DEL.ICIO.USYours truly…
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
This week the Living section of the AJC ran an article about a new book out called “Other People’s Love Letters: 150 letters you were never meant to see.”
You can read the full story here.
What’s really beautiful about the collection is that it’s not just all the ushy gushy love letters. Many of them are breakup notes or letters written during difficult times in relationships. Additionally, many of them are in nontraditional letter format—screenshots of cell phone text messages, notes on napkins and e-mails.
Do you keep old love letters? I know I have a box buried away somewhere at my parents’ house. But I have pruned the collection over time, throwing out letters that didn’t mean as much to me or those from suitors I’d long since stopped loving.
What’s the best love letter (text, e-mail, sticky note) you’ve ever received? Have you ever sent a note you thought was particularly poetic? Have you ever handwritten a breakup note or a letter about your disgust for someone?
Do you think it means more to receive a handwritten letter now that we live in an era of texting and e-mail? When was the last time you handwrote a love note?

Donte’,
To be honest, I’m sending this e-mail for selfish reasons. I’m not doing so well without you and I need to move forward. I truly believe that I personally made alot of little mistakes because I tried to hard, and if I had to do it again I wouldn’t had let it go this far. I’m preparing myself to not date for a long while, while I again learn from what just happened. I can hear you now “just let it go”. I hated it when you said that, lol. Well, here’s my first step in moving on:
I dislike the fact, from day one, that you would not allow me to be apart of you. From that moment, I knew we were doomed, but I kept it to myself. The reason for thinking that way was because of how I am. I had explained to you a hundred times what I needed. I believe we are both at fault for this mess we made. I, for allowing myself to try to make you do something that you weren’t ready for. You, for pulling me in and making me fall so deeply in love with a man who I adored so very much.
*Why did you come by my home last Saturday? Why didn’t you wait until you were ready for me? If you would have come to me a year from now, whoever I was with, would of probably got the boot. I was perfectly ok until the phone rang. I daydreamed about you coming back for me 100%. When you walked into my house, I expected alot more than what you gave me. I was very disappointed that you started something you couldn’t finish. It would have been wonderful for you to turn to me while you sat next to me and stated that you wanted me back. Instead, you played with my head. You knew I still loved you, but instead insisted on making me suffer and beg for you (which I have no shame in doing). Donte’, I have no patients, you know that. All that did was make me want you more and then when you ignored all of my calls, make me angery.
My questions to you again are the same ones, because I will never understand your reasoning behind them: 1) Why are you so private? 2) What are you hiding? 3) Why haven’t you invited me out to your home? 4) Why wouldn’t you stay the night with me? 5) Why did you always leave my home so quickly? Your visits were always timed. Your the first guy that I didn’t have to kick out for over staying their welcome. 6) Over the holidays, why wouldn’t you be excited for me to meet your parents? Donte’, this is what you do with a person you love, you share them with family.
I know, I know we only knew each other for a very short time, but SO WHAT! Even though I want marriage, I wasn’t going to drag you to the alter until after some years had pasted. Your not ready for that and I don’t believe in divorce, so for me to rush into a life long commitment would be another mistake.
Were you being truthful with me regarding your female friends? Really. I wasn’t jealous of your cell phone/IM list for no reason. I wish you would have just told me like it was. So what if I was insecure, so were you in a way. I have a right to know what’s going on and to feel unthreatened in all relationships. Feeling insecure is a good thing, because then you’re smart enough to know when you are being b****** into thinking otherwise.
I hate to say it, but being in a relationship with me would of taken alot of time and work on your end. I’m so damn needy. I’m working on that, trust me. I know how busy you are, but you never gave me a chance to help you out in anyway. I would of came to you morning, day or night. When I found you, I had the same love in my soul for you that I had with Daryl and I knew this was it. After I let you go in December, I kinda tried to find that again, but like I said, they are not you.
I just wish you would have given us a chance and said F*** IT! What could it hurt. My way is sometimes the best way, you know. I have proven that over the years living with Daryl. A person who thought, his way or no way.
Well Donte’, tomorrow is a new week for me and you. I wish us both the best in life. You are always in my thoughts and dreams with your fine a*! lol. I am ok and I know your not sweatin’ the small stuff. You guys need to really thank the Lord above for allowing you to be men. You have it made. It’s going to take me longer this time to get you out of my system, because I know that you are gone forever. Before Saturday, I was confident you would come for me. I didn’t know how long it was going to take you, but to tell you the truth, it didn’t matter. I tell everyone, “I met him too early”.
Now your gone what am I gonna do so empty my heart my soul can’t go on. go on without you My rainy days fade away when you come around please tell me baby why you go so far away. Why you go.

Good Morning All,
Jazzy I have bets on 9:30am on the topic change.
I have written a email to say how I feel to give myself closure to a relationship and find the strength to move forward. Now if I want to vent out my frustrations I just write it in a poem or blog it.

Morning, everyone. :-)
Though this may not be directly along the lines of the “love letter” theme for today, I think it’s close enough to still be on-topic. (I hope so, anyway.) If not, I trust you’ll all endulge me nonetheless.
Today’s subject compels me to confess that I’m an absolute sucker for a sad love song. There’s just something about the ‘storyline’ of a song about a love lost or unrequited that pricks my heart in certain way, I guess it’s because, in looking back over my life, I can relate to both situations (as, perhaps, can many of you.)
And if you think that’s funny, let me add to that the fact that while other people are stuck in Atlanta traffic playing their R&B or Hip-Hop all loud and stuff, I’m in my car cranking slow jams and love songs to get me through. It’s true. (To each his own, right?) LOL!
My favorite sad love song of all time is a song by the band Toto called “I Won’t Hold You Back” from the CD entitled ‘Toto IV’. Here are the lyrics, but to really appreciate them, you have to listen to the song for yourself as it’s both a love letter and break-up letter all in one.
I Wont’ Hold You Back by Toto
If I had another chance tonight I’d try to tell you that the things we had were right Time can’t erase the love we shared But it gives me time to realize just how much you cared
Now you’re gone, I’m really not the same I guess I have myself to blame Time can’t erase the things we said But it gives me time to realize that you’re the one instead
Chorus: You know I won’t hold you back now, the love we had just can’t be found You know I can’t hold you back now
Now that I’m alone it gives me time to think about the years that you were mine Time can’t erase the love we shared But it gives me time to realize just how much you cared
Chorus (Instrumental break)
You know I won’t hold you back now, the love we had just can’t be found Listen to me baby You know I can’t hold you back now

I’m a pack rat and pretty much have stuff like that since high school. Every blue moon I take a gander at them.
When somebody makes a tangible effort to make you feel special and cared about, it means a lot; much more so than an email.
A girl I was seeing had drawn about 10 different phrases on paper with little doodle and styles on each phrase (1 phrase per page). Then when I wasn’t home, she had hung them on the wall and waited for me.
It was nice coming home and seeing that and the feeling of being wanted it gave me.
Who knew the stupid b*h would just months later, cheat and break my heart.
But I’m not bitter or anything. :)

Good morning blogsville.
On yesterdays unofficial topic: Interest only/adjustable rate loans were a great product when they first arrived. First, you had to have a 720 score to qualify (assuming financial responsibilty). The big kicker was in the details. The loans were tied into the Libor index which at the time was the most stable index around meaning not much movement in interest rates and when it did it was ususally down. Second, the savings were huge. A home that may have had a note of $3500 would now have one of say $2400 (the larger the loan amount the larger the savings. Now here’s the magic. If you made the original payment (which was advised), in this case $3500, you would have $1100 going to PRINCIPLE in the first month. Thats $$13,200 the FIRST YEAR and $66,000 over the first 5 years. On a 30 yr fixed rate loan your principle would have been reduced by MAYBE $2000 ($25 dollars per month going up a dollor or so each month)over the first 5 years. $66,000 v $2,000 is a no brainer. This is how the loans were packaged initially. Over time buyers only cared about the reduced payments and forgot about the equity build-up part and the product started going to hell. Also, to make the loans more accessible the loans were tied into other more volatile rates besides the LIBOR and thats how we got the wild payment adjustments.
What started out as a great program morphed into the hell that now exists. It went from equity buildup to a nice home AND a mercedes C-Class. LOL
JUst a little info.
Also, this crisis reaches across all ethnic and geographical boundaries. We aren’t the only ones, just the only ones we see. Between higher living costs (gas, food, natural gas) everybody is being pinched in the middle. Income isn’t infinite so if gas costs $100 more a month that money comes from somewhere. Less to save and or spend on necessities. The noose has been tightened.
Other contributing factors are divorce (enough said) and job loss, which is happening more and more each day.
On topic: When I was in the army in germany and dating my ex wife we would go to the field for a month at a time. Are mail usually started arriving after the first week. Every time like clockwork on the first mail call I’d get a bundle of letters (maybe 20) with cards and dabbed in her perfume. Made a guy feel real special. LOL I wrote her some also and she still has them. I threw all mine away as soon as we split. Evrything goes in the trash. Time to start a new chapter in life.
No long azz post tix. I’m Frank Lucas today and you can’t touch me. LMAO

Good morning all. *eyeroll * to the folks who don’t enjoy the topic so they rather hijack it for their own purposes. At least give it half a day to get off the ground.
Anyway, in high school my friends and I were all big letter writers. I saved each letter we wrote each other in 11th and 12th grade. It was nice, because one of my guy friends ended up being my HS sweetheart. He didn’t really know how to approach me, and he wasn’t a good writer. But he knew I was into the letter thing, so I have a lot of cute letters from him as he tried to assimilate into our letter thing. I’m so glad to have those letters because it’s evidence of my first love and how he felt about me.
My college sweetheart and I wrote letters as we went to different schools. He used to send me postcards with pictures of his campus. I loved that because I really felt more connected to where he was.
After that, it became all email based. I did a lot of LDRs, but I saved all of those mushy emails from my fellas.
When I’m unhappy in a relationship, I write down my thoughts. I’m a Sagittarius with no tact, so writing it out first allows me to tone it down before speaking on it. I save that stuff too.

Cemeeli I’m suddenly feeling this “cosmic connection” with you on the love songs tip. :-) I mean, you absolutely nailed it when you said the songs remind you of how YOU feel/felt in a given situation and that’s basically what it’s all about.
On my iPod I have songs like ‘Nights Over Egypt’ (Jones Girls), ‘Don’t Stop This Feeling’ (GQ), ‘I Want Your Love’ (Chic), ‘Secrets’ (Con Funk Shun), Forget Me Nots (Patrice Rushen) and ‘What You Won’t Do For Love’ (Bobby Caldwell).

And when he handed you back the letter, he probably said something like, “OK.”
So what I’m saying is that he got your issue and your bottom line. All of that other extra in the middle was just that, extra. LOL

ARed, the key is being consistent. I keep a book under my couch and one in my nightstand. When I write, I always date and jot the time down. It’s interesting to go back and she what you were feeling on that particular day at that particular time.
To be honest, I looked at him and said “what, you have no comment?” He turned and walked away. I felt extremely foolish, but I knew I had hit a nerve because what I wrote was the truth. LOL…a few years later I filed for divorce.

On topic: I still have letters from exes and letters that I’ve never sent. I intend to send them when I write them, but I end up keeping them, so I can read where I was at that time of my life. Some of that stuff makes me laugh out loud. I do think that letter-writing is very romantic, though I do it more on the computer than my own handwriting. I like cards and notes too, those I do in my own handwriting. I think that people can recognize the thought and effort involved in doing the little things that make someone smile. It can be seen as middle-school by a lot of folks, but that doesn’t take away from the fact that it’s a free, easy way to brighten up somebody’s day. And many days after that, because most people keep things like that and look at them when they are having a hard time.

Ladies, don’t debate it. That is a pure example of the male brain. Women generally use more words than men.
JOKE A husband looking through the paper came upon a study that said women use more words than men. It read, “Men use about 15,000 words per day, but women use 30,000.”
Excited to prove to his wife that he had been right all along when he accused her of talking too much, he showed her the study results.
The wife thought for a while, then finally she said to her husband, “It’s because we have to repeat everything we say.”
The husband said “What?”

DasV Thanks for the ‘dmb’ explanation and actually, I do like them - a lot. I also like John Mayer.
If you don’t have it already, check out Mayer’s CD ‘Heavier Things’ and the song “Somthing’s Missing”. It’s a great, mid-tempo, jazzy sort of tune about how he has all the material things a man could want, except the one thing that matters most - someone to share it all with.
Just another song to which I can relate right about now.

Good Morning, all,
My wife does that journal thing.
I agree with the person that said that he probably just read the beginning and end. I have even done it with my wife. I saw my grandfather do the same thing. Heck, he would walk out in the middle of arguments and come back about 3 or four hours later. He said that he did that in order to keep from doing something that he would regret later. (He grew up in a household where he saw his father beat his mother like Albert Johnson aka Mister did Ms. Celie in “The Color Purple”. Sometimes, its not about being a jerk. Not always, but sometimes.
I’ve read Dale Carnegie’s (last name spelling may be off) How to win friends and influence people. He talks about writing your frustrations down, but you don’t have to always give it to that person. He tells stories of President Abe Lincoln writing angry letters to Generals that lost some the the key battle of the Civil War. Some were found after his death, but he threw most into the fireplace after writing them. He just wanted to get the information off his chest.

Rell Your 10:45 is for real, man, and I understand and respect where you’re coming from.
The whole love letters/love songs thing is significant to me, in part, because I’ve always had a love for words and what they mean. In fact, I minored in english in college and I even dabble every now and then in etymology as a lightweight hobby.
SexyLegg’s post about that long letter she wrote to her ex was DEEP to me, because it was a cry for help. The fact that her ex never responsded is beyond words in describing how ridiculously low that was.
If a woman were to take the initiative to come to me and tell me about problems she’s seeing in our relationship - as opposed to simply packing up and leaving - you’d best believe I’d break out the highlighter and go through ALL 10 pages with a magnifying glass, because the letter is her heart crying out. 10 pages, ya’ll!
I commend on that, Sexy, even though it didn’t acheive the results you wanted. :-)

Off-topic, this just in:
November 14, 2007. Looks like there’s a new addition to the cast of the Broadway show The Color Purple. MediaTakeOut.com has exclusively learned that Fantasia Barrino is likely to be pregnant!! And there’s more, the child reportedly belongs to Atlanta rapper Young Dro.
According to a show insider, Fantasia has been talking openly to the cast about her new condition. The insider explained, “She told [one of the cast members] that she’s pregnant and she’s really excited … Apparently Young Dro, the baby’s father, is happy about it also.”
And the insider claims that while Fantasia isn’t showing yet, she’s definitely acting pregnant. Our tipster told, “She’s walks with her hand on her hip and all of a sudden she’s taken to chewing ice.”
Congrats to Fantasia and Young Dro. We just know they’ll make some adorable kids.

Poppa He talks about writing your frustrations down, but you don’t have to always give it to that person.
I definitely do this. I have stuff I will NEVER let another soul read, until they go through my stuff when I’m dead, then it won’t matter. It is very good therapy to get it all out and read it yourself.
On slow songs… If Bobby Brown can be the King of R&B, then I must be the Queen. I LOVE old school slow songs…give me some Glenn Jones, Donny Hathaway, Commodores, Isley Brothers, etc. any day. I listen to them everyday. I’m not down on Hip-Hop, but I’d rather listen to music that has shaped my life, it’s the music OF my life.

Another Kind of Green…my favorite(among many others)
Sara’s friend she lost her mind She left him and made it look sexy now I fear you won’t be far behind Thinking I’ll be the next to leave I know I might be anxious But I’m still not crazy
And I don’t need another kind of green to know I’m on the right side with you
I used to be the one you saw When crying alone to sad songs But then we go and we hit the wall When nothing has changed and nothing’s wrong You’re not the perfect hand But I don’t hit on nineteen(My favorite line)
And I don’t need another kind of green to know I’m on the right side I’m on the right side with you With you
So go and drift away from me Adopt some new philosophy That doesn’t hold the two of us in mind Move into someone else’s place Stare into some other’s eyes But slowly only come to realize
That you didn’t need another kind of green to know I’m on the right side You’re on the right side I’m on the right side with you Oh, I was on the right side You don’t need to lose to know that you had it good You don’t need to lose it to know that you had it good Know that you had it Know that you had it Don’t need to lose it to know that you had it good.

Alvin, I don’t see how it’s childish. When you have “the talk” and you declare it’s over. Why do you need to continue to speak to that person? Some times distance is exactly what you need so you don’t backpeddal. That’s maturity most people can’t handle.
I bet you have messy break ups. I don’t.

Cemeeli Of course I will. I’ll bring coffee too, this may be a long one.
Rell constant communication is hard for some people…
Some people communicate better in written word than spoken word. If there was enough to say to fill up 10 pages, then apparently there was something that needed to be communicated. It doesn’t take much for someone to validate how you feel by saying “I know that we have issues and I understand the way you feel.” It’s the least he could have done, even if they didn’t discuss it until later. But to walk off without a word of acknowledgement? That’s cold. You wouldn’t do that, would you?

I love writing poetry so my thing is writing how I feel for that special someone via poetry. I feel like its a lot more original and means more to them. When I’m upset at someone though, my poems seem to get a lot more gritty and rough.
Do you think it means more to receive a handwritten letter now that we live in an era of texting and e-mail?
It will sure mean more to me if a man I was interested in was thoughtful enough to write me something original on paper instead of relying on technology. That’s kinda lazy to me.

Right here (…now finger-pointin’) you say that it’s “hard because he’s offering to take you to nice places.” Now zoom up in time to the day when for whatever reason, you come around and give him a call. Now do you see where I am with this? Trust me, you WILL call.

morning folks! Today is my Friday! Well, I’m headed to a conference this afternoon - but its not work!
On topic - I used to get some nice emails from guys but when we break up, I delete them. That prevents me from reminiscing on the good and forgetting about the bad when they want to get back together.
I love slow songs - I have a slow song playlist on my ipod that I fall asleep to each night. Artists like Etta James, The Isley Brothers, a little Angela Bofill, Brian McKnight, Carl Thomas…
But Darrell I don’t see how you work out to slow music. When I work out I’m playing TI, JayZ, Sean Paul… I need some bass to get me through the burn.

altogether you all are an ideal man. and here is my ode to you:
here is my lame attempt to give a compliment, based on the blog time we’ve spent
there is a serious critical side to you but way down deep: compassion..one should not with you try to excuse weakness of mind with many words, you are not moved by passion
you want honesty and candor, you respect the realism that comes with stating facts. your perceptive powers give you zenith capability, cause you know HE has your back
that is what gives you height and articulation gives you physique, would more stay true to who they are and from the heart speak, you would not be SO unique!

sexyL JMO after writing my 10-pager, and getting the same reaction… i was helped to appreciate that i had been ignoring his ‘smoke signals (to steal darrell’s words). he hadnt written it out, but there was on his part an effort to reach out and share, but i was caught up in my own drama,and how i was feelin and missed the critical cues. he mightve handed it back to you out of frustration at the fact that he’d been sayin the same thing and how you felt in that moment was how he’d been feeling for awhile
if he truly didnt care, he wouldnt hv been around for you to give him the letter
really speaks to the different communication styles men and women have. it doesnt excuse his non-response. just hoping it takes a bit of the sting away.

Foots In answer to your 12:05, that depends.
What I mean is that just because my ex is still receiving my calls, that doesn’t mean I should assume she’s not receiving input from someone else, whether be another guy, her friends, or whomever.
Conversely, even if an ex is still receiving my calls, I need to be careful not to misinterpret that she’s still talking to me to mean that her heart has changed, because one does not necessarily equate to the other. Instead of focusing on the fact that she answers the phone when I call or responds to my e-mails and text messages, I’d be more inclined to watch for positive changes in her behavior. Specifically, things she chooses to do of her own volition, as opposed to things she does in resonse to something I do or say.
Make sense?

Tazee Per your 12:14, I guess I’m just deep like that.
Seriously. I’m always in deep thought about something, even when I’m working out. And the smooth instrumentation and lyrics of love songs help me channel my thoughts to where its the thoughts I’m focusing on, not the “grind” of the treadmill or the weight machine.
When I listen to love songs, I’m not even conscious of anything else, because I’m so into what the artist is saying and how it relates to me, that I’m barely aware of my surroundings. Maybe it’s all emphasized more by the fact that I’m single, I don’t know.
What I do know is that love songs have both a theraputic and energizing effect on me when I listen to them, whether I’m in the gym or stuck in traffic.

SexyLeggs while I understand the hurt you experienced at the response to your letter, based on what you knew about your ex - did you expect otherwise? I try my best to be in tune with other folks communication styles and how it relates to mine. I am a very detailed person and when I write something I want to tell it ALL. I’ve folks tell me ‘can I just get the cliff notes version’. In no way would I try to communicate something so serious and personal to someone that doesn’t like to read. Furthermore, I can’t stand to talk on the phone. I try as I might, but if someone wants my undivided attention on a phone call they have to tell me ‘Tazzee, what I’m about to say is very important to me, so I need you to really listen’ otherwise, I’ll hear every other word.
With that said, I’m willing to bet there was a lot going on with both of you before you wrote that letter and while his response was undesirable - if he wasn’t a detailed communicator, didn’t like reading, or had his own issues with the relationship - I can see why he did what he did.
I mean I have some folks where I give them information in bullet points.

November 14, 2007 1:38 PM | Link to this
Tazzee I understand your point in your 1:23 to Sexy, but, if I may be so bold, please allow me to chime in.
When you love someone and you desperately want things to work out between the two of you, it’s incredibly difficult to discern between logic and emotion when something that means so much to you is on the brink of falling apart.
I’m sure I’m not telling you anything you don’t already know. However, my point is that when yo say to Sexy “based on what you knew about your ex - did you expect otherwise?” it’s not as simple as that because of the obvious depth of love she had for this person. How deeply she loved him was borne out by that 10-page letter she wrote him.
So, again, I don’t necessarily think the point is one of what Sexy should have expected him to do (or not do), as much as it is one of “heart over head”. People like to say that love will make you do some crazy things, and as true as that is, love will also make you not do some sensible things - one of which is THINK.
Now, I don’t mean to speak for Sexy, but I’m willing to risk that she was in such an emotional state at that point that she was thinking with her heart, not her brain. I’ll bet that as she reflects back on the very moment when she wrote that 10-page letter, she’d probably admit that it was if her hands had a mind of their own, because it was all just pouring our from her HEART.
And sometimes when your heart is doing all the talking, it’s tough for anything or anyone else to bring logic into the situation. So, I’m willing to give Sexy the benefit of the doubt on this one (not that she needs it.)
Just my two cents.

Similarly I can’t listen to praise music while I work out because I get caught up and when I praise Him, I cry. Have you (well not necessarily you, Darrell - being the manly man that you are) started crying while going full blast on an elliptical? I thought I was going to pass out the last time it happened.
So for me while working I need Sean Paul telling me to Shake that thing, or TI’s Bring Em Out (that will forever be my Falcons theme song) or Jill Scott’s Hate on Me.

I don’t want to talk to you.
I don’t want to hear your voice.
I don’t want to think about you.
I don’t want you to picture your face.
I don’t want to know how your life’s going
I don’t want to know what and who you’re doing it with.
I don’t want to miss you.
I don’t want to feel I need you.
I don’t want to feel empty without you.
I don’t want to think about how you used to touch me
I don’t want to feel your tainted hands.
I don’t want the negativity you bring to my life.
I don’t want to keep deciphering whether your words are true of false.
I don’t want to hear the excuses and all the crazy lies.
I don’t want to be your lover, not your friend, definitely not your wife.
I don’t want to be a part of your world.
I don’t want to really hate you but sometimes I do.
I don’t want any memory of you or how I was your fool.
I JUST DON’T WANT YOU.
You couldn’t give me 100% so what do I need you for.
Yes you were a waste of time, and I ain’t giving you no more.
I just want to take a deep breathe and blow you away.
No more me and you, you and me, us or we.

BlueK I’ll just say this - when a dude really peaks my interest, a lot of that goes out the window in the beginning I can talk on the phone for hours getting to know someone. But just idle chatter - naw, I can’t do that. But for my loved ones I do. Just the other day I was on the phone with my best friend and she said ‘are you on the computer?’ I responded ‘now you know I’m always doing SOMETHING else if I’m on the phone’ and she said ‘yeah, but when you’re on the computer I can always tell’ - to me that’s part of knowing who you love and accepting them for who they are. After that exchange, I stopped what I was doing, sat down and engaged in some convo.
Darrell and what I stated above speaks to your post - if SexyLeggs had to write a 10-page letter, things weren’t all peachy keen in the relationship where he would be ‘heart over head’ loving her at that point. And THAT is what I mean. When you love someone you sacrifice, but you also know who you’re dealing with and are ready to accept those instances when they act according to who they are - not what you want at that time.
and on that note - I’m gone folks!
GO FALCONS!!

Tazzee Have you (well not necessarily you, Darrell - being the manly man that you are) started crying while going full blast on an elliptical? No (but only because I don’t do the elliptical.) LOL!
On a serious note, though, I fully understand how listening to love songs can be somewhat detrimental to a certain extent when you’re single, because they can contribute to generating all kinds of thoughts and emotions inside of you, but there’s not always an outlet available to you to deal with them.
That said, however, I’ve found love songs are also a help to me in that they remind me of certain mistakes I’ve made and the consequences of not putting the other person first. For example, take the song I talked about in my very first post today (“I Won’t Hold You Back” by Toto). Consider the chorus, which says: “You know I won’t hold you back now. The love we had just can’t be found.”
To think of having to say to someone “the love we HAD, just CAN’T be found” is something I don’t ever want to say or have said to me.

Thanks for your good responses, guys. I’ve heard it both ways and just wanted to know what you thought.
One thing that caught my attention in the posts I read since I got back from lunch is “anticipated response”. Asking myself “What response would I want this person to have if I did/said __?” and “What response do I believe this person would give me?” has kept me from wasting my time doing and saying a lot of things that would otherwise fall on deaf ears.
Not only that (not getting the anticipated response), sometimes it would have unwisely exposed gaping wounds if I really cared or made somebody THINK I really cared when I really didn’t. And not to mention, if it’s a letter or email, nine times out of ten if they think it’s off the wall, they will show it to other people, if only to talk about how crazy you are. I know, cause I’ve done it and I get forwarded emails from folks talking about “look at what this sorry simp sent me”. Voice mail messages too. It’s been a good guideline so far.
