"To be married means we belong with someone else, that we are no longer always alone, ... that there is a parallel presence and spirit in all that we undertake. We are bridled, connected, attended. We move in the midst of the aura, the welcoming soul-filling presence of another human being...
Because we know we are loved, we can step beyond our fears; because we have been chosen, we can transcend our insecurities. We can make mistakes, knowing we will not be cast out; take missteps, knowing someone will be there to catch us. And because mistakes and missteps are the stuff of change, of expansion, in marriage we can expand to our fullest capacity; in marriage we can heal."
quoted from Weddings from the Heart, Daphne Kingma
"Expect your every need to be met, expect the answer to every problem, expect abundance on every level, expect to grow spiritually. You are not living by human laws. Expect miracles and see them take place. Hold ever before you the thought of prosperity and abundance, and know that doing so sets in motion forces that will bring it into being."
a very beautifuk quote, if only it were true I am 42 and have been through to many relationships and have to ask the question ;why do lesbians not take relationships seriously"? what is the average relationship? 2 years about? that is SAD. I don't understand why is it so easy for most to just up and leave even when nothing serious is wrong.
Is it a game? do some like to see just how many people they can hurt? or how many relationships they can have? It is like they get tired of the same ole so move on, thats not real love. i am so tired of being hurt, faling in love and making that commitment to wait for the ball to drop.
Love is not a playing house game and you are suppose to be there for each other and work out any issues, but it seems 99% of lesbians cannot do this.
i se it all the time and it really makes me wish I was straight. statistics show that straight relationships last longer.
and dont bother getting married because when your spouse decides to hit the road, that "fake" piece of paper means nothing to her, it isn't real in her eyes. I am not trying to be negative or mean but I am tired of being hurt so please, dont tell someone its forever or get married if you know in your heart that you are not ready for that.
I'm sorry you've been hurt in your relationships! I hope you will find someone who can make a commitment and stick with it.

You're welcome! I'm happy to hear that you and other lesbian couples you know are having long-term successful relationships.
