Hmmm... Actually, no <_< But what the hell, the world is not all about feet.

Heck, the girl that I can't stop thinking about at the moment doesn't have the best feet in the world either. Not everything is about feet I agree. It's a heck of a nice bonus though.

I honestly don't think I'll ever fully understand women. Heck, I don't think I'll ever half understand them. Lets just say the last year has seen in fair share of romantic disappointments again.

Man, you shouldn't try to understand a woman. You should just love her, that's all. A friend of mine once told me that, and she was damn right.

Good sounding throwaway line, but pretty useless in real-life situations.

I loved every single one of my gf's, and yet every time it ended (badly).

Agreed .. I can say the same about men ..

I guess that is why most men and women say the same thing.. You can't live with them and you can't live without them but one thing is for sure you will always be driven crazy if you try to understand them.

I have found disappoints come when you have not yet found the person for you .. the only thing I am not a fan of is the part of your heart you leave behind with each disappointment. It makes me wonder how much will be left when the right person finally shows up.

Anyway, I think life is a bit easier if I go with the much more cheerier NIKE moto.. Just do It.

I think the real clue lies in understanding not the person, but his or her needs. I couldn't really understand (and therefore, satisfy) my ex's needs, hence the break-up.

Love is a difficult thing, I'm myself not sure if I'm really capable of loving a person at present. I can be in love, I can be enchanted... But love is a serious matter. Love is sacrifice, it's willingness to do whatever a relationship needs to endure... Sometimes it's an art of compromise, sometimes it's not. Love is endless trust, it's the will to lose yourself. I guess I wasn't capable of all that back then.

Heck, I know I sound lame, but that's just how I perceive the concept of "love".

I think part of the problem is - if I want to psycho-analyze my own situation - the fact that I probably haven't been truly in love with a girl since uni. I've had relationships since then, sure, but they never were really preceded by the all-consuming crazy passion I last felt with that girl. Originally I thought that was a good thing, but lately I've been wondering if perhaps that is the problem. I've talked myself into dating girls I liked rather than was truly in love with. The problem is, you can't force infatuation. And what are you to do if you just don't fall in love any more...

I do not find it lame to speak your opinion. And I agree about love being compromise .. but I think it is a matter of choice too.. especially when things are not all rosey. In my opinion, it is about what you can do for the other person and if you can not fulfill someone elses needs they are not focusing correctly.. if they were focusing the same, they would not have so much want for their needs because they would be thinking of yours as well.

I can relate to thinking tooo much. I have been told I do the same.

I understand passion between two people. This year I found what true passion is .. both with the highs and the lows of it. And I am sure it can exist with others but it is harder to find since it is a personality compatiblity that is unique. It is there you just have to stop trying for it.

Its not that you have lost the ability to fall in love.. it maybe what you are looking for or not looking for in a person. Don't force anything, just do it. dating isn't falling in love its getting to know some potential friends too. Life is tooo short to not enjoy yourself while you can. And when the timing is right, the person to settle down with will come your way. One funny thing, it may not come in the package you imagined. hehehe

I used to say the exact same thing when I was 15-18

now I'm 20 and realised I have some serious issues lol

I'm single because my self-esteem is, and always has been nearly non-existent, so I'm waiting for a lady to come to me, which hasn't happened yet and by the looks of things won't happen anytime soon, so I should just grow balls and man up, but I can't because I'm stuck in my downward spiral of self-pity

how's that for self-disclosure

Sorry to beat you to the punch.. lol

And diddo to the single thing.. although every once in a while I jump out to try something serious. I think I do that because I forget why I am single and perfer it most of the time.

It's not that i have no Self esteem, cause i do, i just truly am lazy

Plus the other thing is, I hate being hurt, and i can get pretty attached to the people i care about. And being hurt is always my worst fear, so that's why i stay away.

I'm with you on that one, that's sort of where my problems started haha, I said 'my s.e. has always been nearly non-existent' but thats not true, it started around my 13th, but I wont go telling my life-story right here right now because nobody rly cares . In any case, I hate telling people what to do, but I'm just trying to like, warn you, don't waste years on loneliness when deep down you do want 'to be loved' (which I'm fairly certain anyone except for TooBoku wants ). Without rly noticing it your problems like attachment issues might worsen, and you -will- end up regretting it, probably . Just make sure you're not trying to fool yourself.

Now for me going out and finding a gf *brb*
