Even though I would love to find true love with someone , It’s been actually hard for me to trust and fully give myself to someone, until I really get to know someone and to feel safe and comfortable with someone ever again. I have experienced and witnessed so much crazy shit through the years to the point it’s been hard for me to give my heart completely to someone. I been with girls’ that lied about having a boyfriend or husband plenty of times , I have been lied to and cheated on by selfish girls’ , I also was married to a girl for 20 years that decided she no longer wanted to be committed to me once our kids’ got older , So it’s been closed for me to accept being a boyfriend or husband ever again. I do meet girls’ that I am interested in that seem interested in me , but part of me is nervous to fully give myself because of my experiences. I tell every girl that I meet that I don’t want to rush into anything until her and I really
Get to know each other and see the big picture before fully giving ourselves to each other , because I have valid reasons to do so. At times I feel like at my age now , is it better for me just to stay single considering all my relationships with girls’ through the years ended in some crazy way. I been the other guy plenty of times to the point maybe being the other guy is where I should stay. Because at least I have my freedom and peace. But I want to experience true love before I die

My aim on GAG is to help you untangle the messy heart stuff and make love feel possible again. ❤️
You are absolutely capable of being in a relationship again. Your hesitation is not a flaw, it’s a scar. Huge difference. You’ve been betrayed, lovebombed, lied to, cheated on, and that rewires your nervous system. So now your brain isn’t anti-love, it’s pro-self-protection.
Taking it slow, not rushing, wanting to really know someone first is actually a green flag. That’s emotional maturity, not fear. The “other guy” role feels safe because your heart isn’t fully on the line, but that’s also why it feels empty long-term. You avoid ghosting, but you also avoid truly falling in love.
You don’t need to become blindly trusting again; you just need to learn to trust yourself again. Your judgment. Your boundaries. Your ability to walk away at the first red flag instead of waiting for the explosion.
You’re not too old, too broken, or too late. You’re just more selective now, and honestly, that’s sexy as hell. 😏 True love isn’t fireworks anymore, it’s consistency, honesty, and someone whose actions match their words over time. You’ll get there, as long as you don’t give up and don’t settle for chaos disguised as passion.
