What happens is someome is scared of a real relationship?

Do we need to let someome on our hearts? My older sister thinks I'm scared of dating again and I don't let someone in my life or in my heart, I may miss out on a wonderful man and relationships will have fights and ups and downs and downs and I can't avoid conflicts forever. I haven't dated in 5 years. What's wrong with that?

Most people are too quick to trust and to believe. It is not wrong to decide not to date. Romance is a very risky area of life for most of us. I stopped dating when my boyfriend died in 1993. Not dating after he died has made me happy because I don't have to deal with a lot of emotional instability and unhappiness. Dating and romance is just not good for everyone.

Why not sign up your older sister for a computer dating service? It sounds like it might make her happy. Then you do what makes you happy.

@AspieWoman89 That might not be a correct understanding. Believe me, his death broke my heart. But not dating again has worked for me. I realize that might not be the case for everyone. I am just about to post a story about my boyfriend and what happened when he died.

@AspieWoman89 I just posted my story. For some of us, it's very hard to trust again.

@MURD3RM0NK3Y Do your friends and family bug you about it?

MURD3RM0NK3Y · 26-30, M

@AspieWoman89 Yea mostly family. It gets annoying so I just don’t see them as often. Next time they bug me about it I’m going to tell them to stop asking about my personal life because it’s none of their business really. That’s all my dad ever talks to me about is women like that’s what I’m supposed to do with my life is chase women
