Quote From: xstie2000 Because we are older, and hopefully MUCH wiser, why would we
EVER settle? We are older so we have a clearer picture of what we
do and
do not want! We should be much more able to choose a partner in our "later" years than we
ever were when we were mere children in our teens and 20's! There are plenty of good people out there. Yes, the pickins' may be slimmer but that doesn't mean that our true soulmate does not exist! It simply means that we have to date a little more to find them, but for God's sake,
never settle! If you do, then what have you gained from all of your lifes lessons and experiences? Don't let them go to waste! Set your standards high, be optimistic and above all,
be patient!
Hi Xstie- I want to thank you SO much for what you wrote here! Your words could NOT have some at a more perfect time! I am 43 and never had a REAL GREAT man in my life-All I seem to meet are JERKS PCYCHOS!
I can NOT even tell you how many times Ive been called a failure-By "friends" neighbors- several men and women telling me -again and again-" You are ugly-You are a failure-and there is something wrong with you because you are still single at 43-
I also have a disablity-these very same ppl all the time tell me "No man will ever want you because of your disablity- and this and that- "
I wished I had your email -But in any event- I thank you for your words- I have settled and I its hard to have PATIENCE- (But CONSTANTLY hearing those horrible comments that Im a failure and no man will ever want me-Its hard to get away from that and be positve and patient-)
Thank you ma am- I AM hanging in there BUT it is SO hard (and some times painful) - I have had SO MANY MANY heartbreaks and my heart can NOT take any more! Sigh- The older I get -the longer it takes my heart to heal-
So thank you for your words-
