Ok... I don't really know what to think now.... now I scared the sh*t out of myself... I don't let myself get attached to another person in any way shape or form... even my last boyfriend of 2 years I wasn't attached to... but now there is something different about this one guy... and it scares me... and I am thinking about running and not looking back, but a part of me doesn't want to run... and I always run... Ut Oh..

<sigh>

Our little girl is growing up dear. :wink:

Darlin' let's put this in some kind of perspective....

You are not even 20 yet, you haven't LIVED long enough to have a history of running away.

Of course you weren't attached that strongly to other guys, you were just a teenager.

Guaranteed in 20 years you will look back on the guys you know now and you'll think, "wow I can't believe I thought that was a relationship"

If you were with one guy for 2 years, you were only 17 or 18 when you met him. Even if you were seeing other people at that time, before him you were of barely driving age.

Even if you started "dating" guys when you were 12, you know as well as the next person a 12, 13, 14 or 15 year old is really just a kid.

You ARE growing up. Of COURSE this one feels different, you're no longer a little kid.

Give yourself a break CL, you've got your whole life ahead of you.

GET involved with this guy, let it become a MATURE relationship between adults, not two teenagers who have little experience.

It's TIME to get involved, you're not marrying the guy, but it is human nature to pair off.

DO it honey, and have fun.

Not quite true, had nothing to do with age, suprisingly I am rather mature for my age and he was mature in some aspects too... We were attached to each other very strongly at one point.... but we both just happened to have fallen apart... nothing to do with age at all, just knew it wasn't meant to be...

As possible as that is, it was still 2 years of my life that I spent with him, though that may not be that long, I will still see it as a relationship...

This one doesn't feel different persay... it feels like the very first one... except obviously different...

This may be true, but my goal is to be engaged by the time I am 23... have a child around 25... etc.... I have my whole life ahead of me, yes, but can we truely say how long that is??

My longest relationship was 4 years, from when I was 14 until 18, then when that ended the next was for 2 years... I have made many mistakes but I have no regrets... and this one I am not f*cking up..

I'm not saying you're immature, don't take it that way, you know I care.
You are exactly where you need to be right now.

That right, no one knows how long we've got, so don't waste it by running away!

Oh, and the be engaged by 23, baby by 25?

Don't put all your eggs in that basket....a women needs not only plan B, but plans C & D as well.

I know, I know, you're probably thinking I don't know what I'm talking about. That's OK, you will.

Ask the other ladies who in the "been there, done that" club!

I don't doubt that you are correct.... I have many plans, all the way down to plan Z... but my main goal in life is to have a family. I am a hopeless romantic and I will be sooo mad at myself if I don't have a child before I die...

But that doesn't matter, I can't predict the future...

I am just taking it one day at a time

Sorry you've got the creeping cruds. With rest and care,you should be well by date-time. Don't listen
to those who advise you to be overly-cautious in this romance/relationship. Your feelings for this guy are a good indication that it will last. Think
positively.
Bless you and your man,

Ha! ..."creeping cruds".... Are you a Brit? If not, you should be.....

That's just what my Nan used to say, and I haven't heard that in years!

Hi,Ellpus; Thanks for the compliment,but no, I'm American,
born and raised. I am a bit of an Anglophile,though. Some of your comedies are great,many of your murder mysteries,and other programs are far better than a lot of what's available here Exclamation

"The creeping crud" must be a universal expression. I've always heard it.
There are other American expressions such as:{1} creeping crapola
{2}having the barfy-poopys {3} having a pain in one's epizootis.
I'm not sure where one's epizootis is located, but it can be painful.
Very Happy

P.S.: Did you and the butler ever take the scout back home? You've left us hanging !

your epizootis is right next to your guzinta.

excuse me, I think I'm going to have barfy-poops.

Thanks,Chai,I'd misplaced mine for a while. I looked,and there it was. Right under my goozle!!!

You know, I really like this new avatar.

I feel so much more gentile.

I once knew a lady from chichester (sounds like a limerick)

When we first met, she was 92. We became close.
She married a gentleman named Emile, and spent much of their time in Monte Carlo.
"Oh my dear, Emile always DRENCHED me in jewels"

At first I thought this was wishful thinking, until the photo albums came out.

4'11'' and 87 pounds of pure glamour and sophistication.

Posing for the camera holding her skis, somewhere in the Alps, hip jauntily thrust out.

Portrait of her wearing Chanel and Harry Winston.

Oh, and the stories she told!

Absolutely nothing got by her.....

When I was in my first brief marriage, my current husband showed up, and the rest, as they say, was history.

Shortly after that, I visited Uries, she took one look at me and in this fabulous grand dame accent said...."You're having an affair, aren't you"?

I sputtered, "Urie! I'm a married woman"!

Her response, and only Lord E could do it justice here.......

"hmmm, yes"

this avatar reminds me of her.
I really loved her.

C.L.; I can't speak for Chai,but I've always had an off-beat sense of humor {to put it politely}. I've always enjoyed plays-on-words and things like that.

Cool
