a true romantic hmm that's why I'm single and listening to starsailor poor misguided fool lol

why do people think that relationships are the answer to everyone's emotional needs?
they're not! far from it!
i think it just screams emotional immaturity if you think one person will be a cure-all to your lonliness and insecurities.

Well said SN.

Very true.. It does not take from the romantic in me but unless you are a complete person in yourself, self sufficient emotionally you will not find a partner just someone who is dependent on you or whom you are dependent on (would that be a dependee?)
All you ever need is within but the urge to share is there..

this is true of course sexynympho.

yes anfor, everyone wants to share their lives with someone special, it's all a bit pointless without someone to share it with.

I don't think it's true for everyone. For me a healthy relationship is one that is inter-dependant which only works with folk who are sorted with themselves and, IMO they are better placed to thrive in a relationship. I think your view SN is a tad cynical.
