When I began eating a vegetarian diet in 2001, my live-in boyfriend at the time did not. We had both come upon information about how much healthier it was to substitute vegetable proteins for meat, the cruelty involved in raising and butchering animals for food, and the environmental impact of our taste for animal flesh. But while I was moved to act, he was content to not change, saying “I just like to eat meat too much to stop”. I found it a huge turn-off, and this was one of a few reasons why he became an ex-boyfriend. To me, it was another example of how rigid he was, his inability to personally evolve.
Liz LaPointPublished 7 years ago in HumansThat Old Familiar Rain
In the wee hours of twilight the rhythm of the falling rain moves with a tempo whose melody is unmistakably somber in tone. The pitter patter beats a painful reminder of those yesteryears where bittersweet moments still linger in conscious thought. The gaiety of life was often subdued by tears of sorrow and woe. As I recall it was the tumultuous relationship with my parents that set me adrift in the sea of missed opportunity. Those were the days of struggle amidst hope. The decisions I made though affected more than just me. And, yet I keep paying a price for every day I threw away.
Dr. WilliamsPublished 7 years ago in HumansFlames Of Desire
An emotion so primal, where the flames of desire have once again risen, keeps reoccurring in the recesses of my mind. Like ghosts of long lost loves which have come back as a haunting reminder of the past. The one that passed away all too soon and the one that got away those many years ago, where the memories are as clear and picturesque as glimmering snow-capped mountains have once again stirred flames of desire of the memories I hold dear.
Dr. WilliamsPublished 7 years ago in HumansLove Hurts...
Sometimes the person you love the most turns out to be the person who never loved you enough to deserve you. Faking love hurts more than the bitter truth... There is always this one person who comes in your life to save you from the past even when you promise yourself that you wont let anyone in. They make you change your mind to let them in. I have been hurt by many. People who were once my everything, turned out be my nothing now. I have one of the most horrible experiences in life regarding love. I once made a grave mistake giving up on someone who I did love but who loved me truly more than others. I gave up on him for someone else later who turned out to be an asshole. I never stopped loving that one person on who I gave up just for distance. I might have loved others more but still he was always there in my heart. After dating 2 other guys after him, made me realise how much of a fool I was. I regret breaking up with him so much. I wish things hadn't turned out like it did. I still want him to know how much I regret it but it seems as if he doesn't want anything to do with me even tho he says things at times which sounds like he wants me back. I wish thing go back to how it was. I was a fool to say yes to someone else who turned out to be the biggest asshole. This is for all the guys out there, not everything is about sex and not every relationships depend on sex. Sex isn't everything. Love still exists and never ignore the efforts of someone who wants love and care, not sex. Loving someone who doesn't love you back hurts more than anything. Hate turns into love and love turns into hate. I have been through this enough to know who really loved me. I regret so many choices I made in life but all I ever wanted was someone who would love me unconditionally and care about me and not be all about sex. I have cried myself to sleep for the people I have loved who didn't bother thinking about me for a second. Girls out there who have done this and have gone through this, trust me people say its not worth it and its true. its not worth it to cry for someone who doesn't give a damn about you. But we are girls and thats how much these things hurt us. I was always inspired by people who write about their experiences in life about love so thats what made me want to share a part of my life and my love life...

Susan McCordPublished 7 years ago in HumansEmbrace Your Singleness
My love life is a total joke, and I’m not mad about it. The reality is that I’ve never been the kind of women that WANTS to be in a relationship. When most of my friends were talking about their crush, I was either drinking or reading about fashion. No, I’m not an alcoholic, what I’m trying to say is that my passion for fashion, my family, and my social life have always been more important than guys (actually, any aspect of my life has been more relevant than love relationships).

At the risk of having my pending wedding invitations revoked, I have to start with the disclaimer that I’ve been in love, that it’s wonderful, and that I respect the couples that I know who truly complement one another -- This article isn’t for you. It's for my fellow single millennials whose compositions of friend groups range from the "happily married" to "previously married" to "never married but with children" and everything in between. It's for those of us deciphering societal expectations, questioning if they apply to us, and deciding whether or not we care.
