Just thought I’d share an excerpt of a very real conversation. After reading the transcript, I encourage you to share your two cents, or whatever amount of change you happen to have in your pocket right now. Happy Tuesday.

Her: Can I ask you a question?

Me: Sure, what’s up?

Her: What’s wrong with you?

Me: What do you mean?

Her: I’ve just been trying to figure you out, and figure out why you are so nice to me. It almost seems unreal. So I’m wondering what’s wrong with you.

Me: I’m not sure what you want me to say. There’s nothing wrong with me. I guess it’s just gonna take some getting used to me.

Her: I guess. That’s if I let myself get close to you. I have to be honest with you. You scare me.

Me: That’s not a good thing.

Her: I know. You remind me of that song “Dracula’s Wedding.”

Me: I don’t know that song. What are the lyrics?

Her: You’re all I’ve ever wanted, but I’m terrified of you. My castle may be haunted, but I’m terrified of you. I’ve cast my spell on millions, but I’m terrified of you. Baby I do this from the ceiling, but I’m terrified of you. I wait my whole life to bite the right one, then you come along and that freaks me out, so I’m frightened. I’ve never ran from no one, but I’m terrified of you. See my heartbeat is a slow one, but I’m terrified of you. I’ve been around for ages, but I’m terrified of you. Put my fang across the stage, but yet I’m terrified of you.

Me: I remind you of that song?

Her: Yes

Me: Why?

Her: Because I’ve waited my whole life to find the right one, and then you come alone, and that freaks me out…

Me: Oh…I don’t understand why that would scare you.

**Fly Thought: Isn’t it interesting how we can be scared of things actually going right in our lives? Just food for thought.

Here’s a little mood music…

Andre 3000′s “Dracula’s Wedding”

    I am in that same position. Now I am making a concious effort to NOT engage in self-sabotage.

    WOW! that’s interesting and so true. sometimes we feel like it’s too good to be true so we back off to preserve our heart and feelings. I don’t know what to tell you to do. Actually i don’t think there is anything that you can do. she needs to let go and jump in with both feet.

    and i need to take my own damn advice!LOL

    That’s good to know that you’re making that effort. Sometimes we can engage in self-sabotage and not even know it.

    Thanks to DJ Lisa M for posting this link (via Twitter) This is the second post I’ve received about love that’s opened my eyes. Thanks for the post.

    I’m sure it happens more than we care to admit. Consciously we know we should be happy “good” finally came into our lives, but with a track record of nothing but “bad” it’s hard to believe it’s true. It’s not so much that you’re scared of “good”, it’s that you’re scared you’ll fall for the wolf in sheep’s clothing again and be hurt – and this time even more so, because it was so damn convincing. And then you throw in a little insecurity, a little “I don’t deserve someone so good” and there you go, sabotaging the best thing that’s happened to you for fear of pain.

    My suggestion would be don’t hold back! If you have been in a position where you have given your all to a man that wasn’t half as good and yet you somehow knew it, then you should try the same with someone who is worth the time and effort. This time you know the possibility of getting your heartbroken is not at high risk as oppose to that ‘bad boy’ you may have fell in love with!! Real Love is a beautiful thing!! Just my 2 cents…

    First, I absolutely adore this song.

    Secondly, I concur with everything Sugarlips said. It’s srt of like the boy who cried wolf. You’ve encountered so many others that originally seemed like the one only to be another loss. Now, you’re a cynic & suspicious of all others. No one likes disappointment.

    I can’t lie… this sounds like something I would say and for the very reason that sugarlips gave.

    what can I say, after encountering so many frogs, it’s hard to believe that you’ve finally found the prince. She just takes time, I guess.

    Sometimes you have to control your thinking. Thoughts become things. It’s hard as a man to fight an image embedded in a woman’s brain..let alone her heart. Not to mention bare the burden of someone else actions or mistakes. Can’t receive a blessing with your arms folded.
    And I agree the song is serious. Actually that whole ablum was.

    I agree with most of the comments above. I am presently in Relationship Sabotage Addiction (RSA) recovery…been clean for 497 days and going strong.
    Normally that behavior is born out of the fear that eventually the “other shoe will drop”. My current relationship still has hints of breath holding because things are just going sooo well. I mean we have had issues that would have in the past (for both of us) become some big drama. However since neither of us believe in drama and feel we should address any issues, concerns or grievances early on like mature adults we haven’t had any arguments. We both have on several occasions mentioned that it makes us uneasy because we are both out of our element.
