It's funny because obviously no checklist is ever complete, especially for something as mysterious as romance, but this list provides some excellent and thoughtful guidelines.Michelle Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12026436911422978815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6384782695584867387.post-54586960958297382872011-03-28T13:26:19.715-07:002011-03-28T13:26:19.715-07:00This is very insightful as are the comments! For ...This is very insightful as are the comments! For me, finding my mate, was such a non-intellectual experience (and I'm not talking about the physical realm at all). I just "knew" but on such an intuitive basis. It was like we had "known" each other for years, but we had just met. Our future was there before us as if it had already been written. There was no doubt when I found my soul mate. Hope you have some of that "gut knowing" too!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01152113252151200355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6384782695584867387.post-27367074424874212632011-03-28T13:24:18.425-07:002011-03-28T13:24:18.425-07:00Thanks, Everybody!

Unless your first romantic match is PERFECT, people probably go forward at some point with their hurt hearts and try to figure out how to approach moving forward in a conscious way.<br /><br />Going through writing the thoughts down did help by giving me a window into what is going on in myself!<br /><br />And I appreciate the additional tips and support.<br /><br />I'm not sure if it was really helpful to put it out in public, like I did (we'll see…), but it was a way to express things I might not have been able to otherwise.<br /><br />Seems too intense to say directly, yet I don't know how to move except from where my mind is right now. I thought about taking this post down—perhaps it is too much. And it really is just me working with myself!<br /><br />Yet, I also don't want to fall into a pleasant love, only to experience another layer of hell in the near future. And I don't want to cut myself off from the pulse of vibrant connected life either!<br /><br />It's been much easier to have crushes on people who live far away, or gay men—easier because these are not people I can reasonably date. It keeps me at a distance, and I'm tired of my own B.S. I'd like to try to realistically move forward, and to do that I have to discover what that means for me.<br /><br />Thanks to any kind souls who read to this point.<br /><br />Be well.Brooks Hallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05789430862542763946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6384782695584867387.post-75597014980591059772011-03-28T06:50:05.539-07:002011-03-28T06:50:05.539-07:00Do we laugh together as well as enjoy quiet togeth...Do we laugh together as well as enjoy quiet together?<br /><br />Those are my big ones.<br /><br />xoxoxoxo<br />Lot of loveMeredith LeBlanchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10825941786587081100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6384782695584867387.post-18802340727028784062011-03-28T06:16:21.010-07:002011-03-28T06:16:21.010-07:00Oooh, nice checklist.
