Lovelorn: Bereft of love or one's lover. Sigh...This is so unlike me. Been content for years to be just me. Now I yearn to part of a pair.
What's up with that?

But right now I'm in the "meh, fuck it" phase.

15. No puzzle. When you're happy with yourself and ready to be |
|
vulnerable again, it's time to seek a mate. (I am neither at the moment.)

18. Yup. Here's my vunerability test. |
|
When I read "The Prophet" and become inspired, I'm ready. When I'm 'right' with the world, this just blows me away:
Your reason and your passion are the rudder and the sails of your seafaring soul.
If either your sails or our rudder be broken, you can but toss and drift, or else be held at a standstill in mid-seas.
For reason, ruling alone, is a force confining; and passion, unattended, is a flame that burns to its own destruction.
Therefore let your soul exalt your reason to the height of passion; that it may sing;
And let it direct your passion with reason, that your passion may live through its own daily resurrection, and like the phoenix rise above its own ashes.
I would have you consider your judgment and your appetite even as you would two loved guests in your house.
Surely you would not honour one guest above the other; for he who is more mindful of one loses the love and the faith of both.
Among the hills, when you sit in the cool shade of the white poplars, sharing the peace and serenity of distant fields and meadows - then let your heart say in silence, "God rests in reason."
And when the storm comes, and the mighty wind shakes the forest, and thunder and lightning proclaim the majesty of the sky, - then let your heart say in awe, "God moves in passion."
And since you are a breath In God's sphere, and a leaf in God's forest, you too should rest in reason and move in passion.

19. I haven't had a guy around in forever |
|
And I'm usually okay with that.
But lately...I've been stupid obsessed with the idea of being alone.
Thanks for sharing.

Man, I don't know what the hell is going on with me. I never wanted to feel this way about a woman. But I fucking hate it right now.

22. I don't know what the hell is going on with me either |
|
That's what prompted the thread. :)
Sounds like you love someone but it's not going well. Sorry to hear that.
That's probably worse then not having anyone to love at all. I'll have to think about that and get back to you.

I feel lonely. Today is one of those days. What really takes the cake is that I am one of those people that is around for everyone during "tough times" and today I had one, and everyone seems to be busy. Go figure. But you won't hear me complaining. LOL

23. I'm not a complainer either |
|
Most days anyway :)
Maybe the people you are always there for view you as a pillar of strength and can't imagine you ever 'needing' anything. So when you are having a rough time, they just don't realize it. I run into that sometimes.

29. Oh, I didn't think you are a complainer |
|
I understand. And yeah, I have always been the "strong one" and I'm sure no one thinks that I might need a bit of...whatever it is, but it's cool.

30. Yep. Not desperate, but lonely. |
|
Somehow, in the past year since my divorce, I've become extremely picky. This is completely unlike me. Women are hitting on me all the time lately (No, really!), but I could care less. I'm waiting for the right one.
Still, it's tough to walk out of a movie theater after seeing a great film and not have anyone to share the experience with....
