Why are you 'Glad'?..are you referring to the alternative??


Both my sons, my partner and I all found our true loves at the first attempt. The alternative would be that we had not found our life partners that time and would have been disappointed until we did. It is not difficult to understand why I would be glad about that.

I am also pleased that you did not experience the disappointment of thinking you had found someone, only to be let down. Finding someone to love, who returns the compliment, is something to be happy about whether it is yourself or someone else.

What I am not so happy about is the implication that people who have not yet been as successful in love as us are, somehow, inferior, promiscuous or perverted. Not saying that is what you mean but some of the posts that have been floating around recently seem to be heading in that direction.

Cheers
