Re: This is hard.

Think of is as not settling for someone you know isn't a good fit. It's not about entitlement, but know about what and who you should settle for.

Re: This is hard.

If I may infer, part of waking up is self-actualization, having an awareness about what you want/need/desire from life and others, and a realization that you're worth more than staying in a status...

Re: Bandit's Refugees thread - check in!

I stubbed my toe, not once, not twice, but thrice. I got attacked by a wandering giraffe who escaped from a zoo. Fortunately, I was able to lure it back to its cage by playing my harmonica (Motorhead...

Hi BH,

Re: OOH - The key to a successful marriage?

OOH are good best practices, but are they truly keys to success? Imho, a successful marriage cannot be quantified. There is no formula. Chemistry and dynamic are a very important part of success....

Conrad, very sorry things are not progressing the way you'd hoped. It has been good to see you two show some promise after you've spent to much time helping others.

Re: This is hard.

I agree, jpr. You've always asked me "does this make sense?", and it always has.

My new girlfriend said one of the things she likes about me is that she never has to wonder what I'm thinking - I...

Re: This is hard.

Holy frack... there are some things that cannot be unread. ;)

Actually, thanks for the reminder. I need to manscape, and that will include a close shave of my own. A very careful one, that is.

Re: This is hard.

Well said, and I agree 100%.

My girlfriend (feels so good to type that) says she loves me for me, loves everything about me including that I'm a little bit geeky (and so is she).

Re: This is hard.

What a jerk. Clearly, to me anyway, this was his way of projecting his inadequacies on you. This speaks highly of his insecurities, his disrespect and cruelty. A mean-spirited comment is one thing....

Re: when does it get better?

Spun, first off, I am sorry you're going through this. My walk through hell started in December 2011. It took me 3.5 months to grieve the loss of my marriage, and another 3 to get closure. In my...

In some cases, some marriages can survive affairs. I am not an expert on this, as my ex simply walked away, at least to my knowledge. Trust is of paramount importance to me, and once violated like...
