Hard To Find
by jaksrepair at 10/4/2009 9:49:22 PM

Where I worked, the employees that worked with and for me were mostly young ladies. I would hear them talking about the guy they dated was a jerk. These young ladies were very beautiful and heartful. They had feelings and didn't deserve to be treated like dirt.
I always believed that a relationship is a 50/50 thing. Caring, sharing, being honest, doing things together (or for her, then for him).
I have been divorced since 1996. It was a friendly divorce and we talked things out. It worked out good. But now I am lonely. I had to sell my place to keep from loosing it to the bank and moved in with my brother. I pay him rent for the two room I have and half of a garage.
Even just to be with someone, to talk, to go places with, do things with and share my life with and listen to her tell me about her life would be welcome.
When I was married, she broke a drill I had. It was old but one of my favorites. My first concern was "Are you alright?" Her health was most important. She complained that she broke my drill. I told her, "I don't care about the drill. That can be replaced, but a foot or a finger can't."
I don't know why she wanted out and she really wouldn't say, but I agreed if it would keep her happy in her life. Maybe I wasn't lively enough for her?
Anyways, I hate to see anyone get hurt - physically or emotionally.
They say - always tell the truth. Sometimes it hurts, but it's for the best in the end results. I can live with myself, I can sleep at night, I can feel free. I tell the truth.
I don't do drugs - don't even like taking prescription drugs. I don't drink, I'm afraid that I might get hooked on that like I smoke. (about a pack a day)
I'm not gay and don't like to ask someone out for a date. Maybe I'm wrong, but if someone wants to ask me, I will leave that up to them, let them make the decision. I won't force anything upon anyone. If nobody asks, then so be it. I may be stubborn, but I don't take advantage of anybody. I do watch out for my self, and if needed, I will watch out for you as well. (meaning that I would help you if you want it.)
After all, we're all human.

They do say that a person should take care of themselves first, then think about others. But I must say, "It is not in my nature to think of myself first, then of others." Although it does depend on how I place myself on the todum poll - shich is very low since I care about the well being of others much more.
