I know that I backed off from one that was pushing too hard to get me to "admit" I had feelings for him because he was just blindly giving his feelings away for me (supposedly)...where I wasn't going to commit to anything like that until I'd had the chance to meet him. That chance never came because I wouldn't just blindly give in to him and he couldn't understand my reluctance (his first time "supposedly" of ever doing online dating). I keep saying supposedly because I'm not 100% certain that he was genuine.
I don't ever say it unless I mean it. I've told relatives that I love them (parents, grandparents, my boys)....but I don't use it in everyday conversation. Now if I'm writing a letter I will close it with "love"... if it's someone I'm in a relationship with then they'd get an "all my love" (like on a card)....but closing emails on here & other places I don't use it...I'll use "laters" or "nite" or "cya".......SO...If I use "love" you'll know I mean it as LOVE....lol
Back at the beginning of this there were a bunch of people all energized & excited about starting diets, work outs & plans to get in better shape & lose weight....sort of supporting each other....maybe they've all stopped already...lol
Just wait until you start having fun with shoving images in....lol There's a thread hanging around about signature pictures. A few of us were having too much fun in there...lol
Tumpa, you could also just type the instruction from the left if you don't want to keep cutting & pasting. But in the 2 ways to quote...where they say "text" that's where you'd highlight, copy & paste the section you're wanting to reply to...
I haven't had those comments made to me....but I've made them to younger guys...especially if they're in their 20's & half of them come back with "age is just a number"....yeah, but when I have a 23 year old son...it's too close a number...lol
You have to be old enough to remember Abbott and Costello, and too old to REALLY understand computers, to fully appreciate this.
If Bud Abbott and Lou Costello were alive today, their infamous sketch, "Who's on First?" might have turned out something like this:
COSTELLO CALLS TO BUY A COMPUTER FROM ABBOTT
ABBOTT: Super Duper Computer Store. Can I help you?
COSTELLO: Thanks. I'm setting up an office in my den and I'm thinking about buying a computer.
ABBOTT: Mac?
COSTELLO: No, the name's Lou.
ABBOTT: Your computer?
COSTELLO: I don't own a computer. I want to buy one.
ABBOTT: Mac?
COSTELLO: I told you, my name's Lou.
ABBOTT: What about Windows?
COSTELLO: Why? Will it get stuffy in here?
ABBOTT: Do you want a computer with Windows?
COSTELLO: I don't know. What will I see when I look at the windows?
ABBOTT: Wallpaper.
COSTELLO: Never mind the windows. I need a computer and software.
ABBOTT: Software for Windows?
COSTELLO: No. On the computer! I need something I can use to write proposals, track expenses and run my business. What do you have?
ABBOTT: Office.
COSTELLO: Yeah, for my office. Can you recommend anything?
ABBOTT: I just did.
COSTELLO: You just did what?
ABBOTT: Recommend something.
COSTELLO: You recommended something?
ABBOTT: Yes.
COSTELLO: For my office?
ABBOTT: Yes.
COSTELLO: OK, what did you recommend for my office?
ABBOTT: Office.
COSTELLO: Yes, for my office!
ABBOTT: I recommend Office with Windows.
COSTELLO: I already have an office with windows! OK, let's just say I'm sitting at my computer and I want to type a proposal. What do I need?
ABBOTT: Word.
COSTELLO: What word?
ABBOTT: Word in Office.
COSTELLO: The only word in office is office.
ABBOTT: The Word in Office for Windows.
COSTELLO: Which word in office for windows?
ABBOTT: The Word you get when you click the blue "W".
COSTELLO: I'm going to click your blue "w" if you don't start with some straight answers. What about financial bookkeeping? You have anything I can track my money with?
ABBOTT: Money.
COSTELLO: That's right. What do you have?
ABBOTT: Money.
COSTELLO: I need money to track my money?
ABBOTT: It comes bundled with your computer.
COSTELLO: What's bundled with my computer?
ABBOTT: Money.
COSTELLO: Money comes with my computer?
ABBOTT: Yes. No extra charge.
COSTELLO: I get a bundle of money with my computer? How much?
ABBOTT: One copy.
COSTELLO: Isn't it illegal to copy money?
ABBOTT: Microsoft gave us a license to copy Money.
COSTELLO: They can give you a license to copy money?
ABBOTT: Why not? THEY OWN IT!
A few days later:
ABBOTT: Super Duper computer store. Can I help you?
Think I might check around and see if any place around here would do that. My laptop has Vista and it's been pretty glitchy...although I was able to load up Office 2007 onto it and so far that seems to be working. But there's been times on bootup when I get a scratchy blue screen (blue with white "snow") and it reboots itself. The other day it didn't recognize the AC adapter that's been plugged in....lol I really prefer XP which is what I use on my PC and at work.
I'd say it's either time for a new machine or upgrade your operating system. I hated '98, it was always crashing...2000 & XP are good...still having issues with Vista.
Wish I could, but my yard is no where ready for a dog. The fence is falling down on one side & not much better on the other side, and there's no gate at the end of the house in the carport to keep one in the back. Wish I knew someone in her area.
Hey...no stompin on my hometown team...lol I stick with them like I stuck to my high school team even though we got skunked 76-0 in the bicentennial year...lol Chargers & Padres will always be number 1 with me, not matter if they win or lose.
Friday...Friday....lol Did my 3 miles today when I got home. Wore the slightly skinner jeans without having to lay on the bed to get them zipped... Tomorrow is Saturday, a day off from working out, but think I'm going to be doing some work in the yard if it's not raining.
You'll also catch yourself reaching for your glasses, or making the motion to push them up your nose....don't remember how long it took me to break that habit....lol
Guess it's been said several times already....I'm comfortable with being single....but I'm also ready for a relationship. I've had my time of doing what I want, when I want...I'd like to go back to sharing and hope that it's better than the first time around.
