Saw this today while stumbling and it made me laugh:

"Relationships aren't real-estate; you don't have to secure a new one before you move out of the old one."

I've never understood how someone can date right after a relationship ends. I somewhat envy that kind of person. They are never alone and always in love. It's hard for me to fall in love. I don't do it easily. I guess it makes since that I would not fall out of love easily, as well... .

Im with you there hangin baby... , its been 6 weeks for me, i could never even contemplate kissing another person let alone being in love... ive only been in love once and i still am!

"What hurt you once will hurt you twice.  This isn't the beginning, but the beginning's end.  You would do well to remember that, but you never do."  Stephen King, the Master of Horror, apparently has some insights into the horrors we've experienced as well!

Don't be afraid of losing someone who doesn't feel lucky to have you.

People always think that the most painful thing in life is losing the one you value.  The truth is, the most painful thing is losing yourself in the process of valuing someone too much and forgetting that you are special too.

If God wants you to be with someone he'll make it happen at the right time and with the right person; don't force it.
