RE: Can you solve this riddle ???

OMG, I am not quoting well or something. Perhaps it is a sign I need to be doing something else. I'll be back later...... ugh!

RE: best accent

I was told us Californians have an accent. I don't understand that one, but we do say the word "Like" a lot.

I like elvish accents, but you probably never heard it before. Just kidding, I am typing random things. Oh! If anything a Californian accent might be like a Mexican accent, because you have to be bi-lingual to order at a fast food place sometimes and I suppose it can rub off on you.


Before you all jump to conclusions, I happen to be like a 1/4 or like 1/2 or something. So don't think I am being mean, I am just saying, sometimes ya dooooooooooo.

RE: Can you solve this riddle ???

Opps, that is to answer the Old Maid question.

RE: Can you solve this riddle ???

Charity is a gift of giving. Much like grandkids and kids giving their loving grandmother a kiss.

RE: Can you solve this riddle ???

Yes! Now what do I get? Oh I know! How about a Keeeez?! laugh

RE: Can you solve this riddle ???

Shoot, I was going to say love too. So instead I will go with a Kiss.

RE: Do we control our own destiny

Excellent response. You are a very wise person I see both spiritual and intellectual.

RE: Do we control our own destiny

Can roads not be lain before you explore? Could soil not be rich, before you farm?

I believe it is possible to make your own destiny, although there could be many roads in life already built to predetermine the outcome. We did not decide to breath before there was air, the air already existed before and allows us to breathe. The same goes for pretty much everything that wasn't man made. Now with people interacting in everyday life, we are all responsible for each other. Our actions affect the lives of others in a sense.

Maybe this is just A truth and not THE truth. But for me, all things in which I have learned prepared me for something new in my life as if it were supposed to happen. I no longer believe in coincidence, because things have meaning.

RE: I'm tired!

Sorry to hear you are not doing so well. It is better to be balanced, as we all know too much of anything can be harmful, either to you or others.

RE: Which of the 7 deadly sins applies to you?

For me, all of the above. I am God's dirty little penny.

RE: If you can help ???

Mmmmm........... That sounds good...... LOL

RE: I'm having a problem

Yeah welcome to the club buddy. The thing is, do you really want to meet a woman online? Wouldn't you rather meet one in person? I mean, yeah... Online isn't so bad, but you really don't know what you are getting into and if anything your hopes in a person are better from meeting one in person, than someone many many miles away.

Just keep your eyes out, laugh, make friends, state you opinions and keep you chin up. The things worth keeping are the ones worth working for.

RE: I would really like to know?????

Well, guys can be unaware. I cannot tell if women are showing interest in me unless it is obvious. To women, they can get where they expect a man to "Just Know" things too, in order to be fair. But the thing is, when someone is hurting, I sympathize, yet I do not know the best way to handle things. I will admit, that when it comes to my time, I can be a bit selfish, as I learned from experience, to not let anyone make you feel bad or guilty into doing something, because I have always paid the ultimate price. So now I do whatever I want and can care less about what anyone tries to make me do or feel.

On the same side, I have people who only come to me in need. This does get annoying and when it happens, I wish to not be there. Needy people especially! I already know I am a man, I do not need a needy woman to come to me when she is in distress to validate myself as a man. That is the absolute worst thing anyone can do. When someone is needy, there is already a problem. How often do you go to buy a car that is already in need of repair prior to purchasing it? Hardly ever.

Only one with knowledge, experience, and willing to put fourth the time and effort will seek out those classic beauties. The average person will learn to love what they have in time, and make those same sacrifices. If someone is needy, perhaps they must mend themselves before taking on a task like love, for love is not given, it is practiced.


Not saying you are needy, I am just making a statement. Hope this helps.

RE: Past relationship

My ex and I met by accident. In fact I was talking to her friend and when her friend's ex came back into the picture asking for another try, I told her I would not stand in the way of love. So feeling bad, she introduced me to my ex. I was 21 at the time, as her friend, but she lied to me and told me her friend was 19 when in fact I later found out she was 17. Anyways, we were together and effortlessly we grew closer and closer until one day she asked me if she was my girl and I was so excited to hear that, I smiled and replied with a yes.

She was a dream come true, as my family and friends adored her. We had our ups and downs like any relationship, although the fact she was young posed a problem. We did not see eye to eye. My experience, vs her understanding. That caused a lot of arguments.

We were together for 3 loving years until she started wanting to go out again, which was fine, but this time she was being brought home by other guys. Me, having trouble with insecurities then, would try to fight these guys, not trusting in her and such. She was a good girl though and now that I grew myself can look back and see that there was no reason to distrust her. Although I did let her go, because we broke up too many times and I told her that I loved her enough to let her go.

She respected that and we were friends until she started talking to a guy I knew who would do her wrong, plus he has an std. She didn't want to believe me and thought I was being jealous. He ended up telling her about his std and if that girl has any sense, they didn't do anything. She thought he was perfect for her, but turns out, they are not together. I had to let her go so I wouldn't worry about her anymore. I can never be with her again, even if we were to cross paths, but I know that she is much happier with her own life. I tried to protect her from mistakes which was wrong of me, she was too young for me (4 years).

RE: The God Concept

Oh ok, now I get it. You just copy and paste information you find on the internet. LOL Well....... They say don't believe everything you see on tv, and I believe even more precautions should be taken while displaying information from the internet.

Just my opinion, sorry if I offend you.

RE: Are you afraid to fall in love again.

Few people may claim to be afraid to fall in love. Even fewer may actually be afraid. However my question is....... If someone is afraid....... Why are they active on here? I mean, yes, maybe for entertainment or for friends, but this is also a dating site, and subconsciously are seeking. So I suppose the fear can be measured, which comes down to "Does what you say amount to what you feel?".

I do also notice that people say this and do it for a less aggressive approach. These are usually the people who are the needy, but not all, or at least if so, it can change.

I am not afraid to fall in love to answer the question. I still love someone, and it would be nice to have that again to where it would work. Even though I loved this girl, I had let her go to display my real love for her and to do what is right. To stay together was unfair and selfish to both of us.

Somethings got to give.

RE: Tell me this much..

People also make profiles to seek attention without intentions on seriously looking, which defeats the purpose. At the same time, they also do it for self esteem, as they are the true fishers of compliments. I see so many people on this site that are like that, it makes me sick. Heck, I might even be one of them...... Then again, I dunno. I haven't really got into serious conversation with anyone on here nor anyone where something can actually happen. I am open to getting serious, but so far it hasn't come my way. So...... yeah....

RE: help.......

Water, Tomato Juice, and if you really feel like you are going to die, then....... oh wait, you said last night..... just drink a lot of water. Sometimes 1 beer will help also. If your stomach is bothering you, try to eat bread so it can soak up everything, and if you are going out drinking and you want to do so socially, but not wish to get drunk. Then try taking a few tums (chew-able) before the night of drinking.

More like RE-Introducing myself

Decided to be a little more active on here in hopes to make new friends. I am more comfortable with traveling now and have future plans to leave California........ or not..... I haven't decided 100% yet.

Anyways, I am Faustino. I will come in time to time and see how everyone is doing and provide the best advice as I can for those hopeless romantics out there. I really enjoy helping others with advice as well as entertain others with laughs. Don't worry, I am always successful. LOL Alright, well it's good to see there are a lot more members than when I used to be very active on here and I guess I will talk with you all soon. Or as soon as you make yourself known I suppose.

RE: How do you recognize a player?

Finding a player is like finding a liar. I guess you have to trust your instincts.

RE: what is love????????????

What is love? Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more. LOL





Love means many different things to everyone. I like the way the Bible describes love.


*******************************************************
LOVE 1 Corinthians 13

1If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.

4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

8Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. 11When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. 12Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

13And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Regardless if you believe, you have to admit, that is pretty darn sweet and seems almost inarguable.

RE: do rewards increase productivity in the workplace?

This happens because there is no real guarantee. I have worked in several places that promised incentives, and didn't give much to anything because of business being slow. So my work and efforts only got me a pat on the back. People want to just get paid more, because if they get a pay cut, then they leave if they don't like it. Versus incentives (which is like a company allowing them to put the blame on you if you don't make enough) where you have to work harder for smaller things. Most people just want a paycheck anyways.


Let's face it, we all know there is money to be made out there. Those who will work hard for that extra money is the people who go door to door. Those who try to sell you cologne in the parking lot. Now compare those number of people to those who "play it safe" in a company that already gives you a somewhat decent pay, with a steady increase pending on your seniority.


Then again, I am not much of a business man. I would like to just think I have good ideas for business. I just try to get in the minds of how others think and how they can justify their actions.

RE: Smoking should be banned in all public places

Actually you are wrong. I am religious, but by religious I am not a fanatic. I admit that I do possess my own ideals. However by religious, do you mean believe in God? Of course I do. In fact I am a born again Christian. Do I agree with other Christians? No. Although whatever other people do is of no concern of mine, unless it is my own children (that I will own day have... hopefully) and I am trying to protect them. Because as a man, I would be responsible for my own household.

Try to take a joke and laugh at things, you will live longer, I promise you.

RE: long distance relationship

LOL

Why thank you Dear! LOL grin

RE: Bad

Yes, in this case, you must give more detail.

By philosophical ideal, whatever is bad affects a society in a negative sense. Whatever benefits is considered good. Bad is also looked at as the absence of good.


I suppose being someone who is giving can get out of hand when they are taken advantage of. Then when they refuse to be who they were, others look at them as being bad, because they hold them to that expectation. I guess when someone is tired of doing good and wants to focus more on themselves or be vindictive in some sense?

This is the best answer I can give based upon your question.

RE: I have a foreigner interested in me

Well you appear to be a very beautiful woman. I doubt he is only interested in you for citizenship. I do however feel that because you are older (psyche says this) he may be looking to have a physical relationship with you and might possibly be incapable of the more serious relationship that you may be desiring. Love was not meant to be complicated, and somehow things just fit right into place when you least expect it.

Keep in mind, this day and age most marriages do not last. So you are going to find lots of young men who are seeking older women (believe it or not) because they have been raised by their mothers alone. Which is understandable, although the problem is they are attempting to bite more than they can chew. Sure it is great and no problem they want an older woman, but can they handle it at their age? As the age gap lessens with age, usually young men do not grow up or find who they are until late 20's to early 30's. Because life demands more of them now, such as obtaining a BA vs how some of you older women only needed a Diploma to land on success.

So with more time being required, it is taking longer to grow up and experience life for what it is. These young people see how their parents were set at an early age and it is hard for them to understand it takes a little longer before they can begin to do those things.

Anyways, I am sure you will do just fine in your decision. Just do not put yourself in a situation you feel uncomfortable in, otherwise your judgment will be blinded by doubt and then all hell breaks loose or will eventually surface after a period of time. You are either humbled with a lesson learned or torn by a waste of time.

Just be careful beautiful... Love will find you.
