Yeah, but I think we can learn more about ourselves and choose more wisely anyway...doesn't mean we won't be attracted, just that we (hopefully) learned painful lessons and are moving forward???



Whew!, you said a mouthfull there.



I have tried and tried to make it work. I still seem to be missing something. Is it just me or do looks matter as much as I have made myself believe that they do? It's hard to see what you NEED when your blinded by what you WANT!!!frustrated

Interesting...I think I am generally attracted by some mis-guided "need" - you know, that "someone to complete" me stuff.

I think when you just choose because you WANT someone, it can be healthier and you stay in control of your emotions more. Maybe it's must semantics.

Its like this......
Some people walk and walk then they fall in a hole.
The next time they walk and walk and see the same whole and still fall in.
The next time they walk and walk and still see the whole brighter than ever and they still fall in.
The hole keeps getting deeper due to all the stupid falls.
The solution would be walk and walk and see the fricken hole and WALK AROUND it... but some never do.
Thank God for common sence... but Love is blind so some keep falling in the stinken hole...
good luck!flowerforyou


This is so true....painfully true. ;)

You would think we would use a little common sense in this area. Especially after falling into so many holes. It seems that some of us are creatures of habit. It is easy to be attracted to beautiful people, however the lust of that dies after awhile. Sometimes, I thnk we miss out by not getting to know the people that are not initially attractive to us. They may become more attractive once we get to know them. Then again, some people are ugly to the bone...

Well that goes for me, for sure! But it's more like the "I've got a crush" idiocy mode...I get tongue-tied and stupid like nobody's business. It's ridiculous...I'm old enough NOT to behave like I'm in Jr. High! Egads! :wink:

lets see I have the following choices fall in a hole over and over ... a hot stick in the eye. act like I don't give a crap... hmmmm behaviour modification at its best....



hey I just keep trying and getting smarter each time.... its all part of the grand plan of life... and yes I try and make a change but sometimes you just can't help what you like...for me its someone about 10-15 years younger then myself and of average build. low maintenance, not materialistic.. how's that for a pipe dream?

10-15 years younger, Wow duck, that's alot of years difference.

We might all need to write down what we like and examine how important those likes are and if they've worked in the past, then make some modifications.

What's the definition of insanity ya'll, lol???

I have an habit of liking the wrong person and I guess when the right person come along, I don't like them. I just don't know what to think anymore. I guess the more time I spend loving myself then that right person will come along.

That is so true. When you get tried of their mess and kick their azz to the curb then that is when they wish they treat you better and I am like Too little Too late.
