Topic: Laura's Choice. | |
---|---|
I was very bummed out last night. If I'm going to be honest and vulnerable here..I have to say it was to tears. It really isn't important what it was about. Something along the lines of loneliness for a man in my life....some pathetic hole I had tripped and fallen into.....
So here's the thing. Some guy emailed me. It isn't that the guy emailed me....or even what he said.....or even who he was... He inserted my own profile blog into the email....and I read it. I read the part that said..."I believe everyday happiness is a choice". BAM!! Hit upside the head with my very own words. So I had a choice to make.... I know that some, if not, lots of you feel the same way sometimes...and fall into the same deep pit of depression because you feel the emptiness of your arms. And if you can manage to squeeze by that big blob of dark that attempts to suffocate you....it's really just as simple as making a choice...and looking to the possibilities. I tell you this because many of you have become friends and I would be remiss if I were to not share this little epiphony with my friends. Big hugs to my fellow lonelies.... |

give it time.make yourself feel good it will attract others

but that reminds me of an old episode from the 70's of All In The Family Where Archie Bunker uses Edith's own words to make himself look better. Just a random kinda related thought I felt like throwing out there.

You need to lighten up and not take things so seriously. I think you are making the same mistake I did when I got on the internet dating sites almost two years ago. I believed all the hype about meeting someone. Instead of finding a nice guy I found liars and cheaters. So, after 13 months of meeting creeps, I realized that I have to make my own happiness .... that I am not going to find it on the internet. In connection with the above, I started going out to dance clubs even though I am not a very good dancer. I met several men who were interested in dating me. They were real men and sincere, not the lying internet jerks. However, I wasn't attracted to them. Unfortunately, I had a terrible accident and have been homebound for five months and I just started physical therapy. However, in another two months when I am better, I am going to go back to the dance clubs since I believe that sooner or later I will meet a nice guy that I will be attracted to and can start dating. You? Quit counting on the internet to find someone. Go out into the real world and look there for someone to fill your empty arms. I edited this to add a p.s. Go to dance clubs. Go to singles parties. Go to evening school. Go to the book stores where they have coffee shops. Pick up the Friday papers where they have the entertainment section listing what is going on over the weekend. Maybe you will see an event where you will meet someone. I went to a wine tasting event at the Museum of Art in Philadelphia, which isn't too far from me. I don't drink wine, but I had a great time interacting with the other people there .... didn't meet anyone, but it was a wonderful way to spend a Wednesday evening. In other words, go out there and make an effort and forget about meeting someone on this site. It isn't going to happen. Just use this site to interact on the threads and have fun that way. |
