    Suffering isn't a prerequisite for wrting good poetry. It is hard work and determination, and a love of words and word play is also helpful. Great Haikus'. Check out Billy Collins, the man is a whip without suffering.

    One little thing at a time, I unarm you. Great line. Wind on an open wet wound. I like the alliteration, good image. Nice job.

    We bounce with the wind and hopscotch in heaven Great line. Great poem. You have a great command of language. Nicely done. I am curious, what other poets are you reading??

    O, Someties when we are looking we do not see what it is we need,we try to find all the things we want in a person who may be only in our lives for a short period. I would relax a bit and give yourself a break. True love will find you.... it may take some time but the true love you seek will find you eventually. In the mean time you can persue as many women as you want. Their are many out their so why settle for one right now. And I am not suggesting sleeping with everyone, but you can date many on a casual level. Get to know them, and try to find women with different interests and physical traits. be well.

    He has to want to change in order for him to not display his tantrums any more. Sounds like he has deeper rooted problems. Think twice before going back to him and then think it over again. SOunds like he is on the verge of being abusive, physically, and verbally. Do not let you feelings cloud your judgement here. Ask yourself if you deserve to be treated the way he reacts when things aren't going his way. I assure you the longer you two are involved the more of this behavoir will be displayed by him. be well.

    Their was a quote from a movie The Mexican goes like this... "If two people love each other, but they just can't seem to get it together, when do you get to that point of enough is enough? "

    Hey ROse, Sorry you have to experience this sort of behavoir, but it is all around us even in the professional business world. It is something i dont think any of us can fully escape, it is human nature. What really mattes is how you feel and view yourself. I understand your felings were hurt, but I also know you do not truly value other peoples opinions that highly, especially when they are about you. Perhaps you needd to see this to learn that this guy and this girl are the people you do not want surooundign you as friends. No one can make you feel inferior without your consent, I believe Elanor Roosevelt said that. Be well Rosie, Brando.

    The problem with positive thinking is that all of us have some core limiting beliefs about ourselves. The "I am not good enough " thoughts that simply wipe out all the positive thinking one can muster. The longer we had these negative limiying beliefs the more energy has been stored up behind them and within them, so some flimsy positive thought has no chnce agaisnt these power houses. Elimiate the limiting beliefs and then the positive beliefs will gradually transpire. Be careful of what you think....

    Sometimes it is good to UNPLUG.

    I dont think anyone really does know. I think it is a crcok when people say they knew. I think it is a journey two people are willing to take together. No gurantees though. The better you now yourself the better a mate you can choose to SHARE your life with. And i don't think being in love is a basis for being married. Just my opinion.

    You are best to no longer ask why. It will only drive you crazy and keep you from moving on. I am sorry for the pain you are suffering, but the question game is relentless and it sheds little light on your situation. I have been here and it was pointless for me. In time you will gradually see what is to be revealed to you. It is a long dark heavy curtain that is slowly pulled away a bit at a time for you to see what is needed for your personal benefit and recovery. I didnt like where you are at now, the thought of that place sends shivers down my spine... but the brightside is you will get through this and prosper. Acceptance is the antidote. be well.

    Equinox Why would you believe that if you are single on Valentines Day you are unlucky??? I agree with Chai, it isn't a big deal, so don't make it one, and stop watching these corny videos that other miserable souls are making. You have a choice, to feel good or not feel good. It isn't dependent on a realtionship. SO make a choice and feel good. A significant other is not needed to feel good about yourself, so don't believe it. You choose.

    You did good Orlander. Humor is great to use when meeting a woman. Don't should on yourself now, you smiled, exchanged words, and nex time you see her ask her out for coffee or a drink...etc.... don't worry know you didn't get her number, you will.

    A mistake? A msitake you wouldn't make? Maybe you need to respect your friends decision. They are making a choice, not a mistake. If it doesnt work out, they will make another choice. Please don't confuse what you would do and what they are doing.

    perhaps it is your belief that this girl is the one, is the root of your problem. Enjoy it for what it is, and stop focusing on her being the one.

    You may have bigger issues here with this guy. Id think about the relationship and what it means to you, and consider ending it or accepting thae fact he wont go south.
  23. brando
    Nice work Chai.... you summed it up nicely. I love the minimallistic style.
  24. brando
    I don't deserve better. These things we hold onto, these thoughts, are referred to as limiting self beliefs. Very damamging to hold onto.

    it takes two to bring that love back. i read once love is an action, and the more loving two people act toward eachother the stronger love can grow. Most people think it is only a feeling, present in a relationship or not. I disagree about it just being a feeling.
