Really, really wanted something and then got it, only to find it isn't exactly as you thought?
In line with this being a 'dating site' I'll keep my example romance based.
When I was at school, in the fifth form, a new boy started in the lower sixth, he was gorgeous, yummy and lovely to look at and quickly became the love interest of just about every female in the school including me. I lost the power of speech in his presence.
We were both involved in the school play, me playing a harassed middle-aged mother, he doing the lighting, somehow we got it together and became an item.
I was over the moon to begin with, obviously. I'd caught the school heartthrob and was hated by every other girl in school.
It wasn't long before I realised that the pretty face was about all he had going for him, that and being a bloody good kisser. The kissing kept me interested for a short while but then I decided I had to get out of the relationship because I was so bored.
Has it happened to you? How did you deal with it? | |

And that a being a good kisser is not a god given thing to everyone ?
And if someone is a good kisser that should be good enough ?
In my case if you add 'kind and understanding' and of course few of the diamonds what else would you need ?
My curse is being too clever | |

On the contrary, Alma, I realised that you cannot spend all of your time attached to your squeeze's face. That good conversation and good company are at least as important. I never found out if he was any good at the horizontal tango. Maybe if I had and it was as good as his kissing I'd have been in thrall for longer. That would have been a bad thing IMO. He was one dimensional, all good looks and no personality.
I also learned that you can't have everything... | |

Posted: 3/11/2009 2:06:38 AM | | When i was bit younger, I thought like a lot of people, that having a load of money would be the greatest thing. Having spent the last 11 years with what many would consider an extravagant lifestyle, not having to worry about money, having nice holidays etc......but spending it with an alcoholic who treated me as if i didn't exist most of the time, money is not all its cracked up to be. Easy to say whenyou have it, but do you know, I'm happier now than I have ever been, alone with my children with very little money but appreciating all the great friends I have in my life, the beautiful area I live in, my and my family's good health and having so many laughs on here!! | |

Posted: 3/11/2009 2:29:47 AM | Well this 'thingy' with the personality (as Mana Mana would say) doesn't really work with guys.. I've tried a little experiment and if I throw the personality out on a first date, they'd probably remember me but they'd never call me again but if I appear in a mini skirt then bingo, they do not stop calling... proves a lot
Anyway, my mum was very good in school... her old teachers spoke about her for decades and they made her believe she is very clever and interesting person.
Not long ago she entered a shoe repair shop and the shoe repair man said 'Oh, I know you! You went to school with me!'
And my mum thought he'd say 'You were damn good in school back then!'
But he said 'Oh I remember you for your breasts !'
Proves a lot again | |
