When you're a strong person, maybe too strong?

Hi all. Regular member on here. I like to try and help people because I'm very familiar with a lot of posts, I've been through a lot of the same issues.

Having had a failed marriage and been on my own for three years I've become very independent and strong. And very much enjoy this.

Very rarely I'll have an off day. Like today, no reason, just feel a bit deflated. But never feel like off loading to friends and family because I don't like to show I'm having a weak moment. Pride I suppose.

Anyone one else feel like this?

loveyoutothemoon nah I'm not being given the run around - just that I had a flurry of messages Tues/Wed from one that seemed to imply that this one had a personality and brain (although I've been misled that way before!). Anyway I thought we might meet up soon, (I don't get into protracted exchanges via the www) but he's gone quiet. Not going to lose any sleep over it, mind!

That's the best thing to do handy don't lose any sleep over it. Sounds very familiar, the going quiet. They can come across so differently online aswell to what they are like in reality. My advice is to meet someone quickly and find out what they are like in the flesh, and then move on. Then you don't dwell on it.
