Moolah!

I misread the original message and thought you were 27 also.

 So now at 43, with a badly disfigured body as you described it, and all the hurt and baggage about men... what to do, what to do...

Sad to hear that, melancollie.

  I can only say this.... a broken heart is painful, there's no denying there but think of it this way. It will make you a stronger and better person in the end so don't give up hope. It's not meant to be and there will be another gentleman who will mend that heart of yours.

  Though I did not suffer from the broken heart syndrome, I think my pride was more wounded. What I thought was love wasn't really. It was just a silly crush (I blame my youth - who doesn't) and what I learnt from the experience was that I could move on. The world isn't cruel, the sky is still there, the flowers are still beautiful.... so no use crying over something that isn't meant to be.

Hey Lise, your crush wasn't that guy who took you on a date to mcdonalds, now that was a funny story....

  Anyway I've never really suffered from a 'broken heart' more of a lonely heart to the point that I think I can never be loved. Really sad and pathetic, I know.

Lise

SD - no,  he wasn't. He was a bit of a crush to me at first but I soon learnt that there's nothing substantial to this man after getting to know him. It wasn't just the cheapskate act, it was the fact that he's got no clue how to carry a conversation or how to impress a girl. Imagine a night with this fellow and all he talks about was 'how great Spain was.... how great Barcelona was when it hosted the Olympics..... how many ppl are in Spain compared to Australia.... blah blah blah.'

  The guy I had a crush on wasn't interested in me. OH THE HUMANITY. Who the hell wouldn't be interested in Lise for crying out loud? *heheh* Then again, I'm a lot more confident these days. It wouldn't be the same shy Lise when she first met him.

  Broken hearts can still be mend. If anything, it'll make you stronger and more experience. You'll know what to expect in the next relationship.

Ah, Lise, thanks for your kind, kind words. This ordeal WILL make me a stronger, better person in the end. But quite frankly, I thought I had gotten enough strength and better personage from that first marriage and suffering through several years of being seriously ill, rearing  4 children, graduating from college, finding a job and trying my best to be a good wife. (I'ma thinking I've racked up some pretty decent karma points, if nothing else).

I guess I will just have to go through "the process" again... which is harder this time, because I still believe in my marriage. I still love my husband, and I wish he was willing to work at improvement our marriage. The only reason, at this point, why it is "not meant to be..." is because hubby is unwilling to try. Oh, well.

Perhaps I could have a tawdry affair with someone... wonder if Angelina is done with Brad, hehehe.

Oh, dear! A McDonalds date? tsk-tsk...sorry you had to endure that, Lise, hehehe. I decided I wanted a divorce from husband number one after he promised a special birthday dinner in Hawaii-- and took me to a McDonalds...in a mall. ick!

Must make a note to remind my boys that McDonald's is probably not a suitable date unless your intended as specifically requested it (ala Carrie on SATC)

An old friend of mine (now no longer with us) met this cool girl, and for their first date took her to a bar. Which needn't have been too bad except that after telling him what she wanted to drink, and going to the washroom, she came back to find the waiter taking the drinks away. She'd been gone 5 minutes. Seems my friend got into a fight in the interim. When she asked what happened, he pointed to a guy and said, "That F***** A* over there..."... and the fight was on again So the cops come and throw my friend in jail, which was fine, since the whole thing was undoubtedly his fault. Naturally, after he got out of jail, they moved in together.

    She had more bad date stories. A guy takes her to the track (great horse-player he), but doesn't really know how to bet. He goes and gets himself a sandwich, & asks her if she wants a bite!

  She goes on a double, a Sunday afternoon, what could go wrong? Her date, and the other guy's date drift off somewhere, and eventually this guy comes on to her. She's like, what're you talkin' about, my date's right here.....somewhere...." The guy says, "come & take a look." The other two are getting it on. She totally freaks out (she's a bit of an innocent, but this is too freaky for anybody, especially without prior notice. So she flips out, and the other three are trying to calm her down. Her impression at this point was that they seemed to think she was spoiling their day.

 She had a pile of stories, like the one where she ends up in jail (no fault of her own, she was a true innocent), but I would get tired from typing them all out. My friend was not pleased that we got into all these bad date stories, maybe because it was his behaviour that inspired the topic. He was a nice guy, but a little crazy .

Somehow I lost sight of the fact that this is a broken heart thread, and not a bad date thread. Sorry about that meloncollie. But it sounds like you're gonna recover. Sometimes I think the institution of marriage is itself the stressor that can fracture a faltering relationship. Maybe next time steer clear of the institution and hold out for the  best relationship? Hell, what do I know? But this got me to wondering:

  Perhaps I could have a tawdry affair with someone... wonder if Angelina is done with Brad, hehehe.


Which one are you looking to pick up on the rebound?

only time heals.

  the worst part of it the self doubt and second guessing.

ah, weird...i never once considered that you were "hijacking" my thread, hehehe. your stories about your friend took the thread in a more interesting direction-- far from my whining. though, i hate to be amused by someone's dating misfortune...hehehe...er, um...hmmmm.

as to whether or it would be angie or brad...i could go either way. threesome, anyone? hehehe. er, but that would only work if *I* could be the center of attention!
