Ya'll...

I have said my peace about that post and I don't want to bring it up any more than necessary. It is not something this board is about.

I have to agree here.... Men want what they do not have or at least what they are not quite sure about. I am 40 years old and I have been engaged 3 times. I've been married (only once) now for almost 20 years. My mother (who has been married to my dad for 42 years) says that men are like puppies....try to keep them in the house and they will whine and cry and beg to get outside...throw their furry asses out the door and they will whine and cry and scratch to get in. I prefer the begging to get in...it's working for me! So, be cool, be fun, be funny, almost aloof and you will see that man begging for YOUR attention.

Good luck!

Again, I am not going to the party with him as originally planned. I am meeting about 20 people. I don't understand why it is so important that I am there but for some reason it is important to him.

I am going. I am going because I am living my life. I am going no matter how I will hurt or how I will react. I am going because I want to fight for this man. I am going because I am not going to let any man no matter how much I care or love him stop me from my life. I am planning on talking with him privately but only to see how he is doing.

He is caught between his feelings for 2 different people. I understand that since I was there. I, being a woman, took less time to decide. However, because I do care about him a great deal I am respecting his wishes no matter how impatient I am.

The worst of the grieving is somewhat over and the nice numb feeling is taking hold. I think that it is time for my pride to come back and give me the strength I know I have and what unfortunatly I am known for. I want to see him. I want to be able to flirt and show him that no matter that he has hurt me I still care and I am willing to forgive and move past this. I want to see my friends. I want to laugh. I just want to be with him even for an hour or two.

But for the last time I AM NOT GOING WITH HIM.
