I just will remind the women that it's all about YOU, not him, and if you stay focused you are fine, plus there is always another angel to take you higher..in time.

I've known all too many "Desperate Housewives" - if that's what is meant by "freaking out about men" - I can dig that. It's a colossal freak show sometimes.

PS: Sylvia Browne is a Libra w/Sag Moon. I don't agree with everything she says any more than I agree with any other person trying to make an honest attempt to be helpful in this world. Her nails freak me the f@ck out - they make her look like a serpent to me - but the real reason why I pay attention to her is because MOST of what she says resonates with me. That is to say, she'll say things I've already thought of myself. So she gets my attention. The woman's been on a very long and tiresome path. I admire all the energy she is able to draw forth in order to preservere with her "vision" for Spirituality. Not as easy as it looks.

Ah ... the old psychic chill, eh? Hee hee ... thank you for your kind words.

As for the right/left brain connections, I stick to my guns by simply stating your source.

Sometimes I hesitate to explain away human behavior with purely scientific reasoning, hence, why "psychobiology" is so interesting. One could deduce that since there are "more brain connections", that this is the reason why women are natural multi-taskers.

HOWEVER - as we've discussed here before, not all women feel those strong maternal feelings, and this does not make them worse at multi-tasking, necessarily. Perhaps the woman's ability to multi-task is due to just plain love. We all know what crazy things we are willing to do for another when we are crazy in love! - In that case, it would have more to do with hormones and chemicals than neurological wiring.

So for now, back to the blackboard ... I think us newer versions of humanoids are a culmination of "wiring" as well as a product of survival of the fittest.

As for why we have more connections to the eye, as I'm sure you know, the majority of the brain is devoted EXCLUSIVELY to eyesight to begin with! I'm thinking if women have EVEN MORE, then, this would help explain why we can sometimes be more perceptive of another's emotions. The concept of androgeny has always been interesting to me, and why sometimes a man feels like he is stuck in a woman's body, or vise versa.

Just food for thought. Good food!

Don't get me wrong, I was also one of those girls freaking out. I just got out of a long and difficult relationship that took all my time and emotions for the last two years. It's been a couple of weeks since the seperation and I still do see the guy sometimes, but overall I feel liberated and am just enjoying the freedom.

It's been so long since I've been single that I forgot the joys of just simple living. I have freedom to do design my life according to what I want now. I have so much more peace and less mental baggage to carry around now. True, there are times when I wished I had someone to hold me, but those moments are few and getting more so.

So really! A relationship or THAT man can not make your life bliss. Only you are able to do that. There's so much beauty and fun in the world and I just feel so grateful for what I have. Family that cares, friends, a cool job that lets me travel everywhere.

I used to think that I have no choice and that I just have to put up with a partner. But I realized that even though it's hard and lonely, sometimes it's better to just be on your own for a time. Becoming desperate because you think you can't get a man, is unnattractive and the men you attract won't be worth your time anyway.

So just put a little more time into loving yourself. Do things that make you happy (for me, it's shopping). and make friends, travel, see the world, pick up a hobby. Being healthy and indpeendent will attract the right man to yourself better than your all-consuming desire to find someone..

I agree. I tend to skip anything relating to 'how to make things work with or attract a man.' After being that person for a long time, I found out that I was completely happy in and of myself. I plan on being single for a long time, relationships take too much compromise, lol. While I have nothing against others dating and loving it, I would like to see women stop feeling to need to be in a couple. While being in a relationship doesn't make you lose your independance, the need to be in one does.

BlueRoamer, you hit on one of my pet rants.

The challenge is balance, not juggling.

Very few women IN the relationship bother to call their friends and family, but are eager to start being independent when the man leaves, and I never see women leaving men. In fact I am having this problem now with women who only call me when their boyfriends dont' call. But it's funny to me that when their b/f's finally do leave, they will call and tell me to be more independent!

I always remember my friends and family and they are on the front of my mind, at all times, but I have given up on maintaining relationships with female friends for the time being, unless they are unusual in some way, or have a home of their own.
