Has the magnitude of this depressing reality ever occured to you: that there are a gazillion people out there in the world that you may never meet, even though they might be the coolest people ever? And what if you never meet them, because you think it would be silly and lame to travel all those miles just to meet someone, but really, you were fated to be together and yet, you'll never be together now, because you doubted whether travelling a gazillion miles to meet a stranger would be worth it. And then you're 90 years old with no one, all alone, all because of distance, which sucks. All the relationship possibilities, friendships, etc.--gone forever. 😢
Things That Suck
It would be nice to meet everyone in this planet. Although i dont know if we can remember em all o_O. But anyway, its sad to think that one day everyone that i know is going to die. Everday that i realize i'm going to die. And its sad to think that my parents are going to go senile one day also. But i look at the brighter side to life, so it doesnt bother me much. As long as i dont die tomorrow, then its all good.

You know what pheonix, I've thought of just the same thing. I've met a few people that have reenforced the feeling that there are near perfect guys out there, just what I am looking for. The only problem is, now that I've met a few of those type, how can I be sure that I'll fnd anymore of them. Maybe I just happened upon them by accident or coincidence and they are the only ones like that. Depressing thoughts, actually. If there are 6 billion+ people in the world, only maybe a billion (maybe more, maybe less I don't know) actually speak the same language.. I'm already limited in my number of fish out there by it's english-speaking sea (make any sense?)... my soulmate (if one exists) could be living in Turkey for all I know and there will never be a chance o meet him.... 😢
I'm glad I'm not alone thinking this way...
Both of you bring up good points.
It can be very depressing, when you think about it.

Heather, take the risk! You will never never no, unless you ever ever go!
Truly, I did it. Met my hubby online in August, visited America in December, he drove down from Canada for 40 hrs straight with double pneumonia and we married 48 hrs later!
Don't be afraid to 'break out' of the box society (and ourselves) have created for us....you will never know what adventures you will have unless you try. And there are some pretty wild and exciting adventures out there...do it now before it's too late!

Lawgoddess, WOW, that was an awesome story! Seriously, that inspires me to be so much more hopeful! I will think of that from now on when I start to lose hope 🙂
I met many guys that I met online. You have to be careful...wait until you feel comfortable, and even then meet in a public place. There was only one guy I met who gave me the willies...I should have taken longer with e-mail...
Anyway, I finally met someone really special that way. I am at his place now...dog-sitting for him! He is wonderful! We have been seeing each other for 2 years now! Funny thing is I communicated with all kinds of guys who responded to my ad...from California to Maine...the one I ended up liking the best lives 45 miles from me! LOL! We never would have met though if it hadn't been for the net and placing ads! I answered his! Most of the guys who answered my ad only answered because they liked the way I look. I need someone deeper than that, and I found him!

Don't give up hope!
But, yeah, Phoenix...the reality is none of us will get to meet eveyone on the planet.... 😢

I personally don't think that you gotta meet scores of people in order to find "the one." I do think that we are all destined to have someone to love and give ourselves to, but I don't think that it's a predetermined thing. I believe that love has to grow, the seed is there within two people meaning your personalities bond and connect, but it's not something that is only in one single person you were destined to be with living god knows where. You find someone that has that seed and you let something grow from that, you got to kindle that. And after going through things together and sharing experiences together, that person sort of becomes your "soulmate" or "the one" or whatever you want to call it. He/she becomes the only person you can really give yourself and your love to. These days, people have wrong motives for attraction I find it: which guy has more money, which guy has more talent, which guy is more respectable, which guy is more interesting, which guy is more admirable, which guy is smarter, etc...all this superficial shizznot that won't matter in the end. I know for a fact that there are better girls out there than me, and I know for a fact that there are better guys out there than my boyfriend, but for us no one can ever be better for us. Sometimes you just gotta look at what's in front of you. I for one never imagined that my boyfriend and I would ever end up together. He was just a friend that I never considered an option, and now we're engaged. I was always off chasing guys whose lives I wanted to adopt cuz their lives seemed so interesting and new, and he was always trying to make and manipulate his past relationships into something they weren't. You just might be surprised who you'll end up with.
This is an interesting quote by someone I know I'd like to share: "love is recognition. a magnetic pull of one's inner beast towards a similar kind of beast in the other."

I cant disagree with that.
But it sounds like direct contradiciton to your present situation. What you described sounds more like 'settling' for love. It doesnt describe the quote. Was it because he was right there and you were lonely? Was there any sparks or chemistry, or was it more because he grew on you finally?
What was it you loved about your friend? You never did say.

She is in love with him as well as him. A spark cant always come sometimes, but they do have chemistry, they have something that pulls them together, no matter what the situation is.
Lena,

Luz, what is that thing in the picutre you posted a bunch of times? Is that some kind of killer whale. Or is it a girl?
