Comment on Just a Little Crush by lolly

I totally get where you are coming from. I also have had crushes on unavailable men for as long as I can remember.

The last crush I had lasted 3 years and I couldn’t get him out of my head. The only thing that worked was telling my friend who was his sister that I liked him and he did nothing and so I finally realized that he didn’t like me back. It’s like you are totally blind when you are infatuated.

I’ve come to realize that the crushes you have are not in vain and are usually showing you something about yourself. Look at the qualities of the guys you are crushing on- I’m sure you’ll see some similarities. Maybe the man you are destined to be with shares some of these qualities and the time is not quite ready yet for you to be with him.

I send you strength…may you be blessed to be with him soon

It’s more about being the right one than finding the right one. So says Dr. Pattie. *wink*

None of us are experts – we all do foolish things for/with/to/while in love – but if you believe in you, work on you, and be the best YOU you can be at every given moment it somehow makes all the difference. I’ve heard it said (and subscribe to the idea) that “loving ourselves first” is really the only sure fire way to happiness – both inside and outside a relationship.

Strut yur stuff girl!

I’d love to offer you some advice, but I’m sitting the sidelines now. Lately, I think finding Mr. Right is like predicting where lightning will strike, or like guessing how many jelly beans are in a jar. No real way to tell til you get more information.

I think a decade to try to accomplish those 40 things is a great idea – it was an ambitious list of things to accomplish in a years time!

YAY you’re back! Please stick with this, I think typing out the truth is good for the soul. I’ve decided that I don’t have to be one of those bloggers that posts EVERYDAY, but when I feel like I’ve got something to share – be that an insight, a photo, or a recent painting.

A “Boy Buffet”! I love it! Glad you are back and you had some eye opening insight. Can’t wait to hear about the future & about the 40 Things list.

Comment on If I Can’t See It, Can It Happen? by Kristine Shreve

It’s not that I think I’m too good for ordinary guys or something like that. It’s more that I can’t imagine an ordinary guy wanting me. I can’t envision what it would be like to be part of a normal, supportive, loving couple, mostly because I never have been.

I can imagine George Clooney and my fantastic life because it’s mostly impossible and fantasy. I can be as crazy as I like because it’s never going to happen.

Maybe I am giving off signals. I’m sure that’s possible. Or maybe I can imagine falling for an ordinary guy and don’t want to imagine it, since the idea scares me.

There’s a lot to think about here.
