Still lost..?

Ok.  Here is the deal.  Is it just a fantasy to expect to be loved unconditionally and for no other reason than you matter to someone?

My experience is that you can be the object of someone's affection if:

• You can be a stepping stone if they realize you can be helpful in helping them attain their agenda.;
• You have financial means that helps them enjoy a better lifestyle.  this usually goes along with the first statement.;
• You are considered attractive and the physical attention is a boost......but you'll usually find that there is no love involved from the other party;
• You provide all the concessions.  Makes things easy for them.;
• You are willing to give of yourself under a false set of assumptions (that you are working on building a relationship).  You'll most likely give of yourself until you are empty.......then you will find you have served your purpose.

So.......here we are.  Again.
