I Like Learning New Things

Once on EP,I started to discover a whole different world that has many ways of screw a guy over but the one thing that seems to get old quickly was the stories on Relationship. How it started, how it ended. Also, you tend to get one of those sparkling personality that make an impression on others, become the highlight of the chat and after a few weeks they just disappear of the site and never to be heard of

I think people come to sites like this a little broken, and even though I'd like to claim that I'm ok after everything that I have been through, I know that I have issues to work through. I suppose it is natural to talk about relationships because we deal with them on a daily basis. I suspect that - even for those of us who try - we are a bit narcissistic. We all take everything personally, and anything that your partner does is taken personally - even though their issues have more to do with their own struggles than they have to do with you. So, instead of loving themselves, people internalize the drama that others put out and begin to question if there is something wrong with them. ALSO, people tend to look for happiness as an external source, which is insane. Life guarantees you nothing but another hurdle, and someone can't make you happy. It is NOT my job to make my child, friends, husband - or anyone else happy. You have to be satisfied and capable of dealing with what is thrown your way. Happiness is a choice we make every day, and it is tough. So, I think communities like EP and SW offer an opportunity to vent, which we all need. But it has to be healthy. You have to let yourself FEEL what you feel, but don't get bogged down or stuck there. If it is legitimate depression - see a doctor, but otherwise, make a decision and move forward... fight for happiness. We need to hold ourselves responsible for our bad choices - even in relationships. People say - I don't know what happened. I don't know why he doesn't love me? Well, start making better decisions and love yourself. We get what we tolerate, and I know good and well that is why I am in my current station.

Yeah it's funny, when the "ep team," spoke of ep they would talk about it as a place of long-lasting friendships and relationships, but people were more flighty than an airport on that site! Not sure about this one because I've only been on for a day. So we'll have to see.

Oh grumpy there are all kinds of stories. You don't have to focus on relationships. I see people writing about a lot of topics. I hope You find what you at looking for.
Aww I'm sorry. But I'm glad you're here.
