thank you.

yes. in real life, people are always battling the conflict between need for intimacy and an equally powerful need for independence. men are less evolved and feel more conflict. also they are ALWAYS looking for FREE sex. they call it sharing and caring, but it's really just FREE SEX. i hate to put it so harshly, but that is what it is. they will gladly pay for it, but if they can schmooze ya, they will. i am old and very cynical. please, in the future, don't let your hormonal need over ride your precious self protection of your soul and psyche. men are not wired to give a flying freak about them until much later on down the line, when his entire motivation is to get you off the market, to keep you away from other men by offering something tangible called monetary security AKA marriage. when you give it away, you CANNOT EXPECT ANY RETURN FOR THE COMMODITY AKA your vagina. it was a GIFT AKA Expect NOTHING IN RETURN.

dollars to donuts, he will be back..."we clean up and now it's time to learn." this is the drill.

men are liars and it's always about having sex with you. if they can't figure out one way, they will use another. so payment is either by marriage first, or cash. don't take less than $500 per.

Ruh roh, Venus in Scorpio. Cancer heaven. bank your fires. go out with other people. be alone. Cancer men are hell on earth until they are making love to you and then they are heaven. so, i pity you. i've been in an off on off for a year 6 year affair that i had to tell him to leave me alone after his shenanigans, couldn't even THINK of him for a year, now suddenly he is all in my face in my dreams. one year ago this week i told him to shove it. now of course, i regret it, but he's getting older. 28! his chart is all about freedom. it's hopeless. but i'm a committment phobe too so it may work! he's not going anywhere and neither am i. no other woman will be able to stand him so i may be able to capture his snarky sexy self again. who knows? he's fun to think about. and hotter than any other guy in town. sigh. now off to ride my bike!

you are an amazing writer. we should all have your skills and clarity. don't change a word!

gluttion for punishment and a fool you are. . ask yourself why you love to be abused. that is your answer.

i know this sounds hard, but the first thing you have to do is release your emotional attachment to them. they are only "things". very hard to do, but when you pray for release, the feeling of peace will astound you, and that may be the lesson here. try to stop yourself from thinking one of your friends may have taken them. when you get them back, you will feel guilty for thinking that. your friends love you and don't want to see you suffering. then, realize that love is eternal and your engagement should be able to endure this loss. then, with all that emo work done, the outcome will be a pleasant surprise when you get them back. you will be so grateful for having evolved that your higher self will feel elevated more than the material object could have ever given you. that is why you come to this site, to grow spiritually. it is hard to be spiritual. if it were easy, everyone would do it and there would be no killing or wars. no poverty or greed. so let it be a blessing to you in a weird sort of way and know you can survive any material loss. there will be more in your young life, as there is in all of ours. it is very difficult but you will survive. your mother loves you. your emotional well being and safety is far more important to her than her rings. she would give away hundreds of rings to keep you safe and happy. give your mother some love and thank her for being your mother. all this will heal your soul. the rings will find their way back to you, and if they don't, just bless them with love and move on. hugs i feel for you. ~

instead of posting a long story about how my cancer fiend, uh i mean friend worked my head/heart over for 5 years w/ aforementioned character traits, ad nauseum, i am going to write a reply email to the lovely, sane, mature, Leo man i am now relating to, one w/ assets, a child, a life and a brain. Good Luck to all of you wonderful dear women i have been following for months on this forum. i can tell you, the cancer man (gorgeous, sexy, oh so uber-spiritual they think, what a joke) will ruin your life. they lie, cheat, are totally narrcissistic and self servingly self involved using CADS, and are the most horrible of all the signs. The End.
