| The ONE that stands out among the rest............. Posted: 10/30/2006 2:04:48 PM | | One does stand out. Why? Because he was laid back and I had the most fun with him. Always made me laugh, he could converse and he was grown up with that little bit of child in him. Hope he finds a great girl... he deserves it. | |

What an amazingly positive attitude "i love hockey" and it made me smile......you totally got the whole idea of this thread. Thank you.
The distant memories give us moments that make us smile and no matter the outcome if we are able to walk away and feel POSITIVE than I believe that truly says a lot about our personalities. | |

| The ONE that stands out among the rest............. Posted: 10/30/2006 5:29:28 PM | | The rastafarian biker with all the rasta tattoos. Hailee Salasi on his left shoulder. The one who always took me out for sushi. The one whose fat cat I still have. He loved me . . . for awhile. He used to make me just roll on the floor with laughter. Cheech, Chong, Sanford and Son and Howie Mandell rolled into one. You should have seen the broken down dump he paid a fortune for. He was cute, he was funny, we had a blast, and he was fond of me. Something got messed up. Who knows? It was just that Irish rasta biker. He used to listen to the reggae program and do this thing with his fingers. Everything he did was saturated with cuteness. He always used to tell me how his mama was a communist. He used to tell me all these crazy stories of his life. I had fun every day with that one. I couldn't get my breath sometimes, I laughed so hard. | |

| The ONE that stands out among the rest............. Posted: 11/1/2006 11:23:27 PM | there was a "one" .....was with her and her children for a short period of time but the time we did spend together was exhilarating and exciting , she helped me see into myself and feel that person that was inside of me. She showed me how to love and that is the one gift I cherish, I'm just not sure that I can find that wonderful feeling of belongingness again , but I will not give up til the day I die. I need that feeling of loving someone so completely and utterly uninhibited , so much that it hurts , and that hurt feeling so orgasmic and truely fullfilling........my search continues to find the next "THE ONE" because the next one will benefit from me learning to love from so far down deep in my soul.
The past may be broken dreams but they are the greatest building blocks of what you build your future dreams of.
learn from the past dont dwell on it and run into the future unafraid to love and be happy!  | |

| The ONE that stands out among the rest............. Posted: 11/2/2006 12:25:41 AM | The ONE that stands out among the rest, actually is the one I never met face to face.
I was in the Yahoo Games, playing Literati the one night. I sat down at a table with anybody that was ready to play the game. We got talking in the chat box during the game, and during the 1st game, we got into the how are you where are you chat. I was more focused on the game than on chatting. During the 2nd game we played, we were chatting more than we were playing the game. Later on in the night we were chatting, and was forgetting who's turn it was in the game. I started playing Literati with her at about 9 PM, and by the time we were done with the 3rd game, it was 4AM.
She told me she had a daughter, and told me her name. We talked about the many songs we liked and what our favorite oldies song was. I found out when her birthday was, and what her favorite color, sport, whatever was. I even found out when her daughter's birthday was. We chatted back and forth for over a year, she emailed me a picture her daughter drew for me, and I printed it and hung it on the fridge.
She knew I was going through a tough time, and it didn't bother her. I was actually growing feelings for her, and I haven't even seen her in person. She was the same way. We sent christmas cards to each other. She was in Michigan and I was here in Ohio. Whenever I saw her come online on my friend's list it brought a smile to my face to see her. Her daughter was polite and we talked online about school, hobbies, books, movies, you name it.
This went on for almost a year and a half.
I wouldn't have changed a thing about what we had, except for the fact I never have seen her in person. | |

| The ONE that stands out among the rest............. Posted: 11/2/2006 4:05:05 AM | The last couple of posts are inspiring for they show remembering but with fondness and no regret , that is what it is about really. As it is said these relationships are "building blocks" for the foundation of our future.
When someone makes an impact on your life in a large way, you cannot forget them no matter what because there was a connection and hey some connections are simply never meant to be broken or more positively they CAN'T be broken.
May you all find that fantastic, heart racing, pulse beating, can't wait to see you lovers again. | |

| The ONE that stands out among the rest............. Posted: 11/3/2006 12:52:44 AM | | well, I can attest to this. I'm not a relationship guy at all, but their was this one girl I met 2 years I blew it with. She was cool, pretty, easy going, even more shocking she approached me because I originally thought she was stuck up. Anyway long story short before meeting I didn't even say the word commited relationship and I had been single for like 6 yrs before meeting her. Anyway I messed up and never really got the chance to really do anything meaningful because i had to open my fat mouth. even though me and her were attracted to each other we never got to together, she is the fish that got away, because in my whole 8 yrs of being single now she is the only girl I met who i would seriously tried a relationship with, lol, now she is living with some pilot dude in Oklahoma, I'm still kind of crazy about her. | |

| The ONE that stands out among the rest............. Posted: 11/3/2006 7:47:21 AM | ^^^^^^^^^^^^Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww that's a sad story "colt".......a love that never came to fruition, and leaves one always wondering what could have been? She reached out to you but you were not ready to accept it, could you write to her and tell her that she is still in your thoughts???????? You never know love sometimes has a strange way of coming back to us when we least expect it, it's happening to me as I type and by that I mean a second chance at it.
If anything you may have learned a very valuable lesson from this woman in that when something is offered to you, we must take it, enjoy it, and ride like the wind while we have it in our grasp.
We learn from each relationship/lover that we encounter...............it's a wonderful feeling isn't it? Keep the faith and always remain POSITIVE. | |

Very wise words, One Step. But it is much easier said than done, isn't it? We all carry baggage around with us, and I'm learning, in my current relationship, that I have more baggage stored subconsciously than I would have thought--and my partner is finding the same thing with himself. When we have been deeply, traumatically hurt and betrayed in the past, fears inevitably arise in opening our heart to someone else and making ourselves vulnerable--especially when that person seems to be the very one for whom we have been waiting, because there is so much to lose.
So I'm going to take your words to heart today, One Step, and try to just ride like the wind while I have it in my grasp. Some amount of caution and self-preservation is sensible in a developing relationship, but there is a point where it becomes destructive. | |

| The ONE that stands out among the rest............. Posted: 11/3/2006 8:52:52 AM | Even though the roof was down, the bum warmers were turned on so I wouldn’t get cold. He set up my tee, carried my golf clubs and walked on the traffic side of the street to name a few things a gentleman would do.
I would have to say, this is what made him unique and I was swept off my feet!  | |

| The ONE that stands out among the rest............. Posted: 11/3/2006 9:01:04 AM | "Garden nut" I can so relate to what you are thinking/feeling in that it is hard to let go of the hurts/pains/trauma inflicted on us by another..........I have messed up many a relationship because of my inability to just let it go and "ride like the wind." We truly have to be ready internally and emotionally to give ourselves to another, do you really feel that you are ready is the question?
It seems that I am finally at a point in my life where I can and want to give to my "fishy" all of who I can be.........it may be that I feel extremely comfortable with him and in no way feel pressured to conform to what is deemed a traditional relationship for we allow ourselves to feel and breathe without restriction.
It can be destructive if you carry the past with you............I advise you to just ride like the wind with this one and see where it carries you, for he may be the one that stands out among the rest?
Live, love , be happy, and find peace..............one step | |

| The ONE that stands out among the rest............. Posted: 11/3/2006 1:23:03 PM | | I dated someone for awhile who was very open hearted, caring, down to earth, lived just live life for life, and would never hurt a soul. An amazing guy. He watched out for others, yet balanced it and took care of himself too. Not a selfish bone in this mans body. His overall personality with that just awed me. His sense of humour, and smile would make anyone smile back. Wonderful man! Haven't found anyone that has what he did but I don't expect too because he was unique and it made him who he was. | |

| The ONE that stands out among the rest............. Posted: 11/3/2006 1:34:54 PM | | I can relate so much much to what you have said.I recently met a guy who is anti relationship.Up until I met him I felt the same.But he is so special that I will wait it out and see what happens.....Maybe he will decide differently.or remain the same but in the meantime we are having a great time and who know???This comes from a woman that had the biggest fear of commitment you've ever met... | |

| The ONE that stands out among the rest............. Posted: 11/3/2006 1:37:36 PM | | I found one once that stood out from the ordinary bla. He is European. Naturally that makes him different in some ways but aside from that he had the qualities I most look for in man. He got married a little over a year ago… | |

| The ONE that stands out among the rest............. Posted: 11/3/2006 1:37:57 PM | | I don't have too much of a track record to compare...so I can't really comment on this one. I've always been a student it seems and now I'm building my practice...so I never really have time for love...maybe someday....ahhh someday I can relax!!! Maybe then I will find someone who stands out from the rest! | |

| The ONE that stands out among the rest............. Posted: 11/3/2006 1:40:52 PM | tough question, cause each had a special quality. i guess for me there was the one guy who had performed this big, yet small, romantic gesture that blew me away, so much so that i almost passed out when it happened. i had never had anyone gone out of their way for me like that..he had unknowingly made one of my most romantic fantasies a reality.
nothing happened in the end, and he was a bit of a cad. but i am so grateful to have gotten that experience. i'll never forget that day...no, i'm not holding on to him or the past, i've released it and hope he's happy and finding love, etc. but it was a cherished moment, and cherished moments always have a special place in one's heart. | |

| The ONE that stands out among the rest............. Posted: 11/3/2006 2:16:41 PM | When I read a post like this, I wonder if it's even worth the effort to try to find somebody to "BE" that one that somebody remembers as 'the one that got away'....Because in trying, I'm reminded that I potentially stand the chance of always having to live up to somebody else's ghost no matter what I would do, say, try, or be.......even if I might be a great potential candidate......I'm the one who would have to try 'that much harder' to excorcise the demons from somebody elses mind as to why they can't give me the love back that I might need in a relationship as well...... To know that somebody, in their mind, every day, thinks about somebody else as 'the one' instead of living in 'the now' to make US 'the one'......No wonder people can't find love.....who would want to compete with an era gone by.......
It was hard enough a couple of relationships before.....if this is the norm...no wonder they didn't work out......You wind up getting only 'half' a person of what someone gave to somebody else.......who needs to be thought of in that way..... | |
