No, silly.

I mean, are you emotionally available?

I'd suspect, many on the site are single.
Some, are even looking. But, are you
emotionally available, and ready, for
all the changes a new relationship will
bring into your life?

It's a very good question. I'm sure it's one that many of us consider. In my case, I'd have to say no.

I'd like to believe I am, but can't honestly say I am. I believe that's something I won't know for sure until it actually happens.

There have been other incidences in my life where I thought I was emotionally ready for something and found I wasn't. And vise versa, didn't think I was ready and found I was, I worked through it and faced the challenges that the changes brought into my life.

I do know that when something feels right to me, in my heart, I put my all into it and face whatever emotional challenge it brings, even when initially I may have doubted my ability to do so. I'm guessing it will be the same when I meet that special man, who my heart tells me is the right one for me.

Good question Rock!

I totally agree with River. (I have to say you stated it very eloquently River!)

It really depends on the situation and the man.

Thank you Daydreamer :)

I am not sure. Maybe the right gal is just knocking at the door, and I can't hear it

Yes. It took some time and work on self. I do hope I will be more cautious, not because I'm not ready, but because I tend to want to rush forward. I'd actually really love to enjoy a romantic period of getting to know each other

I'm about the same as River, and couldn't put it any better lol

with the exeption of changing "the right man" to " the right woman" obviously.

it took awhile to get there, after the last one but yep

No, I am not emotionally available at present.

I'm actually pleasantly surprised to feel this very strong "yes!" Until recently I was still dealing with the last bits and pieces, and I still couldn't get to forgiving him.
Now I feel I can. Something has shifted, softened it, and I can now forgive him. It feels like letting go of the last shred.
This is really very recent cos even as short as a week ago I couldn't forgive him. Maybe the course I was doing this week helped me shift.
No matter what, I'm happy! It feels good :D

Absolutely in every way for my friends.

I can't have a significant other because of travel and the really bad places I have to go at times.

And.... and, they would never tolerate me leaving for six months to five years, with a one day warning, let alone, just a four day jaunt in the wilderness with no warning.

My freedom to do these things is a luxury to me, and I never take it for granted.

Nope, and I’m totally fine with that. I’m happy and life is great, just
not the right time for me to consider a relationship.

It all depends on what the parameters of the relationship are. For what it seems that most women are looking for in a relationship, NO!

Nope, I rather enjoy my emotional freedom.

And having total control of the remote.

Thanks for asking Rocky️
What you see is what you get !,️️️Coldersky minus the halo yeah baby️️️

Yes. For a new beginning..how about are you ready for new relationship?

But family and Good friend makes us realizes that being single is not a big deal

If she bowls me over, I will have no choice.
But if too many red flags pop up, I'll be guarded.

Naturally we are all designed to be emotional but the wind of this generation has blown doubt n fear into the readiness to start emotional relationship with friends.i am emotional ready I only pray I meet with the Good fearing and honest one.thank you Rocky...
