What do you miss about being in a relationship?
Posted: 2/22/2007 7:21:50 AM
AMEN!!!!!!!
I was with my ex husband 15 years and now divorced 4.. all my life (since I was 13, (yes 13 I looked and told people I was 19) I have never been alone... I broke up with my ex boyfriend 3 months ago because he found out he had another child a baby that was 5 months he never knew the chick was preg ..we were together 10 months and so happy. but for me that was his 4th kid under the age of 9 and that was just to much for me to handle a "baby"... now I have almost a fear of getting to know someone new, like the message above me..weeding through and the chit chat and learning about someone and all it's hard and you think "man when will it end" Now I am at the point where I think why bother.......

but then again.......... LOL why else am I on plenty of fish??!!

What i miss most is taking care of my partner and making them feel loved... and the sex. No, not because it was great (it wasn't) but the feelings that I felt when we were in that moment. I miss the way he became my best friend and I had someone I could share my secrets and my dreams with and who motivated me to work harder.

This is going to sound so corny but Ill say it anyway. I miss comming home to her and her putting her hand on my peck (I have some hard pecks) and feeling the softness and warmth of her hand through my shirt while she looks into my eyes. I am such a freakin sap! WTF is wrong with me? LOL!!!

well, feeling fulfill in my heart. I miss caring and loving a person at that level. I miss, having someone there that returns love to me. But sometimes things happen and they dont work out and although its hard to move on, we have too.

Well...the word 'everything' pretty much comes to mind...

ok...mathmatically, I could subtract out any mindless stupid arguments over petty bullchit becaue life is WAY shorter than most people even realize....but other than that...pretty much everything.

Lately though, there is one thing that is constantly resurfacing simply because of my professional life....

I'm starting to dread the walk down airport hallways to the security checkpoint where people are waiting for their loved one to come walking down from their flights. (reminding myself every time that there was a time not so long ago when you used to see their face right at the GATE.) I generally do a scan of all the faces who are eagerly looking down the hallway in anticipation of that first view of the one they're waiting for, and then to see the smile come on their face once they recognize the person....followed by a wave, or something...and then the hug or the kiss once that person reaches the checkpoint, realizing of course that not one of them is waiting for me. I used to watch it, give a slight smile (inside actually, it was not a smile), then I would just try to ignore it.... But lately, it's been like that "eruption" scene in "The 40 Year Old Virgin", where the BUS with the BILLBOARD ends up FOLLOWING him. (minus the DOGS HUMPING) I get off a plane so many times during a week, you think I would be used to it by now.

Eventually I start playing the 'plane scene' from Harry Met Sally in my head, and remind myself that even if I WAS in a relationship, there would probably come a time when I would not be at the 'beginning' of a relationship anymore...and I would wind up saying "how come you don't take me to the AIRPORT ANYMORE?"......Just to stuff it all back DOWN!!

SO I GIVE UP!!!!

When your away from that special person you know that they are missing you as much as you miss them. Also, the long warm loving hugs and kisses.

I miss having someone that gets all the crazy "inside" jokes we made up.
Mostly, I just miss having a best friend, with all the benefits! :)
Oh damn, and the back rubs weren't so bad either!

you said it all.

Miss everything about a relationship. the closeness, hugging, kissing, supporting one another, companionship, communication, doing things together, and on, and on, and on

My bestfriend....
Cuddling, going places and having fun with someone who totally makes me feel like his everything, someone I can tell anything too and know it will never come between us, someone to share my life with.

I miss seeing her smile...looking in her eyes and feeling like the luckiest guy on earth. also, I love to give massages (and recieve them of course) I miss watching the tension just leave her body during this.

I miss being in love; I like a man that is very spiritual and appreciates his blessings and doesn't complain about hardships, realizing that struggles make us better people, if we have the proper attitude; also a man that needs me to help him, I like that too. Making each other's life better.

-I miss cooking dinner with someone... while we're laughing and joking around... and maybe even bumping into eachother!
-I miss the fun conversations over the candlit dinner
-I miss snuggling up to watch a show infront of the fireplace
-I miss conserving water while taking a FUN shower!
-I miss holding hands while walking down the street
-I miss laying on a blanket outside staring up at the sky making pictures out of the clouds and telling stories
-I miss having someone that you can tell anything and everything to without either of us passing judgement
-I miss spooning

CRAP I miss a lot!!!!

I miss...
Laughing and joking around...
Giggling over our "bad day "at work...
Snuggling up infront of the fireplace...
Holding hands while walking or driving down the street..
Having a shoulder that I can rest my head on at night..
Breathing in the scent of "him"...
I miss running my fingers along his chest..
The way we always made our feet touch, as we both fell asleep....
Rolling over and saying "Good Morning" then kissing him good bye, telling him to " Have a Great Day !"

I sound like a Harliquin Romance Novel !!
I miss that part of me too...

That look that says, 'You're the only one for me'. The eyes that say, 'I am the happiest woman in the world'. The sweet silence that spoke volumes.

I miss feeling that persons leg brush up against mine in the middle of the night...feeling the cold of the night and cuddling up right next to that person to get warm...when they're holding me in the night and I feel there small stomach fit in the curve of my back...feeling nervous when I hear his car pull up...that kiss in morning before we leave for work...knowing someone is thinking about me...Lazy Sundays...cuddling up to them underneath the blanket to watch a movie...my best friend.

Though new love stuff is really fun and fantastic, I miss the old love type stuff. I miss being able to be fully comfortable with someone, where you are best friends, and you can be yourself around eachother. The good times with many laughs, the not so good days, even the emberrassing moments. Having a soft place to fall when the day sucked, and someone I look forward to seeing just so I can tell him about the funny joke I heard at work. The lazy days in bed where you just lay there and talk and scratch eachothers back, and watch tv.

i miss:

-being tired at the end of my day and finally coming home... then suddenly my lover wants to come over... and just hearing the news and seeing them suddenly revitalizes me and makes my day ten times brighter... and worth it.

-having someone take care of me and be there for me... i have had several relationships... but sadly enough i haven't had one like that in 5 YEARS. somehow i always manage to find someone who takes and doesn't give back.

-overwhelming lust and desire for the other person that when you kiss them passionately makes you feel like you can't stop.

-caressing the other persons face, making them laugh, taking their hand in mine, staring into their eyes and running my fingers through their hair out of affection.

-having someone that inspires poems and love letters... then writing and giving them to them

-too much to mention

LOL

Okay...all this mushy talk is freaking me out. How about things you DON'T MISS?

Things like arguing over where you're going to go eat? Trying to figure out ways to avoid hanging out with their crazy family members? Listening to them **** about where you've been and where you're going and what you're going to do? How about the part where they just don't like your friends for whatever reason?

I've come to the conclusion that my dream man will be an orphaned, decisive, friendly, secure man with a sex drive that deserves an honorable mention in Ripley's Believe It Or Not...

Should I find him...I'll be back with a more fitting answer for this one.
