A lot of people has accused me of wearing my heart on my sleeve. First time I heard of that phrase was when I was only 15. Really didn’t know what it meant then, but as the years went by, I learned, and I will have to admit that it’s true…I indeed wear my heart on my sleeve. I’m a passionate, romantic person, and very loving. Just can’t help it. That’s just who I am.
It can be a burden at time though for the simple fact at times I can come on too strong. Do try to control myself.. Maybe it’s because I’m too venerable; wanting to just jump into a relationship without really thinking it over.. Maybe…Maybe not. I do try to hold it at bay…wanting to really get acquainted with the other person. Becoming friends Watching for those “red flags”..You know what I mean, and lately I have been able to do just that.
There is a time though when you do meet someone who you think is really special, you just want to jump right in..Well…that can be a big downfall. Sadly to say that had happened to me at one time. Wrecked my life.
I am still struggling to pickup the pieces, and believe I have, and ready to face whatever comes my way once again.
No… I am not afraid. Never. To me that’s not living. I am ready to accept all challenges laid before me. A fighter you might say, but also a romantic. That’s just me, and always will be. So be it.

don't change the friendly, careing person you are..there's nothing wrong with him. I too have been fussed at for being too trusting and friendly and jumping into a sisuation but, I have always been one to give the benefit of the doubt to a person and offer friendship at least. take care Magnolia

Oh I wouldnt worry about wearing your heart on your sleeve. At least it proves you have a heart. Many people can be heartless. So that is a positive thing. The jumping in part.......well its not always a good idea to do that right away with someone. After all you have to make yourself safe from being hurt. Controlling yourself is not a bad thing. Its sensible! No use jumping into a deep pool just because it looks attractive......then realising you cant swim.....or not enough water in it........LOL.
Showing someone respect......getting to know them......being considerate and showing some interest in them.........always wins a heart!....I feel. Think the key is.....to find someone who enjoys what you have to offer. If they dont.......thats OK also.....everyone wants someone to their own liking. Good to be brave.....and keep on keeping on. People are all different.....some real softies....and others hard as nails. People cant be anything other than who they are. If they are not to your liking or dont like the way you are.....thats ok.....keep moving on.....and they can do the same....LOL. Who you are is a gift for someone......so dont change who you are. Just learn to control the loose bits..............

Like you, I've always worn my heart on my sleeve. It's left a lifelong trail of heartache....I always traveled on emotions.
When I first joined single sites several years ago, I did so with high hopes. Now I know all I did was open Pandora's Box.
I no longer wear my heart on my sleeve and the incurable romantic in me is buried so deep I honestly don't know if I could find her again or not...don't even know if I want to.
I think single men at any age who want to find that someone special will. There's just so many single women that the odds are in men's favor. Women my age are pretty much out of luck. There aren't a whole lot of single older men and those that are, are usually looking for someone half their age and looking for eye candy...not quality. (that's what I've experienced anyway)
After a lot of self analysis I've come to the conclusion I'm just not relationship material anymore. What I have found is peace and peace of mind and at my age, that means a lot. If Mr. Right comes along then I may have to re-think some things but I no longer fuss about it. My life is good. Being alone isn't so bad....it's what I make of it. It's accepting life as it is and I no longer run on the emotional hopes and dreams that only make me feel alone and lonely.
You keep looking hun...you still have a heart and you still have hope and that right one is out there somewhere. Just be careful...........

Many people looking for a match who is smart and bright,I don't know if that will help them.
The fool can run away from you with her foolish mind.
The fool might make stupid arguement with you for no reason
The smart may brign you fortune
The smart can fool you and make your life miserable
I think moderatation in people makes good balance

Don't ever forget, when someone loves you the best possible place for your heart is on your sleeve...That way, she can see it all the time.
