Karala Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Someday he'll come along The man I love And he'll be big and strong The man I love And when he comes my way I WON'T DO SH*T TO MAKE HIM STAY ...for a change.
Ajax Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Here I am, Karala. But I'm not a big guy so I hope that's okay
Kazmi Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Here I am, Karala. But I'm not a big guy so I hope that's okay I agree with you Karala, fighting over a person to make them stick around is such a wrong concept.
Author Karala Posted June 21, 2011 Author Posted June 21, 2011 Here I am, Karala. But I'm not a big guy so I hope that's okay lol ^^ I'm a tall girl (5'8) and I wear high heels often so... you figure out if that works for you

Nice. Like it!! I wish I'd just kept quiet to make my ex stay. Thats all I needed to do. Suppress some feelings for a weekend and not express them. Doesn't sound difficult does it? *slaps forehead repeatedly* Ok, so just came up with this, what do you think? Soon in the future I'll jump back to the past Go through a portal to fix my mistakes with a blast Then I'm come home, I'll return to the present And everything around me will be so much more pleasant But before you tell me 'It can't be done' Think of the cycles of our solar system sun Because the rays of light that travel to our eyes Can be bent and twisted to reveal a surprise Ok, so now maybe you are secretly thinking 'I'm out of my mind', I've probably been drinking But examine my words closely and you'll probably find That although my heart has been ripped into shreds There is something inside me which leaks out in my threads That hint of a sparkle behind my typed words Which flutters its twinkles like a flock of wild birds And maybe its true that my brain's full of pills But even with this fact you can't see the stills Of how I am plotting my journey to the end Writing an email which I may or not send Letting my soul hook up to this site And staring through the screen into the dark light.

Kilty Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Someday he'll come along The man I love And he'll be big and strong The man I love And when he comes my way I WON'T DO SH*T TO MAKE HIM STAY ...for a change. The man in me will do nearly any task As for compensation, there's a little he will ask Take a woman like you To get through to the man in me. Storm clouds are raging all around my door I think to myself I might not take it anymore Take a woman like your kind To find the man in me. But, oh what a wonderful feeling Just to know that you are near It sets my heart a-reeling From my toes up to my ears. The man in me will hide sometimes to keep from being seen But that's just because he doesn't want to turn into some machine Take a woman like you To get through to the man in me. ps - i'm 6 foot 1

Author Karala Posted June 21, 2011 Author Posted June 21, 2011 I was on a dating site for a while, when I was big into my "get him back" phase, the advice said it was good to date other people for a while. I actually met with a bunch of guys. AND THEY SUCKED. (RL, for the love of Stephen Fry, you need to watch that video)

I'm over my ex...maybe still a few down days here and there and recently went on Match. Not appealing whatsoever.
JasonRules Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 I feel you Karala. I'm over my ex...maybe still a few down days here and there and recently went on Match. Not appealing whatsoever. Gee, I'm in the same boat as you. It's unfortunate because I have met some nice women on their, but because of my trauma they are not given a fair shot by me. Not because I don't want to, but because I don't feel ready yet. Right now, I'm thinking of getting off it and just stop dating for a while and let time work its magic.

Wow! Thank you! I'm honored that you think its song worthy!! I literally just wrote it off the top of my head, tweaked it a little for better flow etc, but really didn't expect it to be described as "irresistible". I'm glad you like it! Yes please feel free to make any changes to make it better fit the music. I wish I could play a musical instrument but alas I'm pretty sure I'm tone deaf. The two sentences you queried are identical so not sure what you mean exactly? But like I say please use any and all alterations you deem necessary to make it fit your music! I'd love to hear the result! When I wrote it I wasn't thinking in a musical way, but would be awesome to hear what it would sound like as a song! I was on a dating site for a while, when I was big into my "get him back" phase, the advice said it was good to date other people for a while. I actually met with a bunch of guys. AND THEY SUCKED. (RL, for the love of Stephen Fry, you need to watch that video) Awesome! I did sign up for online dating, mainly just to see that there are other guys out there, and maybe boost my confidence a bit by getting some interest. But to be honest I looked through countless profiles (maybe hundreds by this point) and I can honestly say none of them even come close to my ex. Although, maybe thats just because I'm still obsessed with him and he's still high on a pedestal in my world. I haven't been able to knock him off yet, can't even reach high enough to tug at his pant leg, but I have tried to focus long and hard on his negative traits and the times when he really hurt me. Mainly focusing on our first break up and various arguments etc, because I feel so responsible for this latest break up. To be completely honest though I feel somewhat to blame for every argument we had (and there weren't many), I guess thats my co-dependent nature shining through. Or maybe he really is an innocent Earth angel with not a speck of dirt to taint his past. He is definitely selfish. That much is true. But I know I'm selfish too. Because I invested so much and as much as I try and make peace now and pretend all my investments were gestures of unconditional love, I really know thats a load of hooey and really I was gambling at the table of love and expecting to win all that love I invested back and then some. Its shameful really. But that is the honest truth. I invested pretty much everything on the table of love, my happiness, my inner essence itself, and I made one bad bet and I lost it all. Thats the best description of what happened. I wanted so badly to be loved and appreciated for who I am, I invested all the love I could muster on my ex and I lost. And even though he's not around to reap the benefits of that love anymore, I'm still gambling and losing everyday. I have a problem. Love addiction, is like a gambling problem in many ways. You become obsessed with the prospect of winning. And you believe if only you keep investing that little bit more, that little bit more each day, then sooner or later you'll win the jackpot. But of course, you don't. Instead the more you gamble, the more you lose and the further in debt (or in the case of love addiction, depression) you sink. Edited June 21, 2011 by RuinedLife

Right now, I'm thinking of getting off it and just stop dating for a while and let time work its magic. Feel you J. I've gone on dates with some great guys. I'll go in excited and then for some reason, I'll find some excuse or reason not to pursue. I feel so ready at the time but when I need to make the next step, I go cold and find every reason to get out. I'm probably hiding behind my stance that it is "unappealing". When the truth is, I am afraid of getting hurt and I am not ready. I still miss him. As my gf always says, "body present, mind absent." I got off too. I wasn't doing anyone any good. I believe we will know when it is time. It will feel right and it will all fall into place. Edited June 21, 2011 by geegirl
