you guys make it sound so easy. how do you stop caring?


Nobody is telling you to stop caring... Just go out and be with good people.... Keep yourself occupied. After time, things will be better

Hey Ladyofmagic,

A LOT more than you think.

Ok..then I take that comment back..I should just say that I've never met a guy that was open and honest about anything.

I don't think it's being naive..I think at some point in our lives we all wanna believe that the world is full of wonderful kind people that wont hurt us..I learned at a VERY early age that people can and will hurt you if you let them.

It's a process.

Take down and put away pictures of him and the two of you together.

Turn the radio station when "your song" comes on.

Don't eat at the little rib joint you and he always went to.

Take a different path to work... or on the way home.

Buy a new dress.

Watch a different movie.

Cut your hair.

Buy a new end table.

Switch to a different brand of beer.

Break the familiarities, and the rest will follow. I wish you nothing but the best. (=flowerforyou flowerforyou flowerforyou flowerforyou flowerforyou flowerforyou flowerforyou drinker drinker drinker drinker

This is true. However, you can't have a closed heart and expect to be happy.

Yellowrose, Hang in there. You have a good heart and it shows. One of these days if you are patient the right guy will see that and snag you for his own.

OK...I keep letting the ex fiance get to me. My only crime to him was to try to get him to talk to me about the problems he was having...and there was alot of stress.
He was a very good friend for a year before we dated and now he has been cold and hateful to me for caring. Now he won't talk to me. Sad thing is - he got me on here when we were friends and he's back on here too.

He isn't used to people caring about him, so I guess I scared him.

I kow I should say F him but I can't when I've always cared about him even as a friend


smokin Boy I don't know about the other guys but I would just about give anything to have been in his shoessmokin

Without communication there can be no openness or honesty....its a prerequisite for most everyone...at least in concept...but i've found when it actually plays out both sexes including myself have been guilty of lack of communication....

sometimes that comes from not wanting to hurt the other person & sometimes it comes from not being in touch with our own thoughts & feelings....

the solution is to try to get the other to communicate by letting the other person know you care and sharing your own thoughts...if he doesn't respond to that then i think you would be happier looking elsewhere....

Keep on Caring because that is who you are....:wink:
