedding shoes? Yes, but I've never had occasion to wear them again.

I bought my dress with the idea in mind that I'd be able to wear that again, too, but I haven't done that either.

PunkMistress said:

You definatly looked great Erin and me thinks we need you need to find an ocassion that you will be able to wear them again

It's so cute that you call him Christopher

AndGodCreatedMe said:

He's my sweet Christopher.

PunkMistress said:

So happy that you two found eachother

PunkMistress said:

As if he wasn't trying to get fresh like Doug E.'s crew

I've been thinking about it...

No, I don't believe in "love at first sight". Lust, maybe, but not love.
I don't really believe in soulmates either. But then again, I haven't found that person yet, and don't have too much hope for doing so.
When I was younger, I just knew that I'd be swept off my feet by "that person" and everything would be okay. Now at my age, I just want to find someone who I can tolerate, who will put up with me so I don't end up all alone.

The one person who I thought it could be has been nothing but issue after issue, drama and nonsense.
Love at First Sight? How about Love At All.

As much as I totally believe in love at first sight as I have experienced it myself I just wish love would not exist at all. The pain when you loose somebody you love is not worth it IMO.

Serious said:

Thank you, too.

Serious said:

nooo! even after having someone i loved very much hurt me in innumerable ways, i still would never want it to not exist.

evenstar3 said:

Even though I am finally in a (long distance) relationship with the man who I consider the love of my life I wish it would not exist . At times when I was alone and not in love with anybody I was doing okay. Love just makes me much too vulnerable.

evenstar3 said:

I have to agree with you.

I thought I loved someone up until early last year, but in hindsight, I was just rebounding from my previous relationship, which was disastrous and drawn out. It left me feeling quite selfish and resentful towards others. But when the dust cleared, I cam to realize you can't just give up because you ended up with somebody like that.

I look back on it now with a certain amount of repulsion, but mostly just this blessed thankfulness that I'm not there anymore. And, I'm developing feelings for someone again, but at a much slower, cooler, more reflective pace.

Plus, love can be fun once you get over the past nightmare.


I have a feeling we'd be gossipy school girls in a bar.

I wish love didn't exist either.
I love someone with all my heart, but it's not reciprocated. I am heartbroken.
He's a good friend, and I do believe he cares about me, but I know he doesn't feel the same way....

I wasn't happy when I wasn't in love, but at least I didn't feel the emptiness I feel now.

Serious said:

i understand the dislike of being vulnerable for sure

chocolate1 said:

For me the pain of being heartbroken is not worth the positive feelings of being in love.

evenstar3 said:

Thank you . When I love somebody that person is all that matters to me. I think I am just too sensitive for love or maybe life in general .

TheVoid said:

we really would be

i never got to a resentful place i don't think...i actually started being nicer to everyone than usual because i felt so fragile and shitty. i much prefer having my normal feisty personality back though. i feel like i had poison washed out of my system or something

love is fucking awesome. proper full-on infatuation is, even! a couple friends of mine have told me they think i'm in love right now, but i waaaay disagree. it could be love someday, but right now it's just the strongest crush i've ever had. i'll never rush into anything again.

Yes I do.

yes. my wife's mom and my mom were in elementary school together, and stayed as friends. they moved to another state and we'd see each other once every few years.
i had gotten out of a bad relationship and was starting to date again, when my mom said, why not call so and so's daughter, who's working in manhattan...? I hadn't seen her in about 10 years and I was waiting in the lobby of her office building to pick her up..my back was towards her and she said my name aloud..I turned around and saw her face and said to myself, this is going to be the woman I marry. and I did.

TheVoid said:

Bitch, I'm too young for you.

I am sitting on the back of the Vespa.

Waitinggggg.

I am sitting in my bed.

chocolate1 said:

I understand this completely. My ex was my best friend. I probably miss that more than any other aspect of our relationship. I know he loved me as much as he was capable of loving, but his version of love and mine were two completely different stories. I tried for years to find a way to make it work but when you're not getting your basic emotional needs fulfilled how can you be happy? I did learn one valuable lesson though, I'll never settle again.

And hey, I'm only a year younger than you so stop that at my age stuff! We've still got plenty of time to find love!
