I don't know about the rest of you here, but I use this forum for many things. I use it as a source of amusement, connecting with friends, venting frustrations, sharing thoughts, pasting and copying somethings that I find to share with others might be included in that definition of "sharing thoughts".

I enjoy communicating with people from all over the world, finding out about how life is in their part of the world, things that they they are interested in, are also interesting to me. I love sharing stories and interacting with everyone on here. I try to treat others as I myself would like to be treated, with respect and tolerance. But, there are some people who make that almost impossible with the things they say or how they come across in their threads. We are all here with one thing in mind and that is CONNECTING...hence the name CONNECTING SINGLES.

Some members are here to meet a signifigant other, some are here to enjoy the forums once they find their other half, some are here for the humor, some are here for ulterior motives and I sometimes confused just can't presume to know why some people even bother to log in. Some people find this site as a method to relieve their inner tensions, some use it as a forum for their own agendas, some use it to provoke reactions from others for some unknown reason, but every is here for a reason and has a purpose.

Is it too much to ask to just enjoy the time we have on this forum, to openly communicate, to spread laughter, joy, humor and opinions. I realize that every opinion is not going to be thought provoking, humorous, light-hearted or enjoyable to read. But, that is what makes it interesting and in my opinion beings that I am the one writing this post...that is what makes these forums so diverse and unique...there is something to be said for those to qualities.

Who doesn't want to be free to express their opinions??? I'll tell you who...those people who don't have their own and they must have very boring almost non-existent lives to have absolutely nothing constructive to add to anything.

Just my OWN thoughts, words and opinions. Thank you for listening to me vent! Most appreciated!cheers

a nice and very well constructed rant!!

and I sympathise with your view point and agree that in the main it is better to be constructive rather then destructive
however, there are soooo many bloody pointless threads on here where sooo many boring people take themselves soooo bloody serious;ly i think a little flipant but light relief is sometimes required.

added to that, as you corectly point out it is free for all to react on this site we feel suits our mode of thought at that time!

after all, we should be here to mix and meet and share new experiences but that isnt always possible to achieve - not for all of

we cannot all be as fortunate as ice and BND and zwoon over our partners in postsings on threads.
Lucky them!

and good luck to you, my friend!


cheers handshake

Very true...Mr. Wizzie..how right you are. But we can just agree to disagree when there is no common ground to be reached, that works for me.handshake

As from a previous thread. Commonsense has passed on. Been murdered by Health and Safety.

Manners and Courtesy aren't far behind it being destroyed by Political Correctness.

I agree with you. There is no point about bandying words about. 90% of the time you are preaching to a closed mind and just pissing yourself off.

Its like me listening to talk back radio. It really jerks my chain. Before i know it I'm ranting to an empty room about some idiot who doesn't know I exist because he said something i disagree with on the radio. I hate talk back radio it always makes me look stupid.

If i'm in charge of the station i quickly flick it to music.

You know the ones i really hate are the ones that start off with "Hi Long time listener first time caller" Its like they want some big medal to pin on their chest.

At anyrate your post was well written and I completely agree. Too often we watch a thread spin out of control. Even caused it to happen a couple of times. My Bad. I wish we could have an auto sensor that would cause us to freeze until we got our thought process's back on an even keel

Cheers and Happy Postings.

Listening hug hug

Express their opinions, to be free to so help

At times when I post here, I do not feel so free knowing "must be careful just might start something etc....dunno dunno

I honestly would be comfortable posting, but like anyone else, my buttons can be pushed and may be kicked out of a wonderful place that I enjoy, and made friends smitten

And it is on the Int'l site dunno

Op's now I got to put my armor suit on rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing
