Woah Nellie, can I relate! It's what made me give up, at 2 and a half months pregnant, and at 33 years of age, on a love that I had held onto the potential of since I was 14 years old. No more of that for me. Ever. <br /><br />Whatever you decide, it will be the best decision for your highest good; of that I am sure.Single Mama NYChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07598244426035959968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650845911079200343.post-25320721606777862472009-07-07T20:40:35.080-04:002009-07-07T20:40:35.080-04:00I love listen to the opinions of woman and how the...I love listen to the opinions of woman and how they differ from that of men. <br /><br />I am like Big Mark, love happens when acceptance and a willingness to get there is the focus. <br /><br />Sure, we can't ever make a person love us but putting a time stamp on "showing enough love" is a slippery and somewhat selfish decision. <br /><br />Like you, Lovebabz, I've felt the sting of being locked up. I've come to believe that I may never find the perfect match because I have to realize that although I have an image of myself, in all likelyhood it will never match the image others have of me, including lovers. By that I mean my struggled has forged a man that looks at everything with a discerning eye. It's obvious that you are a thinker and sometimes deep thinkers give off vibes other than "love me baby, cause I want to love you back". <br /><br />I think it's safe to say men are different than women. Yes, there's no time stamp on love and there's no gaurantee it will ever happen if we look for it in the wrong places.<br /><br />My 2 cents.<br /><br />Hey, a little plug for a women poet from Austrailia.

It is difficult to make the decision to walk away because being with him was wonderful for me. <br /><br />Once again, we are living parallel journeys and helping each other along.<br /><br />(((HUGS)))KayC, The Quiet Stormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04906296213022463052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650845911079200343.post-51146403261200409532009-07-07T09:13:53.006-04:002009-07-07T09:13:53.006-04:00My dear Lovebabz. Oh how I love your attention to ...My dear Lovebabz. Oh how I love your attention to the "code" behind the things people say, and I am a huge supporter of understanding what underlies the spoken word.<br /><br />I do believe that placing "time" on a budding love is code that a full decision has not emerged, and the worst remedy for that is to enter the "convincing stage." It isn't fair to the person trying to demonstrate the compelling truth that love isn't sitting around a corner, but has arrived.<br /><br />"I need time" does and always will mean one of several things:<br /><br /><i>I'm not sure.<br /><br />This may not work for me.<br /><br />I need more convincing.<br /><br />Probably not, but I'll buy time for the temporary high.<br /><br />I am enjoying this so much that making a commitment just doesn't seem right..</i> etc.<br /><br />I don't believe that convincing and "negotiations" have a place in living the fullness of true love.<br /><br />Whatever you decide, based on the woman you've shown yourself to be, the choice will come from a place of honesty, sincerity, truth, and <i>love.</i>Her Sidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00203876781343228134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650845911079200343.post-60756075443094360162009-07-07T08:47:23.806-04:002009-07-07T08:47:23.806-04:00There is something in here that I both agree with ...There is something in here that I both agree with and disagree with at the same time.<br /><br />There is a 'nowness' to love. But it happens 'now' as a result of a willingness to get there. That takes conscious and rational thought. It is at once by chance and by planning ... Dr. Wyer's idea of 'the power of intention' would fit here.<br /><br />Nowness is the result of letting things happen intentionally? Somehow I can wrap my mind around that notion instead of separating the two ideas. <br /><br />Anywho, that's me ...Big Mark 243https://www.blogger.com/profile/10974573439218884164noreply@blogger.com
