You know after giving it some thought, who am I to tell you not to be negative and depressed? Hey, knock yourself out. We all choose our paths and how we live our lives so I wish you luck.
I guess you have something negative to say about my LDR too. Go ahead as it won't dampen my spirits. Yes he is 12 hours away, but at least I am going to try.
Sorry, it wasn't meant to hurt you. Its just all this negative feedback gets depressing. You shoot down every suggestion that anyone has made and find fault. Its as though you have given up. You claim you don't like being alone but you are doing everything to push people away. Do you honestly think you will find someone being so negative? We are all having a hard time meeting people and we are trying to be supportive and keep the positive attitude. Here is a test for you. Each day when you get up, find one positive thing to be happy about. Start with your health and go from there. Again, it wasn't meant to hurt you but enough is enough. Please don't dampen the spirits of those of us that want to stay positive.
I totally agree with you. We have a hugh food bank drive just for our Veterans. I just wish the elderly and Veterans had a whole lot more subsidies than we give them. The cost of living is so darn high and they just can't make ends meet. Yet we have our greedy oil and gas people just raising and raising prices to line their pockets with money while the average person here can barely afford to buy food. I don't get it personally. All about the greed and it seems very few care who suffers for the almighty dollar.
Thank goodness I have alot of warm clothing. I am going to BBQ this afternoon though not in shorts and tshirt, but sweatshirt and jeans. We are a hearty bunch here in the Great white north.
I recently met a truck driver who feels he has to return to school to educate himself because he felt that is what I wanted. I assured him that wasn't necessary. I think if he is happy the way he is then don't change; the song " I love you just the way you are" comes to mind. He is into fitness which is good not because of looks but health issues. People my age are having a lot of cardiac problems which worries me. I think that with the both of us, we both are trying to improve ourselves but it shouldn't be just for the other person; it should be for yourself. If you do it for someone else; you end up resenting that person. I think you do end up changing or improving yourself for your partner but you should feel comfortable doing it; not being pressured into it. I feels its always something you should discuss with your partner not demand it.
Thanks John. I totally agree with you. Too often people are so shallow about looks or they won't date someone that doesn't have a lot of money. I am looking for a good heart; thoughtful man that is gentle and kind. As for money, if he can pay his bills, thats good enough for me. I met a guy a week ago that has lots of money; owns a hummer, mercedes, couple of motorcycles, and he even showed me that he truly owns all this stuff. I wasn't impressed. He had no personality what so ever. I couldn't wait for the date to be over.
you are a wise man my dear. As I said there is no perfect person but I agree there is a person perfect for you. I often wonder what men consider a perfect woman? Guess to each is own. I guess I was stating that he didn't have to be a 10 in looks and body, and didn't have to have a lot of money; just a good man.
Yes, I see them all the time and it breaks my heart. I even took a tour of our local drop in centre to see what they are doing to help the homeless. I am a big advocator of getting affordable housing, proper clothing, and food. Not many days go by when I don't think of the homeless. Wish I could do more but after being unemployed for 6 months, I am trying to recoup but when I do I will more donations clothing and money.
I am not sure what my brother pays as he is using Blue Cross but he tells me he saves thousands of dollars. Myself I am covered fully by the military for the rest of my life, so I am fortunate that I don't have to deal with this issue. Just wish I could find a military doctor close to me; they took the time to properly diagonse you.
I think it depends on what you are looking for. For example I don't think looks, and a perfect body are important. I want a man with a good heart and one that is going to be my best friend. I want to feel comfortable around him and just be myself. I see older men wanting kids, a certain type of body, a certain education, a certain height, etc. I think if you are too specific or picky; of course you won't be a good match to many women. I am a basic gal and looking for a basic guy. Looks, body, and money are not an issue with me, but that is just my opinion for what it is worth.
Our medication is not cheap here. My brother pays over $400.00 a month for diabetic medicine. As I said on a former post, Canada has a high cost of living and the Government is greedy? Do you know they have imposed a wind tax on those using windmills? I can't beleive that. Here are people trying to go green and the government wants more money. Can't win for losing sometimes.
