mitch: Good point, the vibes worked really well for you; maybe they’ll work for me, too?

miss anon: Life *IS* defined by ups and downs … and, the other night at the hotel was definitely a down. So, thanks for the support.

mamachristy: “How’s that for vibes?” That’s really really really really really sweet. Thanks!

jay: I would **FORCE** you to be my best friend and hang out with me all of the time if I lived in London or you lived in New York. :)

anonymous: “It’s not giving up hope, it’s putting hope on indefinite hold.” I never thought of it that way before. You may have a point …

surly girl: Thanks and I hope you’re right. :)

EVERYONE: Big huge hugs and sloppy wet kisses to each and every one of you. I honestly got a little teary eyed as I read all of your words of encouragement. Blogging, it’s cheaper than therapy. (And, more fun …)

hang in there – there’s someone for everyone and you’ll meet him one day…

I think you’ve got the right attitude though – if it’s a matter of choosing between deadbeats and psychos, and not dating at all, I’d rather be single every time.

Me… I treasure the in-between relationship periods, because it allows me to be a TOTAL slut.

I’m not recommending it for you. But you know, it’s something to think about :-p

~~~Send a successful man to Stolie~~~

~~~Most of all, send a man to Stolie who will worship her the way she deserves – like the goddess that she is~~~

(How’s that for some vibes?)

fret not, we’ve all been there and who knows when our time will come again to be in that “hope-less” state. life is defined by its ups and downs, n’est-ce pas?

for now, consider this: your self-imposed man-diet is like a cleansing fast; purifying your system from all the past pollution and getting ready for someone good to make his way into your life – a little to the left, a little to the right.

all that other junk, that haphazard dating, that ego-stroking, that carnal pleasure, it was empty. sure, it provided a few laughs and some distractions along the way but in reality, it was just not quite cutting it. (this is how i’ve felt about my past, at any rate). and earlier this year, i, too, went on a man-diet and have made a little room for hopefully the one i think is WORTHY to stay on with me, for a little longer than a distraction … in the end, we just all wanna come HOME already.

as mitch said, good vibes being sent your way, stolie. :)

Do what I do, though! Never give up. We WILL find them!
