...and Pepps, I am Robert so that means that I am calling me you. This is getting almost too mind bending for all 10 of my personalities to keep straight.

what would you rather do?

I know one thing Pepps, I know Robert is you and you are Robert.

what would you rather do?

Hello Pepps, I am now talking to you as Johnny. Robert should now be satisfied with why you watch so much tv. As me too, I am satisfied too. That is odd, Robert and I are satisfied together. But, if Robert comes on here, he might not say he is satisfied so that might even be more confusing. I cannot wait to see what my deep sub-conscious entity has to say about your response. BTW, I do agree, with you, Robert is way too nosey at times. Does that make me you too Pepps?

what would you rather do?

Hello Robert,

Or should I say, hello me? If you are me and I are you, that would mean that you are then me and I am then you. And, I am over there and yet I am over here and you are over there and then you are over here. That would have to mean that you are me and me you too. But Robert, we can only lie for so long here. You know you are me and I know me you. Or Robert, should I say that I can only lie for so long before I am you and you are me so we are me?

Anyway, I am sure we can get this all figured out in time.

But the more pressing question at hand like you or me asked....is about Pepps. Well, maybe Pepps can elaborate more on that inquiry that we/me/you have?

That is depressing to think that I (Johnny) had a movie that was promoted by you (Robert)...only to discover it was myself doing the whole works.

Is that possible Robert, that we are the same person and we don't even realize it? Can you imagine, we may have actually discovered something new for science to investigate?

what would you rather do?

Sla, that is good stuff.

What I have noticed in my life. When I was in a relationship and doing a different thing in my life, I noticed I made a whole different type of friends, but the context of time shared with them was/is different than how the time is shared with my other close friends.

Anyway, very good advice.

Oh yeah Maya, addressing the Robert is me and I am him thing. Other than hearing it from Palm and now you, I have not heard that before. Robert and I seem to compliment each other well with your thoughts and writing here online. We both know each other well, I think anyway, after years of having fun together on each other's blogs. But, he is a perfect example of disappearing at times. Your assessment is correct though, we do have two different writing styles and thought processes. In addition to that, we are two different people. Unless, I have the ability to also shape-shift and the universe is much more complex when it comes to consciousness than I suspect (which no doubt it probably is)....and without me even realizing it I am logging on here as Robert and writing what is seemingly coming from Robert. Hmmm....I wonder.

I appreciate you two ladies for bringing this up. Isn't it something how false rumors spread?

what would you rather do?

Maya,

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with online virtual relationships. Something tells me that information might very well be useful to some people. You are right, I have experience some of what you said yourself. For example, a friend just up and disappears. Do you think having a very close friend in the physical world would be the answer for you? I know for me, when I am out with very close friends (they can be male also) my mind is more engrossed in the experience that we are sharing (it could be just driving down the road talking), therefore removing any feelings of lonliness. I do not necessarily get that feeling of chatting with friends online....although, sometimes I do. But, it is more consistent when experiencing friendship in real physical form. Maybe as you explain in your comment, deep down inside, one feels they do not really know the online connection, thus the bond is not as meaningful or deep.

Ash, I am starting to see how you know that the practice of retention is not as wide spread as some would wish it to be. So about the laundry area, one could use their imagination.

what would you rather do?

Just don't introduce her to Robert.

what would you rather do?

Hello Blue....I agree. Those events are much more meaningful when shared with other people. They still can be enjoyable....but not as much meaningful. ....maybe....what I think anyway....sounds like you too.

what would you rather do?

I would have suspected different of you Merc. You seem to be a the fitness buff, and you would not want to date somebody associated with a gym. Hmmmm.

what would you rather do?

Ash, that would make a cute main picture of you.....shotgun in hand while off roading in the mud.

I would make a good old Robert Ash. The new Robert does not post blogs as often. Speaking of Robert, where is he now? I should ask myself that I suppose.

what would you rather do?

Ash, who need to leave the house when you have entertainment like that going on? So how do you know they don't practice retention? Have you been spying on them?

what would you rather do?

Mai, I do agree with you. In order to do something, it would be preferable if you enjoy it...and have interest to do it in the first place. Good advice.

what would you rather do?

Hello Sweet, I do enjoy doing those things alone too, but it is much better to share those events with others. I like your idea of becoming evolved in events and perhaps even doing some volunteer work. Good ideas.

what would you rather do?

PK,

I have done all those things myself....and there is nothing wrong with them. In fact, they are enjoyable...and I am going out to a restaurant here shortly alone. However, they are much more enjoyable with somebody. Ah-ha...that is it. The missing piece. Perhaps a partner is what many of us need?

Yes....you mention about rides in the fields on the road of course, those are enjoyable as well.

Good stuff PK.

what would you rather do?

Exactly Maya....a gym is not everyone's cup of tea. There has to be more out there. You have any ideas?

what would you rather do?

Pepps, that is great. It sounds like what you are doing you enjoy. I think that really is the bottom line to each and every life.....the "pursuit of happiness."

Maybe you and Robert can write a book called, The Pursuit of Happiness with Wasps and Bees.

You two can provide some selfies together?

what would you rather do?

Merc,

I do agree with balancing....not to much isolation and not too much socialization. I think it boils down to what extent you are an introvert or extrovert. I once heard an introvert needs alone time to recharge their batteries....so to speak.

what would you rather do?

Ash, it sounds like you better get a bullet proof vest around your place and stay away from those six packs.

what would you rather do?

I think so too Georgia. I have seen it where people create their social life around sitting behind the bar drinking countless beers. It seems to me, that they can sit there all day drinking, and not even be drunk. ....that is a lot of alcohol acclimation going on there. I have seen it many times, people who live that lifestyle...in their mid-60's, their liver gives out...and they are no longer around. I almost wonder if they are not actually okay with going that way. I know that is not the life I want to lead of live....but, to each their own I suppose. There has to be things out there more meaningful, exciting, worthwhile, than just drinking one's life away. But....maybe not.

Molly, I have never heard of that game before. I am guessing there was some sort of point system to keep track of the winner?


Doc.....

what would you rather do?

no

what would you rather do?

I would not mind corn holing with a chick tonight.

what would you rather do?

I thought so Molly, but it seems as if colleges are incorporating it as an actual sport.

what would you rather do?

Bear....indeed. :)....and good for you.

what would you rather do?

You know Cic, that is a great idea. In the past, I was a member of many gyms. Now that I live in the area I do, the gym is about an hour drive (there and back). There are days I would have the extra time for the travel and days I would not. So, I decided to work on putting a gym in my home. The down fall to that, you don't have the opportunity of meeting people. I honestly think a gym is probably the best place I know of when it comes to meeting people. Hmmm....now you got me wondering if my philosophy of saving time and money in the long run is really worth it.

what would you rather do?

Molly, I love being on the go to and out and about doing things outdoors. Unfortunately, my job has me tied inside many moments of my life on this computer. But, I am nearing the process of starting my evening here away from the house.

what would you rather do?

Also good stuff Daniela. To answer your question, no....there are not only two options. The more people respond, the more options will appear.

what would you rather do?

Did you know that most people don't even know they are depressed?
