I sometimes think ...So very brave and so exciting! I sometimes think I’d like a partner. I loved having Chris for long, but I do miss having another special being. I fantasize sometimes about meeting someone, but it’s just daydreams. And, those can be fun, too. I’m afraid having 25 years on you, my .dating. Life is a sweet memory. I’m so hopeful for you, to enjoy the moment, whether it leads to something more or is just a fun, exciting, silly, weird moment at the time, the present is here and now! Chris bought me a silver ring in Avignon and it’s enscribed with “maintenant et ici”. I’ve been wearing it lately and I think the message might be for you, too. Have fun!Judi of Little Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01139266622691344314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2498719763759636773.post-56225911068525752062018-02-12T15:40:25.308+01:002018-02-12T15:40:25.308+01:00You are more courageous with each encounter.

One of my most confident friends told me that unless a girl called him back, he wouldn't bother because he was afraid he'd be rejected.

Men are fools, most of them! They have the same insecurities as we have. Here in the USA, the young girls call it "ghosting" when they just disappear. It seems to be a worldwide practice. I've had it happen also. But, it really doesn't bother me at all, I just think they're missing out !!! You've got to think that too.<br />Splenderosahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06421992667097947469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2498719763759636773.post-67183103240298415192018-02-11T17:09:52.327+01:002018-02-11T17:09:52.327+01:00Heather, you have written my life, again!

Your guy friends are correct, if we listen carefully they qualified it too as I read it, "to know that a "certain" girl finds them interesting". And women hope the same. Where is he? Is it how societies are today? or is it not? Is it timing? Sharing life with someone is sublime for things/ "stuff" really are meaningless for only LOVE matters!

I think the most important is that you've done the mental work, and that you aren't rushing in just to not be alone. <br />As for the vanishers, it's painful, but think of it this way: they thought you were someone whose opinion counts, even if they didn't have the backbone to stick around. I suspect you'll develop a way to recognize these types before they waste your time.<br />But maybe things will work out with the nice kiss.Taste of Francehttp://francetaste.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2498719763759636773.post-42643651871636509742018-02-10T13:22:59.973+01:002018-02-10T13:22:59.973+01:00Beautiful post.
