RE: What do you do when you get upset?

When last you went car shopping gal?

RE: Do you wait?

In the past I would react hastily, but now, as I'm older and a bit wiser, hardly ever do I react immediately, nor do I normally take out my frustration on others. I usually try to avoid the person or situation so that I don't do/say anything to make matters worse, but sometimes I'm not successful with that.

RE: What do you do when you get upset?

I usually try to assess what happened and how I may have contributed to the cause of the upset. If I don't think that I was to blame, then that realization usually helps me to move on quickly. But, if I was even partially to blame, then I mentally reprimand myself and may worry about the situation for a long time. If it is something that I could correct, then I'd try to do so (e.g. apologize, repay, etc).

Being upset with myself isn't always easy to get over...

Is it fair to pursue a relationship abroad, if you have no intention of moving there?

Oh my Condor, that's funny!

As for what you said at the start, I agree with you that it would be highly unfair and duplicitous if you lead the person on without any intention of entering into a real (i.e. physical) relationship with him/her.
The thing is that even if I may not wish to move 'there', but would support he/she moving 'here', then it would not be a case of denigrating or dishonouring that person. Would there?
Hopefully, it would never be a case of luring someone to you, or being lured to someone for evil intentions...unless of course (as you suggested) he/she would welcome being ravaged.

Sounds well-planned. It seems to me that you are both in agreement, and willing to wait until better can be done, which is good. I hope that it works out even better than you planned, and wish you 'good luck'.

Hi Karl, that nice to know. If you all meet and decide to give it a real go, would you move there or would you want her to move to you?

HOW IMPORTANT IS IT TO MAKE A GOOD/GREAT ‘FIRST IMPRESSION’ (esp. in the dating game)?

(If it hasn't been polled yet) How important is 'prayer' to you, honestly...no cynicism please:)

Hopefully she'd have learnt better by then.

Very good point Deedee! So many of us seem to expect 'perfection' from the get go...

That's thoughtful of you LK, and pragmatic too. It's only fair to let them know; give them the chance to decide whether they still want to build a relationship with you...

What are you afraid of?

What about you needs the most upgrade (physically) ?

"You cannot petition the Lord with prayer!"

I disagree with your statement Mrroscoe.

Petition -
verb (petition someone/something for)
present a petition to (an authority) in respect of a particular cause.
"the organization is petitioning the EU for a moratorium on the patent" ·
synonyms:
appeal to · request · ask · call on · entreat · beg · implore · beseech · plead with · make a plea to . pray · apply to · solicit · press · urge · adjure · present one's suit to · importune · obsecrate


There are many examples of God's people petitioning Him with/through prayer. Here are a few biblical examples:

"Hear the petitions of Your servant and Your people Israel, which they pray toward this place. May You hear in Your dwelling place in heaven. May You hear and forgive." (2 Chronicles 6:21)

"Blessed be Yahweh, because he has heard the voice of my petitions." (Psalms 28:6)

"Never worry about anything. Instead, in every situation let your petitions be made known to God through prayers and requests, with thanksgiving." (Phillipians 4:6)

"The real widow, left all alone, has put her hope in God and continues night and day in her petitions and prayers;..." (1 Timothy 5:5)

"And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him." (1 John 5:15)

Have you ever dated outside of your race? If so, what differences did you encounter (if any)?

"RACE is much more than just being 'black' or 'white', 'red' or 'yellow, 'green' or 'blue'; it's really about ethnicity, heritage and culture...dating outside of one's race can be a beautiful thing,"

Much respect Selenite...whatever works for you.

Which 'person' are you? Which is your favourite...pet?

If you had the opportunity to 'vacation' in space, who would you take with you, and why?

Hopefully.
So, your commitment phobia doesn't affect pursuits that you see the value in/of; you just need to make commitments to pursuits of likewise/greater value.
