You want to feel special..
You want to feel you are unique, different, your light shines brighter then all the rest..to be the apple of his eye.
But words are cheap. In this cyber-space world how do you know he is not saying the same cheap words to every women on his screen? That he is not collecting women like trinkets.
Follow your gut, if you get "that" feeling then it is most likely true.
I am not a "trinket", but a beautiful, unique, person with feelings!

Dating etiquette - do manners really matter?
Bad breath is a guaranteed date turn-off for 97% of Australian men and women, according to a recent A Rendezvous for Singles survey. So, i was wondering is it really that high?
A first date may not go on for hours, but you need to get past the first five minutes. So clean, floss, mouthwash before the date. If your date is in the evening, and the last time you and your toothbrush spent some time together was in the morning, use that toothbrush and toothpaste sitting in your office drawer or make a pit stop at the chemist on the way for a cheap travel kit you can use once and throw away. The three minute investment could be the difference between a second date and none at all.
In the line-up of date turn-offs, overall bad manners came in first and bad breath a close second in the Australian A Rendezvous’ survey of over 500 men and women. Ladies be warned, men rated bad breath as their number one date turn off. And when it comes to etiquette, 76.8% of the ladies we surveyed revealed that bad manners could be a bloke’s biggest blunder. There are also easy wins – a man who holds the door open for his date (when it’s practical) will win brownie points. Extended visits to the bathroom can be seen as bad manners, as it may mean leaving your date sitting alone for some time. Texting or calling someone else while already on a date is the ultimate in bad manners, as is checking out other people (52.8% of women surveyed by a rendezvous rated this as the third biggest turn off). Remember that your date is looking for clues about who you are, so don’t let nerves get in the way of your best behaviour. Almost three quarters of the men we surveyed (69.7% in fact) told us that this was their second biggest turn off, only second to bad breath. If you’re out for dinner, or a drink, being rude to waiters, bartenders or anyone else in the room will be picked up by your date as potentially how you may treat them.
First dates can be a lot of fun. They’re a chance to have a more in-depth conversation with someone who has taken your fancy. Best case scenario is that the initial eye contact turns into flirting and another date. Or that you’ve met someone new who can open up new opportunities. But when you’re treading the same path between work, family, friends and home each day, it’s not always easy to meet new people, especially those with whom you may want to spend more time.
Dates can also be a minefield, and sometimes one-on-one first dates can feel more like business than pleasure. A Rendezvous dinners are an easy way to avoid some of the date turn offs. They often feel more like dinner with friends, and don’t have the pressure of a dating set-up. With you in soft focus, there’s little danger you’ll talk too much (23.7% of blokes told us they don’t like this). You’ll have a greater chance of surreptitiously checking out everyone at the table without a single individual being put off. A Rendezvous dinners can be a way to meet a group of people, not just one other, who are also single. They know how it can be to want to get out and have fun but are surrounded by friends who have all married or paired up.
It irks 18.4% of men when a woman doesn’t offer to pay, and vice versa for 17% of women who prefer a man to offer to pay – so with the issue of paying the bill already taken care of with A Rendezvous dinners, all you need to do is remember your manners . . . and your toothbrush!

Do "Separated" folks need to be avoided???
I find that some people are wary about being in touch with folks who are 'separated' - legally, mentally, physically, etc. etc. My question here is 'why'??? There are many, many 'separated' folks on CS who are very clear about their intentions - I'm one. If we clearly state that we are just looking to make friends, chat, email - why would you avoid us??
Just a traveler
..I am just a traveler on a cosmic journey ... not knowing where I come from..not knowing where I am going.. I just walk , and walk , and walk , along the path,,
The Definition of a true man....
By definition - I've learned over the course of time and in the recent days that we all have our definition of a real man. I know the difference between a jerk and man; there are several. Today was an encounter of an individual who called and was being honest that the only they missed about me was that I bought them beer occasionally. Friendship really had nothing to do with it. They were looking for a free ride. Then HE started to belittle me because I don't live in the 1950-60s like he does where all women work white collar jobs and the like. I'm not the A-typical woman who does and everything her man says or whatever.
I guess what I'm getting at is that a "real" man doesn't call and belittle a woman because he has problems or needs to vent and takes it out all on her. So to this I say women and men. By definition what is yours of a "real Man"?

Cyprus Earthquake !!
Good Morning everyone,
Today (Aug. 25, 2009) at 06:28am GMT, a 4.7 degree (Richter scale) earthquake hit the island of Cyprus.
I was getting ready, and about to leave my apartment on the 7th floor, heading to my work in Limassol city, when the shaking starts. It was like three strikes lasted between 30- 40 seconds. Most of the people left the building and they where standing in the streets.
Honestly, I was totally astounded! .. and shocked!!.. I moved to Cyprus 6 months ago and this was my first earthquake experience, I didn’t know what to do exactly!! .. should I leave my apartment ? .. should I use the stairs ? .. should I call someone ? ..
For the following 15-20 minutes, all mobile networks were busy and calls couldn’t go through ..
Anyways it passed and everything is great again on the island, so after today's experience I searched the net, and found some useful information on FEMA's website on what to do during an earthquake? And would like to share it with all of you .. just in case you go through the same experience…
What to Do During an Earthquake?
Stay as safe as possible during an earthquake. Be aware that some earthquakes are actually foreshocks and a larger earthquake might occur. Minimize your movements to a few steps to a nearby safe place and stay indoors until the shaking has stopped and you are sure exiting is safe.
If indoors:
•DROP to the ground; take COVER by getting under a sturdy table or other piece of furniture; and HOLD ON until the shaking stops. If there isn’t a table or desk near you, cover your face and head with your arms and crouch in an inside corner of the building.
•Stay away from glass, windows, outside doors and walls, and anything that could fall, such as lighting fixtures or furniture.
•Stay in bed if you are there when the earthquake strikes. Hold on and protect your head with a pillow, unless you are under a heavy light fixture that could fall. In that case, move to the nearest safe place.
•Use a doorway for shelter only if it is in close proximity to you and if you know it is a strongly supported, loadbearing doorway.
•Stay inside until shaking stops and it is safe to go outside. Research has shown that most injuries occur when people inside buildings attempt to move to a different location inside the building or try to leave.
•Be aware that the electricity may go out or the sprinkler systems or fire alarms may turn on.
•DO NOT use the elevators.
If outdoors:
•Stay there.
•Move away from buildings, streetlights, and utility wires.
•Once in the open, stay there until the shaking stops. The greatest danger exists directly outside buildings, at exits, and alongside exterior walls. Many of the 120 fatalities from the 1933 Long Beach earthquake occurred when people ran outside of buildings only to be killed by falling debris from collapsing walls. Ground movement during an earthquake is seldom the direct cause of death or injury. Most earthquake-related casualties result from collapsing walls, flying glass, and falling objects.
If in a moving vehicle:
•Stop as quickly as safety permits and stay in the vehicle. Avoid stopping near or under buildings, trees, overpasses, and utility wires.
•Proceed cautiously once the earthquake has stopped. Avoid roads, bridges, or ramps that might have been damaged by the earthquake.
If trapped under debris:
•Do not light a match.
•Do not move about or kick up dust.
•Cover your mouth with a handkerchief or clothing.
•Tap on a pipe or wall so rescuers can locate you. Use a whistle if one is available. Shout only as a last resort. Shouting can cause you to inhale dangerous amounts of dust.
Thank you and be safe.
