gingerb: Out personal choices of lifestyle have more to do with who we are than most people think. What we do in everyday life and who we are, are very closely linked to our preferences for who we can get on with in a partnership.

More so I think than what we can say about ourselves on here...


So if I want to live with a beautiful bimbo I should hang out at the Playboy mansion more often to find her? wave

vinny1967: I think I am pretty much the same.

I have been to a CS meet and everone I met was also pretty much the same.

When people post in the forums their personality does come thru and I think its pretty easy to spot the real ones.

So your saying I'm not real Vinny? Just kidding! Hope your having a great weekend. bouquet

voyager007: please let me thank you and all those who truly knows the issue of an individual value which some other people try to hide it within a group.


Pleasure, more people do think about an individual now than before, we are more exposed to many more people than ever before, because of the internet, but there is alot of culturising and generalising that exists here and many other places.

In response to:

the group is made by individuals as an entity that has its own value to complete the group,, while others who lacks to exist as an entity use the group to come to existence and then they damage the essential thought which created the group in the first place.



Herd mentality, or to be really blunt, trophy chasing, or to be really blunt, lack of intelligence.

In response to:

this can be reflected on couples too. both must exist to become a group represented as a family but what does break that family is when one or sometimes both starts to eliminate those two or more entities, which made this group in first place, such that they dissolve within one entity to cover their mistakes and deficiency to exist on its own as an entity related to that group.



I agree.

In response to:

well, I think am starting to lose it here



No, I do not think you are losing it, you have made perfect sense.

Sleep well.

Sommerauer71: Thank you Vinny.

Yes, I can see that happening.

But then that does not make them unreal, does it?

I have been guilty of that myself...

Being contrary.

But I can always remember what I write, so that is good.

And alot of people go to threads because of the people that are in it, which is why alot of threads go off topic.

Because people who are friends, will be clumped together.

If I have started a thread, I will remain it, if it getting responses, because I like a good old discussion whilst I wait for the laundry to finish and the man is at the pub.

But that does not make them or me unreal?

Does it?


Real was probably the wrong term

but in relation to the thread

if you are meeting a person who contradicts themselves

regularily you really don't know what to expect and would have

no true sense of them.

gingerb: Always happy to see you Sommer and to have something interesting to talk about in threads.


Oh you know me, I love a good old discussion and one that can be had with respect, it makes such a difference.

Another thing I have learnt is that it is so easy to rethink a situtation and learn something from people, which I do often from here.

And a joy for me that you came and joined us all.

Sommerauer71: Represent who we are in life?

I ask this because it has been something that since meeting with PPV, we have discussed.

I look like my pictures, coz they are me, he is the same as he portrays here, obviously he talks less than he writes, I mean honestly, most of you saw what he had written.

So, are you quieter, noisier, more shy, face to face than on here?

I have read so many times when people have met that they are not the same as they are online.


Hello Sommer..

I am shy until you get to know me..

Yeh i know who would of quess..

Its different when you are sitting behind a computer..you can
say anything you wish and wont get a slap in the facelaugh

Hi KMD.

Oh I love your 'different when sitting behind a screen', fantastic.

And so very true.

And look how it has all worked out, KMD, wonderfully...

One of the success stories here.

Big_John: So if we agree many of us are different or at least appear to be different on-line how do we work to ensure the "right" one finds us? I know I have found several really nice ladies, but each of them wasn't the "one". Maybe I don't know how ot attract the right kind of woman based on my limited abilities to identify those qualities online. Many of my friends tell me I should stop looking online and stick to the "real" world. The real world in small town Mississippi doesn't haven't many ladies.


I have met people online way back when it wasn't fashiinable.

And not on dating sites.
First one was on a Community Building site, ala M.Scott Peck, where the day before I left to go o/s for 3 mths, I posted a message requesting if anyone had any accommodation at their home in New York for April that year, as I would be there for few weeks. To cut a long story short, I received a reply from a guy in Texas offering my a place to stay if ever I went there. Well I replied out of courtesy saying, 'you never know' and left a forwarding address in Pisa, Italy at my aunt's place. Blow me down there was a letter waiting for me when I visited her. From the guy in Texas. I actually ended up flying to Dallas Fort Worth From New York in April and stayed at his home for 10 days. We still email each other. It's been 12 yrs. And no hanky panky and was treated like a princess.

Second time I was researching a professional site. I emailed the director of the clinic. His P.A. replied on his behalf and he received the message on his return from an African safari. Yeah, I knowroll eyes Well, next thing you know, I find myself months later, travelling to Maryland, he paid for the return airfare for me and I stayed with him and his wife for 2 weeks at their home, they had cooks, cleaners, garndeners. Even deer for me to look at on my morning walks through their acreage.

So, John, you can tell your friends, online people, well mowst of them, are real people, who are part of RL.

Oh it is Cris, hi by the way.

But here if people get on your nerves then there is nothing to say that you have to endure that.

You can as in life, chose to ignore them.

I do.

That's a very good point, Vinny. Most here are true to themselves when they answer, though. And consistent. I have had times, though, in a thread where a response from someone else made me think further on a subject, and reconsider my stance. And one where as I was writing one response, and the one most expected from me, I discovered that it was not how I felt about it. Shocked me as much as it did some others. laugh But, it was real.

I am the same on-line as I am off...in fact...I write the way I talk...type O's excluded...roll eyes and have the exact same wacky sense of humour....Oh and I talk just as much....I can be a bit shy when first meeting someone depending on my comfort level with the person...if they are talkative like me though...then we are good to go.....wave wink blah blah blah blah blah blah grin
