    I usually get bored of people after some time, but this time I got bored of a girl much sooner than expected. We did not even make it into the new year.
    I suck at relationships.

    How about you?

    i just find a whole lot of things so much more interesting that i usually don't even think about it. i mean i wish everyone happiness and everything, but the kind of world we all have to live is just a hell of a lot more fascinating to me, how things work, how things could work and so on.

    i really wish i could live in a world where we didn't have to depend so much on having anything to do with anyone. i think if we did, i would then be able to appreaciate everyone a whole lot better then i do.

    Such things happen... Maybe there's not something wrong with you, but with the people who bore you...

    I'm getting better at my relationship. Kevin got me a book called "How To Communicate" for Christmas so I'm working on it and he's being really good and doing the exercises with me.

    Other than that, I also suck at relationships. I always feel like I'm a burden if I call or talk about MY life. I want to talk about their life and their issues. I'm going to say I get that because of my mother-she always talks about her life, so I feel like I have to compensate for her and rarely talk about my life.

    Well I am not so good at relationships myself.

    Not that I get bored, its just I travel so much it is hard to make time to get bored with someone.

    It must be nice staying in one place.

    I have no doubt you will find that ultimate babe. Just keep looking!

    It's not boredom, it's instinct. Birds must migrate periodically.

    I get bored of acquaintances really fast. I only have relationships which blossom when a very special connection has been lit. And then I dont really get bored, because I love to have someone to care for, and care about me. But other people around me? I get sooo tired of and I feel bad sometimes, but its just the truth

    oh my god. I haven't been able to have a relationship last longer than 3 months in the past year and a half. I get bored so quickly. in fact it's been like that all my life, pretty much.

    ok no it's just that I can't develop strong feelings for people like that. but in friendship it's different. I am a better friend to my friends than any of my friends are to me.. if that's understandable.. but I'm really picky with people and if someone disappoints me I will cut them off in a finger snap.

    I can tell within the first few seconds how a relationship would go, and leave it alone if it wouldn't work. Its just how I see people... is perhaps why I've been in a long term relationship that could have lasted as long as I endured - but along that time I changed, and my significant other requirements changed... change is much harder to see - anyone can change, but its NEVER a good idea to base a relationship on that.

    Not easy to find that special connection... but no point in wasting time on what won't work out.

    I have no expectations and I am definitely not high maintenance. may have been at a time I was troubled but the trouble's over. I just don't get a thrill off people easily.

    in fact I was reproached to be too careless even. to let my man free. wow that's indeed real horrible.. if he wanted a gluestick that's definitely not me.

    This gets me to wondering if you're not expecting too much of your partners by expecting them to cure your boredom. Finding ways around being bored is not their job- it's yours... and you're placing alot of pressure on the relationship before it even has the chance of getting off the ground.
