JessiccaMove On or Move Forward?
November 3rd 2006 05:45
Sometime when you talk among your friends or when you are reading a book, you tend to come to the words like “moved on” or “moved forward” in many situations; and the most popular used these days are always referring to relationships. Like “move on, this relationship really sucks to you”.
When I was once questioned with my relationship with my partner, I was always given the comment of “your relationship is stagnant. You need to move on” or “it is not right for you to have such stagnant relationship. Relationship needs constant communication and in contact. You need to move forward on this or else you’d just get stuck and this is not healthy”
And many times when I asked them in return, “define moving on and moving forward?” They just do not know how to answer me.
Recently when I was with my friend at the bookstore searching for some graphic books for my new assignment from the office, my friend had the sudden comment, “I am glad that you are moving on… it is good to get yourself up and excited again with new challenges”
Those words bugged me. Not in the sense that I was not happy with her comment or anything, but I was bugged by the definition of “moving on and moving forward”
Does “moving on” means that you need to switch to something different? A difference course perhaps?
What about in relationship situations? How would you determine what is “moving on” and “moving forward”?
Up till now I am still confused with the two meanings.

Question:
What is the difference in “moving on” and “moving forward”
Are they relatively the same, or totally different in meaning?
How would you use these two in situations?

Move forward, I think, is the next step in the process of moving on. It's necessary to move on to move forward, to unencumber yourself and to keep moving (hopefully) ahead.
So there's a minute difference in each of the terms yet each consist of moving to move away from something, to counter negativite forces.
Let's say a situation like a board meeting. 'Moving on', could mean to simply get off the current topic to a new one, whilst 'moving forward' might mean solving the current topic in a forward manner which entails a possible second step to achieving the goal of the current topics dilemma.

It is hard to recognise when someone doesn't want you anymore or if you've got yourself attached to a loser.
Now you'll want a definition of a loser. I'd say it is someone who takes from others and doesn't give of himself/herself.
Men have a much more prosaic way of looking at things. They often perceive what a woman just doesn't want to.
Move on, by learning something new every day, unrelated to yourself and your so called immediate needs. That will bring a new perspective and help raise your self esteem.
But, then again, I could be wrong.
But, at least I've endeavoured to answer your questions.

That's one good comment!
So, relatively, you need to "move on" first then "move forward" if you are stuck in a situation that is bogging you down then?

Yes it is rather hard to detect a genuine "loser". And what about a person who's all full in his / her work and both just do their best in their individual responsibilities, and then ended up having a stagnant relationship?
Would this actually be in the term of "a loser dating another loser"?
