Worst Christmas Gift

[Cody]

Hey, being single isn't for everyone. Some people need to have someone there all the time. I'm the opposite, but I'm a unique combination of no conscience, overly inflated self esteem, and independence.

It takes time to ease back into the singles scene...or just the social scene. I guess the only advice I can give is that don't try and force things with anyone. Have a good time and do what you want to do and if someone comes along that fits into that picture then great. Otherwise keep doing what makes you happy. You're the onlly one that has to live with yourself the rest of your life so you might as well make sure you're happy doing it.

I'm probably the last person that should be giving anyone advice about life lol.

 

[Hickey]

I dunno Cody, that's pretty good.

 

[PierCed_3]

That's really good! Good advice! I think this thread has been HIJACKED!!! YEAH!!!

I know I am the latter of the two you describe. I am always with someone. This could be a good change for a little while.

 

[Cody]

I always say that you need to know what makes yourself happy before you can be happy with anyone else--or make anyone else happy.

some would probably say that is just an excuse for why no girls want to be around me for prolonged periods of time. To that I say, uhh, shut up.

Being with a total hottie makes me happy . Otherwise I enjoy Jeeping, riding my motorcycle, racing, or hanging out with friends.

Jeep is broke, too cold for motorcycle, car is in the shop, friends are all not single and makes it depressing for me. Yeah...

 

[Jinx]

find yourself, then find someone.

if you looking for "someone/no one inparticular" that is hot, you might find her, and chances are you won't be you to make her happy, then your unhappy begins...

She hates your hobbies, your friends, etc... then you eventually hate her.

skip the sh!t, find yourself

man this is a hi jack...

While I can't argue about you being a unique individual, I am very happily married and I have been told, by my husband, that I have an overly inflated self esteem and I also happen to be very independent. I just think it's about being happy with who you are and being with someone who appreciates that about you.

SORRY, I'm already taken.......LOL

 

[PierCed_3]

Jared... yeah... I know I am not that unique Hahahaha .

Seems like all of them are taken GI's CHICK. Especially around my age YIKES!!

 

[PierCed_3]

I am definitely finding myself and becoming more independant but it sure seems like when it rains it pours! Holy COW

 

[BlackDog]

Don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing but I got divorced for Christmas....

It was a great thing for me, and so did I.
Good luck Man.

Found someone (during period of estrangement, divorce should have happened YEARS ago....!~) that lets me be me, and supports my decisions, encourages my dreams, and keeps me grounded.

Weird not getting yelled at for what I was told to do.....

 

[PierCed_3]

That's very Encouraging! I know it will happen one day...

Ironically, thats how I got to where I am with Jennifer now.
After the fact that it was over became apparent, and my dog and I had to live in the van by hte lake for a week..... I tried forcing a fit with a friends hottie sister, didn't work.... just wanted to figure out dating, for 6.5 years, been waking up next to one person , ya know?

Jenn and I started hanging, I would clean her house, watch her kids, just friend stuff, and now here we are, I haven't shared this level of reciprocity with anyone, just be you, be happy, don't look back on woulda coulda shoulda's with the past, it died for a reason, yup every situation is diffeent, and be YOU.

Enuff with the dr. philesque speech, off to go view my other chit chat thread.:greg:

 

[PierCed_3]

I feel you on that! The only problem I have is starting over at almost 30 years old. There aren't a lot of single women around my age! It sucks! I just need to move somewhere and find a different demographic. The wife and I will never get back together and I really don't want to. I just need to know that there are women out there that are available... right now they are all 18 and too young! well..... 18 is ok . hahaha

Ummm, I am 36, and she is 20. that is still weird sometimes, welll grounded though, be 21 on 1/27.... I cannot wait! she can buy the beer then (actually she has been buying for years at several of the local stores, I have no idea how, just never been carded.)

 

[red]

just have to get back to the single scene at your own pace, thats what i'm doing.

 

[PierCed_3]

yeah, it will be trial and error for sure for a little while. One thing I am finding out... when it rains.. it pours!

 

[BlackDog]

I get that, the last time we separated (the XXXXXXXXXX and I) couldn't even get a sideways glance from the opposite sex, this time, 20 somethings were falling out of the sky...
