RE: Private area..."Shaved or Not?"

I don't shave or trim there, and I don't like it when men do. The last place I want razor burn is all over my mouth area from that, thank you.

As far as what men like, my personal experience has been that those who are truly sensual like it natural, all others like it shaved or trimmed. Personally, I think it's sick to want a woman to look like a little girl, but that's jmho.

RE: which one is better to adopt??

They won't get that from me. If you're wrong, I'll call you on it. And that's what true friends do...they tell you the truth for your own good, not false lauding. If you lose a friend that way, they weren't a true friend anyway and you're better off without them.

RE: which one is better to adopt??

I'd rather be hurt by honesty than mollified by deceit. And I give the same. I don't tell even little lies just to avoid hurting someone...I'm totally honest at all times, that's just how I roll. If you lie, it catches up to you eventually because truth will come out.

RE: Save the mother Earth

Pallets are good for making compost bins too.

Yes, it takes time, but every bit helps. As it is, I do what I can here right now. I recycle everything I can, I replaced most of the things that use water with energy efficient ones (my water company actually came out to make sure my water meter was working properly after I did that, ), the lights I use most and leave on longest have CFLs in them. The rest don't because then it's a waste of energy to have them. I take very little trash out of my home because I do my best to recycle and reuse items, and most food goes in the compost or in the garbage disposal system. If I had a fireplace or some kind of stove that I could use shiny paper trash in, I wouldn't throw that out either. I use cloth bags when I shop unless I'm running low on plastic ones for scooping up the yard after the dogs, then I rebuild my supply for a bit.

RE: Had Enough

I'll miss you.

RE: Would you give up a relationship for your Dog ? if one of them had to go...

That was aimed in general, J. And good for you on the quitting and sticking with it.

RE: Would you give up a relationship for your Dog ? if one of them had to go...

Then you're allergic to cigarette smoke. I get stuffed up when I light one too, and that's because I'm allergic. I tested positive for it years ago. When I quit for a couple of days, I use fewer tissues and my sinuses clear up. (And yes, for the record, now that I don't have 4 other smokers living in my house anymore, I'm making my way towards quitting again.)

And yes, we all have a right to our opinions. What we don't have is the right to argue with everyone who disagrees as if our opinion is the only right one and everyone who disagrees with it is wrong.

RE: you love your partner,can you change your religion for him/her

Exactly or at least it's one of them. The other two are communication and trust.

I'm spiritual, not religious, and avoid dogma passionately. I respect the beliefs of others, and probably share some part of them as part of my belief system. What I couldn't live with, and thereby would never have dated, is someone who is dogmatic in their religious beliefs. Those people can't help but preach and attempt to convert all around them. I have some friends like that, but we have agreements about not discussing religion...it's more peaceful that way. Most of the people I surround myself with share similar beliefs to mine though...including my SO.

RE: Would you give up a relationship for your Dog ? if one of them had to go...

One moment, and you'll have mail.

RE: Save the mother Earth

Well, if the limos are hybrids and they recycle all of the water bottles, and use disposable dinnerware made from biodegradeable materials, then they're showing themselves to be living examples of what this summit is supposed to be about. If not, then they're just hypocrites and need to be overthrown and a world-wide grassroots movement started. JMO.

RE: Save the mother Earth

That's the plan Reverse and I have for when my sons are old enough for me to relocate. We're moving west, buying a few acres of land, setting up wind mills and building an earth-sheltered home with solar panels on it. We want to plant our own garden to grow our own organic herbs and vegetables (something I'm already doing here), and even possibly have a goat or two for milk. We want to live as energy efficient and organic as possible, and as self-sustainable as possible.

RE: Save the mother Earth

I agree that's what we need, SF...but many around the world will need to stand up for it against their tyrannical, wasteful governments. I will do that here if it happens that enough wake up and begin the movement for the necessary change in my country.

RE: Save the mother Earth

I presume that's today here then. I'll send positive energy. Thank you for the information.

RE: Would you give up a relationship for your Dog ? if one of them had to go...

Sandals are replaceable, and they outgrow puppyhood. I don't know if you have the same products in Spain that we have there, or I could make recommendations to survive the teething stage without further loss or damage.

Love your new pics, Morgan!

RE: Would you give up a relationship for your Dog ? if one of them had to go...

And it's beautiful, that gift they give. My dogs have already both been through enough emotional trauma. I rescue, so I give new homes to dogs who have already been rejected once for one reason or another, and I'm not making it twice for anyone. Thankfully, I don't need to either...Reverse loves my dogs and gets along well with them, and they have taken well to him also.

If I'd had to have made that choice, I'd still have my dogs. I gave up my last dog because my late husband was allergic and his father was too old and sick for her to join me when I moved in. She got killed by a car not long afterward when she got away from her new family because they didn't pay enough attention to details and she got out.

I vowed I wouldn't do it again when I got Opal, then Jet. I can't live without furries in my life, and these two would protect me to the death if necessary, as I would them. I made it clear we were a package deal, along with my sons...and he accepted the deal.

RE: ROLL CALL ........ARE YOU SINGLE?

Yeah, 29 years of living separately...hmmmm, I'd say the jury is still out on that one.

RE: ROLL CALL ........ARE YOU SINGLE?

Well, that's single and ready to date, isn't it?

I know the feeling, English, but the right one will come along, and she'll be worth waiting for, my friend. I certainly hope so, because you're a great guy who deserves it, as are many others on here.

I wish everyone the happiness I've found.

RE: ROLL CALL ........ARE YOU SINGLE?

Well, Bodle, if you've tried it under the same roof and it didn't work, and you've tried separate roofs and it's still not working, I'd say it's not gonna work.

RE: ROLL CALL ........ARE YOU SINGLE?

In a relationship, very happily so. I'm just here for the forums.

RE: What is Love

I'm also doing well, thank you.

Not on here long today...two of us are taking advantage of all of the others being out of the house and we're cleaning. I've got a lot of houseguests, and it looks like they're here for a few more days than originally planned. It's wonderful to have the love of a special man and the love of good friends in my life, and this is going to be a wonderful holiday season.

RE: What is Love

I agree, Joanne. Good to see you.

Love is a gift.

RE: What is Love

True love is not a temporary state of mind, but otherwise I agree with you. My SO never says the words "I love you," but he doesn't need to...it reverbrates through all of his other words and actions. He has proven that I can bare my soul to him without fear of being rejected, or even of being judged as harshly as I have judged myself. I rarely say those words to him either, but again it reverbrates in all else that I do and say. That is true love...when you don't need the words.

"Saying I love you
Is not the words I want to hear from you
It's not that I want you
Not to say, but if you only knew
How easy it would be to show me how you feel
More than words is all you have to do to make it real
Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
Cos I'd already know

What would you do if my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldn't make things newJust by saying I love you..." (From "More Than Words" by Extreme)

RE: How many CS members enjoy riding motorcycles

One of my favorite trips was to and around San Francisco when I was stationed in Monterey and the guy I was seeing then took me there on his bike. We drove up and down the hills of San Fran in the rain!

But any trip on one is a good one in my books.

RE: The CS Two

I know that feeling, g/f. And thank you. The whole album is on my FB profile. He hates having them taken, but for me he not only allowed it, he goofed around and had fun with it.

RE: Still eating turkey???

We haven't had ours yet. Since nobody was supposed to get off for the holiday until Saturday night, ours is planned for tomorrow. Then they got released Thursday at different times throughout the day, and we found we could have had it yesterday...but that's OK, this way my sons will actually get to share my Thanksgiving dinner with me. First time that's happened in many years.

Happy Holidays, everyone!

RE: What You Do When There Is No Connection On The First Date

If it didn't click for you, it probably didn't for them either. I'd find a nice, tactful way to say it. I had one of those experiences...the physical attraction was there, and we clicked on a mental level, but there was no heart spark. We agreed on that, so we remain friends and were FWBs for a while, until one of us started dating someone else.

I prefer to be treated honestly and fairly, but kindly, which is why that's what I give to others as well.

RE: The CS Two

I'm glad you all had fun! The three of you are three I'd love to meet some day, Morgan.

RE: Does concealing something from your BF/GF mean Lying?

No. Sometimes there are things from one's past that one prefers not to share with anyone. Things we prefer to forget, and never talk about. To conceal those things from a boyfriend or girlfriend, or a spouse, is not a lie. Our past is our past and some of us have skeletons in our closets that we prefer to bury.

Concealing something that you did like cheating on them, that would be a lie by omission because it happened while you were together and has a direct effect on the relationship. Or concealing a purchase you shouldn't make because the two of you couldn't afford it, if your finances are linked, would be a lie, for the same reason as above.

RE: have you lost all hope of a date here,and just log in for some fun?

My answer isn't in your poll choices. I found what I'm seeking, and am just here for the forums, friends, and fun.

Happy Holiday Season, everyone. May you all find what you seek as well, my friends.

RE: I was like to know if anyone could get any car or truck of thier wish what it be.

My dream vehicle is the Mazda CX9. Plenty of room for my dogs, my sons, and cargo, but still drives like a car and provides comfort and conveniences for everyone. And yes, if I won the lottery tomorrow, this is what I'd buy with the check when I got it.
