Missed Connections: Relationships 101

Each week Houstonist checks out Missed Connections on Craiglist. Here's a few that we found interesting.

RE: seeking something that doesnt exist. - w4m - 27 - w4m

That's how life works... You don't give a fuck about the guys that care about you, and the ones you care about, don't give a fuck about you. Don't feel offended by the words. That is just reality.

As a guy I can tell you that the problem are not your partners. You expect men to change because of you or the things you do for them. Please realize this will never happen.
I see women do that all the time but I guess you can't really choose who feel attracted to.

Anyways, you should try take someone you can trust, thats respects you, and really cares about you. The rest of good features yet desirable should be optional.

Good luck.

It's not just a she thang - but, it's a reality, nonetheless. Unrequited love, who hasn't faced it. From the teen hearthrob or sex kitten you drooled over before you could date, to the person you just knew you loved, if they would give you the time of day. Sometimes, we can't "just be friends", and we despise the competition that "doesn't deserve you". Shallow is as shallow does, she apparently needs to quit digging for gold, or something (grow up). We shouldn't just "settle" for someone tolerable - fireworks and sparks are in order. Find your happiness, and hang on. If you do happen to get bucked off, get back on. Otherwise, this guy makes several good points, after all, it's all about money trust.

You're gone-

You and me both! What a Karmic odyssey!

If you're going to refer to karma, please understand what it is. Karma is not a relationship ending. Karma is when the bastard cheats on you - and his new bitch "prize" does the "hokey pokey" with all of his friends, and he finds out. What you do and what you give comes back to you. Breaking up? Well, that's just hard to do. If he or she is gone, good riddance and move on.

: the force generated by a person's actions held in Hinduism and Buddhism to perpetuate transmigration and in its ethical consequences to determine the nature of the person's next existence.

re: you're gone (houston)

maybe if you weren't such a pussy and had some balls and some self esteem you'd have gotten up and said, you know, this isn't working for me and you aren't my cup of tea. so, i have to go and you have to go. instead of waiting for that person to leave and then posting a chicken shit ad like that. what a f*cktard you both are. and then you wonder why your relationships never work out. hello. because you're both idiots.

remember that what you put out into the universe is what the universe returns to you. karma's not a bitch, but she'll make your life one if you are.

oh and since this is missed connections: I MISS YOU!!!!

Well, that's "on point".

This edition is rather short, so, we'll have a "bonus" Missed Connections for you, tomorrow afternoon.
