I'm still youngish 30....been in love 3 times in my life. First time didn't end too well at all. Ever since on the other 2 occasions love has come along I have run from it. There have been several casual flings along the way, maybe this is my way of dealing with it.
Just wondering if anyone else here is in the same situation and suggestions....counselling not an option, not willing to go there.
I think everyone deals with it in their own way. I've personally taken time off in the past, before I married, to be by myself for awhile before dating. I think if you're not afraid of being alone, without dating on rebounds or such, it's healthy. Too many times, people jump right back into a relationship (flings included) before giving themselves some room to breathe.

Alright alright.....i'll be Dr. Phill for a sec
Just bcs you've had a few bad experiences with the L word doesn't mean it's not worth it......I've fallen off my dirt bike so many times and the last time I almost broke my knee but ya know what.....i'll always get back on lol
seriously tho.....don't rush into stuff, take your time when your getting to know ppl and if real love does happen then give it your all because at the end of the day what else is there? I'd rather deal with pain if it came my way bcs i'd be able to look in the mirror and know that I gave it all I had.......stuff happens but you get over it and move on.....
It all depends on how you see your life 30 years down the road. Will it be a life with someone you care or a life of running away from someone/something? If you're "peaceful" by yourself, then fine. But if you want someone to hold, then embrace love with all its pain and joy.
