It's what I trust. Warmth reminds me of my own family, whom I love. When a person is cold, aloof or otherwise vacant toward me (oh sure we all have bad days, but over time...), there's no chance it's going to work.

Warmth is an awesome feeling and I love it when I have it in my life. Lately it's a struggle to keep the warmth.

I'm currently in a relationship and feel the warmth most of the time, but sometimes I feel like I'm insecure and needy. This is a very cold feeling. But I try and work on it daily and when I'm in a really cold place, I pull out my positive books and start reading them. It really does help.

I hope you are warm tonight!!!

Thanks! I watch a lot of sitcoms (Two-and-a-Half Men is my absolute favorite) and laughter makes me warm.

Relying on another for warmth is sometimes a futile endeavor. I too feel insecure and needy with this particular person, and I don't like feeling that way. I have plenty going for me, but when it comes to a relationship, sometimes I just fall to pieces. Maybe it's me, maybe it's her, maybe it's me and her together, but it just feels like something's missing. Thanks!

Warmth is like electric current ~ if your connected, you feel warmth.

If your un-connected, your gonna feel cold.
