What makes a man tall?
The ability to listen to the bull**** that women talk about. Or at least pretend really well.
The appreciation of an Amazon woman mentallity.
He loves bunions.
He like to explore.
He sees that there is alot more of what he is looking for.
He likes that she can reach for items on the top shelfs.
Any more ....don't get me started..

I told someone the story of my current situation a couple weeks ago. He admired my efforts to rebuild my marriage rather than give-up, and forget about it. He said this to me: "Never mind how high your head sits off the ground, young man. You're a giant. Never forget that. It's all in the heart."

Ahhh, such advice from a friend..
It's not about height, but about the ability to love and understand. Some of the things I hear these days...
You're an full woman. You are so much taller than my wife. It's so nice to walk with someone that fits me. (all though we did not fit mentally)
or
tall men will tell me how big they are (if you know what I mean) and they are not.
tall men have trouble with tall women (too much competition, I suppose)
tall men will tell a tall women that they are so glad they met someone that now when they are in bed their feet don't get cold.

This woman you posted about leaving you in February....
She sees you as a very decent man and will not tell you the truth..and probably never will.. you can only change your tune or dance.. Hope you can handle that..

Do I know you? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> You sound like you know what you're talking about. Maybe it's common sense speaking... maybe you do know who I am. If you do know me, please say so... you don't have to reveal your name to me.
At any rate... as for the truth... I honestly don't care what the truth is. As I've said these things before... I believe that what she's saying is true (she's not a very good liar at all, btw...). But, even if it isn't... I've chosen my resolve, and I will not waver from it. I know what I'm getting into, and I'm ready for it. I love her, and I will forgive her. I know there is a way to move past these things.

It really is common sense... I can tell I hit a nerve with you..sorry.. but I do not know you! Really!
But I do have a suggestion for you and her.. Take it or leave it...OK?
How about you both wear name tags for a week just when you are together, not like in public...
First day..yours may say "I want to be honest and love you today" Maybe hers would say the same or whatever she wanted to wear.
The second day, yours says, " I am going to be dishonest with you all day, let me know if you can tell?"
And then see what she puts on her name tag.
It may be an eye opener...just a suggestion.. I don't know the outcome that's up to you.
Third day for you.."I love you, and I will forgive you. I know there is a way to move past these things." Hers ?
Then the forth day, if you can get her to go along with it this far.. Your name tag will say, "I've chosen my resolve, and I will not waver from it" See what she chooses...
Fourth day for you.."I know what I'm getting into, and I'm ready for it" Hers ?

That's the exact words she said to her mother about me when she told her we split up... "he's a very decent man. I know he loves me."
Now... for the rest of your post. That's a damn good idea. If I get the chance to do that, I will. Only, I think trading flash cards will work better. <small>[ April 13, 2004, 12:59 AM: Message edited by: Jarod_Wynde ]</small>

Flash cards, great idea... Does she like chocolate or sweet nothings.. go to the dime store and find something simple to attach to the flash cards..or use really flashy colors...make it surreal..maybe?? Let me know how it works...I might even try my own advice..
My husband left me after I found out that I had breast cancer...I'm in chemo now and we started talking again...and he has agreed to go on a retreat with me for some holistic help...I can't tell you how much it means to me that he is willing to do this...even though he is divorcing me..maybe it will be a closure or maybe a new beginning...I'll let you know..it's a week or so away..but he's so bull headed that I know he won't back out...It beats what I have been thru lately...I definitely have a new outlook on life right now...I hope you keep posting..Thanks...

I guess that's universal with most women.

hey are you really out there...did you see beyond the problems in your own hand?
It's about give and take.. what are you giving? From what I have read it's all about your feelings and desires...

I can see why she is having a problem with you... Where is she right now...in bed..at home... away? Are you being honest with the rest of the people that are corresponding to you?

I want to know how to act, and how not to act. I want her and I to be happy again. I'm here because I want help with my probelms in this mess. I'm here because I want to change. and also because I want to learn how to make my improvements stick.
I'm being as honest as any human being is capable of. That's all I can say for honesty. Everyone has their own spin on things... I'm no different.

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Originally posted by tallrose: <strong> So where is she? </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">She lives about 8 miles away from my apartment. In the house we lived in before we separated. We rented a room in that house from a former friend of mine, who owns the place. We have an agreement to live apart until July 2nd... then, she moves in with me, and we start the real reconciliation. The future is uncertain, though... I'll have to wait until July to see if this is truely going to happen.
Maybe that was too much of an answer... but, that's my answer.
