    well...take a break from putting yourself out there. let yourself recover and get stronger. hopefully you'll just end up meeting someone while going about your normal business. hopefully you both are enthusiastic about communicating and getting to know each other. i'd really like to see you finally succeed and find some lasting happiness w/ a girl. :) i know you want that, too.

    no problem......i don't mind listening/reading and i'm glad i could offer you some support. thank you for being supportive and the kind words, too. keep taking it easy. :)

    ah...yeah. i see what you're saying now.

    eh... dating and getting to know people is rough. you have to deal w/ the possibility of finding out the other person isn't as interested in you as you thought or finding out you've been tossed aside for someone else. :no would be nice for things to just go smoothly and work out well. i feel for you, malek. you are more brave than me. i don't even put myself out there....i don't feel i could handle going through so many heartbreaks.

    i feel like i'd only try if the other person is just beating down my door to be w/ me or something, lol.

    sorry, man. feel better. :)

    eeh. if she always responded a few hrs later, i would've taken that as a sign of not being that interested. or not being interested in anything other than friends.

    maybe this girl has trouble being assertive or, again, just wanted to be friends so she kept chatting. i don't know, but yeah, it really is good it happened only 4 months in.

    i'm sorry you got your head and heart messed w/, though. i know that's not pleasant.

    yeah......this girl sounds kind of immature, in my opinion. it is weird to not like someone because they're "too kind."

    not sure for her reasons for continuing to text.

    is she wanting to cut you off now or something? did she just meet this other guy?

    np :)

    that's a lot of hrs.....can you cut down somehow? you've got to put your health first...

    :no @ that girl. i understand how aggravating it is to feel like you've been led on and deceived. :no definitely does a number on you and is a challenge to recover from.

    sorry you're hurting. :hug i hope things ease up and that you are able to find something (or things) to distract you from the pain soon.

    yeah...i definitely think taking care of your health will pay off in the long run. can't do much when your health, mentally and/or physically, is not good or suffering. i hope you get closer to where you want to be in life this next year.... try to keep the positives in mind and note the progress you've made (even a change in how you think about/look at things counts).

    not too much is different from the last time we spoke. i'm pretty much still focusing on the same things.....work and trying not to stress. i may quit my job in the future or take a break, though. i feel like i've been in fight-or-flight for at least the past 2 yrs and like i'm becoming more and more resistant to this exposure stuff. i just feel like i need a rest from it for awhile. i feel like if i keep going i'm going to lose my mind even more or go too numb.
