soulmateTWS: Thank you Ken, you're such a sweet and positive friend.
I've really gotten quite upset about this whole matter, so I think I'm gonna bow out now...I've stated why I'm here...and my marital status...I've been very upfront about it on here and in my posts... ...lots to think about now...
Anyway...I hope this thread become a bit more optimistic and positive...
You are a good friend and hope you stay around to keep me in line!!!
It's NOT about members who state in their profiles that they are married. EVERYBODY happily agrees about them being an asset to forums, to friends, etc.
The OP is about NONE-singles looking to 'hook up" with singles; often under false pretenses.
Anyways, how are YOU?
mindfful: laura i didnt think it was all the way bad as telephone...??
i mean that comment by dancing farmer? omygosh soulmate sweetie you didnt owe such an explanation!and i dont need any of my feelings or decisions to ???? hold water??
its nobodys business who is on this site but Admin seriously their attitude is they are the hosts and guests who arent happy or are unruly may 'go home'
i dont need an "excuse" to do anything except that ive chosen sogood grief
i may have disagreed with people here and there and even argued or slung insults but i would never ever be so inappropriate as to think i have any place to tell people to not be here-and ive seen alot of that lately and its uncool
i mean if ya see people on profiles ya can send em a note to leave or a shame on you youre married OR you can report the profile to admin but to make all these threads people-just ridiculous
if its about private non forum profiles report em if that were the issue this thread wouldnt have begun or continued
thats just what i think but im just another member and we are all equal
mbcasey: I hope the married people here on the forums stay...we would all miss you very much!! You are a testament to what most of us on CS wish to aspire to. Thank you for staying and sharing your joy, and sometimes hardships of your marriages.
I have seen the posts about separated people. When I was young, I dated on 2 separate occasions women who were separated and going through a divorce. In both cases, the relationship ended when the divorce became final...
Probably more due to you being such a baby then than anything else
Like everything, many exceptions, particularly, and not necessarily based on age. Two I can think of immediately. One couple met while the man was still married, and they essentially had an affair, then got married, and he raised yet more children. The other were 2 people in their 40's. The woman was going through a horrible separation. The man remained by her side nurturing her. I understand even gave her baths. I saw them last year, 15 years after she first cried on his shoulder. And she made it known to all that she did many more things as well! He lapped up all the attention, 'coz he was normally quiet as a church mouse! For onlookers and her family, you couldn't have had more of a mismatch. She was this hot blooded, fiery woman, and he was a meek and mild OH&S officer!
But granted. Warning bells are to be heeded and carefully considered.

have to put in my two cents on this one, havent read the whole thred as of yet, but I have found several mentions to status of late, there are some like me that have in their profile seperated, for me its simple, compleat honesty, my devorce is not final yet, so I cant be that, sence her new boyfriend is living with her Im not exactly married, so were dose that leave the ones like me? not devorced, not married, not single.......... just in limbo I guess

It leaves you where you want to be?
You are the only one that truly knows. I don't mean to sound cryptic, but you are.
Being/feeling married, while formal separation/divorce has not yet occurred, then becomes definable in terms of a state of mind and heart.
rolltideroll: Alright people is it not odd to find happliy married people on a singles dating site. Sounds like trouble.
I agree. But what about if they are divorced but still live with each other...Just curious. Maybe they are trying to work it out again? Maybe just using this to have someone who likes going out and such or something?

How else?
well for me, the state of mind and/or heart is single, again/devorced, there was no thought of reconcelation, been almost a year, will be a done deal next week, I hope, but the thing is, it is hard to date/meet women when ya still have that hanging over you, likewise I am not sure I would see someone who was not devorced, see I was cheated on and would not do it to anyone. mostly these days I just feel alone, CS is a good cure for this, though.

yes, I can appreciate that it still was hard dating, with that final 'done deal'. Nonetheless, at least you were able to confidently convey that you were 'emotionally' unmarried.
Your behaviour would also have reflected that. That is, behaviour matched state of mind.
Give yourself time to adjust to your newfound 'single' status, and all that it might represent for you.
Read before attacking people..I wasn't on line when all of this was going on..and I am glad I wasn't Cause I myself know how to be harsh on words too you know..
Why would I have anything against married ppl, or anyone for that matter? And why you would think that it's beyond my understanding..
We were talking about married ppl with hidden status who try to pick up singles..
But I guess someone needed to unload something, and I was the closest target
Even though this was not the case, still there are a lot of times I don't agree with somebody or don't like a thread, so I stay out of it, don't go attacking ppl just because they have an opinion..
I am just so disappointed to see this thread becoming so hostile..
And really there was no reason for it from my point of view..
Everything was fine yesterday when I was on this thread, and we were discussing different point of views without anyone being attacked..it's called difference of opinions and there's nothing wrong with that..

What's upsetting me is that I made my self clear and even apologized to one person who felt offended by it and explained myself over and over again what I meant..And more explanation would just look like a broken record..

Sorry kamelia. I don't want to be a pain in the butt, but it does bother me you are so upset.
Perhaps it might be useful to email that person privately, off thread?
