I don't think I can name just one aftershave I really like. I think it's more about the smell. I like anything that's a woody fragrance...something with clove in it is always good. But as long as he takes the time to smell nice and shave....I'm a happy gal.
I met a homeless kid in the city once, he was busking with his pet rat. The rat could do tricks. I walked over to him and asked him what she could do. He got all nervous and showed me. The rat gave him a kiss, played dead, rolled over and begged. You could tell he was homeless cause he was real scruffy and dirty. I gave him and little 'Ruby' $50. He almost cried in gratitude after he realised I wasn't joking. I don't care if he's gonna go and smoke or drink it, thats up to him. What made my day was seeing this 16 year old kid light up like a Christmas tree when I gave him that amount of money. That and the big hug he gave me after that.
And kind of like that old man I met when I was buying a pack of cigarettes. He asked if I had a spare $5 so he could go eat. I gave him $20 and told him to go splash out. Ok, he probably drank it, but I just wanted to help him out.
I was homeless once too and it was very rare to be shown and given compassion, whether it was money, food or shelter. So what skin is it off my nose to give these people a little bit of money? After all, it never hurts to be kind.
ANZAC biscuits and lots of poetry, visiting the RSL and talking to the old soldiers. Watching Gallipoli in the school library.
And as I grew older I came to love a soldier very much and knowing what he does for his country, the risk he takes, the life he has chosen to lead, made ANZAC day so much more real to me in mch more of a sense then watching Mel Gibson dressed up in a uniform in the dusty old school library.
I have a good friend who I can call to vent my worries and frustrations to. She is the best when I need soemone to listen to me and give me practical advice.
This does, happen, even here. I've had men call me names and say I've been leading them on just because I engaged in a simple conversation with them somewhere.
I've got naturally good skin, so I rarely, if ever, wear make-up. When I do it's usually very bold and not at all subtle. I love deep red lipsticks and black eyeliner penciled on in thick lines. I've been wearing my make up that way since I was in my teens. But I will admit, I don't ALWAYS go on a date with make-up on. Make-up is not a daily part of my routine, so I just don't wear it all the time.I'd still make sure my presentation was neat and tidy. In my experience, most men find it refeshing to meet women who don't wear make-up and use it very little.
I've made some brilliant friends on here, so I like that. I love the forums and the chat too. And I've met...someone interesting...so I'm liking that very much.
I'm not exactly the skinniest girl in the world...I know my weight isn't at it's 'optimum' and I probably should lose some (it fluctuates constantly anyway, I think as is natural for a woman). I have had two boyfriends who didn't 'like' my weight and expected me to change to suit them, but like I said to them, I was like this when you got here so why try and change it now?
As for her taking weight loss pills, she needs to stop. He's controlling her. And that's the thing about abusers, they ALWAYS put on a facade in public that they are nice as pie to thier partner and others, but behind closed doors, your friend could be going through her own personal hell.If she wants to lose the weight for her self, she should do it the right way, with diet change and exersize.
She needs to get him the heck out of her life as soon as she can, in my honest opinion, she could do without that kind of emotional blackmail and sheer douchebaggery of that man.
I'm baaaack
