have a meaningful relationship

With a boyfriend in the past. I don’t like the guy who the relationship was with, but the relationship itself was a big growing and maturing challenge I took on, and I still have a lot of good memories from it, despite what happened with me and the guy in the end.

He moved in. I’ve never done this before. All my guy friends are telling me this is a bad idea. Is this a new attempt to destroy my happiness.

I found someone. We were introduced by a friend and he’s perfect. It’s been two months and I’m not freaking out like I ussually do. He likes all the carzy things I do. It scares me that I will start to sabatage this relationship. But so far so good.

When I started this list I thought having a meaningful relationship was what I wanted.

I am so happy with who I am that I’m not sure I have time for any type of relationship right now.

I have so many goals to achieve with places to go and people to meet.

Where does a relationship fit in? I don’t believe it does.
I’m moving this goal from the #7 position down to last place.

You may have to do 100 first dates before you find a match that does not take effort to hold together.

Key is volume. You have to enter enemy territory and hunt where they feed. I know I guy who did well with ballet, to cite an extreme.

You have to put on a show. For example, a sports car will jazz up the image of your typical accountant type, learn to cook and develop an artistic sideline. If you are an artist, develop a practical (money generating) sideline.

You have to connect at the animal, practical and mystical levels to get a full lock.

You will love all your exs till the day you die, if you dont, you wernt doing it right.

Along with this goal should be meet someone to have this meaningful relationship with.

Im only 17 myself. But I had a relationship that lasted 7 years and then ended really badly…she died in the tsunami in asia, 2004. The thing that made me feel even worse, was that i was with another girl at the time. I haven’t been able to have a really meaningful relationship since, and its been hard to get back on track. But now i think things are looking up and the girl im with now means so much to me…I can only hope she feels the same as i do. Anywho enough of the emo depressive crap, helloooo to the ppl of 43 Things! I don’t know if anyone else lost a loved one in the tsunami but my heart goes out to those of u who did :(

I love Lucee so damn much.

It doesn’t really seem like men these days really want a meaningful relationship. Maybe it’s because I live in Las Vegas but regardless, that shouldn’t stop me from meeting someone worthwhile! This generation of males society is growing is so focused on superficiality that it’s hard for a nice genuine girl to feel like she can even compete for his affections(not that she’d want to with a guy that was like that) but honestly…I say, men lower your expectations, not even the models really look like that, it’s all retouching!

And women…stop expecting our lives to start ONLY when we finally get attached! Life is NOW!! It’s all we’ve got, so LIVE IT(alone or not)! :-)

My love for you is growing,
every time I am with you,
but with each parting,
my heart is rend in two.

The treasure of this life,
will be to know your heart,
to store our moments together,
for moments when we’re apart.

Let me store each precious jewel,
more often than I do,
filling my treasure room,
with paintings of only you.

I had a very meaningful realtionship which ended very badly. At first I was very bitter and jaded and couldn’t see the meaning in the past 2 years I had “wasted.”

But after moving past the hurt, I realized there was boundless meaning in that time we had spent together. What I learned from that relationship is knowledge I wouldn’t have acquired otherwise. I gained great insight on who I am as a person and what I want from the next meaningful relationship I have. I also made some HUGE mistakes: things I shouldn’t have done, things I wish I would have… And that, too, has made me grow as a person.

So I guess the real point of what I’m saying is find meaning. It’s there, in every experience that we have. Even the ones we view as “pure crap.”

And don’t compromise yourself. Hold out for something that’s worth your time and energy. Because really, life’s too short to waste on something that you know is going to be a bust going into it.

But really, I guess I would just say love with your all and hope for the best. Good luck, and I genuinely hope that all of you find great meaning with a great person! :)
