RE: I dont know what is going on here???????

So sorry, dear one. I know you've had a bit of this lately. At least you've got each other to lean on through this.

You both have my condolences. That was my year last year...but at least we knew each one was coming.

RE: Who's Your Favorite Star Wars Character or Species?

I know...but I hate making mistakes.

RE: Personal Responsibility

Very wise words, HJ...very wise. My fault is usually to expect too much from myself, and to easily forgive others their faults and failures. It's when I don't live up to my own expectations of myself that I am disappointed.

RE: Who's Your Favorite Star Wars Character or Species?

typo...and I didn't catch it either... Sorry!

Still...he's my fave.

RE: Thought to Consider . . .

Ah...HJ, absolutely!

RE: Why people here just for FUN???

You've got more moxie than most men...and a lot more going on for a man so young than many ever get.

RE: Why people here just for FUN???

It's an unusual dating site in that it has the forums. Many have met their partners here in the forums and stayed because they made friends along the way. Personally, I welcome that because:

1) knowing at least 7 couples that have successfully met and married here gives hope for all of us...or at least, more of us

2) they are awesome people who give great insight...and sometimes just humorous contributions...but really, always welcome contributions.

As to the rest who state just here for friends, hang out...well, why not? It's a dating site, but has so much more stuff. I'm here to try to find a long term partner...but in the meantime I'm having a blast and meeting a lot of wonderful people. Some are in serious relationships, some are young, some are old...some are women, which is not who I date...and I'm grateful for all of them being here. I would never have met them on Yahoo IM or MSN Messenger.

You're entitled to your opinion...but don't be surprised if there are few here who share it.

RE: Do you lough if you see someone fall down while walking.

Okay...that one would do it for me!

Normally, I only laugh at myself...or my friends (after making sure they're all right) 'cuz they can take it and they'll laugh at me when I fall. Others, I'll make sure that they're ok.

Yeah...I know people who can't laugh at themselves...my younger sisters for example. Apparently I was the only one to get this sense of humor in my family.

Of course...I was also the one to fall the most.

RE: Hey..So I am thinking..

I'm so sorry, Mystic...but at least you won't have to deal with them all as a group for long.

RE: Who's Your Favorite Star Wars Character or Species?

My favorite was always the dashing bad boy...Hans Solo. Who else would a gal like me love? Wiseacre, daring, able to get into and out of trouble so nimbly...but a real softie inside as well. Yep...Hans for me.

RE: Hey..So I am thinking..

Not just you. My best friend has had other plans so we didn't do our normal girls' night in for movies at my place this weekend. I've been sick, and didn't get all of the things done that I should've...spent a lot of time sleeping instead, and some time on here. Even my date yesterday wasn't enough to lift my spirits...and being ill started right afterward (hmmmm....telling me something?).

So (and it's rather reflected in my posts this weekend) I've been depressed and lethargic all weekend. You're not alone.

RE: My Little Kitty

I love cats, even though I don't have them now. I have always had mine de-clawed so that I could live with them indoors...and it wasn't considered cruel back then. (Just the front ones.) I don't know why this is now considered cruel and vets don't do this anymore...but I'm glad that it has helped your cat. Poor baby, I'm glad she's all better now. I hate knowing that anyone or anything is suffering.

RE: Burn out

Hire an answering service. They'll take messages for you and you can get back to people when you have time. Makes more normal work hours and gives you time off. That's if you're self-employed, which I presume you are since I know of no employer that doesn't give vacation time. I don't know about laws regarding this in the rest of the world, but in the US it would be illegal not to offer time off. The only people I know that work like you stated are self-employed.

I agree, though...take some time off if you can't figure out how to give yourself some while still employed. It's not worth burning out...it will affect your health eventually, too.

And if you're answering a phone 24/7, when do you sleep, grocery shop, clean the house, etc?

You are the most important thing you have. Take good care of yourself.

RE: KISS OR PASS THE GAME PART 178 :)

A

Get well soon, lady!

RE: growing up in a small town

My roots are in a small town...and I'm still that small-town girl at heart. But yeah, it's got its bad aspects too...like everyone knowing your business.

RE: How High Is Your Self Esteem!!

I've been there...and you can do it.

RE: What Kind of Lover Is Best For You!!!

Scorpio for you, girl...with a lot of Pisces mixed in...that would fit this one!

Wow...that type would drive me nuts.

RE: How High Is Your Self Esteem!!

I got that too...but I wasn't surprised. I do know that I'm comfortable in my own skin...I've worked hard to get there. Believe me, there have been times that it has been much lower. Btw, 51% get this answer.

Self respecting

You are a great person with a healthy balance of self esteem. You take pride in yourself and things that you do, but are never too cocky to ignore the mistakes you make. People look up to you because they see how happy you are in your skin. Stay where you are- don't become too modest or full of yourself.

RE: What Kind of Lover Is Best For You!!!

Isn't that the truth. Yes, but there is more than just this to what I want...really, he would be a combination of all. And have the strength to open up and love again...because face it, none of us get to this age and are single without there being some pain.

RE: What Kind of Lover Is Best For You!!!

I got the same result as you, My Life:

The Funny, Loving type

You enjoy the type of mate who can always make you laugh, no matter what. Always gentle and warm, they can brighten your mood even if you have just lost something dear to you. They will be your shoulder to cry on forever.

Hmmmm...well, that is definitely the answer to a puzzle.

RE: when do u feel.....u r in LOVE?

When my knees go weak and I shake like a leaf at the sight of him...and my heart soars when his eyes make contact with mine.

RE: What Makes You Happy?

Yep...nothing can beat that unconditional love shining out at you all the time.

Ah, who am I kidding...I have that and still want the other!

RE: What Makes You Happy?

Divine Energy/God, my dogs, my sons, music, a clean house...having a day like today all to myself.

RE: Saving Grace

She's a lucky woman, GB. I hope she realizes it. Beautiful poem.

RE: Which Are You & Why?

RE: Remember Bob Hope?????

Absolutely, I remember him. Got to meet him in person, too, and he was a very warm and wonderful human...always grateful for his fans, and friendly to the public. Loved him.

RE: KISS OR PASS THE GAME PART 178 :)

You're old enough to take it however it's meant! back at ya...to also take however you wish.

RE: KISS OR PASS THE GAME PART 178 :)

a friendly hug, and on the cheek

RE: Dating vs getting to know someone first?

Yes. I don't jump right into going on a date with someone I meet somewhere...I get to know them a little bit first.

RE: Dating vs getting to know someone first?

I agree with this, and will add that you can't tell physical chemistry from meeting online. Only when you get to meet in person can you tell if that's there.
