We have that expression in English too. We say someone "sees the world through rose-colored glasses."

There are situations I could see wanting a background check on someone I was seeing. Especially if there were a chance they could ever be sharing space with my children. If everything else were going well and the person was someone I could see myself being with, and they told me they wanted to...

I was at quite a loss for a name. I've been on forums forever and didn't want to use anything that has ever been associated with me. Over and Over is the name of a song that became an anthem for me when I lost my husband. I listened to it thousands of times probably. "Old enough to know, but...

I actually would like to clarify with them whether they intend for this to be a relationship where I am secondary to both, or a co-primary. Because I get the impression that they do not want me to feel secondary actually, but I just don't see how that works, yes, mostly because we do not live...

Hi, I was glad to stumble across this forum and see that it is active. I've been active on various forums for 20 years, but most have died a slow death ever since Facebook took over the world. I'm in a very unusual situation I never expected to find myself in. I feel the situation is extremely...
