hi there cat...this is marie...

i agree with you a 100% here:
" If spending time with a man, is ALWAYS meaningful, as it is with most women, then we have to make sure that we have a clear understanding of how far the relationship can go, where to draw a line and if a commitment is ever possible BEFORE going to a deeper level of feeling."


some men ( i said some ) assume we can read their thoughts and actions clearly and that we understand very well where they are coming from...

most women, like us, just want to be very sure of the feelings involved if ever a relationship is being offered. Some men offer "special friendships" (read as without strings attached ), some have the option for something more permanent but doesnt really offer it on the onset...and some ( i think this is the kind of MEN most women prefer ) make it clear if they are also in search of serious and permanent relationships..and are willing to go that extra mile to find out if there is that "spark" as we call it.

lest i be misunderstood, it doesnt follow that if a man or woman is ready to commit, that the two of them will click right away. There is still the getting-to-know-the-REAL-you part...but at least,you both know that you are on the same page so to speak.

very nice thoughts from you, cat... i just added some of my own.... thanks

    Yes, Marie..Life goes on, indeed...Even if we already have a good closure of the past...Revisiting it sometimes, is just spontaneous. For they say, without the past, we wouldn't have the present, and at times, we have to be thankful that the past failed, because it only gave way to a better love and most of all, a better life.
it always is good to look at the good memories of a nice friendship. so that if ever you come across this person at another point in your life, it would be easy to communicate again..

a good relationship, no matter what age, color, culture, preferences in life is involved..will have a great beginning and will stand a great chance in succeeding, if the intention is to really get to know someone and sincerely share your heart and soul with him/her...meaning, no games involved, no lies, no pretensions, no role playing...right Dee?

You can never be wrong with all these Marie...I'm sure, CAT will be delighted to know that she is not the only one who feels and thinks this way. It only shows how our experiences in life have taught us to be strong and to gain a lot of wisdom...And for this reason, we are here exchanging posts and sharing important and valuables lessons we learned in this life..Thanks Marie...

And so far, I've been with honest friends and "special friends" lately...most of them tell me the truth, even though sometimes they hurt...but truth will always set me free...

Yes, Marie, and if you may add, "NO DRAMA"...I know that sometimes, our beloved will eventually tell us something that will hurt us, but if that is part of being honest, then by all means, let the truth hurt...It's better than to live in lies and pretensions..I rest my case...

[ti]It is my ardent wish that MEN or WOMEN who are still in communication with their EX's, that they should be very sensitive to their feelings specially if they found someone new...Sometimes, no matter how they've moved on, there are still some feelings left and it does "hurt" to know that they've been replaced. Whether it is the ego that is hurt or the heart, it doesn't matter, it still hurts...

ROXYBARBIE<<<Roxy, you know the story of my life, as I've spoken to you on the phone about it last year. Even though I have no regrets that I've met that special friend, I also have no regret that it is now over for more than 3 months. I know that we're not meant for each other...Our friendship was one of a kind, but wasn't meant to be more than what it was. Thank you..I know that you only want the best for me, and you'll always wish me well...

Yeah, Roxy, I cannot stand people who cannot make up their minds, and who aren't sure of what they feel and have no words of honor...It's better to be alone...I also feel "bad" about men who pretend to be so " loving " and "showy" only to double cross in the end...I'd rather be joyfully single, my dear...And that's the way I am at this point...

Yes, Cat..Commitment is something most women are looking for, and you count me as one of those..And that is why, if I know that a man is not willing to give me that commitment (not necessarily to marry me), then, I think the relationship has no future...Well, that's just me...I don't play games, and I don't want to be in a limbo either, and that's exactly what happened to me last year...So, I made the first move to put an end to that "special friendship" that I had...At least, we are still civilized with each other these days...It was painful at first, but hey, life goes on...

I respect and honor marriage, and it has been my childhood dream to have a lifetime union with someone who shares the same dreams and cruising the same roads that we need to travel in this lifetime, no matter how shaky, rocky, and dusty the roads maybe, when two people who are in love will walk the walks in life, everything will be bearable and tolerable.
