I've never had a problem with not following the crowds, but as someone describing myself as happy and content with who i am. I was wondering if this is now perceived as old fashioned! On a day to day basis, i meet like- minded people with a similar view and who believe life is what you make it, but wander into a dating site and it's an avalanche of issues and seriousness.
I'm beginning to suspect that being content and happy with life IS outdated and come here merely wondering if there is someone out there of a similar mind to enjoy it. Is this dinosaur logic?...Thoughts please, as I stubbornly stick to trying to rise a smile wherever possible!

Recently I am struggling to think of what actually does make me happy! I think when you have gone through problems life can seem hard to find the meaning of. Is this as good as it gets? Maybe a good idea is to reflect back on times when you were really happy and see if what did it can be resurrected or repeated. That's if its worth repeating.
I used to like going to watch drag racing. I like live bands and comedy clubs. I like a good movie at the cinema. I have a bike licence so I could get another motorbike. You know what I mean.
Another angle is to try some new things. I'm thinking about evening classes in something like a language or cooking. This is not really 'me' as I see myself BUT that might push me to like something different AND I might meet somebody in the process. If I dont then at least I will be able speak German and fill my tummy!
I am most certainly going to concentrate on personal happiness more than I did before. I am not a selfish person but i felt I suppressed before and not able to be the real me. It might take a while to unearth the real me again but it will be worth it. I figure if I am happy in this way it will show in my face and then others will see my spark. They can join me or they can walk on by.

don't worry about the past or ex's...there's nothing you can do about it.
Keep looking forwards. I'm sure 2009 will be great!

ok...just to keep it less serious here i'll post a 'relationship issue' related random joke
A guy is down on his luck. He takes his last $500 and goes to Las Vegas.
Overnight, he has a fantastic run of luck. He stumbles out of the casino and finds a pay phone. He calls his wife and says, "Honey, pack your bags. I just won over a million dollars in Vegas."
His wife say, "That's wonderful. What should I pack for...Europe, the Carribean?"
He says, "I don't care, just be gone when I get home."

Life is what our thoughts and dreams are. We create it all with our mind mostly (let's not take unexplicable and mysterious), my last year proved it once and for all. Change your thinking, your attitude - and your life changes despite even minimum opportunities! I'm content with who I am though there's always a room for progress
Life would be too boring if it weren't so! As for Internet dating sites, I find their opportunities very limited comparing to everyday life. Being content with who you are is a rare gift, mostly people can't stand being even a couple of hours with their own self on their own, they're in constant search of some company. I bet all of us met such ones!

i do think life is what you make it but i also think that noone is truly 100% happy with themselfs you will always find faults in you because if you did not then you would have nothing to work on to make your life better.
