RE: I had to say this ..

OMG Talk about insanity...What on earth would I do with a guy that is young enough to be my son...Babysit. Ugh

RE: Forums and Finding the One ..

Thank you Riya

How so very true I have found that to be. I've experienced that scenario before.

Yes I have also seen what I don't want. Hence the reason for my lack of expectations

RE: Forums and Finding the One ..

I can only speak for myself, but I know there was a time when I was naive not that long ago. I've been on this site for 2 years, and I've seen people come and go, relationships blossom and end, I've also seen them blossom and begin the fairytale and get married.

I don't have any expectations today of finding the love of my life and riding off into the sunset. I've met and/or spoken to a few guys that were all they seemed cracked up to be, but they just weren't for me. I've also been through the horror stories too.

I guess you could say I'm picky, but in all reality I'm not. The first thing that he needs to be is honest and genuine. Then he has to have the ability to be himself. If he can't be himself, then why would I want him in my life. (To thine own self be true). There are times to joke, there are times to be serious then there are times to be seriously funny.

I know that I have the ability to sympathize, empathize and be helpful in many situations today. Do I wear my heart on my sleeve? Sometimes, I don't hide from feelings these days. We've all had life happen and some of us just have had life happen more than others. It's what we choose to do about it that's the key. I don't choose to live in my past, nor do I choose to sit on a "pity pot" and do the "woe is me" routine. I get up, dust myself off and say "Ok what can I do different" or "wasn't that fun". Today I try not to repeat the same things and expect different results. That would be utter insanity. If it's wrong the first time, it's going to be wrong the 2nd, 3rd or how ever many more times I try to do it.

Finding a suitable partner...Who knows. I think my picker is broken. I do know that it's a combination of the heart, mind, body and soul being in total and complete agreement with one another. I thought I had found that once, but I was wrong. One part didn't agree and I'm still trying to figure out which one it was.

Life's too short to worry about things...Just live it and let things happen in their own time.

I'm done rambling now...Great topics tonight Riya! You and Lion are both on a roll.

RE: Why Is It That?.....

Agreed, but as Goose said, it's about monopolizing the "free money" that the prisons get for housing all the prisoners. All that revenue would be lost. I have no pity on them personally, but most of us know that the US government is so corrupt that they should all be in prison. Then you'd also have a situation where you'd have a sudden increase in the outside population with no housing or jobs for these people that are set free from prison and you'd have a high increase in the welfare system.

There could very well be a way of doing it so it's not a complete chaotic mess but I'm not sure my brain has that capacity at the moment.

RE: Help find the missing dog

RE: Help find the missing dog

That was cruel

RE: Why Is It That?.....

They'd lose money on the fines that they charge. Not to mention all the people that have been put in jail would no longer be legitimately there and they would have to release them. I'm sure there's a million other excuses they'd make up.

RE: Answer a question with a question....

Was I asking you anything?

RE: Why Is It That?.....

You always did bring up good topics

I don't think anyone realizes that if it were legalized how many jobs it would create, not to mention resolve the deficit here in the US. A friend of mine wrote up something on it, maybe I'll see if I can get it and post it. It's quite logical.

I don't think I'd ever smoke the stuff again, but still when you look at the benefits it would have on the economy. why not legalize it.

RE: How to survive being bashed and blocked.

Well said Leo.

I wish I had seen it sooner because I would've defended it. Being an EMT for 18 years, it has taught me a lot of things and that's one of them. I do hope he sees this thread and comes back.

It's good to see you Leo

What do you collect?

I looked at them, but they're too cartoonish. I prefer something on the more realistic side. But thank you.

What do you collect?

I wish I could find paintings such as that here. They're very rare and if you do find them I surely can't afford them. One day though

What do you collect?

I didn't mention my extensive crystal collection or my collection of tarot and books of the mystical sort

RE: Free Kittens

That's Great

RE: please say something to make me smile i've had a rubbish day!!!

Here ya go...

These 2 horses walk into a bar and they each order a beer. The bartender sets the beer down in front of them and says so...































Why the long faces?

I know it's bad I thought it was better than telling you I was sitting here naked

RE: For lenababi-Truth or Truth thread

This thread is just way too funny...Interesting too

RE: how bad you are??????

Ain't that the truth

What do you collect?

Almost all of us collect something...Coins, knick-knacks (specific types), stamps, animals, dolls, cars etc. What do you collect?




As for me...I collect mice (not the live ones thank you), stuffed animals, butterflies, dragons, faeries, and gnomes

RE: how bad you are??????

The only thing I can say to this is.....


When I'm good, I'm REALLY good....When I'm bad......




































I'm even BETTER

RE: Answer a question with a question....

Can we find more places to look?

RE: Answer a question with a question....

Seek and ye shall find. Is that not the answer to all questions?

RE: What's in a name?

That's actually what I meant to type but it didn't work that way Stupid typos

I understand completely why you would favor those names. It's good to have relatives such as that

RE: What's in a name?

May I ask why they are your favorite names?

RE: What's in a name?

Well my father demanded that my name be Christine Marie. I don't recall the reason why. But since he wouldn't agree to anything else...After I was born my mom and my aunt sat in my mothers hospital room for 8 hours deciding on how to spell my name. Hence it became Cristyne.

I've always been told that other aunt had always said that I was going to be a special child and that I was chosen to be just that. Unfortunately she passed on when I was about 17 months old, so I only know part of what she had said. She was a wise woman in many ways, I wish I had been able to know her growing up.

RE: Tell us about your pets or what kind of pet you've always wanted.

I would've loved to have seen and heard that.

Crows and ravens are 2 of the most intelligent birds. If you listen to them, you can actually tell by their tones if they're happy or if there's danger. It's quite interesting.

RE: Tell us about your pets or what kind of pet you've always wanted.

Not at all. They are very sweet. Mischievous, but very sweet

RE: HAS ANYBODY GOT ANY BAD HABITS ?

If I told you all of my bad habits, then I'd lose my status

RE: Tell us about your pets or what kind of pet you've always wanted.

Do stuffed animals count

I've always wanted a black panther or a raven...Though I highly doubt that I'll ever have either one

RE: HOW HONEST ARE YOU ? IF YOU FOUND A MILLION US DOLLARS THAT BELONG TO AN OLD LADY WOULD YOU GIVE IT

You can try to do bodily harm, but remember I'm younger and can run faster.

You can look for your next ex wife...I'll just empathize and sympathize for her.
