It's Over

Regular visitors to this web site may remember that I had "met" someone through the Internet (we won't go into all that again). She came into town again this past weekend, we spent the day together Sunday, and we had an absolutely fantastic time.

Well, we were talking on the phone this past evening and I playfully asked her if she missed me. Turns out, on her drive back home to (her town), she'd been doing a lot of soul-searching. And she did feel that we connected on a lot of different levels, except the most important one: she didn't have any romantic feelings for me. And when two people are looking for a relationship, that's kinda important. Like ULTRA-IMPORTANT. And it's something you just can't force, either it's there, or it isn't. And I cannot and will not say anything bad about her; she's a beautiful lady, inside and out. She was as kind and as gentle as anyone could have been under the circumstances. I could tell she felt really awful. I was glad that she was honest with me, even though it hurt like hell.

Damn. Shit. F*ck. Sonofabitch. We were supposed to run away and be spies and sell real estate and sing karaoke. Guess none o' that's happening.

Well, as you can imagine, I'm completely devastated. Hopefully, I can get back to funny stuff soon; I don't really like this kind of blogging at all, it's not for me.

God bless you all.

Yaxlich is sorry to read that things did not work out for Jim. He understands how difficult it is to find love but is sure that Jim will find someone to run away with soon. Yaxlich thinks, though, that Jim would be better off looking for just a regular karaoke singing realtor as spies tend not to enjoy singing "Islands In The Stream" at 2am. Certainly not the spies yaxlich has met anyway.

That sucks. I'm sorry to hear that Jim. I know it hurts, I've dealt with it too many times in the past couple of years. It hurts no matter if you're the rejector or the rejectee. Why do relationships have to be so hard??? Of course that's a rhetorical question but sometimes you just have to say it out loud and in angst. Then maybe you move on or maybe you wallow in pity for a while. Either way, I hope you can move past this quickly and get back to being the fungi, oops I mean fun guy we've grown to know and love here in your blog (and elsewhere). :-)

I'm sorry that it didn't work out for the two of you. But like I said somewhere else, your electronic cyber support group is here for you!

Sorry about that.

I am finding that online dating just sucks the big one. It takes so much out of the "attraction" part of it.

When it gets to the 'soul searching' stage, Jim, you can be sure what happened will happen.

Hi Jim, I'm new to your blog and just got the news from Yaxlich. I'm sorry to hear your news. However from what I read and can take away about you - you'll not only survive but get stronger and meet just the right person for you at just the right time. I wish you all the best.

Who needs to date when you've got access to flickr's bikini page? Honestly now.

OHHHH!! I am so sorry ! I really am. It hurts to get excited about someone and it doesn't work out.

Ouch, Ouch, Ouch. Life sucks sometimes!

I give you credit for opening your heart. So, bonus points to you for being a sensitive and honest guy!!

I totally throw myself, my heart, into new things, so I know how it feels to have a disappointment like that. :-(
