But what I do know is that at this stage of my life, I want to be in love and be loved.
So he told me that we can't even be text buddies since I don't want to be with him. I knew he was going to say that. Dudes HATE being cut off. & I'm the Queen of being fed up and restricting all communications to the text during business hours, to keep me entertained while at work.
I've officially stepped into "Cougar" status this year. I don't know how on earth I keep attracting these YOUNG men. I know there's absolutely, positively no way I would have anything serious with a much younger man. I think I must be stroking my own ego like men do with younger women. Or maybe I'm just on some "scratched that off my bucket list" type stuff. Either way, I need to sit down somewhere.
I also meet men who are really into me but the feeling isn't mutual or older men who I don't find attractive. Not all older men..just the ones who are interested in me. erplexed So I'm here to publicly announce that I'm taking a much needed break from men I don't know if I want to but I need to. I don't know that I'm thinking clearly.
But what I do know is that at this stage of my life, I want to be in love and be loved. I want to feel butterflies when he walks into the room. I want to get up in the morning with him on my mind. At work on a Friday, I want to get super excited around noon because I know we'll spend the weekend together. I want to be lovingly kissed on the forehead. I want to be adored. I want to feel like sylver2.
Oh. It must be cuffing season.
Oh. It must be cuffing season.
Yep. Many a woman finds herself dumped right before Valentine's Day when they couldn't keep the ninja off them during the fall and winter. I was cuffed once back in HS. Never again!@kaykari when kneegrows become parched and horrible exes come out of the woodwork looking for someone to coupled up with for the winter months then convienently leave once it warms up.
Ohhhh no wonder we're in the same place khadicurls--it's still really early in our relationships. Been with mine 3 months and I'm still ambivalent--I flip flop between wanting it to deepen and not. If he really wants me, he'll wait for me to make up my mind. Being older, I don't just jump all in. Never have, actually. The ones that really wanted me waited. My ex waited a year for me to fall in love with him and that lasted 20 years *shrug*.@DarkJoy We've been seeing each other for two months now.
I have issues. I don't want to get hurt again so I have a habit of just dipping my toe in the water but he wants to be with me. So far he has been a perfect gentleman. Goodness, it's been a long time since I was last in a relationship. I don't know how to just be happy in the moment.
