Dating Spanish woman and getting seriously involved with her, 1000 miles from her Home&Family&Friends.
could not speak our language, could not stand our weather, and i had no "friends&family" she could connect to.

never again date a woman whom you can not [never ever under no circumstances] give everything she needs to physically and mentally survive(at the very least).
she will end up miserable despite my best efforts, and you have to let her go back to the place she was happier.
and that will be quite... painful

dated cute mother of girl
suddenly she was pregnant ...again...
math says it must have been while i was away for 7 weeks
questioning reveals she had been "lonely"

never again get seriously involved with a woman who has in the past been unfaithful. That was dumb. That was really dumb.

met pregnant chick about to get tossed to the curb by her weird Boyfriend
offered shelter for months
weird Boyfriend comes over while i am not there
she opens
he goes berserk in my apartment.
never againplay captain-save-a-ho! that was reeeeally expensive. What a dum sonofagun i was.


OMG Please make a SIGN and place it around your home/apartment/dwelling >>> 'I DO NOT RUN A HOME FOR HUMANS THAT NEED FIXING' and STOP trying to be a 'Nurse Nightingale' to the world of women that take advantage of men! You sound like a real nice guy...treat yourself like you deserve a NICE WOMAN and raise that bar of expectations! WOW - SERIOUSLY - WOW

11years in a relationship thinking that loving someone was enough...at the end i was wrong because they have to love you back. I learned it had nothing to do with who i was or presently am. I tried to hold on to something that didnt want to be held on to.


A whole lot of TRUTH in that statement Scorpio; and sadly to often ignored and forgotten when people assume that no matter what they do/how much they invest/how hard they work at the marriage/friendship/shack up...that they will over come whatever is 'BUGGING' the other person! Nope, no-way...can't force that and it eventually just drives a deeper wedge between what might have been a good friend w/benefits - LOL

My Learning Curve: Finally getting out of a 4 year mentally & physically abusive relationship while in college. He'd followed me through high school right along into my first 2 years of college and I finally got a back bone! I spare you all those horror stories {because they really are all the same} but I've never been a door mat ever again! The last human that came close was an ole flame from my high school days; once he'd learned that my husband had passed he wanted to reconnect and I was vulnerable and needed a friend...long story short! My coming home to find him once again lounging on my sectional amid a house covered with food wrappers and dirty clothes/his dog mess/trash/newspapers/junk...I went into the kitchen grabbed the 10# bag of russet potatoes and dropped them onto his gut; stating --- see these potatoes serve a purpose --- SADLY YOU DO NOT - HIT THE ROAD BEFORE MY FOOT HITS YOUR ARSE!!! And he departed all the while - telling me what a absolute 'HORROR' I was for being so mean!
My gal pals and I still LOL about this on our 'wine & cheese' nights! No - I am NOT A DOOR MAT - NO MORE - NO HOW - NO WAY!

Describe a situation or event in which you learned something from your mistakes & learned something about yourself.


Last summer, I put on a helmet and flippers and ran in circles around Robot World in Wisconsin Dells.

I learned that doing that can get you arrested...grumble

Late one night about 12 years ago, I got home after a long day of harvesting.
My brother's number was on my phone's call display. This was before I had cell service, had only landline.
He had called not long before I had gotten in. I called him, but no answer.
I had a gut feeling something was not right. But I was tired and had to be up early again next day.
So I went to sleep. The next days were busy, so I forgot about it.
4 days later, his body was found. He had killed himself. Time of death was estimated to be about the time I tried calling him.
I don't ignore my gut feelings any more.

LDR's - never again.... I'm not a jealous person so I don't worry about cheating and all that but I do need the person I'm with to be around. I can't be in a relationship if the person isn't physically there.

That good qualites like being loving, thoughtful, generous.. etc. Can be misinterpreted by foolish, or evil people. And they will try to take advantage of you or try to treat you like a door matt. Enough is enough. No, has become my favorite word.



I feel the same way about that ;) People who pretended to care about me, thought I was vulnerable, just because I'd just come out of hospital. I didn't say that I felt unhappy. I guess they just thought it would be funny to let me down, and pretend. I know better now. They were never real friends. They've never came to check up on me, after I've lived with them aswell. I'm certainly not attending their birthday parties. It says a lot about them. At least my newest friends say what they mean.

Oh yea.. the back stabbers & soul suckers.
It hurts like hell, then anger.
But a stranger said to me & now I say to you.

People are in our lives for a reason, a season or a lifetime. But always to learn from. Sometimes it is to learn how not to be. Sometimes it is to learn to walk away. bigsmile

I've learned not to date men who say they like more conservative and less liberal women...it means they don't believe in equality between men and women/ are abusive towards real women.





You are wrong again, Estelle. I am a conservative woman, and I believe in equality between the sexes, and I'm not abusive towards women.

You are a negative and miserable person. Good luck with that.

That I can't take a certain male friend seriously. He always says things like "I'm the sanest person in the room", "Don't tell any of our other friends, but you're my favorite", "My mother always told me that I could have any woman I wanted, because I'm handsome". Ugh. Do me a favour. How vain can one person get?

Was thinking that trying to put fractured family back together would ever work. Once people grieve and move on they may pay a little lip service to being family again but it really is not going to work any more than pretending to be family with strangers.

I've learned that no matter how old we get we will always make mistakes.. It all depends on what your actions are when you realized it was a wrong choice and how you deal with life after..whoa

heard some good things about omegle video chat and decided to check it out without researching anything about it. i learned doing research does have advantages, and that i don't enjoy watching men masturbate
