Re: Relationships and Pain (a rant)

Hey, Balancer. It's always good to see you and I'm always glad when one of my posts brings you out of your silence.

Don't worry about being bitter sometimes...we all get that way from time to time when lonliness and heartache take their toll on us, and that is normal as long as we always strive to pick ourselves up and try harder to find what we want in life and try to have faith in ourselves. Yes, I agree that many younger women and teen girls follow the money trail, and I acknowledge that Charlie Chaplain had many advantages over me. However, despite this fact, he still left hope for the rest of us and proved that such relationship CAN work despite the hostility and intolerance of society. I am not blind to the faults of teen girls and younger women, but I love them nevertheless and always will, despite how many times I am hurt and betrayed by one of them. There is also a lot of good to be found in them, and just because I haven't been a recipient of that goodness very often that doesn't mean I didn't receive a lot of happiness during the time they remained in my life, and that also doesn't mean that many others, both within and outside our community, hasn't benefitted from the presence of a young woman with much more good than bad in her character. I certainly refuse to hate all women of every age simply because they have always treated me like garbage, especially when I have many women as valued friends.

Keep in touch, pal! I'm here if you need me, just as you are always there when I need you.
