RE: Lets not forget the meaning of Memorial Day

With all due respect, I don't think we can compare the sacrifices that veterans have made to that of teachers and social workers. I don't have first had experience, but it's been well documented on film and in literature, the nearly unimaginable pain of war.

RE: What is the best way to kill depression?

One more though to share, suffering is natural. And it is irrational to think we can change nature.

Learn to accept it.

Hope that makes you feel better.

RE: What is the best way to kill depression?

Strive to be a psychopath.

I get depressed when I see some people suffering and I can offer any help. That is where psychopaths become my inspiration. They are very real and I've always been of the mindset that I can do anything anyone else can.

Now if your sitting around feeling sorry for yourself, it sounds more like problems with selfishness then depression. If you want to alleviate selfishness, then do some things that are generous and you'll feel better.

RE: If it doesn't feel right. . . .

Well, I don't know then. I would be worried if he seems to change moods like you mentioned. Sounds like he might be putting his best foot forward so to speak. A fake. That is one of the few good things about getting old, you learn how to "read" people. The wisdom. But my biggest concern would be if he started to refer to you as a brother.frustrated

I think that if it was right you would know. You wouldn't be questioning yourself. I'd dump him. When you fall for someone and it's right, you can't get them off your mind. Everything they say is exactly what you think. And even if it's not, you still think it is. That's what I call real love. Unfortunately sometimes the other party doesn't feel the same way and it's all in your head. I think they call it delusional thinking. But you can call it anything you want, it still can feel good while it lasts. I think it's the hope that it brings that makes it feel right even though you can stop and think about it rationally and spoil all the fun, you don't. If we were talking about religion, I think we'd call it faith.doh

Good night and good luck with the boyfriend concerns,
Mike

RE: If it doesn't feel right. . . .

"Always go with your instincts". That may work for woman, but not good advice for man. I try to identify what is instinct and then use some rational thought to control them before I do something stupid.

It sounds to me like she's trying to find an excuse to dump him but she's not sure if she should. But maybe I'm oversimplifying her thoughts. I'm still working on my vibration detector.

111. I love reading your writings and theories. For real. Obviously a lot goes on inside that brain of yours and has been for years.

RE: If it doesn't feel right. . . .

They have a saying in our country and I think it may apply to you...

"You want your cake and to eat it too."

It means you can't have it both ways. Sounds like you love him but your not ready to give up looking for someone else.

So "IF" that is the case, it reminds me of two more saying...

"He who hesitates looses."

and

"Haste makes waste."

Guess you have to pick which saying you like...

Good luck with your choice.

RE: Lets not forget the meaning of Memorial Day

I would agree with anything Drea111 said.love But I would agree with with what she said if anyone else had said it too.

RE: How to bathe a cat

Now that was funny.

Thanks.

RE: Ugh!!

It's instincts kid. Nobody knows why they are, but it explains everything.

We look, we desire, we try to conquer.

There is a silent voice in our heads that tells us your healthy fertile soil to sow our seeds. All this love "stuff" is something societies and cultures have tried to reprogram us with for their own agenda.

Hey at least I'm honest.

But truth be told, you just keep looking, there are those of us that value friendship with equal value. We know we will get old and have wants of the security that comes along with life long companionship and are willing to give the same in return.

good luck, and never give up until you find it.
