I Never Did Trust Anybody

Not even now.
Yes, I have found a man who is more that I ever hoped for and yes, I
am ridiculously happy these days but truth be told, I live very
carefully most of the time. The age old thought habit driving the need
to be perfect is a tough one to overcome.
I am challenged this day to examine that position. Do I really
believe that no one is trustworthy? Where did that belief come from.
Hmmmm. Yes, there have been a few disappointments along the way. And
yes, a few people I thought were solid as the rock of Gibraltar had
feet of clay but in their humanity, weren’t their errors in judgment
right in line with who they were at the moment?
Three Pink Roses and The Cat That Ate Them

Bless my man’s heart! He brings me flowers, after nearly 4 years together.
You know that special kind of flowers?.the for-no-reason flowers.
I was on the phone (happens a lot) and he came home after golf
yesterday with three pink roses in a bud vase. Not just a bouquet from
the store. No, he took time and picked something for me.
I can’t help but reflect on how cool that is. I choose to realize
how happy he makes me feel at times. Knowing he took time to think of
me while he was away from me builds my confidence in my ability to
strengthen our connection by thinking about it in a consciously
positive way.
Why Can?t I Find My Soulmate?

The Answer May Surprise You.
The disappointment I hear in the voices of the women who are lonely and looking for romance in their lives is haunting.
“Why do I keep attracting the jerks and losers??
“All of the men in my age group are married or satisfied with being single.?
“What if I never meet the love of my life??
Ouch.
There is a hidden key to finding the man of
your dreams and believe it or not, it has nothing to do with your past
lovers or the emotionally distant relationship you might have with your
dad.
Would You Rather Be Happy?..Or Right?

I love men.
I really do.
But one of the things that is toughest for me is when the man in my
life thinks he is right when I am pretty darn sure that he is not.
It has been a challenge to pick my battles carefully. If it is
critical that he know that he is not as right as he thinks he is, I am
building the courage and the vocabulary to gently express myself. This
morning I mentioned that I met a new friend, a medical doctor, and that
I wanted to nurture the relationship.
