Awwwh lady, now ya made me feel bad. I meant it all in the physical being sense not the physical beauty queen stereo type that so many slobs get there hearts set on. Not ever getting to know the person. Truth is they’re the losers. As I’m sure you’ve heard many times before a mirror is only a reflection, not the real you. It’s the real you that counts. Don’t go beating yourself up. Me personally, I could give a rats ass (sorry about the lingo) about outer looks – never have. I’ve dated tall, fat, short, not so pretty, and beautiful. Before I hooked up with Candy 27+ years ago my best relationship was with a girl that was definitely fat, didn’t have a lot of looks but boy was she a nice lady. Intelligent, fun and nice to talk to. Sadly many men watch too much TV and read too many magazines with all the beauties so to speak and I believe in a way they become brain washed. It’s easy for me to say to will find someone, and I do believe that, but I also think one of the first steps is for you to get past the negative feelings you have yourself. It’s a case of the kettle calling the pot black in a big way as I have so many negative feelings about myself, although most are related to health not all are. Many just don’t want anything to do with me because I’m not the partying, drinking, going out all the time person. Many years ago when I did drink before I started having seizures ironically I had more friends. Alcohol being the common bond I guess, beats me. Now I’m told I talk to much, and that’s really just because of loneliness – I sit here from day to day to day, go out twice a week and try to bowl and naturally I’m gonna talk when I see a friend. I do believe though the first step in wanting people to be nice to you is to be nice to yourself Poet. Please don’t beat yourself up. I for one think you’re a pretty nice lady.

yeah, well, i think there was definitely some "knowing" going, in the biblical sense. and it wasn’t with me. > Truth is they’re the losers. As I’m sure you’ve heard many times before a > mirror is only a reflection, not the real you. It’s the real you that counts.
the real me only counts in horseshoes. or something like that.

i’m told that a lot, but that’s not who anyone wants to go home with or to at the end of the proverbial day. > Sadly many men watch too much TV and read too many magazines with all the > beauties so to speak and I believe in a way they become brain washed.

i didn’t feel negatively about myself until it was helpfully pointed out to me that i should. and it worked. > It’s a case of the kettle calling the pot black in a big way as I have so many > negative feelings about myself, although most are related to health not all > are.
yes, i can imagine that makes it much worse. > Many just don’t want anything to do with me because I’m not the partying, > drinking, going out all the time person.
me, neither, but those people don’t interest me anyway. > Many years ago when I did drink before I started having seizures ironically I > had more friends. Alcohol being the common bond I guess, beats me.
or everyone’s crutch. i don’t drink much any more, and when i do, like last night, it’s always alone. > Now I’m told I talk to much, and that’s really just because of loneliness – I > sit here from day to day to day, go out twice a week and try to bowl and > naturally I’m gonna talk when I see a friend.
the people who say you talk too much are usually the ones who do, miffed ’cause they can’t get a word in edgewise. > I do believe though the first step in wanting people to be nice to you is to > be nice to yourself Poet.
i am nice to myself. i even treated myself once to the delusion that i could be cared about. ha ha ha ha! that was funny while it lasted. > Please don’t beat yourself up. I for one think you’re a pretty nice lady.

Aw….jeez, Poet. Sometimes what we see when we look at ourselves in the mirror isn’t even close to what others see when they look at us. Remember the saying about beauty being in the eye of the beholder ? It’s true. We tend to be over-critical of ourselves sometimes. You’re a person with feelings and lots of love to give someone….but….you have to give someone a chance and not close all the doors and windows. Yes…it is easier said than done, but it can be done.

Yeah !!! That’s what I was trying to say…along with what Chief added. Now you know if there are people here that feel this way, Poet, there has to be people in the real world that feel the same way.

not likely. i had a vascular headache for three months a year and a half ago that went way only with prescription medication, and sunday i began to feel the same kind of pain and nausea. now it’s here full force. i don’t want to go back to the doctor for it. but can’t live with it, either… don’t know why. never been prone to headaches. — For info about this service, see http://anon.twwells.com/help/ or e-mail: h…@anon.twwells.com — for an automatically returned help message ad…@anon.twwells.com – for the service’s administrator ano…@anon.twwells.com — anonymous mail to the administrator

well, what i’m saying is that no beholder seems to see much of anything they want in my face. hence the never been desired or loved. it’s not really about what i think. > It’s true.

sorry to hear about your headaches-doesn’t sound like any fun at all-take care, & try to stay nice-seems like I’m told to often I am "too nice a guy"-I don’t understand

you can’t be too nice. well, you can if you want to be rich and famous, but i don’t. thanks. i still have it this morning. this is not good.

me either-I mean if someone wanted to give me millions I wouldn’t tell him to get lost, but it isn’t a goal of mine at all-I like spending it too much. And as for being famous, well, I’m already a legend in my own mind! hope your headaches have subsided… gb

Well…um….it isn’t always easy, but I firmly believe there is a soulmate out there for each and every one of us. And…sometimes they can be so elusive. Just don’t ever give up hope, Poet.
