Lonely Libra

Sounds pretty pathetic doesn't it! But I have never felt like this before in my life, and it is starting to make me really blue! I am usually very social and like to have fun, for some reason my life is empty! I don't like to do the bar scene and I am sick of hanging out at home. I don't date the people I work with(to much gossip)! Anybody have any good ideas for me? I would just like some companionship not a relationship!

KennyG,

Are you the trumpet playing KennyG—? That would be incredible!

To answer your post,
I am not worried! I gave that up along time ago. Whatever happens, happens! Yes, you are right about the bad times being more creative. I think when you're in love things are more creative, for me. But lately, I just don't want to be around myself. I am sick of everything I do. Everything sucks!!! I did build beautiful Koi pond and that has been wonderful. Other than that, I haven't done much! It would be nice to have someone to share life with. I don't want to whine, but it has been along time!!! It is so damn hot here and everything is dying and we have had a serve drought. The last three days we have had violent thunderstorms and tonight I thought a tornado was coming through! The whole house was shaking!! We really could use the rain. Now I am getting off topic. Ok, I am gonna go sit in the bathtub and get drunk! Have a good one! I would love to be on a ranch. Animals are my lifes blood!!!!

To Lonely libra,

You're not alone! I think you are smart for NOT dating those you work with--you're right, there WILL be gossiping if you do. And women aren't the only ones that gossip.

Being alone for a good amount of time will allow you to look introspectively and learn more about who you really are. Sometimes it can take a lifetime to find out who we are and what we want from life. There's nothing wrong with this.

If you feel the need to be social--and why not, you're a Libra right? Join a club or take a class in something that interest you--anything. These are the best ways to meet people. Or go play a sport that will put you in a social spot like a tennis court or my favorite--a hockey rink. Like you said, don't go to a bar. It never works.

Good mornin from Dixie!

Thanks to everybody for their usual good advice! Today is another day and I made it through the night and the sun is shining and the birds are out here singing and life is ok! I am thankful!

I think I got that wrong about KennyG playing the trumpet! What did he play? I can hear his music in my head, but I can't figure out the instrument?

I'm not Lonely! I just keep going off in the wrong direction! I have Jesus Christ in my life and I am never alone! And I will never abandon him either!
you know who!

I think Kenny G played the clarinet--it was Chuck Mangione that played the trumpet.

Hi! KennyG,

I had no idea I was talking to another women! I had the image of the artsy guy with the long hair and the instrument!!!HAH! I really had that image in my head. When I woke this morning, I could hear that famous sound he is known for! It actually put me in a really mellow mood and I have stayed that way all day! Not a bit of nervous energy or negative thoughts! Very soothing for me, so thank you for the mental imagery! Anyway, you sound like you have a wonderful life! The ranch and the desert and the sky and your Scorpio! What else more could you need?? I truly hope your right about the fall; I am gonna stay hopeful and positive!!! I wish for nothing more! I would be satisfied for life!

Thanks for all the kind words and we'll have to talk again (especially in the Fall)!

Take care and lots much happiness!
Sincerely,
Libra chic

Sorry for the mistakes! I'm always worried I am gonna lose my connection and have to start over again! So I just throw it out there and hope it makes some sense!

Kenny,

What does "tempest in a teapot" mean?

Hi! Folks,

Lonely Libra here again! I need as much help as possible tonight. Here is why:
My dad who I love more than life is going into the hospital again for surgey in the morin, due to complications from diabetis. I need some loving and healing vibes sent out or some prayers. He is really down and is tired of being cut on month after month. It seems like he never gets to rest and as soon as he pulls it together, he has another set back! I am really scared for him, and I think he is getting tired! I cannot lose him, not now!!! I could not make it with out him. He is my best friend, and confidant! I will be there for him tomorrow and make sure he sees me when he goes in to surgery and when he comes out! Please, all the postive thoughts would be very much appreciated!!!!!!!

Thanks a million!
Libra chic

One more thing, does anyone have any suggestion for me as far as helping him cope mentally, or is something I can do to reassure him and make him calm down—

Thanks again,
LC

LC,

He CAN make it--he will pull through from this. I know that diabetes is very rough but he must think positively. He must put himself in the mind-set that after all this time so far, he HAS been successful. He must think of what he has accomplished. He can take the next surgery because he's strong. He's been through it and he will progress.

Have faith that this will work out for him and you. Today's medicine and surgical procedures have been so enhanced and improved upon--doctors are practically performing miracles. And they will take good care of him.

I know what your going through LC. I lost my father to lung cancer last year. He smoked for 46 years and it caught up with him. Although diabetes is a condition that can be conquered. Just beleive that your Dad will come out a winner.

Sloane,

Thanks for your generous support!!

Well, so far so good! He has had this disease for 37 years and has lost plenty of toes and half his foot to gangrene and has been split open like a frog for vasular transplants etc...He is out of surgery and is ok! Thank the Lord!

He was scared, but would never say it. I could see it in his eyes. They never lie! I had him laughing his a** off before they put him to sleep! I told him stories about my younger days and a few secrets no one else knows but me and God, and he smiled and nodded off. When he woke up he was still high and had the staff laughing. I would have loved to have been one of my pops drinkin buddies in his younger days! He is such a kick!!!

I just dropped my sister home and I am goin back over to see him! He might get to come home. My mom has been up since 4 am and she is over there waiting on him to come home. They have been married 45 years and I don't know what one would do without the other!!!

Love,
LC

Hey! Linda,

Are you me—?HAH! We seem to share alot of similarities, you poor thing!!!

Good news, I went all the way back over to the hospital, which is only about 5 miles away, and he had already been discharged!!! They put three stints in a major artery in his stomach and he will have to go back some other time for the leg. When I got back, he had already sent me an e-mail, bless his heart!!!! As long as he can still get to his computer, then I know he's fine!! He is obsessed with the damn things! Got me into too!

Thank you and Sloane both for your very kind and generous support. It was very reassuring!

Love,
LC

LC,

I am a nurse who works on a vascular surgical floor...I am familiar with those who suffer from diabetes and its complications! Glad to hear that your Dad is OK. He sounds like my favorite kind of patient...one I can joke a bit with...

It might not be something you want to try to meet friends...but, I and some of my friends put personal ads online...and so far, things are great! Although, it took a lot of time and I met many men before I met some I really wanted to hang out with.

If you do this...e-mail for quite awhile before meeting...keep in mind that you don't have to meet everyone...meet always in a public place...USE your intuition!...never say that you are not interested in person, leave it open, then e-mail when you are safe at home saying that it just didn't seem right or however you want to say it...make a list of what you desire (qualities)...think positively! Even if you don't pursue this method...think positively!

I have been seeing the same guy for a year and a half now. We became friends quickly and yes...it did progress! (mutual decision). I answered his ad online! He was looking for female friends. That is another thing...I always say I am looking for a friend...if you say intimacy, some men think you mean as soon as you meet them! LOL!

Be careful and be safe!

Hi!! Star,

First let me say thanks to all of ya'll who have responded to this thread. I am touched by the amount of support given here. It really has affected me and I am truly appreciative of your kindness!!!

Well, let me tell you Star, My Dad! What can I say!? The nurses love him, and the doctors are afraid of him (only some, the one's that think they are God.) Those guys get to know my dad's temper real fast!!! You know what I mean, I'm sure! I was floored by all the RN's, doctors and other medical professionals I have met lately!!! One thing I found when talking to any of them, is their love of the job and there unending dedication. The hospital was packed like 'motor vehicles on a Monday' and they still had such great attitudes. So, I respect what you have to do everyday for living!!!

Ah, the dating tips were nicetoo! Thank you. However, I am too damn chicken to do that. I have come to the FINAL conclusion, that 'Mr. Right' is gonna have to find me!LOL I am no longer going to search for him. I have tried that before, and I only ruin things!! I still hold out hope for a Miracle.
Do you hear that Lord?, I have been a really good girl, so hurry up!LOL

But thanks for the suggestions. Ya never can have to much help in this area!

Lonely Libra

Hey! Linda,

That was nice! You're terrific!!!

Massage and pedicure sounds really good. I'll get one if you get one too,ok! Come on let's go now!

Thanks for your friendship, gotta run!
Love,
LC

Lonely Libra,

From what you said, your Dad is exactly my favorite kind of patient!
In fact, I once jokingly told my charge nurse "Give me a dozen slightly ornery male patients, but, don't give me ONE hypochondriac, feel-sorry-for-me female patient!" I suppose that sounds rude and/or stereotypical...but, it is too often true....maybe it is a hormonal difference??

I like that...yeah, let the guy come to you!! Who knows maybe my guy and I would have met somewhere along the line...but, I just don't have that kind of patience! I am a shaker and a mover when it comes to some things!

Take Care!
Star

Hi my Friends,

I just wanted to get back in touch.

Today was a great day! It was very simple and nothing spectacular, but it just felt good.

I went to lunch with my younger sister who is a Lib (October 9) and had lunch in a very nice restaurant, something we don't do very often. Sometimes it is nice after a long and tough week to just take a ride in the country or stop and enjoy ones self! I love my sister very much! I think I have told you about her and how far she has come. I am so damn happy for her!!!!

Life is good, no life is awesome, and we DO appreciate the small things.

Thank you Lord!@
Not so Lonely Libra

Lonely Libra,
You mentioned your sister before but not what she was going through--I'm curious to know. (my birthday's the 8th) Maybe your sister and I have some things in common? Also is your sister younger or older than you?

Hi Lonely Libra,

I feel like a fool writing because you have had some much good feedback already. I just wanted to say hang in there this is a real rough year for many signs and this goes to everyone out there. Soon things will get better for all if they are experiencing depression or loneliness or unemployedness. I do not know the cause of your loneliness because I have only read minimal but keep your head up the New Year will bring you more happiness, atleast I am optimistic to think so. I am Lonely to at times and I have friends that I talk to and spend time with and ther are times I just do not feel social at all. There is a website out there I would reccomend to you do not know if you already have been to it but there is alot of information on the Libra sign it also provides monthly outlooks for all signs.
I have been to many sites and mot to many appear to have much info other than Horoscopes and stuff. Good luck on your fathers Surgery, I wish him all the best. Oh by the way I am the guy who posted how Libra women are so beautiful inside, I have been dating one and just can not get over how caring she is almost as if she is an Angel. Anyway here are thos sites I was talking about. Take care and be patient, you will find the right person soon to help you with your loneliness.

Pisces male.

Yes, we are caring. The reasons librans tend to get lonely is because they are the sign of partnership. They love partnership in all its forms, be it business, friendship and of course, romance.

Thank you piscies male, i think librans are beautiful on the inside too. We are nonchalent (spelling?!), caring, kind and in control when we want to be. People sometimes take us for weak but we arent. Underneath our velvet glove is an iron fist. If you've ever come up against the libran stubborness you'd be surprised, we make taureans look like a walk in the park.

Take care,
libran girl.

Hi Everybody!

Just wanted to stay in touch and I'm still very lonely, but I try to stay busy and I'm ok. I haven't heard much from my friends lately either. I hope they are all ok!

Love,
Libra chic

I am fine! I have my stuffed animals and I am happy!

I am sick but I'm healthy! I dont care; I like to sleep with stuffed animals, and I like to have them with me all the time! Does this make me a sicko— I dont bother anyone and it is very comforting!!! It makes me happy and I feel at peace and very safe! What is wrong with it—
