A person meets thousands of different people across a lifetime, a woman thousands of different men, of all shades, and many more if she constantly passes through different parts of the world. Even so, of the many different people a person on average meets it is rare for one to fit almost immediately in harmony and general interest. For all the choices available the odds are enormous. The miracle is there to be grasped. .Murray Bail
About This Quote
The power of chance makes one wonder if there is a hidden hand that guides some people to each other. It might be called destiny or destiny's hand or they are thrown together by the state of the world, but when two people share similar tastes, interests, and desires it can be difficult to explain why they are attracted to each other. We are all put on this earth for a purpose. The purpose may not be clear at first, but time will reveal it. If you are in a relationship with someone that is not right for you then you need to ignore the odds and find someone who is right for you instead of waiting until your life is over. The few times I have had the most amazing sex was when my partner was truly attracted to me.
It's hard when you meet someone who has no interest in you when both of you are half-naked in bed yet this person continues to pursue their sexual desires regardless. Sometimes it takes years before someone comes along who really gets what you have to offer, so if there is someone out there who isn't interested in just getting into bed with you then give up hope on them right now because it could take years before they come into their own sexual desires and find what makes them feel good in bed.
