I am uncertain what the future holds with my relationship stuff. I e definitely come up wounded. Every women has an inner child that wants to be treated like a princess at one time or another I am sure
So true
Everyone has bad experiences. Learn what you can from them. "Put lotion on the scars" -- reconnect with friends. whatever. heal.
Try again. With a good attitude, you'll have a good (new) experience.
I agree
Neither. I don't let bad experiences hold me back but I accept the reality of this world. And while I would like a relationship I'm not going to commit 100% of my being to a woman who doesn't want to do likewise. If that's the case I'd rather just be alone. 🙂👍
I understand
I guess a hopeless romantic though I've had to overcome and grow from past bad experiences. But at the end of the day I'm not gonna stop believing in love especially when I'm constantly surrounded by it.
Good
Mhmm.
I'm not a hopeless romantic but I also don't let my bad experiences stop me lol I see the world, what I would call, realistically... people come and go
I understand
I have always been a hopeless romantic and always will be.
I don't fall very easily anymore. I got banned from tinder so now I can hardly land a date. That was shortly after I took about a 3 month break to collect my thoughts and get back in the saddle, so now I'm not sure what to do.
Damg i see
Romance is not something i find important. I just think it is a waste of time, and to much effort for something i don't think is important
Lol did that mind change yet
I know right 🤣 like how i say this like 7hrs ago🤣
Haha im glad you were proved wrong. The Lord said lemme gone and show her thee way
Haha🤣probably true
I'm a romantic. Only thing past experiences have taught me is what I WILL NOT tolerate
You’re right about that
Damn it, I just wrote an elaborate reply for half an hour or so, and it's lost because after posting it, I had to log in first. It's gone and the time wasted.
Omg i hate when GAG does that
The short answer is that I am happy in a longterm relationship. I wasn't writing about hopeless romantics in the sense that you mean anyway. It was about a somewhat different meaning and how I evolved away from it. Now I think I'm not half as romantic as I used to be, yet my romantic relationship is very deep and fulfilling.
As long as you're happy :)
I have given up.. so I will be like my dad and just end up with who I end up lol
Nahh dont do that. Never settle
I'm not a hopeless romantic, but I also don't let yesterday kill tomorrow. The next girl is not responsible for any bad experiences I've had in the past.
I agree
I’m married to my high school sweetheart. We know each others wants and needs well and make it happen
Hopeless romantic here 🙋🏾♀️
Saaame
Lived experience has converted me from a hopeless romantic into an atheist.
How does not believing in love also take away believing in God 💀
I meant a romantic atheist in not believing in romance. Maybe a-romantic? That sounds like a smelling fetish. New word def needed.
😂😂😂
I'm both if that's possible. I think love is possible but sometimes those past things hold me back from truly going out of my comfort zone
I understand girly
I hope to be a hopeless romantic. But as I’m aging my window of falling in love is getting smaller.
I haven’t been in that many relationships. If I was lucky enough to be in many relationships for example I wouldn’t let one girl who cheated on me effect my relationship with another girl.
Oh wow I wasn't aware of this. A lot has happened over the years i see
There’s a lot that I haven’t done so maybe someday I’ll tell you in private cause it’s just sad
Okay I’m here for you
Yes that's a very great possibility. To be in love and experience hopeless romantic feelings. A great blessing to remain positive.
True
I was a hopeless romantic who got beat into giving up on love.
Awww no
