Firaslion... it's a phrasal verb... to rip someone off means to con someone. Daniel; it's a good investment, it's about the only thing that's worth investing in these days!Make a wish for me
Hi zweet I guess women=handbags!!! Well no ex of mine has ever really bought me something expensive- hahaha!! Anyway, I can't believe that.... she said he was cheap, jeez. I had a friend who just expected her boyfriends to buy her expensive gifts... and may the best man win!
Zweet, I completely agree with you! A lot of people want this lifestyle without the sacrifices and hard work that go with it. If I wanted to have an expensive item, like a handbag (my weakness!!) I'd want to work hard for it so I get a reward for it, not like oh look who's 'buying' me. While a lot of others are happy to be bought and then be so stupid as to brag about it!
@10K maybe because we like travelling... who knows? If it bothers you then don't go near them. @Frank toodle pip,my ol' chap, hope life is treating you well this fine day.
Hi Placebo Do you really think so? I'm not so sure, the ones I've seen aren't so happy. They are happy with the purchases and the lifestyle but they don't seem to have that tranquillity that true happiness brings (but hey, neither do I!)
I really like this. It really reflects our materialist society, many people are in relationships as a convenience, or to live up to some 'ideal' if they have the good looking man/woman with the great job, go on holidays every year, wear expensive clothes then they will be satisfied and accepted by their peers. I actually pity these people because they must feel numb inside. As someone once said to me, you don't wake up in the morning to a pile of bank notes.
Hi Lana, I like what you've written, it makes sense. I think it's a matter of if we're sure of ourselves. I mean if we search a partner who (we feel) is more attractive, intelligent, richer or whatever than us then we does it help us with our self confidence or does it damage it. I suppose it depends on the personality of each one and the strength of the relationship.
Hmm, I try not to be caught up in it... but sometimes the same signs just keep coming up. I am Leo with Scorpio/Sagittarius ascendant... if you know your stuff, it says it all.
@Virgo: One man may hit the mark, another blunder; but heed not these distinctions. Only from the alliance of the one, working with and through the other, are great things born. Good idea! I'm ok thanks, how are you?
Goodwoman... do what you think is best. If you feel it's going to be good for you, why shouldn't you? Life's too short to sit around thinking 'what if'! If you do decide to do it, good luck!!
I appreciate your opinion, but I don't agree with it. This is a result of men not respecting women nor the feminine role. We live in a world where a man goes to work and that's it... a woman has to be a mother, a wife, go to work etc and she is STILL seen inferior to a man. Men need women like women need men, ying and yang. Mutual respect and equality is imperative for a loving, healthy relationship. ps the word obedient...I really don't like the use of it in this case. Sorry, but you wanted a response!
I really don't know if it's possible... I suppose we should think positively and treat others how we wish to be treated in the hope that one day it will happen. I think if we go through the bad times and people we will come out of it being a stronger person. Keep your courage up and if it's your dream it'll come true one day soon
You looks to have a slight case of spam on your profile (some bloke left you a shout out) anyway, I know where you're coming from, I have had some weirdos mail me too. Just keep your wits about you!
Just a thought
Yash, another great quote... all I can say... typical Scotsman (Burns, of course!!!!)
