Author Tormented Posted March 21, 2007 Author Share Posted March 21, 2007 Perhaps then for the very same reason rebound relationships do not work out very often; it's a sort of forced "love". Exactly, Real! Rebounds are NOT the way to go and somebody will ALWAYS get hurt in one. No thanx! ~T~ Link to post Share on other sites
Am4Real Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Three women die together in an accident and go to heaven. When they get there, St. Peter says, "We only have one rule here in heaven: don't step on the ducks!" So they enter heaven, and sure enough, there are ducks all over the place. It is almost impossible not to step on a duck, and although they try their best to avoid them, the first woman accidentally steps on one. Along comes St. Peter with the ugliest man she ever saw. St. Peter chains them together and says, "Your punishment for stepping on a duck is to spend eternity chained to this ugly man!" The next day, the second woman steps accidentally on a duck and along comes St. Peter, who doesn't miss a thing. With him is another extremely ugly man. He chains them together with the same admonishment as for the first woman. The third woman has observed all this and, not wanting to be chained for all eternity to an ugly man, is very, VERY careful where she steps. She manages to go months without stepping on any ducks, but one day St. Peter comes up to her with the most handsome man she has ever laid eyes on - very tall, long eyelashes, muscular, and thin. St. Peter chains them together without saying a word. The happy woman says, "I wonder what I did to deserve being chained to you for all of eternity?" The guy says, "I don't know about you, but I stepped on a duck!" Hope all of you smiled at this one. We all need a little humor on this subject! Am4Real Link to post Share on other sites
Texan Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 As one of those men who has been divorced twice, I'm not sure what to say... I know that over the past year I found that dating was a pain... bear in mind I'm a young-ish 50 year old, but I was finding that there were first and second dates, but rarely a third... either I wasn't interested or she wasn't. I never had anyone call me on being married twice, however... My first marriage was for 18 years... and I'm the one who ended it. No, there was no cheating or anything like that... it boiled down to we both wanted different things and, even when I attempted to compromise, she wanted it her way or no way... I chose no way. My second marriage ended after 4 years when she began cheating on me... with at least two partners that I can confirm. I suspect 4, maybe 5, but can only prove two... not that it makes any difference now. I've been single for almost 5 years now and finally met someone who shares a great deal in common with me. I say this to let you know that there are good people out there... it just takes time to sift through all the chaff to get to the wheat... but it is worth it. Just take time for yourself and enjoy your own company... as cliche as it sounds, when it is time, the partner for you will show up... it happens. Best wishes on a happy future...
