While some may know me as being complacent, maybe humorous or obnoxious, I usually prefer to think of myself as very reserved, stoic, and rather pretentious. I don't completely like that about myself, but it's my prefered self-description. But I'm beginning to realize that I'm a lot less that way than I thought; that, while still very much an introvert, I am more extroverterd than I ever would have thought possible. I think I'm changing.

I have learned that I am a good husband, a good father, and a good listener, But at the same time, I have also learned that I am far from perfect, and I cannot please everybody.

I have long been looking for my soulmate. I figured she's out there somewhere. Lately I've begun thinking that if she is indeed out there, she just might be too far out there - I feel more than an hours drive is too far for the time I have available. Now, more recently I have come to realize it's not that I am not able to find her, it's more that she's not interested in me. I'm not the good catch I thought I might be. I have a lot of good qualities about myself, but I don't have those qualities most women are looking for: good looks, great sense of humor, belief in God and now it seems I've grown too old too. I'm hurting, been hurting for many years and I don't see brightness up the road either.
I can't even develope a close friendship with anyone. There is one I have been talking to for over a year now, but she is still very distant - I feel that while I am interested in a closer friendship, she is keeping our relationship very superficial. There's not much connection, we're just lunch buddies and I'm there whenever she needs a helping hand or an ear to hear her cries. She's not there for me at all. And after all this time, I'm begining to tire of it.

I learned I am very selfish. I love my husband and two small children but I crave alone time and I am still "in love" with my first love - and I'm selfish because I offered to have an affair with him though we are both married with children. While he did not take me up on the offer and clearly does not feel the same way, this experience has frightened me into realizing on the depth of my selfishness.

It can be a good thing when you change, just as long as you like what you are changing into. I have learned that i am overly trusting with everyone I meet, but i'm okay with that because I know now that I should keep my guard up a little more so I don't get hurt.

I've learned that you cannot depend on someone else to make you happy. You have to achieve that yourself. The other person is just a bonus.
