for two depressed persons to date." i wrote that confession a while ago. someone commented, "If you are genuine as you say you are, I really do hope the best for you and that it works out with this person. From your comments maybe you are the one who needs protecting. They may be enjoying the attention but not willing to invest anymore into it. Be careful dating online, including divulging information here, there are some really shitty folks that are apt at taking advantage and have made a career out of it. Take care and wishing you more healthy reciprocated relationships." it couldn't have been truer. they are seeing many people, following hundreds of women, yet writing me poetic prose when i began slipping from their grasp. i wasted so much time. they couldn't care less. if a person wants you, they will see you a lot. they will be attentive. they will love you. do not wait for someone out of pity because the truth is that they may not feel the same way about you. i am learning the hard way, after over a year of it.
