I suppose it is. I suppose he needs to find someone he has hard feelings for. I should not end a sentence with a preposition, at least it is not a proposition for once.

I have at long last found my dignity. I want to be wanted.

This confusion is not of God. God is not the author of confusion.

I do not know why he was with me, and with me now. It is a mystery.

He has hard feelings for...? What?

Who are you talking about? The guy I'm talking to or the guy your talking about. Yes you are confusing. Really confusing.

Do you think I am this guy???

I don't think that this guy would pretend to be someone else to reach out for you. Maybe he doesn't want you at all. Maybe you need to let him go. That's what I'm trying to do, let him go.

If a man wants something he will get it.

Yes keep your dignity and find a man that wants you.

..lol and here all this time I thought you were someone genuinely rooting for my situation. I think it's rather disturbing..

but I know the feeling. You look for the one person you love in everyone, but it's delusion.

A man who loves you isn't going to play games or put you in confusion if they really wanted you at all.

if he is keeping you a secret it's not love... you're just a booty call.. he doesn't love you..
He doesn't want you.

He would be proud of you.

Whether he loves and wants me is immaterial. I love and want him.

I am not a booty call, unfortunately. I wish I were, to be quite honest. Perhaps that is shocking.

Whether or not he requites it, it does not matter.

I hope you are well and will find someone to love and want.

To be loved back in return is EXTREMELY important in all situations. It's what keeps a healthy flow of two becoming one body/marriage together. It is being considerate of each others feelings. Teamwork..

If they don't love you back then you are just some psycho stalker, who needs help...because you are bothering someone who does not want to be bothered. That's when it is time to walk away, especially when you ask for a sign and they give you a giant "NO". Then they don't want you..

If you love this guy you would care about whether he loves or wants you, and you would respect him and it would be highly important to you. It's just ...selfish. This isn't of God, what you talk about.

Actually it's both shocking and really gross to wish to be a booty call. No self respecting woman wants to be that, otherwise there would be no shame in it, and its just so disgusting...This is some very corrupt and gutter talk...it is not of God.

but there is definitely a lot of shame in it....

Actually I'm not desperate for a man, I have God who gives me strength to get through this short life. If I do find a man he is going to love and want me, and I will find out what I've been missing out on all this time.

Thank you
by me

If you think that I don't
know about all the things you
have done, all the sacrifices
that you have made for me,
and what you put yourself through,
you are wrong.

I do know about them,
and I am grateful,
more than you will ever know..

When I said I wanted to let you go,
I thought...

that you didn't want me anymore,
so I was only trying to respect
your wish, and to stop bothering you,
because I thought you didn't want anything
to do with me.
I'm not trying to mess with your head.

If you have loved and wanted me,
then I'm sorry for the misunderstanding..

I have no idea, really..
I really wanted it to be you,
I love you.​

Poem
by me

There could be trouble.

how could you possibly know how I feel?
you burn and ignite my fires,
leave me wanting more of this cruelty,
and I once again become love's fool.

There lies my heart.
I had spent my savings,
just so I could run and see you,
and you rejected me,
now I cannot even afford a home.

Say the word,
and I would fly to you.
Give all that I had
just to be close to you.

How could you say such a thing?

Am I not allowed to feel frustrations
for the heartaches of longing and loneliness
of being bloodied and barb wired with cruel limitation?

To feel a passion yet not be able to touch?
My heart weeps and crumbles as much.

You say your heart was doomed yesterday,
but mine stopped the day I dreamed of you.

Oblivious
by me

I believe that you love me,
and that you are putting yourself
through a lot more than I could
ever imagine.

Maybe you think that I don't
appreciate you or what you are doing.
Honestly how can you expect me
to know all of this?

I was pretty much oblivious to it all,
and I have to play your guessing game
of "what's going on?"

I thought you were being cruel
and messing with me,
because I don't know.

Please forgive me, and please don't be angry at me
for doubting that you love me.
I am sorry, I will try harder
to understand.

I do love you.​

Maybe he is afraid. Of what, I don’t know. There is something that makes him think you can not be together. I wish for your sake, he would let all the impediments go and believe that amor omnia vincit. I hope so much it works out for you both.

When I am afraid I always remember the scripture

Perfect love drives out fear.

I think that maybe I need to be more understanding and patient. Love is patient. I want to be patient.

Thanks. I hope it works out for you and your guy too. With all the love in your heart that you hold, you're worth all of it. I hope he sees it in you.
...and I'm sorry for being so harsh and crude to you, all of it was mostly talking to myself there with how I was feeling about myself. Sorry that I projected it on you.

No, please don’t be sorry. You are not harsh or crude. :) Thank you for talking to me. Yes, lovers should not be afraid. It is not good, and rather harmful. I need to be understanding and patient, also.

Thank you for your good wishes. I hope very much that you and your fellow will be together.

It is quite alright, I do not mind. I was mean to you, also. I am sorry.

"There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear.
For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love." 1 John 4:18

I really hope that I can be with him too.

It's okay. I forgive you. :)
Thank you for being so nice and for being my friend.

Worn
by Tenth Avenue North

I'm tired
I'm worn
My heart is heavy
From the work it takes to keep on breathing

I've made mistakes
I've let my hope fail
My soul feels crushed
By the weight of this world

And I know that you can give me rest
So I cry out with all that I have left
Let me see redemption win
Let me know the struggle ends

That you can mend a heart that's frail and torn
I want to know a song can rise
From the ashes of a broken life
And all that's dead inside can be reborn
'Cause I'm worn

I know I need
To lift my eyes up
But I'm too weak
Life just won't let up

And I know that You can give me rest
So I cry out with all that I have left
Let me see redemption win
Let me know the struggle ends
That you can mend a heart that's frail and torn

I want to know a song can rise
From the ashes of a broken life
And all that's dead inside can be reborn
Cause I'm worn

And my prayers are wearing thin
I'm worn even before the day begins
I'm worn I've lost my will to fight
I'm worn so heaven so come and flood my eyes

Let me see redemption win
Let me know the struggle ends
That you can mend a heart that's frail and torn

I want to know a song can rise
From the ashes of a broken life
And all that's dead inside can be reborn
Yes all that's dead inside will be reborn
Though I'm worn
Yeah I'm worn

Godsend
by DC Talk

Hoping, praying, I've been waiting
Everybody needs somebody to love
There's no question, straight from heaven
You're my angel, I'm so crazy for you

You're a Godsend
A blessing from above
You've been God-sent to me
You're the Godsend
I've been dreaming of
You're a Godsend

Holding your hand, touching your face
I will love you now and always I swear
I will never forget that first moment we met
When two worlds collided and I found my best friend

I was made for you, you were made for me
In this lonely world, we were meant to be in love

I will never forget that first moment we met
When two worlds, they crashed in
And I found my best friend

You're a Godsend
A blessing from above
You've been God-sent to me
You're the Godsend
I've been dreaming of
You're a Godsend

You are going to make it.
You just have to keep holding on,
and pushing forward.
Don't give up.
Run and finish your race.
I have it on good authority,
that it is going to be alright.

and that it will be worth it all.

I love you,
You are not alone,
I will help you get through this.
I am with you.
I will not let you fall.
I will send you help.

I will be here
Lyrics by Steven Curtis Chapman

Tomorrow morning if you wake up
And the sun does not appear
I,I will be here

If in the dark we lose sight of love
Hold my hand and have no fear
'Cause I,I will be here

I will be here
When you feel like being quiet
When you need to speak your mind
I will listen
And I will be here
When the laughter turns to crying
Through the winning, losing and trying

We'll be together
'Cause I will be here

Tomorrow morning if you wake up
And the future is unclear
I,I will be here
As sure as seasons are made for change
Our lifetimes are made for years
So I,I will be here

I will be here
And you can cry on my shoulder
When the mirror tells us we're older
I will hold you
And I will be here
To watch you grow in beauty
And tell you all the things you are to me
I will be here, hmmm

I will be true to the promise I have made
To you and to the One who gave you to me

And just as sure as seasons are made for change
Our lifetimes are made for years
So I,I will be here
We'll be together
I will be here

Thanks! :)

The thing is, it's not really a song or a poem, it was just a few words of encouragement. Now that I think about it, it kind of reminds me of that movie Frozen, that song "for the first time in forever - reprise." I'll post the video and lyrics in a min.

For The First Time In Forever (Reprise)
Song and lyrics from: Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez,
Voices: Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel

Anna:
You don't have to protect me I'm not afraid
Please don't shut me out again,
Please don't slam the door
You don't have to keep your distance anymore

'Cause for the first time in forever
I finally understand
For the first time in forever
We can fix this hand in hand

We can head down this mountain together
You don't have to live in fear
'Cause for the first time in forever,
I will be right here

Elsa:
Anna,
Please go back home, your life awaits
Go enjoy the sun and open up the gates

Anna:
Yeah, but -

Elsa:
I know
You mean well, but leave me be
Yes, I'm alone, but I'm alone and free
Just stay away and you'll be safe from me

Anna:
Actually we're not

Elsa:
What do you mean you're not?

Anna:
I get the feeling you don't know

Elsa:
What do I not know?

Anna:
Arendelle's in deep, deep, deep, deep snow

Elsa:
What?

Anna:
You've kind of set off an eternal winter... everywhere

Elsa:
Everywhere?

Anna:
It's okay, you can just unfreeze it

Elsa:
No, I can't, I - I don't know how!

Anna:
Sure you can! I know you can!
'Cause for the first time in forever,

Elsa:
Oh I'm such a fool, I can't be free!

Anna:
You don't have to be afraid

Elsa:
No escape from the storm inside of me!

Anna:
We can work this out together

Elsa:
I can't control the curse!

Anna:
We'll reverse the storm you've made

Elsa:
Ohhhh, Anna, please, you'll only make it worse!

Anna:
Don't panic

Elsa:
There's so much fear!

Anna:
We'll make the sun shine bright

Elsa:
You're not safe here!

Anna:
We can face this thing together

Elsa:
Oh!

Anna:
We can change this winter weather

Elsa:
AHHHHH...

[Anna:]
And everything will be alright...

Elsa:
I CAN'T!
