RE: Would , or could you forgive your partner …

Absolutely not.

Miscommunication

laugh This is true but there are way too many scammers out there, I watched that known show CF, yeah, not doing that thank you.
I do give photos only after I get to know the person so far, I gave it to one guy and he ended up not being who he portrayed to be so now I am even more cautious.
Too many scams that steal your photo then make an account of you then the fake you is getting what you should have and, most likely get you into trouble.
I don't have a photo for caution sake up front not because I am some ugly troll.
I am ok with someone not writing me due to the lack of a photo.
I do believe though that you missed the point of the thread even if you have a good point.

RE: Which Of These Is The Most Important For A Relationship To Last:

If you do not have communication nothing else matters.
You have to want communication in order to understand as well.
So many on here say they want it yet keep it from you then wonder why you get frustrated with the silence.
Communication I have found can be horrible in text form with the absence of emotions shown on the face and especially the tone of the voice one cannot hear.
I could say something with laughter in my voice but reading the words it sounds very harsh or judgemental when in fact, it was not meant like that, that is only an example but it is the wayzzz of our chatting now days and, causes people to go their own ways all due to the lack of facial expressions and tones which=assumptions .uh oh frustrated

RE: Do you find the people on cs with potty-mouths attractive?

Hello,
It does not bother me unless, it is constantly in the place of punctuations.
Saying something like HEdoublehockeysticks is just not going to deliver the punch in a statement if one is feeling...a little more frustrated or angry than that word holds.
If it is a constant, then I would have to assume one is limited on their vocabulary or just too lazy to use it even though it is free.doh

Do you really know you?

Well put and I agree.
The unknown relies on faith & fate in my opinion, fear of the unknown is real but is not tangible but still, we fear the unknown.
Much more accomodating to stay in our boxes, our circles than to face the unknown.
Part of a quote I found and to me, it makes perfect sense:
Fear.
Sometimes it’s a very helpful thing that keeps us from harm.
But many times it’s an inner voice and barrier that keeps us stuck.
That keeps us from getting what we want and becoming who we honestly deep down want to be.

RE: I dip my fries in _______ (you can't say ketchup)

My mouth, with salt and pepper on them mmmm.

Do you really know you?

We all think we know ourselves forgetting that we are also a wee bit biased.
Most of us, including myself at times will think and function inside our boxes that we live in voluntarily, it is more comfortable that way.
I find if someone says something about me and I am unsure and just not seeing what they are seeing, I go to one of my best friends and, my son as they both know me very well then, if I am still not satisfied I go to the big doggy, my sister, she knows me better than anyone else on this earth and, she shoots from the hip with her opinions without hesitation, I trust all three of these wonderful people and feel blessed to have them in my life.
I lived abroad for four years, I was told that it would expand my thinking, of course, living in that box of mine I didn't believe it but I was wrong.
I learned that even though I don't understand something doesn't make it wrong in fact, it prompts me to seek out what it is I don't understand.
So many times in our lives we just don't take that time to understand or, want to.
I was also told once that you have to want to want to understand.frustrated banana

Miscommunication

Hi, I have ran into something that I don't think is thought of very much and I felt the need to bring it to light so all of us can be on the same page, well, hopefully.
When we write OR read words we have to remember that the sender nor the receiver is hearing the tone of voice it was typed in, they are not seeing the expression on ones face nor the gestures that we unknowingly provide were it face to face.
I looked up what it means for miscommunication and the big G gave me this:
What do we mean when we say miscommunication?
Miscommunication ("mis" + "communication") is defined as a social inability to communicate adequately and properly. It is one of many types of communication barriers.
I agree to the above statement, to an extent.
It does not add what I wrote above that and a lot of assumptions are made without the tone, facial expressions and gestures.
Being stuck in one's own box will not allow these thought processes to kick in so it has to be practiced after all, we are biased human beings when it comes to ourselves.
One thing that I forgot about being on one of these sites is exactly what I have written about, lesson learned.

I hope this helps us be better senders and, better recievers :)
