Gala Posted February 13, 2011 Posted February 13, 2011 A dog in the manger like this guy is not a "better person." There is also something suspect about his saying he's a "lost cause" - possibly an ambivalent wish to have someone make him into a project. Hopefully, Roadlesstaken, that someone won't be you. Blind Otter is right about people showing you who they are in the beginning. It doesn't get better, and can certainly get worse. One thing to remember - we can be attracted to all kinds of people...crazy, sane, whatever. The attraction in and of itself does not impose a sentence on us, or dictate a future. It is how we decide to respond to it that matters.

I was just talking about this with a GF this morning over a green smoothie (because I'm all raw like that, yo lol). How in the past, I would just sort of end up with people because I felt that spark, that attraction, that excitement. Whatever. But retrospectively, I ended up with a series of losers and chodes. You are the power to generate positive purpose in your life. In all areas. You are generate a positive purpose towards romantic interaction. It's just never good to be excusing the behavior of someone you aren't in a longterm relationship with. What's the point? When you approach the world from a mindset of abundance...there is plenty to go around! There is plenty of love, plenty of romance, more than enough available emotionally healthy people! Believe it to be so!
