RE: Who likes new CS layout?

No, and it wasn't like that for me yesterday, either. The only thing I've noticed that's different is a couple of missing emoticons (the words are there, and I presume they're still usable), and that I had to change my pic to have one. My other one was only a dark vertical line for me, as is Stef's pic. No clue what's up with that.

All else appears normal here.

RE: ghosts

Absolutely. Spirit is energy and lives on, just at a different frequency. Sometimes we're able to perceive it, for whatever reason. Because theirs is lower at certain times, or ours is higher...whichever...but I've felt several as well. Animals and humans, young and old.

I've had a small child curl up in my lap and fall asleep during a seance. I've had a cat knead my lap and take a nap while I was working overtime and the office was almost empty. And I've often felt the brush of my late husband's touch. Just a few examples of my experiences.

RE: Today's thought......................

I'm trying to surrender to my higher good and my health. Thank you, you understood. My final vice...it's time for it to go. No patches since I'm allergic to the adhesive polymers, so I'm using Lobelia, a detox tea, toothpicks with Tea Tree oil, drinking lots of distilled water, and going to get out to the garden in the sun and earth...that should help a lot.

Walking, going to the gym...everything I can to get through day one.

RE: We Tied The Knot!

As long as it was just nerves. Blessings to the two of you...and may you always have butterflies when you look at each other.

RE: We Tied The Knot!

Stomach bug or nerves, Merky? You guys could have postponed it if you were sick, you know.

Ah well, it will make for funny memories for the rest of your life together.

RE: I am new

We all started out as new. Welcome, join in and you'll get less confused.

Btw, I've been to Sierra Vista...nice area. I was stationed at Ft. Huachuca a lifetime ago. Loved it out there.

RE: Until We're Together

Awesome poem, GB. Yes, to you and Joli, remember it's not good-bye. I never say that phrase. I say "au revoire" or "auf wiedersehen"...both have it right, "until we meet again".

Although, the reality of "good-bye" is that it's a shortening of "God be with you", supposedly, so that's not bad either...it just always sounds so final.

RE: Today's thought......................

Pat, perfect timing for this one. I'm trying not to sabotage myself with harmful thoughts and attitudes today. It's going to be a battle today, but I know I can win it. And tomorrow. One day at a time.

RE: TO THE CS MANAGEMENT.....

RE: We Tied The Knot!

Congratulations, Merky and Slim. I wish you two the best and brightest of futures together. Meeting the two of you is still on my bucket list, btw.

RE: Texas Gun Logic

(I'm originally from NH...and I think your state is the only one that has it right, Bruno.)

RE: Texas Gun Logic

Dogman, have I ever mentioned that I really like the way you think?

RE: Soda or Pop?

It's regional. I grew up in NH and there it was soda. I moved to SW PA and here it's pop. Both genders in each case, so I didn't vote in your poll.

RE: Dating a married man/woman

That is what often does happen in these cases, Dmire. Exactly.

RE: Dating a married man/woman

I didn't say that at all...I said that the men have become less picky, I didn't say that they cheat any more or less than they used to...same for the women, for that matter.

Times haven't changed that much on this one, I'm afraid. The difference I see is that now when a spouse finds out that their spouse has cheated, they can finally leave them to find one who is more faithful instead. I consider that a change for the better, Dmire.

RE: why are'nt there more artistic or creative people on the forums of connectingsingles ?

Gilly, nice to see different pics of you!

Hmmmph...what makes you think many of us aren't artistic and creative?

RE: Dating a married man/woman

Yeah...and I have a name or five for them...none of which are complimentary.

RE: Dating a married man/woman

Yes, that can be the other problem...and many times there's no way to tell that they're married until it's too late. Married men who hunt for affairs don't often give it away early in the game. And then there are married men who have told me that their wedding ring is a turn on for women who don't want commitment, but want a steady partner.

I don't get it myself...I dated one married man accidentally. He told me he was divorced, and he was living in the barracks, so it seemed to be right. Suddenly he was moving his stuff into post housing and getting his furniture delivered before his wife and daughter arrived, and it was time to put the wedding band back on. I was furious. And no, I would never have dated him if I knew he was married...even at 19 I wasn't that stupid, and certainly was never desperate.

RE: Dating a married man/woman

Mistresses have been "kept" by married men for centuries, Dmire...the only thing that I see has changed is that some men aren't as picky as they used to be.

RE: Dating a married man/woman

No, not for most of us. And men and women have cheated on their spouses for centuries...it was just kept hush all of those years ago. Now we can divorce because of it and rail against it.

Most of the reasons why some date married people have been mentioned...and I agree with the majority here, I wouldn't date anyone who is still attached. Separated and living separately I used to consider, but not any more. Attached is attached, and I won't go there.

RE: KISS, MARRY OR AVOID....?

Yeah, but I still luv ya, RDM.

Story of my life..."kiss the boys, they run like h*ll"...

RE: KISS, MARRY OR AVOID....?

RE: KISS, MARRY OR AVOID....?

Consider us engaged, RDM...

RE: women marrying late

I was almost 30 when I had my first son...nope, no regrets. I was mature enough to handle motherhood well by then. Now I have two teenagers, and we have a great relationship.

RE: What's the best way to show a guy you care?

RE: What's the best way to show a guy you care?

Yes, and I've been known to massage my dogs as well. They love that as much as a good belly scratch and rub!

RE: KISS, MARRY OR AVOID....?

Back at you, sister! (I'm familiar with the double-cheek kissing concept of Europe and the Meditteranean.

RE: House approves $6.4 billion for green schools

Agreed on that point, Indy.

But, SF, I think that if there are any changes made to make our schools, especially the older and more hazardous ones, safer for our children, it's a good thing.

RE: KISS, MARRY OR AVOID....?

Thank you, darling.

Now that we've sufficiently spiced this up, I'll let you go back to collecting more kisses.

RE: THE OTHER FORUMS

Sorry, Vonney...didn't mean to spell it wrong. I almost did change it to this, then wasn't sure.
