I always try to follow my gut instinct . As it does lead me right almost always . I didn't always live by this motto . So now i'm making up for lost time i guess .

My gut has been wrong. It's rare, but it happens. There are some people that I disliked upon first meeting who are my most cherished people now. Sometimes, your instinct is talking from fear - and it's hard to know when to ignore it and when to listen.

fuck your gut i am more impressed with the bravery it takes to sit down with an ex. way too often i treat old relationships like a wound that scabs and scars and i dont want to pick at again. that will change with the ex i guess. kudos on the bravery though.

@ Just.. same here. I've always listened to it and almost cultivated that sense. It's something that is worth listening to. @ Trya.. Live and learn, right? @ Blue... thanks.. it.... went. Im not sure what to make of it yet. @ Rod... Good call. Pay attention to em! @ CNN.... Good point. As an example, the first time picky_vixen met me, she thought I was a total bitch. Now, she knows im a bitch and loves be because of it lol @ Spider... thanks, I wouldnt call it brave.. stupid, yes. Brave, no lol

Interesting that you put this post up at this time cause I am one who usually goes with my gut but recently I have gone against it and against the advice of my friends in re-connecting with a guy I use to date that doesn't have the best history with me. So I know what you mean about the butterflies in the stomach and asking myself "why am I doing this" yet I still find myself in that situation when I know that I'm playing with fire.

Can't say for sure if it will lead me in the right direction or not cause it just happened so I guess time will only tell....

Most of my worst mistakes occur after overriding what my gut tells me. If you don't trust yourself, who can you trust?

@soaks - an example about gut being off? I hated lue the first time I met her - and we all know how i feel about her now.

Based on some other blog postings from you- I'd say you need to resolve what ever issues in this regard and one way or the other, get some closure.

@ Outta.... damn women!! lol @ Latina.. I know, im such a hypocrite eh? lol @ Rod... Im not sure. It was awesome to sit and chat and have lunch, but I think it solidified my stance on us. So, that part was good. It was bad in the sense that all I wanted to do was throw my thoughts away and take him home with me.... but i didnt @ CNN... (btw, I just typed evil instead of cnn and i corrected myself.. wtf lol) This is true! lol @ Skin... the problem is that I've had the closure. I've walked away and was over it, moved on etc. But it's one of those relationships where... Hmmm how do I say this without sounding cliche? We both have such strong feelings for each other that it wouldnt matter if 2 days or 20 years have passed, we would both still have that pull towards each other. I really dont know how else to describe it. It's this overwhelming feeling of trust, comfort and love that is so difficult to explain.

I have to respectfully disagree, having had a similar situation.... and and extra 13 years on this mudball over you, (not over you literally tho that could be a hella good time if my back would hold out!) If, in my opinion, you have the 3 things you list in your last sentence- you have more than enough to go the long distance. The "it" you refer to is not the relationship or connection itself - it's that one of the parties, or both, is unwilling at some level, for some reason, to commit. That said, regardless of the reason(s) and whether the issue(s) can be resolved, I feel like this: "If it cannot happen, do I want to watch my time slipping away, blind, oblivious,not open to seeing or searching for a possibly equal, or dare I say, greater connection somewhere?" For me, uber single and with out a trip over the last few strides to homeplate, (been passed 3rd with some friends a few times), since 08-12-08 (whahhH!!)? I say: Nope.

Ohh. And I still think you have fantastical breastages lassie. I'll surely regret missing the uber-funnosity proffered on my birfday now that I'm escaping Redneckistan for greener pastures, too far away for even my limber tongue and lips to reach.

@ Skin.... this is gonna sound arrogant. But... No, sometimes, you can have as much of those three things and it still doesnt work out. There are so many other factors that come into play and if they arent all aligned, it doesn't work
