DING DING DING DING DING!!! Thank you for summing up my life! Thought I'd found the right man, but after living with him for 5 years, came to realise that loving someone isn't enough, you have to be able to live with them, respect them, and make compromises for them, and just as importantly they have to be prepared to make compromises in return. I still adore him, and I still think of his parents as mine, but we're happier as friends than we ever were as a couple. And I'm so thankful that we made the decision to break up before we actually went through with the ceremony and before I got pregnant, because both of those things are 'forever after, like it or not' for me . As far as I am concerned, you better make sure you are damn ready to dance before you ask the devil to start the music.


Exactly - someone can be an amazing individual and great friend, but not be compatible as a partner or husband.

Actually, this is one of the reasons I'm moving out of my hometown - I never planned on being here anyway, but very few men in my age range move to town who are not already married or living with someone who followed them here. It makes for slim pickens! Getting out in the world should give me a much better chance of meeting someone who is compatible. It isn't my goal, but it would be a nice bonus. Since I never dated much to begin with and I'm well out of practice after living here so long, I may have some dating horror stories in the coming year. :oops: If they aren't too bad, I'll be sure to share them! :lol:


You will find someone just wait and see hon.I am so out of pratice it has been so long since i have dated myself.But i am willing to try it again.But where do you meet the men???I don't go to bars anymore not my cup of tea. :wink: :lol:


I don't go to bars either and that's all there is in this town! My best friends met their husbands while they were in the same programs at university. I'm finishing a degree through the distance ed program, but I almost wonder if I shouldn't go back to campus. At my age though, I would either have to meet guys in graduate programs or find single professors! :lol:

Edit: When I lived in a bigger city, I followed my interests and joined a couple of clubs (one was a Jiu-Jitsu dojo) for no other reason than I wanted to be there - the bonus was that I did meet some great guys who shared the same interests, so joining a club is a good place to start!



Good for you hon go for it. :wink: Maybe joining some clue maybe the way to go.I guess i need to check it out myself.Good Luck with everything :wink:

I dated myself once. The sex was decent, but I just didn't get along with myself that well. I never called and I was a little too insensitive sometimes. But I was able to remain friends, so that's good.

Arianddu, you would be a fine catch for any guy....................be picky. You have it going on and they need to be appreciative of what a sweetie you are. Your a tremendous friend, that makes you prime choice to have. You always have time. It was not till I was 39 that I truely married the right one. I settled when I was young............wrong! :shock: Many heartaches later I found Dan. He took all the sadness and loneliness away. That is when it is right. You feel as one. :D

I gotta agree with SherriBerry. ^^^^^^^ Every time I see your username or avatar I can't help but think of that heartwrenching story you posted half-a-year ago. I always wondered what became of that......., but since I don't really know anything else about you, I never felt it was my business to ask. It's good to hear things are working out. :D

I'd forgotten about that.

Anyway, only a couple of people here know about what happened last fall (it makes everything else pale in comparison)...they are probably incredulous (some of my friends are mad at me for staying with her), but she has done a 180 and I love her desperately. Most of all, our son is thriving.

Hey Dan,

Sorry I didn't respond sooner... I'm blonde and I got distracted after I read your original post! :wink: I do know your situation, and I'm glad it's working out for the two of you. I just hope you don't get burned. People can change though, so I really hope she has changed and that you and your son have a good wife/mother. I wish you the best buddy, and I can't wait to rock out in Charlotte again with you sometime! :D
