Any ideas? I always get too involved with someone too soon, and inevitably end up hurt for various reasons. It never fails seems like. How do I handle this and more importantly break this cycle? Take things incrementally. If either of you start getting ahead of yourselves, slow down and remember that slow-and-steady wins the race. |

Be patient. Relationships take time to develope. Have learned that the hard way. Those who rush in often rush out. 
Yeah just gotta relax, I invest too much too quick, and then get let down. Best thing to do is take it slow, and I am going to try my best to do that from now on, starting with the one I'm interested in now. 
Yeah....I've decided I set a boundary as to how far I will go feeling and physical wise.... Who, if I may be so bold? Rather not say, at least publically. If you really want to know, send me a PM. |

Good question. At one extreme one can be in the single lifestyle and feel lonely and at the other extreme one can be in the couple lifestyle and feel trapped. Currently I have a relationship that seems to work for me. Some would call it courting. It is like a little more than being single but a little less than being a couple. I have even heard some refer to it as having a main squeeze. It just doesn't involve sex though and we both have our own houses. It is a relationship built on mutual respect and does have a certain amount of commitment. If men are from Mars, and women are from Venus, and we live on Earth - how does Pluto enter into a friendship?

How do I handle this and more importantly break this cycle? been there, done that, still find myself doing it. Learn to like yourself. Don't let someone else's opinion of you dictate how you feel about yourself. It's comforting to feel liked from someone you care about, but if they can't accept you for who you are, then move on and don't look back!
