Consistency. Effort. Compromise. Nice arms.2

Why do you people do that??!!
It messes with my already meager little brain in such a huge way. Couldn't have been all that long ago because I remember you.
But it's valuable information which I'll forget in about 45 seconds if I don't find a post-it soon. 4 -
Engagement. It's intoxicating.
I've gotten so used to past bf's taking loyalty & commitment for granted & rarely having eye contact (after that 1st 6-mo period, when they knew they had me & gave up... their challenge was over, I guess), 'til the day I've had enough & am packing to leave... then suddenly, flowers, eye contact with puppy eyes & attention.
Too late, ya dud... you had < fill in the blank > months/yrs to do all that & didn't. Suddenly, one pink Anne Klein heel is out the door with my last box of steak knives & white tea towels & now you want to have deep meaningful engagement, rather than your usual lying about like an elderly canine, watching Star Trek reruns for the 100th time this year? Ah, nah, no, not again.
I was at the market 2-days ago & some random dude asked me a question in the produce isle with prolonged, direct eye contact. I was so unnerved, I almost bolted like a frightened deer on my untanned getaway sticks. Now, I realize many of us have been shut-in for over 1-yr... & admittedly, as an introvert who isn't usually comfortable with creatures of the human persuasion, it's not hard for me to feel off-kilter, even just shopping... but, I forgot that there are others besides me who try to be present.
My only thought was... is that how normal men interact with normal women? That hadn't happened to me in 1, 2, 3, ah lots of years.
The last time I had direct eye contact like that with a man, was the day I left my ex-bf to move from CO to CA, more than a few yrs ago... & he was trying to convince me to stay, with flowers (partially wilted, filler flowers on sale from the supermarket), handwritten love notes tucked into my packed belongings, saying my name (gee, when was the last time I'd heard that... ah, months, a year, from my mum?) & intense, big, round puppy eyes. My only thought then was... how meaningless, with your wilted flowers.
Engagement is intoxicating, when it's meaningful. I don't like people to think they have no meaning. A tiny bit of engagement goes a long way, especially to a shy, quiet introvert like me.
Now, is that so hard?4 -

Untanned get away sticks 💀😂 I love that. This was written well and it resonates with me. I hope you find someone who keeps trying. I end up with those types all the time too. You’re a piece of furniture until you leave.1 -

TY for your nice words. I guess if we live long enough, most of us have had relationship woes.
In reality, once I realized I/we create or allow everything, I changed. Who knew it was so easy to walk away.
Be well...1 -

I would like to be an end-table.
No.
Wait.
A Recliner.... yeah, a Recliner.

You have lovely Corinthian leather.
I don't mean that in a sexist way.
Or, maybe I do... cuz I've never seen a female Corinthian recliner.2 -

Would that cactus be considered furniture? If so, I'd want to be that, all prickly and spiny. Like get away from me and leave me alone.
I should've placed engagement nearer to the top of my list way back when, instead of cool and hippyish.
The fact TV and cigarettes were his life back then....don't know what made me think I could change him.
Trust me people, if you think you can change someone to be who you'd like them to be for you, stomp that notion right into the ground. Right now.5 -
@ReenieHJ Good advice! But aren't those guys that never change the most attractive? If I have one weakness when it comes to the opposite sex it's guys who are confident and know who they are and would never change for me or anyone. I think the problem, for me, when I was younger was that I'd fall for a guy and try to fit into his life however I could, and didn't worry about anything else. I didn't know or care what I needed in a relationship, just that I was all about that particular man, haha...
