RE: Whats in a Name!!!

I used to know a guy named Michael Michaels. Also had a teacher in high school, Mr. Perky. He wasn't.

RE: What Do You Think???

This has always been my view, and probably why I'm still single. I'm just not the jealous type. If he really wants to stay out drinking til 3am, just don't wake me up when you get back. Expecting someone to stop doing something they love (whether good or bad) is expecting them to change. And my Grandma always said the only time you can change a man is when you change his diapers.

RE: Dating & Mental Health

Depends on the severity and how well he kept it under control. If he constantly needed monitoring that he was taking his meds, then that might be too much.

RE: Romance vs Cheesyness

I love cheesyness, as long as he's not actually trying to be serious.

RE: What Do You Think???

For that matter, she could also meet someone on a street corner or the in grocery store, but that's really no reason to stop going outside.

RE: What Do You Think???

I don't see it ever becoming a problem since I know I'll leave the site eventually. I never stay on one site too long, usually a year, then get bored and disappear.

RE: What is the funniest sign you have seen?

I always like the ones at hospitals that read "NO SMOKING OXYGEN".

RE: HAPPY BIRTHDAY TRISH123!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

RE: Hello..what really brought us here.. love.. friendship.. etc.

I got bored at work one day.

RE: CAN SOMEONE DEFINE WHAT COMES AROUND GOES AROUND

LOL I remember that! My aunt used to say "One day you're gonna have kids and I hope they act just like you!"

RE: Sometimes we need to have the *hit scared out of us?

So true, I agree. I learned this myself yesterday. What I thought was allergies turned out to be a contact lens that had split in the middle cause I'd been wearing them a bit longer than you're supposed to. Ended up scratching the first layer of cells off the middle of the cornea, and while I'm lucky the damage is probably not permanent, now I have to go back to wearing glasses for a few weeks (which I HATE) and take antibiotic eyedrops every hour. Plus my vision is funked up. Not fun.
Now when I do get contacts again, I'll make sure to follow the directions exactly.

Glad everything worked out for you, Sparky.

RE: It is my Birthday as well...

OMG mine too!!

RE: have you ever be told you looklike a famous person and who

THAT'S where I know you from!

RE: have you ever be told you looklike a famous person and who

Nope, but my uncle looks exactly like Abraham Lincoln.

RE: What song are you right now? PART 2.

Right now, it's Cinderella's "Don't Know What You Got Till It's Gone".

RE: If your significate other wanted you to get rid of your pet would you?

But there's a difference between having a horde of pets and being asked to reduce if the multitude of them seriously creates a problem, and asking someone to get rid of their sole (or 2 or 3) beloved family pet(s).

If I had 10 cats running around, and my SO asked me to reduce to a manageable amount, then I would consider, but would also be very strict about the households they go into. As I only have the one now (or even when it was 2), there's no way I would consider getting rid of her.

RE: If your significate other wanted you to get rid of your pet would you?

My cat's nickname is Princess for a reason.

Seriously, my cat is my 4-legged daughter. I love her more than words could describe, even when she drives me crazy. Asking me to give her away would be equivalent to asking me to cut off a body part. I just couldn't do it, and any man who truly loved me would not ask.

RE: If your significate other wanted you to get rid of your pet would you?

No way. My cat goes, I go.

RE: is it possible to fall in love chatting online

Short answer - kinda yes

Long answer - I think it's possible to become enamored with someone and to care about them very strongly. But most people need a face to face meeting in order to make it "real".

RE: ~ Happy Birthday! ~ Bonne Fete! ~ James/Tumpa

Happy Birthday!

RE: What is an unexplainable fear you have?

Sounds rational to me. I'd probably be nervous too at the thought of being sliced open.

RE: What's The Weather Like In Your Area?

snow/rain mix, 31 degrees

RE: What is an unexplainable fear you have?

Being buried alive
Swarms of insects (anthills, etc)
Looking/Walking into large, totally dark spaces

Also, have a fear of falling, but that comes from when I drove my car off a cliff when I was 16.

and also of having my head submerged under water, but it's not so bad if I have something secure above water to hold onto and no one touches me. needless to say, I can't swim.

RE: How did Mary become pregnant?

RE: FRIENDS OK OR NEED MORE !!!

If there was, or wasn't, it wouldn't matter anyway.

RE: FRIENDS OK OR NEED MORE !!!

*insert zipped lips emote*

RE: FRIENDS OK OR NEED MORE !!!

Actually, I think I have it narrowed down to 3 now, but if Sassy wanted y'all to know she'd tell you.

RE: FRIENDS OK OR NEED MORE !!!

I've narrowed it down to 6.

RE: FRIENDS OK OR NEED MORE !!!

Agreed. Even admitting there is someone is pretty dangerous if the friend list is short.

RE: Have you ever had a broken bone?

Only thing close is when I cracked my kneecap and top of the tibia from falling up a set of marble steps (no give there lol). But I managed to save the bowl of sweet & sour sauce I carrying.
