Psychologically lonely

[Thumpalumpacus]

Thump, that's great. I really like that. :-)

Isn't it, though?

Here's the entire lyric:

We are secrets to each other
Each one's life a novel
No one else has read
Even joined in bonds of love
We're linked to one another
By such slender threads

We are planets to each other
Drifting in our orbits
To a brief eclipse
Each of us a world apart
Alone and yet together
Like two passing ships

[Chorus:]
Just between us
I think it's time for us to recognize
The differences we sometimes fear to show
Just between us
I think it's time for us to realize
The spaces in between
Leave room for you and I to grow

We are strangers to each other
Full of sliding panels
An illusion show
Acting well rehearsed routines
Or playing from the heart?
It's hard for one to know

[Chorus]

We are islands to each other
Building hopeful bridges
On a troubled sea
Some are burned or swept away
Some we would not choose
But we're not always free

[Chorus]

Do you already have a heart condition or are you just health conscious? Just curious.

My heart skips beats, possibly from all the drugs and drinking I used to do. Now I don't even drink caffeine and my heart is OK most of the time.
I don't think it affects my fitness because I go to the gym a lot and I do ok.

That sucks. Glad it's alright though.

I'm not sure what to say here, so I'll just say welcome to the forums

[brewer]

Welcome.

No allergies to vegans here. They taste great! Catholics too!

Hi and welcome to the forums.
If you are really looking for a good partner then have no expectations. People are different and that makes relations fun.

[Dust_bunny]

Wait, are you saying that you can't relate to people who don't think like you?
Is "not believing" in little green men a deal breaker for you? Lol.
You do know that there's no such thing as a perfect partner.
You can make it work. Maturity and compromise I find is they key.
It's like I want to go here, the wife wants to go there. We compromise and go there! Lol.
Everybody's happy! (and I get dinner that evening!)  Dinner = important!  Hehe

I cant relate to many peoples thinking and logic most of the time no, I can understand their feelings but they usually seem illogical or foolish to me

No, I cant prove the little green men...so no deal closer here

But the guy has got to be atheist or non worshipping christian or a pagan or something benign. My mother has decided to become a pagan and i think its hilarious and great. 

I could never marry a bible thumper, just never. I could never marry a smoker, or a weed smoker. A bit of booze on the weekend is ok.

That is really beautiful but heres my take. We are a bunch of bacteria and we all have our Germy relatives and friends just like us. I am a mutated antibiotic resistant bug trying to stay alive in a hostile environment where they want me dead, while I swim alone endlessly searching for my fellow Germys lol

Dusty, now you're sounding pretty normal to me...
Welcome to the club!

PS, tell us what sort of woo you're into?
Aliens? What else? Astrology? Phrenology? Remember, we might laugh because we're bastards and we like to make our own fun, but we won't judge anybody for their beliefs. (Usually just the flawed reasoning behind it)

Speaking of, The wife and I were at the pokies the other day. You know sometimes you get a random feature thing where you have to touch things on the screen to reveal a prize. Usually you get just the free spins or the mini jackpot (about 20 odd bucks, etc). So on Saturday, I told the wife, this time I'm going to concentrate. I ended up getting the major jackpot.
That paid quite a bit. Anyway, after getting this random feature 3 more time, I kept concentrating.
I got the bigger jackpot every time! (Over $100). I thought: fuck! I am a little bit psychic! Withing 2 seconds I was entertaining leaving work and doing this for a living! The wife was onboard! Why not! I just proved it to her 4 times in a row!

Suffice to say, I got this feature again another 4 times and even though I was concentrating on the same fuzzy feelings to guide me to choose, I got the shit one every time! I was devasted! More because I had to go back to work on Monday and also because I realised that maybe I'm not that special after all....damn!

And I'm a sceptic! I now know how easy it is to get sucked in to the woo! I experienced it first hand...
Catch.

Feelings and outlook interact in a feedback loop. A negative outlook often results in a negative emotional state, which will affect one's outlook ...

Be yourself. If you're not yourself, whoever falls in love with you is not falling in love with you.

If you need help changing your emotional state, please seek it. Life is too short to be unhappy.

It's fair enough to have a list of things you require from a potential partner. I have developed such a list over the course of my life.

The more specific it becomes, then the less potential partners there are, of course. So it's about how much you're willing to compromise.

There are some things I would never compromise on. So if all the things you mentioned are things that you wouldn't either, then it's a respectable position but sadly it's unlikely anyone will fit the bill. Not impossible, of course.

I'm not lonely for company, I can have that any time I want, but I'm seriously lonely for the right company. I'm like this mix of too many things all in one and they dont really match to create a group type for me. For example, Im an athiest but I support unregulated herbal medicine, I dont take vaccines (which i do realise is selfish) but i feel they are dangerous. I eat organic because I think GMO"S are dangerous. I dont drink and i dont support smoking weed which most athiests do. Im like this mixture of ungrouped beliefs. I also am lax on spelling and dont care which annoys athiests which is probably spelled atheists if i think about it. i like very different music than most athiests, im just different and its terrible. 

I cant find someone to date with similar taste in music because I like this dance euro and latin stuff and most europeans are religious maniacs. My head hurts with the music of my athiest friends. When people talk to me about the fact that they support big pharma I feel like they are sheep, but most atheists support pharmaceuticals and the companies.[...]

Woo... overload... 
Must... remain... civil... 

If you consider people who disagree with you "sheep", you have no one but yourself to blame, if you're lonely. I know, because I do and I am...

But even I don't think it's a good idea to bring back infectious diseases, just because needles are scary, it's been a while since we've seen victims of polio woddle about and the Internet says vaccines make you retarded - and the Internet wouldn't lie to us now, would it?... smh... Snap out of it, would you? Pretty please?...

Anyway - welcome to the forum. I'm not really bothered by the music you like, what recreational drugs you aren't into, or how you spell stuff, but I hope you'll avoid talking about medicine, because the kind of nonsense you seem to be into is dangerous and offensive. Better yet - I hope one day you'll learn enough about biology and chemistry, to realize how wrong you are right now (I don't really believe you will, but hope springs eternal...).
