hello I am PsyTron and I am clean ubbrollsmile
I was in relationship the last 5 years of my life(i am 23-24 now) with 3 different people.Normally I thought that there is not any other kind of relationship except serious ones.(when I say serious i do not mean marriage).I broke up with my last boyfriend one month ago.We were together for 2 years.We were practicaly living together.This relationship, i knew it was making me weak:( too much pressure.Here is a song that I like and I have never listened to the lyrics until now... and i think it sais a lot of what i want to say:
here's my life and here's my way
and here's my body here's my pain
meet my mother see my train
get on get on get on get on

walk with me in my strange life
I've no things to show and no things to hide
life is fair and this blooming game
will go on and on and on

this possession never was a question
a healer for this tension
tenderness and pressure
from my warnings all you got was your needs
all you did was promise
you were only fake

little by little touch by touch
our eyes grew cold our hands grew rough
little by little losing touch
hello hello hello hello

failed in trust got sunk in pain
obsessed with love and clouds and rain
lives collapse and this [censored] game
goes on and on and on



the last 4 lines are what i really know from my experience.
In this time of my life I do not want to have any relationship.I have someone that we talk and we sleep together but I do not want anything more.Enough is enough redface

so what do you think???

"For once there was an unknown land, full of strange flowers and subtle perfumes,
a land of which it is joy of all joys to dream, a land where all things are perfect and poisonous."

Ignor him darlin! you ARE a godess and make sure you keep telling your self that hug. If you have a ''sleeping together relationship'' but dont actually sleep together and this guy is a complete jerk and wast of time why are you stioll in contact with him?
Your obviously upset about things at the moment so just tell this guy to censored off and listen to the people who care about you!
I hope you start to feel better soon,

"to be loved is grand, to be prefered is what i desire"






Thanx Mr M - this very succunctly articulates what I've been trying to understand about how i feel about relationships and men. No more men for me til someone prefers - to spend time with me & me over others.
kiss

Teejay so glad you're happy, you were GLOWING on sunday! Will we see him at the necxt meet?? ubbrollsmile hug

I believe in both freedom and relationship and then you found somebody who you can have trust in who takes all sides of you, you can be like you are and of course all the other way around too, all is possible but sometimes it is a long long way to see what is possible even then it is the entire time right next to you

What is psychology?- Looking for a black cat in a dark room. What is psychoanalysis? Psychoanalysis is looking for a black cat in a dark room -- in which there is no cat -- but finding one anyway.

Greetings from the new guy!!

About this whole relationships vs singledom thing. I recently had to break up with my girl friend. I was toying with the idea for a while, until I realised, it was no longer the point of whether or not she made me happy. But rather the fact that she made me unhappy!

The most important thing is that you're happy!

Where the mind goes,
The body will follow...

Okay, so update with me.... Yeah, so this Bobo isn't single anymore biggrin

We told my family two nights ago... I was so worried about what they would say... Their reaction.... Hugs and kisses! hugkiss They seemed to all be really happy about it! Now my host dad always has this huge grin when he sees Christoph and I together... I was so relieved - so surprised! - at their reaction. Lastnight while celebrating christmas, Christoph told Oma, and she was also very happy... And even told him it was a very good choice wink redface biggrin

So, everything is all happy happy, cuddly and good. Then I got my christmas call from Dad in Canada. It was kinda hard, because he is so depressed right now, because it's Christmas, I'm not home, and he and my mum don't really talk. Ever.

Told my dad... He isn't pleased. He started going on and on about the age difference (16, 21) and that I was leaving, and what would happen if we broke up, etc. etc. Like I ahven't thought about that before??? I tole him we both knew the risks we were taking when we decided to be together. And that everyone here is so happy for us! ('yeah, for now they're happy' was his reasponse) I tried to explain that I dont want to worry so much about coming home because it will interfere with my living here! If I let my head get to me, like I was talking about earlier in this thread, I wouldn't have done this, and I wouldn't be as happy as I am right now!!

I guess I'm rather upset about it... I told my brother, he said it was a bit weird, but told me to follow my heart, and do what made me happy. I love my brother so much more for that. Dad didn't even ask if I was happy... Not once.

My mom was working xmas, and wasn't home. I'm so upset I'm almost in tears... My life in Halifax seems so much more depressing than my life here. My brother said he was very glad I wasn't home this year for christmas because of all the problems with my family. If you can call it a family. I never want to leave Germany now.

Excuse me, while I go get some hugs from my boyfriend...

been there an done that darlin. To tell the truth im still doing it.
Im trying to ween myself off of her an stopping myself from jumping for my fone to text or fone her all the time. It only makes me miss her even more. I want to stay in contact with her but some times i get the feeling that she isnt that bothered which really hurts.
If its causing you pain (like it has/is me) then you have to cut it as much as you can. I dont mean tottaly cause i no for me at least i wont be able to do that, but youve gotta try or you will jus get your head all messed up babe...

Before I came travelling...I had had a girlfriend for 6months...she goes off to CampAmerica, and I'm due to follow her three months later to meet her and travel the US together for a month. 2months before I'm due to leave I get a phone call from her saying its over and that she doesn't want to see me in the US!! She gave no reason, just it hurt too much to be apart
Absolutely devestated....that was six months ago...and I've met loads of couple and people in relationship without their other half.
There have been different responses...

But ultimately, I think it was the time apart...and the hurt it was causing that made her break up with me...When she left we were happy....and so I hope there is a chance when I get home as well!

Love is a [censored] up thing.....but most of us want it because it feels right to have someone you love around you!

Health is a secondary consideration when you have a lifestyle to maintain

Yeah, but judging what is love and what is need for a relationship is often hard to distinguish, and that's dilemma between wanting to be single and wanting to be in a relationship I guess, I'm only happier single cos then i won't have to deal with my apalling lack ok of judement yet again when it goes wrong

I had a relation with a boy for 8 moths, we broke up because we both warn't in love any more.
At that moment I loved it to be single,
but after a time a starting to feel lonely.
Even I have a lot of good friends having a boy friend
is very different.
I was single for all most a year.
But a few months ago I met a boy at orchestra.
I liked him form the moment we met.
But he had a girl friend.
A few weeks later he broke up whit his girlfriend.
And a moth later we got a relation.
We are now a week and a half together.
And I'm very happy.
I love my life, and I love him.

Live your life, the way you want to live it.
So have fun. And be happy sunny
Love you nantheos ubblove

Does anyone have the 'not wanting to grow old and die alone' fear influencing their thoughts on being single v. being part of a couple? Alright, for everyone there is at least some time left (or lots and lots if you're quite young), but does it still have a bearing?

A way around this of course is to live with a very good friend who has ended up in a similar position. No obligation to marry (unless you want to, of course) and company until the end of your days. A last resort (save from buying a significant other over the 'net) but one that I've had discussions about over a shared bottle of wine.

Borath you're WAY too young to be thinking/worrying about being alone when you're old!!! but companionship with someone you trust and love is pretty much what it's all about so it's not a bad option. My sis has a 'friend with benefits' at the minute - they like each other & sleep together but neither is under the delusion it can be anything long term. Fine for now, but won't someone get hurt in the end?

And ravehead you're so right - there's the used and the users in this world and they're equally divided between male and female. People can be so cruel and hurtful and insensitive it takes your breath away.

Frankly, right at this moment I'd settle just just one friend around who gives a flying f**k whether I'm there or not. Perils of re-locating I guess, I'm just not important to anyone and boy that hurts at this time of year

its even worse wild child when you've never moved in your life and you aren't sure if anyone cares if you're around or not.

heres an email with a definition of love i wrote for a friend after msn crashed and our convo was cut short.

"That though you gave me was a bit of a b***h but I think the feeling that stumped me the most was love. This is the best I could come up with.


Love is true and cannot be a lie. Love is eternal, for those who don’t love forever don’t love at all. Love is always itself and nothing else, it is constant and cannot be compromised or changed. Love is pure, impure love is not love, but lust. Love is without violence as violence is hate and more unnecessary than all other feelings. Love is life for without love there are no pleasures for which to live for. Love is strength for those who have it fear nothing and want nothing because they have seen human existence at its most peaceful and beautiful. Love of one singular object, living or non-living, is not love as love must be for everything and hopefully from everything. Love is a state of mind, see it as you may,
But that is my Idolisation of love.

Now when I read that I realise how hard love must be but I spose you shouldn’t have to try, ah screw it. Love is the most difficult thing in the world. I only hope some people find it."

i dont know, i was like 13 or something when i wrote it and i still sort of like it. but it also makes me cringe, what do you guys think?

Bl***y hell - you wrote that when you were 13??? Whilst I might take you to task with 1 or 2 of those sentiments, the concluding sentiment (the bit from 'Love is life for without love....' is such an absolute truth and the stark simplicity of your expression is nothing short of inspirational! Most people dnever get that kind of insight and those that do reach it late

What do you write now? Don't say nothing - that'd be a waste of talent.

And as for being alone in your hometown - i reckon you're right, that's much worse. Reckon it's just us non-conformists never quite fitting in anywhere - leastways that's how I've felt ever since I realised I'm not quite the same as everyone else....

We love you tho hun - and we'd notice if you weren't here hug kiss

I like what Mr Majestik wrote too, and his potential talent today does make my eyebrows raise a few notches.

Getting on the bandwaggon, I wrote this in the middle of the night whilst feeling drunk and introspective a few months ago:

The mystery and the muscle of love.

Because that's what it is. It isn't fluffy bunnies and rich sunsets, nor is it sweet nothings and gentle touches. Not real love.

It is an ache, a yearning, a drive so powerful that you have no choice but to run with it, to run with the addiction, the lust, the awe and the happiness the blossoms throughout all.

It is beyond understanding, beyond thought as to what this precious connection is, what this fine unbreakable chain is anchored to and the reason behind its appearance. We know not why we fall for another, we only know that it was right.

It is a choice and an effort, a careful dance with strong steps wherein you must catch the other when they stumble or risk falling together. It is pushing and learning, it is reacting, it is growing off, through and with another.

It is overcoming trial and torment, barriers and hurdles, deciding that they are worth it and to push all the harder. To fight for them. It is justly suffered for, to maintain when it is difficult and perservere when they get worse. It is seeing the larger picture, away from the trials of the year ahead or the weeks behind, and to know that it is worth it all.

It is being happiest in their presence. It is glowing at their touch. It is being true and honest to yourself as you regard their judgement of your nature higher than you do your own. And no matter what you think, they do love you for it, the do see you as something worth loving, because they put in the muscle and dance with the mystery. And the pleasure at returning this feeling, seemingly so simple an action though it threatens to destablise your world in its intensity, is matched only by seeing it reflected in deep, rich eyes.4


Probably flimsy and hollow, but at the time it seemed to sum things up. You decide to love someone as much as you feel the emotion naturally, so it'll always be a challenge to be with someone no matter how much a match made in heaven it is.

I can't be evil; I'm wearing pink.

Yup - that pretty much sums up the paradoxes of loving and being in love hug

i think the beauty of young Mr majestic's ode was that it differentiated between romantic love and love as a driving force, an elemental force, essential to be being human - maybe that's what we lose sight of when we hit puberty and all those damn hormones start flying about.

And maybe that's what we've all been struggling with through out this thread.....
