Still, that's something most people couldn't just up and do, so congrats on working towards that! (Maybe see you at the WDW '07 Marathon? That's what I'm training for right now... maybe I should start another thread for this... )
OH please do, we could find a charity and plan a sponsership program for other MiceChatter to sponser us. 07 is a very realistic goal for me to be ready for a marathon. If I can make a marathon work- I can make a relationship work too!
*Muah* MegarooFifi, lemme know when you get that tread generated and where and lets see how we can coordinate training, events and sponserships-etc.
First posting as a new member. Found this topic interesting as I am still looking for my Mr. Right. I am finding that the older you get the harder it is to meet a man who shares the same interests (eg. anything Disney).
I have also asked the same question of my happily married or attached friends, "how did you know he/she was the one?" The most common response was it just felt right (to tell you the truth, I have no clue what that means).
Maybe my standards are too high? Read some interesting stories and good advices in this thread. Will take many of them to heart.

I have an idea of what they mean. But that is one of those stories best shared over a beer. (Lot's of beer...that story involves me doing a few stupid things. :botox: )
Maybe you and ah schucks can get together and share your beer stories and then you can tell them to us!
Maybe, one day, we ca all get together and share stories which require alcohol for the telling. I have little doubt that some here have some great ones.
Becides, no one would want to hear mine (I hope someone believes this...). They are all of sadness, depression, and sometime large amounts of stupidity.
<nods> And mine need to stay buried! It is hard to maintain a reputation that one is cold as ice if it becomes known that one has flown a girl cross-country and taken her to DL in a failed... uhm...yes...well...
Man, could I tell you some stories about my brother, trust me, the things he has done for women will make you feel like Casanova! It's not a bad thing to be softhearted and romantic, you just have to find the girl that will appreciate it I know it probably sounds empty, but there is someone out there who will appreciate how sweet you are, you just have to resolve not to settle for anything less!

<nods> I do believe I need to find a few things first. I need to get to the point where I am, at the least, happier with myself. I would also like to find a place to call home. I have lived in 4 states in 4 years (NY, VA,ID, and now back to CA) and rolling stones do gather no moss (but they do collect a lot of junk. I swear it multiplies in the closet), which often leaves me feeling adrift and somewhat disinclined to form attachments, as ripping them up and having people disappear from your life hurts, especially as it takes me so long to make friends.
Now...as to THAT girl - well, let me just say I had an idea of how things would go on that trip, and it is a GREAT thing that things did not work out, but one of the better memories I have is when I asked her "Hey, on the trip to CA, would you like to go to Disneyland"?

Gwyren, I totally know how you feel, I at one point lived in three states (AZ, OR, CA) in less than 10 months. I think you're on the right path, you seem to know what you want to do. It's tough to form attachments when you live the nomadic life, I've been in CA three years now and only now am starting to be willing to form attachments in my own life. Keep your head up, things will work out
To make this post back on topic, I'll say that I really feel for you guys who have moved so much! I can't imagine moving so much - I've lived in the same area for over 20 years (we moved here when I was VERY little ) and moved out on my own last year. That moving experience was enough to make me never want to move again! Hopefully things settle down for you, so you have a chance to really let relationships grow and develop....
I love moving... new places, new faces, just a change. I've already lived in two diffrent places (and towns!) in the two years I have lived out here and will be moving yet again in another year (following my job). That's one of the good things about having no attachments! Dunno if it makes up for all the bad things, though. *ponders*
Good morning, son
In twenty years from now
Maybe we'll both sit down and have a few beers
And I can tell you 'bout today
And how I picked you up and everything changed
It was pain
Sunny days and rain
I knew you'd feel the same things... sigpic

Yes. I could not have packed up and headed back to school if I had been attached. I may not have been able to take the opportunity to move to Idaho either when I had that.
I'm one of those casual "just see what happens" people... If something does happen, then GREAT!
BTW... I'm a 23 year old female who loves Disney theme parks and baseball. What a nutty combo, eh?
Im gonna assume you like the Cardinals, I just wanted to say enjoy my favorite teams best pitcher Mark Mulder. I'm pretty sure you'll win the World Series if he stays healthy.
My husband told me that he would marry me after I knew him for like a week.
Clearly, he was right.
