Often times they take jobs that keep them away from home such as mining, fishing, oil drilling,some shaman, military.. But they just can't seem to hold a relationship together when they're around their partner reguarlarly?.. Kind of like they were meant to know love, but never the stability or permanence? Maybe it's just me...

Nahhh I don't think it's just you friend I think there really are people that come from that type of mold. They site around just waiting for love to come to them but they never really think about giving it out. So therefore it usually just wind up passing them right on by. Or at least that's the way it seems to me. Anyhow happy mylot and have a great weekend!

Everyone has their own problems in life and many wounds from their childhood. It's sad that there are people like that who don't have either the self esteem it takes to love themselves enough to be open for love, or who don't have the ability to trust another opening. Relationships are so hard if you really think about it. You have to have a level or vulnerability to love another and sometimes it's hard to open yourself up with the knowledge of rejection or hurt. But here's some good news, my husbands in the military and because he's gone so much it has strengthened our relationship, doesn't mean that's it's easier when he's around, but that we know that we can work through anything!

I love my grandfather a lot however he is one of those people. He drove a truck for years. He would go on long hauls and be gone most of the week. As long as I can remember he done this. He had a heart attack and couldn't drive any more. Believe it or not my grandparents were divorces with in 18 months. They had been married for over thirty years but could not live together on a regular basis.

I have seen a few of them. Thankfully I have never been close with such people. Its so sad that they never seem to understand that they need to really put their hearts into any relationship and not just float around. They are people who are unsure of themselves and are generally non-committal.
