Love happens whenever and wherever it happens, and our attempts to manage it are generally pointless. Opportunities are too rare to throw away. You have to take what life gives you. There are some parallels in our situations. I too went for years without meeting anyone who seemed to have any serious relationship potential. I ended up with a guy that I had known in the past, who had gotten married while he and I were not in touch with each other. But I didn't know he had gotten married until they were already separated, so there was never a triangle. Has he talked to you about what his marriage is like? Over the years, I've heard more about bad marriages than good ones. Too many people stay in unpleasant situations, waiting for something better to come along before they make a move. I don't understand that. Being alone isn't as bad as being with the wrong person.
I know nothing of his marriage... they don't live together because they don't work in the same area, but that is pretty standard for government work (and is pretty much the reason why my boyfriend and I broke up, he couldn't handle being apart for weeks at a time). Working for the Park Service or Forest Service is pretty hard on relationships since it is really hard for both people to get jobs in the same place. I think people are making too big a deal about it... mostly I was just feeling a little sad at that particular time and felt like sharing.
Totally agree with this! I am way way way happier now since breaking up with Charles even if I am alone. Being alone is not as bad as people make it out to be.
Yeah, thinking of what might have been and just having regrets is not a very healthy place to be in. Sometimes we all have times of thinking 'what if?' though...
That part was just a joke! It was geared as a 'what if' type. Its from the movie napoleon dynamite, His uncle rico keeps repeating the whole film in a pitty party. No way was it poking fun, Just some humor to lighten up the thread and the fact im an asshole! My sig pic should sum it up!
I didn't want to say anything about your sig but now that you mentioned it yeah, Dudley “Booger” Dawson Hotwater
unfortunately, i did. i know i read it right before bed the other night, but i really don't remember anything about it. the context of the thread filled in most of it for me, but i still don't really remember the OP. yeah, try telling that to 90% of the human population...
The OP was basically a drunk girl crying because she found a guy taken and she thinks it was her soulmate, nothing too special...
lol, don't worry, you aren't missing much! Basically, I'm in love with someone who is married so I can't ever be with him... blah blah blah
A soul's mate is your sense of spirit in the body. You need not mate to have this, only love. Love a child or a friend, or a plant, and your soul's sense of spirit is recognized. Of course if you just wanna get laid then some sort of partner is necessary.
