So Carl , all that time wasted, a broken heart and love for someone not worth loving at all . Why was that ? have you worked it out yet? ...open heart and closed eyes are a very dangerous thing to have especially when it takes so long for the eyes to become open. It was not the karma to her thats important in this lesson , it is the karma for you i believe . What one person does is not a map for all to do the same , a sensible mind will tell you that . Life has pitfalls , and edges to climb over or ladders to get out. Important thing is to find the ladder . saskia
Hey parti I miss Mayhow , I wonder if she's managed to find that recipe for peking duck pancakes yet ? I don't know who i miss more Amir, Firas or Mayhow .....
I agree with how it must feel good for a man to do that Boysee , but i don't ignore them, i always tell them why I am on my way. So they can learn from it if they care to. I think if they don't show respect thats their problem , but as for me I will show some respect , even if they do the wrong thing , I am not going to run and hide , any kind of revenge even the silence type of revenge you advocate is not good . two bads don't make a right .......saskia
Conga I kinda agree with you, I would always want to preserve my own dignity as well . I am neither jealous or revengeful. I would just move on , and be happy to be liberated . Problem is people get hurt , and obsessed by things they see as having been done wrong to them. Thats when it has bad consequences. People need to recognise it can often be their own fault , what happened to them anyway, simply because they did not have their eyes open wide enough at the right time , or alternatively their own selfish agenda was not met. How people behave in a breakup speaks volumes about themselves I think. saskia
St Elmo , You should have given your wife half the house anyway , so what do u expect , she was being kind letting you live there probably in the first place . Wear it like a man. be generous , not bitter...bitterness and meanness in a man over past relationships speaks volumes about him , and always hinders development of new ones ... Thats what i always see. ..... course the situation might have been very different of course , I am just guessing Elmo so don't get yr jock strap stuck up yr bum crack just yet sweetie.......saskia
Where I come from we also use the word "soul" for the word ""person, so we can say he's a good old soul = he's a good person or he's a tired soul = he's a tired person . So maybe what you read was he is an intellectual person ..... maybe , just a thought ... saskia
Stay here calli , no need to leave us just cos u have a man in your kitchen/bed/life/car/garden/thoughts/church pew........ Better to dump quick stay friends and move on, rather than be miserable trying to make it work for the sake of it .... keep rocking girlfriend......saskia
Oh thanks guys for your help on this great naming day ....... All names are still being considered as we speak .. Mother and babies are doing well , the father of the kittens was "'dustbin" yep thats his name , he's a rather sinewy bandy legged old coot coloured ginger, black and white. who rarely has a bath , probably because he lives in the dust bins. I will be back tomorrow to bore you even further with some photos of the kitties. saskia

I learnt that the smartest thing to do is make an effort to get on with the inlaws.. no matter what they think of you. Make an effort always ..thats the key to peace in a family. I have always been lucky my husbands family were far away mostly , but they respected me always , i was very grateful for that always. saskia
we want a comedian , a good lover, a good provider, a happy man , not a miserable man , we want a man who has had success with his own goals in life , and one who handles life well. We want a man who wants to be with us . someone who treasures us , one who is not selfish or unkind, one who likes to listen , and truly has a need to grow old with us. A man who knows how to talk, when its appropriate to talk , and knows what happiness involves. He thinks of us , we are his joy.... If a man can not be these things to a woman , then what woman should have him..... Then we can give truly of ourselves. ......
Thats a pushy character, do you want that , no ...dont give it another thought or even waste time on pushy personalities , no matter how hot they look . stuff her ,,you deserve more for yourself,,,saskia
You are a wonderful blogger and blog host Jana , I don't get the people who don't get you ....... In fact I think if you were not here I might not be here still. you rock sister ...saskia
Oh and what about your best friend, brother Amir, what is it he does ? umpteen pages of repetitive drivel ... thats not a highjack .... Remember it was you who threw the first stones ..... with your defensive arrogance and false accusations . You slander our lifestyles and our ideas when you cannot accept comments on your own ... defending your fanaticism with your arrogance like a fool.
