I would rather be alone than spend my time in the company of someone who is not right for me. If you can't be alone and be happy in your own company, then you probably won't be happy in a relationship. If you are happy with yourself you are not going to be desperate to just jump into something with just anyone to keep from being alone. You have the luxury of time to explore and see if the person has a place in your world. one guy I had written to for maybe a week started asking me if I thought he was "the one"..creeped me right out and I had to stop talking to him. I can't look that far ahead. hikerchick I have said the same, hopefully they listen to you Thanks Fran. Some people do seem kinda desperate and I feel sorry for them. They need to love themselves first. It confuses the heck of some people - as southern bee has found..but then, those are not going to be the kind of people you want to be with anyway. You need someone who can travel on the same emotional/intellectual wavelength. People who can't understand why you aren't desperate aren't worth your time. |

Ordinarily, I would say yes, people do move too fast these days. But I'm currently in without a doubt (so far) the best relationship I've had to date. And, go figure, it moved a hell of a lot faster than any of my others.

I have been preaching those same words today, why is it the people tend to want to blame or turn over the responsibility of their happiness to other people. Hell if I cant be happy by myself why would I want to make anyone miserable??? I wouldnt. I accept that I and only I am responsible for how I feel. I just chose to remain positive and it works for me... |

so i dont know if its just me and how i was raised but here it goes.. im a member of another singles site and some random guy asked me if i was single and if i was looking i told him i was but im not looking,he ran away as soon as i told him i wasnt looking..what ever happend to being friends first and knowing the person well enough to want to be with them? is it just me or are people moving to fast now a days It's true, I spent 3 months on a pay site in 2006, and I had many people write to me and ask me to meet them that same day. Which I had absolutely no interest in doing. What's the hurry? To me, that's a red flag. Let's at least talk a little, get to know something about each other. I really need to get an idea of who somebody is BEFORE I can even determine whether or not I want to meet them, and that isn't something I can do in a day. |

Well see, we actually met on here, I was going to ride four-wheelers with him, and we ended up not... And this all happened the same day, we chatted on here, met, and so on... Not to mention now I kind of live with him.

I feel the same way you do, what ever happened to getting to know someone? I feel like this, if we are meant to be together then we have our whole lifetime to figure out what we should do. I think if you just slow down and become friends, then you can have a better relationship. Friends first and then make a better relationship.
If someone tries to pressure me, it makes me wonder what they are trying to hide. Whats the big hurry? You have your whole life to get to know each other, so you don't have to say those big words quickly. BUT as I am sitting here typing this I am thinking..I am always saying, Life is short and you should always make the most out of it!! Geesh I guess I have different sayings for different things!! I still think you have to be friends before you can be anything else!!! |
