Bored certified...
I once dated a woman who had to be entertained every waking moment. I was working from home at the time and she had a job with lots of local travels. Often, she would stop by unannounced and get annoyed if I couldn't give her my undivided attention when she came over.
Dates were much the same. When we went to the movies, I couldn't become engrossed in the movie... I had to maintain concentration on her. The movie (or anything else) had to become secondary.
It appeared she would get bored being alone. Impatient, at best if something didn't occupy her free time.
I'd say she was bored certified...

If you knew Andi...
This must be Andi week and no one told me about it. Usually, I get emails or text messages like Black Friday sales, but Andi shows up unannounced. Yesterday, a new profile appeared with photos of Andi. I won't give out her handle, but she's 31 from Mississippi, if you are curious. I've lost count now if it's the 3rd or 4th Andi appearing on CS this month, but she's been popular with scammers. For many years, Andi photos have appeared on dating sites.
There is another dating site I visit and 2 bogus Andi profiles appeared last night. One from Spain and one from Brazil. Both profiles share the same photos. It's a free site, but you cannot send or read messages without paying... So much for being free. That doesn't matter as many new members buy a month of premium membership and blast out messages to standard members. Small audience and short lived as contact information (email or phone) is prohibited on the first 2 contacts.
So what's it about Andi that makes her so popular? She's adult model Andi Land who has been around more than a decade. Google her name and you will see she's very attractive, slender with black hair in a distinctive style that's parted on one side and 'wraps' around to the other side. Most of her photos are just normal poses so you won't get to see the 'over the top' cleavage and oozing with slut. That's probably why her photos are used so often as the girl next door approach is so believable.

Met Someone In Person At Church!
For this past Sunday mornings I've been hugging and kissing a older female from my Unitarian-Universalist congregation in Pittsburgh,Pa, who I met face to face in person(not online); while sitting next to her in the pews during worship she gives me a cough drop.

Trust?
As far as I can throw them...
Take 2 new profiles, created within minutes of each other. Different photos, different age, different countries. The both have word-for-word identical opening lines, same height, hair and eye color, say the same thing in their occupation and looking for nearly the same in what they are seeking in a man.
Check one box that applies:
( ) Real
( ) Bogus
With new female members being about 80% bogus, it'sdifficult next to impossible for someone to actually find a real deal.
Pretty sad situation. This week, I was hunting a photo that linked to a site that advertised all their members are verified.
I'm thinking "Verified for what?"
A few bogus ones each week show up there.

6 styles of love. People can be a blend
In response to:
There Are Six Styles of Love. Which One Best Describes You?
Keep in mind, you may still possess some elements of the others.
The Conversation
Rachel Grieve
Love is a complex and powerful force, one that plays out in a number of emotional, cognitive and social ways.
When we love a person, we feel emotional arousal in their presence. We will also have a set of thoughts (or cognitions) about that person, and our previous experiences can shape our ideas about what we expect in our relationships. For example, if you believe in love at first sight, then you are more likely to experience it.
But we use love in many different contexts. You might say that you love your partner, or your family, or your best friend, your job or even your car. Clearly, you’re using the term in different ways that highlight the various dimensions of love.
The ancient Greeks described several different types of love. Following the Greeks, the sociologist and activist John Alan Lee suggested that there are six broad styles of love.
It is good to keep in mind that although these love styles can be thought of as “types”, we are not necessarily locked into only one. We might have a predominant love style, but we will also have some elements of the other styles.
Similarly, our love style might change over time based on our experiences and interactions with our partners.
Eros
This style is typically experienced as a romantic, fairytale-type love. Physical beauty is important to this love style. Attraction is intense and immediate (“head over heels”), and the Eros lover feels an urgent drive to deepen the relationship emotionally and physically.
Because these individuals love the feeling of being in love, they tend to be serial monogamists, staying in a relationship as long as it feels fresh and compelling, then moving on so they can experience those same feelings again with someone new.
Storge
Storgic types tend to be stable and committed in their relationships. They value companionship, psychological closeness and trust. For these individuals, love relationships can sometimes grow out of friendships, so that love sneaks up on the pair. This love style is enduring, and these individuals are in it for the long haul.
Ludus
People with a ludic style view love as a game that they are playing to win. Often this can be a multiplayer game! Ludic individuals are comfortable with deception and manipulation in their relationships. They tend to be low on commitment and are often emotionally distant.
Because ludic individuals are more focused on the short term, they tend to place greater importance on the physical characteristics of their mate than do the other love styles. They are also more likely to engage in s*xual hookups.
Pragma
Practicality rules for this type. Logic is used to determine compatibility and future prospects. This doesn’t mean that these individuals use an emotionless, Spock-like approach to their relationships, rather they a place a high importance on whether a potential mate will be suited to meeting their needs.
These needs might be social or financial. Pragmatists might wonder if their prospective partner would be accepted by family and friends, or whether they’re good with money. The might also evaluate their emotional assets; for example, does a would-be partner have the skills to be calm in times of stress? ...

I can sort of understand Trump's shock, that a man could stay loyal to the woman he marries.
To Trump something is very wrong with that.

Satire from The Borowitz Report
Desperate Trump Alleges Ties Between Joe Biden and Jill Biden
By Andy Borowitz
October 23, 2020
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—In an attempt to gin up an “October surprise,” an increasingly desperate Donald J. Trump demanded an investigation into alleged links between Joe Biden and Jill Biden.
“People are saying that he is very close to her,” Trump told Sean Hannity, of Fox News. “There’s something going on.”
Trump said that there are “tens of thousands of e-mails” between Joe Biden and Jill Biden, a state of affairs that he called “disgraceful.”
“We need to move quite strongly on the e-mails, and also on the bank records,” Trump said, arguing that money has “flowed freely” between the two Bidens for decades.
In his most serious accusation, Trump warned that a President Joe Biden would be “under the influence” of Dr. Jill Biden because of their extensive ties.
“Joe Biden has been listening to a doctor for forty-three years,” he alleged.

Tough guy
A tough guy walks with a swagger and stride, With muscles built from a life filled with pride. He's rough around the edges, but soft at the core, A heart of gold, always ready to restore.
He's faced his fair share of battles and fights, With scars to show for the battles he's won in life. But he never backs down, he never gives in, A fighter through and through, always standing tall and thin.
He's got a rough exterior, but a gentle soul, A sense of humor that never grows old. He's a shoulder to cry on, a hand to hold, A friend to the end, never growing cold.
So here's to the tough guy, the one who's strong, The one who stands up when everything goes wrong. With a heart of gold, and a spirit so brave, He's the kind of guy we all should try to be, in every single way.
