You are correct on if society gave equal up bringing then their might be less differences on mental level. Most women due to upbringing and giving birth are better multi taskers. We have actually not had much choice. I have noticed in the past (tho very few) the stay at home Dads seem to have a great ability to multi task. Maybe we do not teach babies, maybe they teach us
That sounds heavenly. I will be in a home with lots of children under the age of 10, plus my puppers We will be baking cookies and binge watching Christmas movies this evening. Sooo my views will be chaotic Have a wonderful time and I feel a little jelly of you at this moment. Merry Christmas!
I am not on Tinder either. I don't know what your pictures on there are I do know I will look at a profile if there is something that interest me. I like to fish so if I see a picture of a big fish or even a little one to be honest I will click on the pic to get a closer look. Also to see if I recognize the fishing area Try changing your pictures. Maybe a dog, cat or something you like to do. This is going to sound silly but I am going to say it anyhow don't put a picture up you wouldn't want your mom to see. The pic will bring them in and then once in they will read and maybe just maybe there will be a connection!
I am a foodie also I like cooking but I also will leave the comforts of the kitchen and go sit with friends sometimes on the water and dine. More for the scenery and the companionship of good conversation and laughs. In a word that was fair I would weigh 500lbs the way I eat. I do prefer eating healthy no matter if it is at home or out.
Sadly I cannot help to wonder how long the forums can survive this. If I am not mistaken we are supported by advertisers. We need new blood so to say new ideas. New topics, Possibly even new attitudes for some (dare I say) I see people try and bring fun back to the forums. Time after time the threads just die. This is not just here, it is all over the internet. A small group post, their main purpose is to try to be entertaining and it goes awry so many times that after a while it is just the same old ones posting. And then even they post less and less.
"What's wrong with you people" we want even go there I do want to address the subject of online dating and expectations. I personally think online dating is the killer of dating. People all of a sudden get these high expectations and no one person can fill those expectations. There is all of a sudden complete loss of sight. There are so many choices a lot of people will get that deer in the head light stance. They are scared to move forward and they freeze in the land of the what if. What if I meet the person and it is a disastor, what if someone better is on here, what if. Now we have found one we both like each other and exchange emails. We don't know each other. We can't see each other through body language. It is like walking through a mine field. What can one write to someone without turning them away. Write to much then they might run. Write to less they see you as not interested and run. Ask to call or text to soon and then they worry you are moving to fast, scammer, player etc. and some take it as a game to feed their egos. These are the ones I feel bad for, they will forever be dating their computers most likely unable to have a healthy relationship. I would like to make a suggestion. Stay on here look around. People have met and had wonderful relationships from this site. Also go out in the tactile world. We have groups in our area that are listed on meetup. I have not joined any of the single groups on there but I have joined some of the other groups and enjoyed meeting different people from all different parts of life . I have my friends yet I also enjoy meeting new people. I have found some groups, you can meet single people, married people, different races, all educational back grounds. I joined one we met for dinner once a month and usually around thirty or more would show up and we would do dinner and drinks. I watched some relationships slowly begin. If you have a good host you should never feel awkward or strange going. If not "nothing ventured, nothing gained". Deep breaths see on line for what it is and try to enjoy what time you spend here. Best wishes on finding what you are looking for
I can understand that. That must of shook your daughter also I agree don't bother them I go kayaking out in the marsh and every now and and then I give myself the heebie jeebies. I can turn a floating stick into a ten foot gator quickly
Went to lunch and a movie yesterday. I seen the Marsh Kings Daughter. I was riveted to the screen. I had not seen it advertised, was pleasantly surprised. Now I want to read the book.
I was a little surprised to see you post this "being Floridian". I was raised around guns. One night while out in the marsh we hit a stump and it laid the air boat on its side. There was no choice but starve and die out there or start walking back to the landing I was glad to have protection even tho I did not need it. The creepers of the swamps are even more scarier at night in my imagination than in the day time when I can see them I google Ospry, I am not familiar with town. Yet when I seen the area, I am familiar with the area. You live in a beautiful area. Also if a gator ever comes towards you pop it on the nose real hard. They don't like that
Years ago I had a job that required us to wear heels. I even then tried to get ones with short heels. And also spent good money to make sure they were comfortable. The few times I wore spike heels I found them uncomfortable and difficult to walk in and yet I had several friends that actually could run gracefully in them.
Yesterday we buried one of my beloved co workers. A wonderful young man. Always a smile on his face. An asset to his community. His death broke my heart. He was a father of seven. Many elderly depended on him for rides to the store etc. Saturday he was playing a game of dominoes with some friends. Another one of his friends had a disagreement. Shot him six times in the stomach and twice in the head. Yet he still lived. He died in the hospital His friend realizing what he had done turn the gun on his self. Shot at his head and missed. Tried again and he also died in the hospital. The gun was a tool that the man used to create this horrific event. I am still pro gun. I was raised around guns. And was taught respect for them. The first time I shot a gun and felt the bullet leaving the chamber it was a scary feeling of power. I knew then what a responsibility holding a weapon like this is. Mental illness is running rampant in our country and I imagine in the rest of the world. Not even stricter gun laws can change this. One moment someone seems perfectly fine. Another "poof" they are not. Maybe it was something that had been growing inside them and they kept it buried till it reared its ugly head. But killing someone mass killings there are so many more ways to do it than a gun. A gun makes it personal.
Yes they do. The one thing that keeps me going during the bad days is hope and gratitude for the blessings I do have in my life. I am a firm believer in a little thing called "hope".
I am lucky I very seldom have aches but when I do I use Alieve gel caps or Aspercreme Maximum Strength Muscle & Joint Pain, I prefer the patches. It actually works for me.
I have found liars can be found off and on line. Sad yes and easily to figure out quickly. I neither find love over rated or beyond reach. Which is kind of funny because I have not been in a relationship for years and like you I got disenchanted. I still believe there are a lot of good potential partners out there. I have crossed paths in life with a lot of good men. And the thing that kept me from reaching out to them is me. I know me quite well. I am not for every man. I ask myself what would I bring to that relationship. And if I think what I bring might make someone miserable I will just pass. I tried years ago a couple of on line dates. I think they weren't really lieing I just think sometimes we don't see our selfs as other people see us. Most people I come in contact with on a daily basis are not broken people. I have a tendacy to stay away from broken people. I prefer to surround myself with positive people. I do have love in my life. Enough it completes my need. Family, friends, community and as was mentioned cookies etc
I love to travel Seeing new places and new things. Learning new things. Funny thing is I am more comfortable away from people. In the barren areas. Deserted beaches, to out in the swamps. Yet when I travel I also enjoy looking out to the hustle and bustle of the big cities. My father traveled alot and would take me with him sometimes. I liked to read and to this day I remember something he told me and it was so true. "Put the book down" (dad we have traveled this road many a time I whined) " No matter how often you go down a road if you look you will see something you have never seen before" I got the love of travel from him.
When I was in my late twenties/ early thirties I learned a couple of things in life. And they actually quickly became imbedded in my life. Patience and how to say no. No to me and other people. These two things have made my life alot easier.
I don't like abuse of animals or people. Any person or animal that is not able to protect themselfs :blue Children who are allowed to run rampant in stores destroying, parents to tired or to busy talking on their phones to tend to them. Hate. I don't like to see hate. It is like an emotional black cloud hanging in the air waiting to suck as many as it can in it 's emotional cloud. Gossip even if it is about me. I am ok. Don't need to hear it.
PS and I do not like to paint my house. I will paint a picture but please please please not a house and walls
That ship sailed a long time ago and I wasn't even recorded. They think I am twisted already Thank goodness I am good worker or I most likely wouldn't have my job! I do out rageous stuff in my life and then stand there and laugh about it
RE: Is any group of people responsible for the loss of fun contributors & thumbsdown in the cs forums?
You are talking about Reggie (the frog).
