Agreed. They're more trouble than they're worth, but this might just be my age speaking...

Ooo. I agree. But some people are lucky, they are involved in relationships that are going strong =)

It's more hard work and good choices than good luck.

My father won't tell me about the ten-minute phone conversation he had with Stewart. He says it won't change my opinion of him for the better in any way, and I won't get anything I want out of it. He will still be a lying, manipulative, hypocritical, traitorous pig.

And that's my polite name for him.

You've seen how happy it can make people too though, I hope? It's blood, sweat, and tears but when it's wonderful it's the most amazing thing ever. It just takes some searching to find the right person.

No I haven't really expierienced that really happy good part of a relationship with my own two eyes.
Just in books but even then there's a lot of trouble.

I'd also say it's more hard work although I think Brhite meant something else.

Couldn't agree more.

I'm not really sure how to word this, so forgive me if it's a little less than coherent.

In most relationships, there will be times when you don't really like your partner all that much (because things are rough and conflicts make you feel bad), but that doesn't mean you don't love them. If that makes any sense? I don't mean you should stick with someone if they're treating you badly, but most serious relationships won't be all happy-flowers-and-rainbows all the time. Doesn't mean they aren't worth it, though; if both parties are willing to put in the effort that's required to make it work, it just makes it more fulfilling. =)

There are some couples who are seemingly perfect and never have problems. If all is as it seems, they're definitely the exceptions to the rule, and chances are, things aren't nearly as great as they seem, anyway.

Don't I feel like a douche for reviving this horrid thread...

It seems all I've been doing lately is working and toiling away. I wake up in the mornings sometimes and wonder if it's even worth getting out of bed to go to class and do the things I should do. Of course I answer yes; I want to be a teacher. But does being a teacher make me happy? How I can be a helpful teacher if I can't even help myself with my own problems.

It's really my battle... I have to open up to people... I have to actually let myself have emotion other than happy and content. I have to actually let myself be angry. I have to trust. I have to stop working so much because work is, ironically, my stress relief (which doesn't work very well).

My mind is always distracted on other things: nature, friends, lovers, unrequited love, loneliness, love... It never leaves these things whenever I have the pleasure of free time. I wish it would stop, really, for I no longer want to think about love or any other feeling except for the love of students anyways.

I'm worthless anyways... A teacher... It's not going to change much... At least that's what the negative voice in my head says. I do my best to never listen but it's so hard.

I really wish I never knew love at all...

@Lin: Hiya, Linny! ^_^ ...Don't forget the old hackneyed saying, "'Tis better to have loved and lost, than to never have loved at all". ^_^ Hope you've been doing well... Um... well-ISH. smile And I STILL owe you mail! (BAD aretoo!) xp

eek  

[aretoo]

I will agree that a LOT of people suck. However... there are those of us out there fighting all that garbage... smile  

[aretoo]

What sets me off is RUDE people. It torques my shorts; gets me steamed, and generally just makes me grit my teeth. I really want people to at least acknowledge they're being rude, rather than just being oblivious. scream

All the money I have is going to spay surgery for my rabbits. I needed that moolah to be able to move out, now it's all going to be gone, and every last cent that doesn't go to the surgery goes to my mastercard bill.

I just wanted my bunnies to be able to have babies once before fixing them. It makes me so sad.  

[Trish the Stalker]

Okay, now that I'm not panicking about my bunnies and being sad about their future as infertile creatures, I really feel their scratches on my arms. Holy ******** it hurts.
