First congrats on beginning the "bettering yourself" process, however such a small amount of time has passed for any real changes. When I read you message, it seems that this distant thing really wasn't your idea? Could be wrong and doesn't really matter. But it appears the reason you are trying to "better yourself" is only for this specific girl; however, the only way you will really better yourself is when you realize that you need to do this for you. Rushing back into something that isn't working gets you nothings, but taking the time to realize you weakness and improve yourself will last you a lifetime!!

Because if she has half a brain she'll move on to someone else who can give her what she needs. I can't tell you have many toads I had to go thru in order to find my prince. But he was well worth the wait.

I have a question though, what if the woman gives up a prince because she prefers a toad because she never experienced one?

Geofferson-san, you may end up with warts!

Warts?

Why?

It was a popular myth in the old days that you can get warts from toads. Its not true, we know that's bogus- nowadays. Warts are actually benign tumors of the epidermis caused by a virus. The virus responsible is the human papillomavirus, a double-stranded DNA-virus. Which isn't very good at all in my opinion. I don't like warts! There ugly.

But why give up a prince when they are hard to find? While toads are everywhere! Look in any muddy smelly lake. They're there. Whereby a prince, they may be hard to find, but priceless and precious to find. Sort of like fishing in the ocean. You want a great catch, so you have to throw the littles ones back in, until you get lucky enough and catch the big and best one. LOL.

That's a comforting thought..

I thought I found my Princess but she left me and I am far from a toad and have no warts LOL..

Ahhhh, well never mind, Love will find us all again... :)

Your princess obviously doesn't know how to fish! And settled for trying to catch toads, instead.

I'd wait for her to contact you. If she decides that she misses you she will. Then you can show her how you've changed and not be so needy and clingy the next time around. Yes, she is only a part of your life, not your whole life.
