Been thinking about Father's Day
Dawning:
C'est la vie. Live and learn. One good thing about this is that my freespirit has returned but in a different form.
And I like your post, CG - it was WONDERFUL - thanks so much for your sincerity, Woman of the Earth.
... I think he may have pegged me early on and I didn't see it because I wondered how someone his age could be attracted to me. But now he isn't. Because of my teenage insecurities which got me into this situation in the first place. Seriously. How I ended up with these insecurities intact so far into life seems odd to me and probably to 20-something guys but it is me and I am not going to pretend. Now that I am getting rid of those and my attachment to a messed up father, I wonder if there is still a chance that I can meet a nice man somewhere who will treat me well and also if it is too late - now knowing what I know.
One last thing: as I was drying my hair this morning, I thought about the posts Spirit has written in this thread and - Spirit - I just want to say that I am glad there are men like you in the world. :) Makes me feel good knowing that.
Spirit:
Two days have gone since I posted on this thread. I have had time to reflect more on it and I do realise that I was a bit selfish here in the sense that I hijacked the thread away from what Dawning created it for because I put my own concerns ahead there.
I do realise that it is not always about me, and there are different kind of men and I didin't have to go on the defensive. Threfore I will apologise to you Dawning because I do realise that I was being unsymathetic and didn't show any empathy to you or your feelings but let my own thought/concern/issues drift it away.
Nassim and Bunny,
I do understand you are talking the practicalities whereas I was talking in a more general sense ( placing humanity before humans etc ) Plus when I read it back now some part of my post could be sen as offending especially the part about 'because of my cultural background.. etc ' I think my delivery was poor there and I hope no one is offended. Having said that I still am still sticking with my views but will certainly pay attention to others view aswell and do realise that I am still learning.
thanks everyone

Thanks very much for those kind words Dawning. Now I wonder if I have played the moral high a bit too far.
I think there are certain benefits of childrens of N and neglecting parents because these children are so keep on pleasing others.. and I wonder if this is a main reason for my good behaviour with women.

Nice to hear Bunny.
Anyway I felt I needed to own responsibility for not being empathetic and talking off my head in the thread that was created for another reason. I feel a lot easier and happier now that it is off my chest.
Spirit'ed as ever !
