I'm glad that you are going into dating with that
perspective. You're still young and can have a
good time getting to know people until the right
one comes along. I thought you would find my
dating disaster amusing. A friend of mine said
that she has trouble getting a card and I get
diamonds. I told her that I would rather the
card. Even though it's funny now, it was
uncomfortable at the time. : ) xoxo....Hallie

That made me feel like a slime ball. I just
cannot even think about a relationship right now.
My mother is dying and my family needs me and will
need me even more after she is gone. I don't have
the time to invest in a serious romantic
relationship....bad timing! Then again, there is
no good timing to tell someone you don't really
know that you want to marry them. : ) So, that's
my amusing romance story. I sure can pick
'em...lmao. xoxo

Needless to say, I finally did have to have a talk
with him and NO, I'm not going to be getting
engaged on Christmas or any other time to this
guy. I think he must be totally needy or
something....just isn't normal behavior. I hate
to upset people, so I've just let him down slowly
and easily. He actually said that his life was so
terrible that he thought God gave me to him as a
reward.

I was washing dishes and we were talking on the
phone when he told me. I seriously felt like I
might pass out. Had to quick dry my hands and run
outside for air. I am almost NEVER at a loss for
words, but I could not think of a response for the
life of me. I was shocked and feel fortunate that
I didn't stroke out...lol.

OMGosh....I thought he meant a diamond necklace or
something...NOOOOOO....he actually picked out and
put a deposit on an engagement ring after only
knowing me for a few weeks...or maybe only 2
weeks...(more)

After about a week or so, he just couldn't keep
the present (still on layaway...kinda) a secret.
He told me that he felt so badly that my diamond
and my grandmother's diamond were stolen that he
got me a diamond.....

Then, he went shopping to get me something for my
birthday and told me that he didn't see anything
that he thought was the perfect gift, so he got
something else and he was going to give it to me
as a combination Christmas/birthday
gift.....here's where it gets REALLY good...

I went out with him a few times and he has been
over to visit me and has ridden with me to take
the kids places. I enjoyed his company and found
him easy to talk to. Anyway, he ended up telling
me that he loved me after a very short time....red
flag #1.

K, so before mom was as bad as she is now, I met a
guy named Bruce and he seemed normal and had a
great personality. I wasn't totally attracted to
him, but sometimes when you get to know someone,
they become more attractive because of what is on
the inside so......

If you have no way to access your email, I'll just
have to tell you in your shoutbox because it's so
amusing and I just have to tell you. I know
you'll get a kick out of it. Oh...now I think I
might be teasing you...that's mean. I'll just
have to tell you....

Hi Sweetie...I know you'll be fine and I'm glad
that you are doing well with the situation now.
Just remember that rebound relationships are
usually not the kind that last. Sometimes when we
want to "replace" a partner, we tend to overlook
some things that would normally be red flags to
us. How did it go with the guy who gave you his
number? I have a hilarious date story for you,
but I was hoping to email it to ya. xoxo....H

It's important to be able to be independent and to
have the ability to provide for yourself. He
shouldn't want to hold you back from the
experience of uni or from your desire to further
your education. Glad you are doing ok with it.
Love ya...H

I'm sorry to hear that things turned out that way
for the two of you, but you are right to be upset
and he should not make you feel badly for
furthering your education. When we truly love
someone, we want what is best for them...not what
is the most convenient for ourselves.

How's your head today? : ) Make sure that you
get lots of hydration. That helps. Are you able
to send email yet? It's hard to keep up in the
shoutboxes. Talk to you soon. xoxo Hallie

Never settle. Far too many people do that.
Still, there's a chance that Craig will come
around, but you are off at college and that is
young to be tied to someone if you aren't happy
and want to meet other people who could make you
more happy.

Good morning...I meant be careful that you didn't
fall or something. You sounded pretty drunk in
your posts. It wasn't obnoxious though....just
looked like you were having a good time. When did
Craig become less affectionate? You're right, you
do deserve someone who can give you the things you
are looking for in a relationship.

Thanks for your message sweetie. I love you too
and truly value your friendship. What happened
with Craig? I sense that you may be a tad buzzed
and I'm not sure if you are truly ending that
relationship or if you are just angry. Please let
me know how you are doing tomorrow. I worry about
you when you aren't yourself. : ) xoxo Hallie

sometime. I know some great gay bars.

Oh...the first part of my response was a joke. It
was too tempting not to joke around a bit. Even
though we haven't been in touch as much as before,
I hope you know and always remember that I will
always be there for you and that I consider you to
be a very close and dear friend. xoxoxo Hallie

Hi Sweetie....do you have email yet? I just left
your debate. I hope you don't mind the personal
edge to it. I just adore you...you know that, and
while you and I are not always on the same page
politically, I always respect your opinion and the
fact that you always respect me.
