ethereal_flower thanks for your insight. i guess your team is lucky that you are both their captain and their friend. my friend is having a hard time dealing with her teamates because i think they treat her with less respect. it's not that she is dogmatic or anything like...

ethereal_flower thanks for your input. i wish i shared your optimism because i agree with you when you say that relationship is something that's built on trust. i trust myself that i won't cheat on anyone. i just don't know if i could bring myself to trust that my partner...

ethereal_flower i'm so sorry to hear that. that must be really aweful. i can't imagine how i would react if i found the two people i trust most in the world cheating on me. i know it may be difficult to trust people again, that's what my friend told me. because she got back...

My week thus far, has been a mixture of 'the good and the bad.' While rejoicing in my 'pleasant surprises,' an incident took place between my daughter, and one of her 'dearest friends.' My daughter is sixteen, and has been in...

ethereal_flower i totally agree with you when you say that sometimes you can never get back to where you were before. i was in that situation and even though my friend and i are already in good terms and we already hang out and stuff, it's so hard to get the trust and...

they say that love is better the second time around. my best friend just got back together with her ex and things have been better for her. i am not really sure i would be that agreeable on this, especially if two people broke up...

love

second chances

ethereal_flower i agree with you on this. or at least if they can't leave each other alone then the best thing they could do is just be friends. i guess since it never worked out the first time, it's kind of an against-all-odds thing to fall all over again, knowing how...

it seems to me like the more i make a person special, the more he takes me for granted. this could go for friends and lovers alike. i am fond of spoiling the people i love rotten. i give them stuff, i give them my time and...

ethereal_flower i have also decided to let them be and just be good to myself as artemis has previously posted. i guess we just have to be kind to others and the rest will be up to them. good for you that you also have decided to give yourself a break. i think we should do...

ethereal_flower and i thought i was the only thinking that way about those valentines day commercials! because almost all diamond websites quickly associate diamonds to girls and love and i think that it's not really true for all. and yes, i also would not want to wear...

ethereal_flower thanks jenski! you got a point there. sometimes i end up being too focused on people that i forget having a life of my own. and it sometimes gets to the point where i draw happiness from my relationships with others when happiness can easily be drawn from...

ethereal_flower wow, 7 years is a long time so i'm thinking you really got something special going there. i actually feel the same way. it's not really that we're expecting them to treat us in a special way everyday, right? it's just that sometimes things get too ordinary or...

ethereal_flower i agree, it's really important to have time for people even if you already feel you are special to them and everything. it's like the game SIMS where if you don't hang out with your SIMS friends, your relationship level decreases until you are not friends...

ethereal_flower thank you so much for posting your point of view aussies2007. well it's not really that i spoil them rotten to get something in return. it's just something that i love to do and i'm happy doing it. and it's true, i would rather not be treated special everyday...

ethereal_flower i think you got a point there, i may have gone overboard in spoiling them rotten so they actually feel that they won't have to work so hard to earn my trust and friendship and that they can just take things for granted. it's not really like i'm expecting...

ethereal_flower true. i guess i just have to live with that fact that people do get bored with people too so i guess i'll just have to cherish the moment and not expect for the same thing to happen tomorrow. thanks for posting, have a nice day too.

ethereal_flower that is so true. because work becomes all the more stressful if you bring the problems you got at home to your work desk. you just won't be able to concentrate on your work. and when this happens, you won't be able to work effectively. same thing at home,...

ethereal_flower yeah, it sure does cement those to-do's in my head so once i've gotten used to it, i can quickly recall that i wrote something i had to do, so that even without having to look it up i would be able to remember what that thing was. sometimes the problem with me...
