Top 10 danger signs
Posted:
3/14/2006 5:51:20 PM
I will agree with your 10 warning signs they are accurate and honest.
My experience from single men on date sites:
I had one man Instant Message me and we were not more than two minutes into the chat and he started with the "bar room trash talk". I was not real happy about that and ended the conversation. He then e-mails me and tells me that it was a good thing that I ended the conversation the way I did, that way he did not have to bother with me any farther. At first I was rather insulted, then I thought...NO...this man is a loser, why on earth would I feel hurt by a man that I really didnt want know by the way he was talking to me. I should be thanking him for showing me who he really was up front. That way, I know not to wasted my time finding out he was a jerk.
I have met some really nice men on single sites. No second dates though...makes me kinda sad. But oh well. Ladies and Gentlemen...when they say they are just too busy or have too many irons in the fire....thats the polite way of telling someone you really arent interested and move on.
I feel I am date worthy. I listen to what he has to say, I have eye contact with him. Im not looking around the room at other people or other men. I listen to them go on about their ex-wifes...(to a point). I smile, offer to assist with the tab. I dont know....single at 46 is just nuts. Sometimes, I think to myself...why even bother. But, life goes on...and on...and on.

Sure it does. Again, that separates the girls from the woman. Your ex sounds like she had her own boundries when it came to sex. A perceived notion of what is acceptable and what is not...which is sad and very limiting behind closed doors.
The live in you had that was super wild....you were collateral damage. Perhaps she will grow out of that, maybe she wont or maybe she was flat nuts.
There is a happy medium, we are out there....you just have to contiune with your journey...we surface for air...we always do. She might be the one you over looked or thought strangely of at the book store because she was sitting in the isle instead of a chair. Ask her what shes reading next time.

The woman on Prozac or other substances is not who I am referring to. Those poor "girls" are injured and need to find their way. A wild nature doesnt neccessarly equate a substance abuser. We are woman that are strong, know who we are, what we want and cannot be controlled by the roles and unspoken rules history has given us. We prefer the male share the same space and accept us for who we are and in turn we accept them, not even remotely trying to change them. We are not for the timid.
I am certain you know or have dated a wild natured woman and simply didnt realize it. Perhaps she was the one that could repair her car on her own instead of taking it to a mechanic. Maybe she was the one you broke up with because she didnt want children and you did. She could have been the one that was feverishly working on her Masters Degree and was dumped because "there was not time for me". She could the strange woman that wears the hats next door and is growing wild flowers in her front yard. To the rest of the neighbors, they appear to be weeds....but she knows what those flowers are, just ask her...she will tell you with great delight....she might even invite you in for a cup tea...then read the leaves for you afterward.

Fox, you are beautiful woman!
Forgive me please, but I am going to say something quite harsh and I certainly dont mean to hurt your feelings.....I know that when I am feeling negative about something somebody had told me about me, I make a choice to take what they said to heart and check to see if it is true and needs tweeking or throw it into the trash can where all the other toxic waste belongs for dumping. Secondly, I dont retrieve what I put in the trash can. Simply put...Take only what you need and what feeds you the best and throw the rest out.

Mr. Budman, I am sorry you had a bad experience with wild "girls". As, I said, there is a big difference between a girl and a woman. With a "wild girl", there will be collateral damage because she is much like a litter of puppies playing in tall grass for the first time until she achives her balance and direction. Some "girls" dont grow out of it and remain "girls" no matter what the age. Those are the ones to stay away from much like the "Bad Boys" that never grow up.
BTW, there are some quiet girls that are actually wild girls that prefer to hide their bushy tails under their skirts...and it is only when she opens the door for you and you stick around for a while....you find she is actually wild at one time and now housebroken and domesticated.

A wild girl is a "girl" not a woman. She is either exploring her own rites of passage and retaining the experience for future cardinal knowledge ("damn that was fun, I may do that again" or "that hurt, I wont try that again"). On the other hand, depending on her motives and phycee she may be anesthesizing herself internally with external substances (food, drugs or liquor) or behavior (sex, one bad relationship after another; too much spending, constant drama queen) to block out unpleasant feelings she my have about herself and that around her. A true "wild girl" makes the transition to a "wild woman" very easily once she attains the balance in her life and the knowledge of what is working for her and what is not.
Learning to balance....is quite the adventure! Wild females are fun to be around. We are intuitive, adventurous, have many many stories to tell, not intemidated by life yet we carry the scars as a reminder of where we have been. We do our own damage control, emotional healing and do not play the damsell in distress very well....we very independent in our nature.
Should any of you men capture the heart of one of these women, you should feel honored she has selected you to join her. All you have to do is be open enough to expereince what she has to offer. So, sit down, buckle up and hang on the the dashboard because you are in for a joyous encounter.

Women: Comfortable in your own skin? what age?

Within each of us there is an innately healthy and intuitive creature, sure in her instincts, passionate about her creative work, gifted as a healer and blessed with an ageless wisdom. For centuries, women have been repressed by a value system that has trivialized women's emotions and attempted to deny their power. The effects of this repression include nervous breakdown, lethargy, unhappy relationships, and a lack of direction, purpose and self-confidence (Also known as not being comfortable in your own skin).
To be comfortable with one's skin with certainty and pride regardless of the body's gifts and limitations, to speak and act in one's behalf, to be aware, alert, to draw on the innate feminine powers of intuition and sensing, to come into one's rites of passage, to find what one belongs to, to rise with dignity, to retain as much consciousness as we can.
Below is a story of how the external world attempts to mold us (both men and women) to conform to its own ideas:
A man came to tailor, and tried on a suit. As he stood before the mirror, he noticed the vest was a little uneven at the bottom.
'Oh,' said the tailor, 'don't worry about that. Just hold the shorter end down with your left hand and no one will ever notice.'
While the customer proceeded to do this, he noticed that the lapel of the jacket curled up instead of lying flat.
'Oh that?' said the tailor. 'That's nothing. Just turn your head a little and hold it down with your chin.'
The customer complied, and as he did, he noticed that the inseam of the pants was a little short and he felt that the rise was a bit too tight.
'Oh, don't worry about that,' said the tailor. 'Just pull the inseam down with your right hand, and everything will be perfect.' The customer agreed and purchased the suit.
The next day he wore his new suit with all the accompanying hand and chin 'alterations.' As he limped through the park with his chin holding down his lapel, one hand tugging at the vest, the other hand grasping his crotch, two old men stopped playing checkers to watch him stagger by.
"Oh, my God!' said the first man. 'Look at that poor crippled man!'
The second man reflected for a moment, then murmured, 'Yes, the crippling is too bad, but you know I wonder...where did he get such a nice suit?'"
Just like the man with the new suit, we often develop personas that display to everyone how good, caring, nice, etc., we are. To the outside world everything is perfect, but inside our true natures are crippled. Women often get so much support for these pleasing personas, we loose touch with how much they narrow our choices, cut us off from life, and bring us unnecessary pain.
When I was younger I was like the tailor's gullible customer. It was within the last 15 years I found I don't have to try on a suit to see if it fits, I can simply go in my insticts. This is a life long process, and unless a woman is altert enough to stay awake she can learn to be comfortable with herself as a complete person.
Sorry for the novel....

Question for the over 30 crowd.
Posted:
12/25/2004 12:21:33 AM
To me it has been harder to enter into relationships because of the past relationships I have had. I have been married twice, my second marriage was to the love of my life and he left me for another woman after being together for close to 11 years. I have had 2 relationships with live in boyfriends that went south after 1 year.
I have been single for 3 years now and must say, I do enjoy not having another "cog in the gears" of my life as it is now.
I do date from time to time. Unfortunately the men my age, older or younger that I have met are wanting very casual relationships or just want a bed buddy (putting that very politely) and thats not something I want for me or to expose my teenager boy to.
I have a lot of fear when it comes to letting another person into my life. I try to get a feel for them on the first or second date on how they would fit into my life or if I would fit into theirs. I usually know by the end of the first date if its a fit or not. Maybe I am too hastey or independent, too set in my own little world. Maybe my "picker-outter" is broken. Maybe I need to learn to "just be"...I have no answers....just questions

Abuse
Posted:
12/24/2004 11:46:16 PM
Get as far away from him as you humanly can...anybody that hits another person and says I love you...needs help....I was with a verbal abuser for 1 year, I found out he had been beating on my son (10 yrs old) while I was working at night. I told him he either packed his bags and left or talked to the police. He should not have stayed in my home when he was verbally attacking me for a year. I felt as if "this is the best I can do" guess what...I was wrong!!! I have been single for 3 years and thats okay. I know some day when I am ready, a great guy will show up in my life.
I found that there was something very wrong with me knowing that I stayed in that awful reltationship for that long and my son getting the worst end of it. I really do suggest that you leave that person....NOW!!!!
