LOL...he has 3 sisters if you go that way ;)

My boyfriend proposed this morning :) We've been through mostly ups and some major downs, but the last month has been very happy. He's really made an effort to control his anger and he's treating me like I deserve. I knew he just needed to work out his issues and our trust is solid again. I'm...

I guess people who need sympathy feel the need to make a list of who cheated on them with the details if they haven't gotten over it. I just don't see the point because dwelling on it puts it back in the present. Hiding and denying isn't the same as not wanting to delve into past hurts.

I hope my opinion doesn't make you feel bad, but I'm guessing you were put on the back burner because "something better" came along for a while, then didn't end up being better, and he fell back to you. I think that would explain the no contact, then the attempt to reconnect. I could be wrong...

I used to love going to pubs with my friends to watch a game and drink, it was to be social, to feel part of a group. Now that I'm older and wiser, I don't need a group at all, and I much more appreciate silence and nature over chugging beer and telling loud stories. I'm not desperate to fit in...

For what it's worth, nice to me is defined as a guy who isn't a selfish, arrogant a-hole. I've always fallen for the "nice" guy over the tool because I want an honest man who isn't afraid of being himself. Any guy who thinks that women are attracted to men who are mean/ignore/abuse them needs to...

Why dwell on it? Everyone cheats or has been cheated on, or knows someone who's been through it. If it's cathartic, I guess you can give your stats, I don't see the point.

I don't feel as though I'm part of this world in a social aspect because I don't understand the people in our society, their actions and words confound me, I'm not inclined to want to be friendly to people because generally speaking I think most are morons, I have a cynical view of government...

I suffered extreme anxiety most of my life. When I finally sought medical help for it, it was because panic would suddenly appear out of nowhere. I could have been watching a comedy on tv and suddenly I'd be in full blown panic. It wasn't the tv show or anything I was doing in that present that...

I'm a bit of a cynic...if she's still in the long distance relationship, then her intent is to cheat with you right? If it weren't for the distance, she'd be with him, not you, that's what she said. If she's still in touch with the ldr guy, I would ask if she's actually still "seeing" him or...

I wrote a novel about my life. I wasn't able to talk about it to anyone, even to the therapist for the longest time. When I typed it all out, I felt a lot better, it didn't erase the past, but I somehow got it out. Then I was able to talk to the therapist more and more. Now I'm an open book. No...

Cowardliness and/or arrogance. They don't want to lose the comfort of their lives with their mate, but no longer feel sexually/emotionally attracted to him or her so they seek out another person for that need instead of doing the decent thing, being honest and letting their mate move on to...

Dating sites may not work for everyone, but I found my bf a year and a half ago through one and with a few ups and downs, we're solid. So saying dating sites don't work is truly subjective. They work for some, not others. Too many variables. I lived near a huge city so the dating pool was...

All of my potential dates started as online chatting through OKC. I can't answer your question because it's too subjective. I don't know the men who are not getting the replies, what their profiles are like, what criteria they indicate, how many messages they send out and what photos they...

Skafish, I think that when you are ready to take an honest objective look at yourself, your accomplishments or lack thereof, your physical appearance, your living situation, your job situation, your interest in or lack of hobbies/interests, your attitude and your goals or lack of...look in the...
