Over the past few years I'...Good for you Laura! Over the past few years I've been gradually giving up those things that I see as harmful or not needed. It has been so rewarding every step of the way. It has been a gradual but dramatic transition and it is great! I am married though, and I can't imagine being single. Oh my! That has to be really tough. Stay strong girl! Telling myself "no" usually works out well :)Julie Canant Stephensonhttp://facebook.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448405887794911142.post-69278055916906852472011-10-03T22:59:03.434-04:002011-10-03T22:59:03.434-04:00@KissingDisasters - I am a weak weak person, but f...@KissingDisasters - I am a weak weak person, but for the sake of my sanity - I must stay strong. Also, I'm not saying That I'm not going to renig in a couple weeks. <br /><br />@Ruthi - Thanks, haha! <br /><br />@Chris - Why? Because I have to. Because the fairy tales are WRONG people don't want you the way you are. They want you the way they want you. And trust me, I have had enough crappy experiences to fill a book. Case in point - ANY night I went to the Times- That alone would be a very large, large book. I'm over the crap. I want quality! Hopefully my new stories will be awesome and full of happiness and butterflies and rainbows. Also, people furniture? Where did you come up with that?LoRohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00355537360372980413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448405887794911142.post-55044538136665474542011-10-03T09:47:45.567-04:002011-10-03T09:47:45.567-04:00So I read this and i keep returning to the same th...So I read this and i keep returning to the same thought: Why? <br /><br />If the chase is really better than the success than why would you write it off entirely for the chance at having a "normal" or "functional" relationship? That's like saying the best part of an ice cream Sunday is the Whipped Cream but I'm going to eat ice cream without it from now on just because other people eat it that way.<br /><br />I get the idea that it's bad for you, but when you think about it, how bad is it really? Being in your 20s is all about having crappy experiences that you learn from and turn into hilarious stories to tell 10 years later when your life has become boring but you've decided to have some sort of reunion and relive the glory days. What will your stories be if you stick to this "no chase" policy?<br /><br />Finally I leave you with this thought: any guy who doesn't need to be chased has some deeply creepy dark secret that's far worse than any of the bullet points you laid out. Just remember every serial killer interview you've ever seen - "he seemed so nice and normal, polite even, he was such a good boyfriend I don't know how I didn't notice all his furniture was people."Chrisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448405887794911142.post-12221063030374462222011-10-02T07:47:06.887-04:002011-10-02T07:47:06.887-04:00Good luck with this, ha!Good luck with this, ha!Ruth Cox aka abitosunshinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12670570644577223420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448405887794911142.post-1920521718619887732011-10-01T22:13:13.417-04:002011-10-01T22:13:13.417-04:00I like this idea...
