@caccoon that's a good way to look at it. I wish it came that naturally to me lol. I feel like I keep myself at a distance on purpose or something & I don't let myself have real feelings anymore.

It's a wild game out here

@ChiefWalksWith40oz I understand, I'm kind of the same. It's hard for me to open up to people now, I'm pretty dismissive of love, or maybe scared of it.

Just do what's best for you for now 😊 it's a long life and we grow and change at our own pace

@Spoiledbrat maybe that's why it gets harder to do

@MorbidCynic it just takes the right person maybe? It's a good thing to not fall too easily imo 👌

@Azlotto did? or still do?

@ChiefWalksWith40oz Did. She hurt me in so many ways.

@SW-User I like that 🤔 I'ma keep it in that memory storage place

@ChiefWalksWith40oz Good. I hope you remember it when love seems hard to take and give.

@Randie yeah I tend to say I don't really believe in soul mates & shit like that anymore, it's just about whoever you make shit work with. Some people can work easier together than others it just depends. Not everyone likes when I say that though 😂
I'm glad you found someone though

@xzLucaszx yeah you can't really plan something like that. It just happens & it's some crazy shit lemme tell ya

@SW-User I feel that 😅

@th3r0n that's dope though I'm glad it all worked out 👌 it's when you don't even expect it sometimes I guess

@ChiefWalksWith40oz only God knows, I’ll say it worked out when we are married, I surely know I don’t want anyone else

@exexec do you wanna deal with another one or nah?

@ChiefWalksWith40oz I'll stick with the one I have.

@exexec oh I misread your original comment lol

@SW-User rip Anton 🙏 he will be missed.. well.. maybe 🤷 idk

@InHeaven I hear about people who have never loved anyone as much as that first time, but there's also people who find love even better. I just wonder which one I'll turn out to be. So far I haven't seen that type of love in anybody else. I'm not sure how much of that is because of me pushing it away but I'm told I have a bad habit of doing that

@ChiefWalksWith40oz I don’t understand what it is like to never have loved anyone.... Poor things 🤔🤔🤔

@nightjourney I don't trust long distance relationships because I'd never know what they were doing & honestly I just can't be with somebody I can't see personally. Sounds like that dude wasn't even making the time for you though. You deserve better than that

@ChiefWalksWith40oz I feel the same way, it can be scary because you never know anyones true intentions. I always think everyone is gonna leave me, and I haven’t been wrong yet. But sometimes I think what if my mindset, actually manifests that happening? So I’m not sure if I should think more positive and be more open to people or always keep my guard up and let no one in. Because at the end of the day when a relationship fails, I feel so stupid and I get angry that I let my guard down, even a little just to get hurt. But if I don’t open up at all and push everyone away, I might miss my real chance at that love that I want. Again though, I’m not sure who to trust anymore 😐🤷🏽‍♀️

@SW-User Yeah I know what you mean. I push everybody away but I don't mean to. I still want the affection though so I date, I open up, but I keep walls up & I'll walk away if it goes too far. I think most of us kinda develop our own ways of keeping certain distances to avoid catching feelings & shit.
You're right though our own walls block ourselves too 🤷

@ChiefWalksWith40oz I do the same, and yeah I usually always keep most of myself completely private and guarded. Because it seems like people use you opening up to them to hurt you 🤷🏽‍♀️,

Same@Pinkstarburst I really truly loved my “third” love. Then I realized that first and second were not or some kind of a lesser love or what the heck. Third is stronger than first and second combined 🤔🤔🤔😄🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

@Pinkstarburst I've realized that before too.. kinda makes me wonder if that just happens over & over
