May i suggest you reconsider your attitude here! Only a small percentage of members post in the forums and blogs. Whilst the vast majority observe. Over time you can learn a great deal about someone through their various postings. And i'm convinced that many "sink or swim" on the strength of this. So the forums and blogs are a great way of presenting yourself on a grand scale! Make use of this opportunity in a positive way!
Congratulations.. You have been hoisted by your own petard. With reference, the comment to Green Tassels.. "Your funny" should in fact read "you're funny".
If you really want answers.. Don't deal in absolutes. The inclusion of one word.. ie "some" men. This way you are far more likely to get "answers" to your questions. Rather than merely be "criticized" for your questions.
We all make mistakes, either delliberately or unintentionally. But neither gender has cornered the market.
I think it's also a matter of "volume".. If you spend all your time saying yes/no to people, you may find time for little else. So it's just easier to ignore and move on.
thanks tijuana.. just to reitterate. i don't question your motives. just be mindful that many will look briefly at your profile without nessissarily taking in any salient information. however we try, albeit in complete sincerity to present ourselves. there are sadly those who will ignore the truth and form their own misguided conclusions.
Judge yourself by "your own", and not someone else's standards. They "do not", and "have not" lived your life. Just remember that the standard by which you measure others, is how you're most likely to be measured in return. Sometimes it's hard to be gracious with people. Especially with those who though "opinionated" display no admirable qualities themselves. You have indeed shown great strength of character in surviving the many traumas in your life. And for this you have my utmost admiration and respect. So do not allow any seed of bitterness to take root in your heart. Or you will be in danger of embodying the very things to which you are apposed. The key to any lasting and rewarding friendship is to give what you're expecting.. rather than expecting to be given. Respect is not a birthright but something we "all" have to earn.
