When you wish upon a star

•August 4, 2010 • Leave a Comment

When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires
Will come to you

If your heart is in your dream
No request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star
As dreamers do

Fate is kind
She brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of
Their secret longing

Like a bolt out of the blue
Fate steps in and sees you through
When you wish upon a star
Your dreams come true

Moving, leaving, arriving, a new life

He’s Just Not That Into You (quotes from the book)

Cut your losses and don’t waste your time . Why stay in some weird dating limbo when you can move on to what will surely be better territory? Don’t want to hear it? Fine. Here’s the answer you’re looking for, “Hang in there, baby. He’s not the loser everybody’s telling you he is. If you wait and keep your mouth shut and call at exactly the right time and anticipate his moods and have no expectations about communication or your own sexual needs, you can have him!” But please don’t be surprised if he dumps you or continues to drag you through a completely unsatisfying relationship.

He is a man made up entirely of your excuses. And the minute you stop making excuses for him, he will completely disappear from your life.

Men, for the most part, like to pursue women. We (men) like not knowing if we can catch you. We feel rewarded when we do.

Don’t let the “honeys” and the “babys” fool you. His sweet nothings are exactly that. They are much easier to say than “I’m just not that into you.” Remember, actions speak louder than, “There’s no cell reception where I am right now.”

Calling when you say you’re going to call is the very first brick in the house you are building of love and trust. If he can’t lay this one stupid brick down, you ain’t never gonna have a house, baby. And it’s cold outside.

He will always be able to play the “friend” card on you. He only has to be responsible for the expectations of a friend, rather than the the far greater expectations of a boyfriend. He’s got the ultimate situation: a great friend with all the benefits of a girlfriend, whom he can see or not see whenever he wants to. He may be one of your closest friends, but I’m sorry to say … as a boyfriend, he’s just not that into you.

I don’t want to be “sort of dating” someone. I don’t want to be “kinda hanging out” with someone. I don’t want to spend a lot of energy suppressing my feelings so I appear uninvolved. I want to be involved. I want to be sleeping with someone I know I’ll see again because they’ve already demonstarted to me that they’re trustworthy and honorable — and into me.

Don’t be flattered that he misses you. He should miss you. You’re deeply missable. However, he’s still the same person who just broke up with you. Remember, the only reason he can miss you is because he’s choosing, every day, not to be with you.

It’s very tempting when you really want to be with someone to settle for much, much less — even a vague pathetic facsimile of less — than you would have ever imagined. Remember always what you set out to get and please don’t settle for less. These guys exist because there are a lot of women out there who allow them to.

Hey girl. Put down the penis, put your clothes back on, and go directly to your best friend’s house. Do not find an excuse to stay. Do not think that because of all the crazy hotness of it all, it now means that you’re meant to be together. Yes, break up sex does seem like a good idea, because hey, it’s nice to have sex with someone you have these dramatic feelings about. It makes it all, well, dramatic. But now you know. It confuses everything and makes you separate sex and emotions. So now you don’t ever have to make that mistake again. Got it? He’s into the very-bad-idea-that-masquerades-as-a-good-idea, breakup sex. Over and out.

He’s sniffing for something better, and when he doesn’t find it, he gets lonely and comes “home.” It’s not that he’s so into you. It’s that he’s so not into being alone. Don’t give him the chance to break up with you for the fourth time. (Even the idea of it sounds beneath you, doesn’t it?) Reset your breakup maximum to one and move on.

Cut him off. Let him miss you.

He doesn’t need to be reminded that you’re great.

There’s a guy out there who’s going to be really happy that you didn’t get back together with your crappy ex-boyfriend.

No matter how powerful and real your feelings may be for someone, if that person cannot fully and honestly return them and therefore actively love you back, these feelings mean nothing.

Being lonely … being alone … for many people … sucks. I get it, I get it, I get it. But still I have to say that yes, my belief is that being with somebody who makes you feel shitty or doesn’t honor the person you are is worse.

Life is hard enough as it is without choosing someone difficult to share it with.

You deserve to be with someone who is nice to you all the time.

365 Days; Day 25 -41 ~ this period of my life is called interviews

•February 24, 2010 • Leave a Comment

Last week I had 9 interviews. The last month has been like that. Working 9-5 and then having interview during lunch and right after the work day finishes, 1 h per interview, out in the cold, because I had no place quiet enough to conduct an interview. Last Wednesday I had 4 interviews in 3 languages. So I guess it’s safe to say that I am H A P P Y that I can say that tonight I signed the contract. It’s over, I did home run and I cannot wait for my new life to begin :) I’ll tell you more about it when I have moved (4th time in one year) and set up everything in the new country. In the mean time I’ll humour you with small nonsense like finding an apartment and stuff. LOL

Before I forget, this is were I live now, pretty isn’t it?

365 Days; Day 23-24 a really nice weekend

So he didn’t take the phone when I was standing outside, calling to get the code to open the door. I figured he was busy or didn’t hear the phone, but I didn’t care to wait outside in the cold until he called back so I went to the cafe next door to enjoy a glass of white wine. Also to calm my nerves. Of course he called just when I had gotten my glass (like 4 minutes after) and he said 100 times that he was really sorry for not hearing the phone. I asked if he wanted to come down and have a glass of wine with me, and he said that he was busy making us dinner so we decided I was gonna drink the glass and then come up.

 So 5 minutes after I headed up to him and the cat that was there the last time followed me up the stairs and in his door. So cute, it’s not his but I guess the cat likes him. He is the perfect host, offering me white wine and snacks immediately after I had entered the door. Then he continued to make dinner, he had prepared everything so it was ready when I came. We had some wine and snacks and chatted about everything. It’s always this great atmosphere when we’re together, we’re nervous both of us but we still feel like we can be open and talk about everything.

Dinner got served, he had set the table and the dinner was friggin AWESOME. So long since I’ve had such a great dinner, honestly. He keeps buying herbs for everything, so he had bought fresh herbs to have over the rice. Impressive. He told me he’ll give me the recipe and I’ll share it with you guys.

After dinner we just hung around like usual, discussing music and looking at my iPhone. It was then he said we needed to take pics, so as you see, pretty drunk both of us. Lol. I love our closeness; he’s an affectionate guy which I love.

The Secret. Have you read it? I am sure that there are a lot of other books on this topic and I find this particular book to be just the right size and just the right amount of happiness.

And the theory works! It really does!

Here is what I am grateful for today. All my good friends, the people helping me through my most challenging time, my family, my good health and my cat still being here, the beautiful view over the river from my appartment, the garden, my iPhone, a great job soon coming my way, all the great companies I have interviews with and the great contract, all the great memories, being good at skiing and sports and running, I love running.

Trying to fix everything at once, moving is tough and especially when you move somewhere you need to, not where you want to move. Trying to make the best of it and thinking it’s only for a while, I will get a better job again and I will live in a house with a garden.

One of many stars
