Embark!
How do you feel when embarking on a new path in life?
Whether it's a new job, a new location, or maybe changing status from married to single, or single to married?
Do you feel butterflies, fear, doubt...or tingly with excitement at just the thought of a new journey not quite knowing what's around the next bend for you?
Do you ever kinda freak when you realize a relationship is getting near a commitment phase or are you an "all in" kind of person?
Does it depend more on the situation and other parties involved, or do you have a set pattern you seem to follow?

Re: Embark!
I'm an embrace change kind of person. The thing I love about my present career is I'm never doing the same thing every day. One day I could be planning an event dressed to the nines, the next day cleaning out a filing cabinet in a pair of jeans, I could have VIP's drop in the office or not see anyone for days. I'm not big on mundane, repetitive stuff. As for relationships I'm good at making friends and keeping them for a lifetime but I don't exclude making new ones...as for love relationships I've been in one so long that I can't imagine how hard it would be to walk away.

Re: Embark!
no pattern.. but i LOVE the feeling of starting over again, from square one. i'm truly a loner type deep down and i get an almost rush from the "struggle" to get back on top of life. guess its just the challenge itself. recently i've felt the urge stronger than ever to up and go again but decided to try the opposite... try the settle down family path and see how that pans out.
sad part is i cant see myself without these wandering tendencies, just sort of the defining part of my character... and i know it has the potential to hurt those around me someday.

Re: Embark!
Settling down and taking the family path...is the biggest journey, and it's a helluva of a struggle.
We romantasize falling in love, spending the rest of your life with one true soul mate, when you find the "right" person it's all easy. But it's the biggest, toughest job you'll ever undertake because it takes deep committment.
I'm sure you have the strength to do it, sure you could "hurt" others, but it means that now you have made some sort of commitment that leaves you vulnerable to having your heart ripped out too.
With all that, it is still the ultimate journey, just having a partner in life which you will give AND recieve ....here's the big prize....
unconditional love

Re: Embark!
Well said Chazzy. There is no greater risk than giving your heart to someone. If you want to wander and you have a partner you love ask them to go on the journey with you. The person that makes the choice to spend their life with us fell in love because of who we are...you can never change someone's inherent soul and you shouldn't want to. Each of you brings something different to the table and should encourage those feelings in order to grow and be...I've grown and changed so much over the last ten years I barely recognize who I was back then. Life is about evolving and if you are with someone the biggest struggle of all is evolving together.

Re: Embark!
I have a very strong character, and don't act like anything will worry/bother me, but deep down, i do get nervous about change and i don't like it much. I find the thought of starting a new relationship, scary and sometimes i think it's easy not to.
I don't like to feel scared or worried, but with what i've had thrown at me so far in life, i'm sure whatever's round the corner, no matter how scary,  i'll face it with my head held high.
