Wellll.... This is more of a blog topic.... I blog. This is what I do; so, I thought I'd share one of my blogs with you today.

Have you ever just wanted to say something to a lover, but "refrained" because you feared that they would leave or maybe not feel the same? Admitting what we want from another person is sometimes difficult because it sets us up for rejection. But, believe me, it's the best thing that YOU can do for yourself. Love has a way of breakin' us down but also makin' us stronger. I've realized that I will and can survive anything that is handed to me during the rest of my life.

So? Where does that us once we admit our true feelings? Vulnerable! No simpler way to put it. Sometimes we just need to have faith and let go. I've found a strength in me that I never knew I had or existed. It's faith that I will be ok. To be able to love someone in this capacity is so enlightening. YEAH FOR LOVE! :-)

One has to come to a realization that you REALLY DO deserve to have what you want and need in life and you won't get it by not asking for it. We harbor our feelings and emotions because the world has somehow caused us to be more reserved and cold. The internet has brought forth many "good" connections, but we disconnect on some levels. We function without the personal touch. The way of the world has tarnished love and relationships. Do relationships truly exist anymore? Does love? Sometimes we just accept life because it's familiar and we're comfortable with it.... We don't don't take a leap of faith because we fear the unknown. Now? That DOES NOT MEAN THAT YOU GO PULL SOME DARE DEVIL STUNT!

Do you have a difficult time telling a lover how you feel? And, why? Are you afraid of being alone? Are you afraid of rejection?

I would agree! I've got better things to do.

Do you twitter? And, you thought twitter was naughty! Well, almost!

The rise of social-networking sites led to the addition of Twitter (the noun) and twitter (the verb) to the dictionary along with "gourmet sex"!

Gourmet Sex? (Lovemaking that is particularly passionate and enjoyable).... And, here was thinkin' I was just having sex. I'VE BEEN HAVIN' GOURMET SEX! NOW! WHERE IS DON? IS DON IN THE HOUSE?

Could you "twitter" while having "gourmet sex"?

A few other "new" additions to the dictionary:

Frugalista: a person who tries to stay fashionably dressed on a budget.... (Now, that's my sister!)

Beer o'clock: The time of day when it is acceptable or customary to start drinking alcohol.... (Do we REALLY need a definition for "beer o'clock?)

Twitterverse: The social-networking site Twitter and its users. We are now living in the Twitterverse!

If you could add a word to the dictionary, what would your word be and what does it mean?


My word is:

Sexi-matic tingles: Sweet sensations of sexual delight that floods through ones body when have very intimate thoughts of one particular person. (or, maybe more than one, I suppose)....

Yer right. He wasn't that awesome. Acceptance is half the battle.

Sweet for you to say. And, I would agree. He's a con-artist.

That is one of my faults. I don't get angry. I may be 51, but I'm so damn naive.... I always tell my friends, I'm not meant to live in this world. There's so many liars; fakes and idots. My heart is so damn soft.

I don't think it could have gotten worse. Seriously. I wouldn't EVER wanna feel this much pain again. I just wanted to fall asleep and not wake up; that's how much I hurt.

Beware of wolves in sheeps clothing....

True on convincing my heart. If our minds only had control over our hearts. Words of wisdom, that you wrote here. The lies are really devastated me.

Such a great story for you! Good luck!

I think the internet makes it more accessible to cheat. But, I would agree on focusing on things that matter. I've leaned on some special friends. Doesn't matter how old we get, it still hurts. Had actually forgotten that I wrote this last night until I came to sign on Mingle. Had a tough night. (And, NO, I wasn't drunk!) lol

This is true. Thank you. Coming to terms with it is half the battle.

That you for the support. Sometimes it's just comforting to know that you're not the only one that hurts.

I am going through a real tough time. For the last year or so, I've been dating someone. We met on an online website. The tough part of it was that I had expected that he was messin' around with other women on the website; but, he'd told me that he wasn't. I wanted to believe what he said, even though deep down, I didn't.

I got my answer and it was as I'd expected. He'd been seeing other women. I was and am totally crushed. I fell in love with the man. It was one of those relationships that every little girl dreams of being in when we grow up. He was my knight in shining armor. Handsome; very well built; a Chip 'n Dale dancer; body builder; blond; tanned....

He touched my soul and I was glowing. He made me smile. I thought of him and my eyes sparkled; my body tingled in all the right places. My heart ached. The attraction was instant. I love him deeply and like I've never loved anyone.

Honestly, this has floored me. It's torn me apart. I've never hurt this bad before. I wake up aching; fall asleep aching. There's day when I just want the pain to stop; but, it doesn't. So? How do I get past this? When will the hurt stop? There's nights that I wish I'd just fall asleep and not wake up. It hurts that bad.

Have you ever had someone touch your soul?

There's so many opportunities online; so much temptation. I'm not sure love can be found online. Can it? Have you found love online? Did it last? If it didn't? Why'd things end?

She wants you there in case the other relationship doesn't work out. Always nice to have someone else willing to "stand by"... She's got you on "auto pilot".... She's drivin'; you're along for the ride waiting for the finale, which probably is gonna mean, she's gonna tell you she's with someone else.

I wish you the best; but, let go. Do yourself a favor. You're better than that and certainly don't let her play you for a fool. We all have sit-e-ations in life that we're vulnerable to; and, we act as door mats to the other person. No particular reasons; we just let one person into our hearts that will use our emotions until we finally step up to the plate and say, "I've had enough." I sympathize with your dilemma; but, this won't end in your favor. Start dating; get out there and most of all.... look out for you; she's not going to.

I also think you need to re-read what you wrote. It's clear; just accept that. Acceptance is half the battle in relationships that don't work out. REMEMBER: It's not about you or her.... neither of you are bad people.... Doesn't mean anything is wrong with you.... Keep yer chin up and move on.

Yes. I wanna hear honesty. 100%

In this economic sit-e-ation that we are in, I don't think the tax payers would pick up the tab. But, then, again.

Hey! Thanks!
