So...let me get this straight - God sent his "only" son (at least at the time) as a sacrifice for the mistakes of first man - but since Jesus is a facet of god, he's simply sacrificing himself to himself KNOWING for a fact that he's already "saved" since he's god.
That dude was in a no-lose situation.
I mean, come on - if I were god and I sent myself here to sacrifice myself to myself to atone mankind for a mistake I made in the first place, knowing full well I had ZERO chance of burning in hell...what kind of sacrifice is that???
Read profiles, then read the forum posts (assuming they're posting). Look for consistency with their responses.
As far as pics and a/s/l crap, your guess is as good as mine (or better).
I highly doubt most pics are worthy of stealing, although of the ones that I know of that were borrowed the posters openly admit it, since, of course, they're pretty obvious.
If your kids are that young, they have no concept of time. Kids at that age know what 'school days' are; I highly doubt they even recognize weekends for what they are.
Have a bag always packed, and always out of sight of them...just put a change of clothes or whatnots in a duffle bag for them.
If your childrens father calls and says "I'm on my way" - don't tell the kids. If he shows, he shows, they'll be excited to see him, and you can scoot them off almost immediately. Otherwise it's just another weekend with mom, and they'll be none the wiser.
No harm to them, no endless waiting by the window. Too many parents make that mistake, and then the parent has to endure the torture of watching their kid go thru that, and try to explain what isn't their issue in the first place.
"Gonna overstep my boundaries here, but have you given any consideration to maybe she just enjoys online relationships? Maybe that's her safety net that's fulfilling any lonliness, but to make a step forward is too much."
Interesting, I hadn't thought about that before... definitely something to think about.
We hooked up with our ex(s) for a reason, and they've got to have some redeeming values to them still this day...
So what say you?
What are some GOOD qualities of the people you've been in a relationship with - the one's they still have today??
Ex A) Unbelievable kisser, still looking for her equal. Ex B) Remarkably rational (at times) and brilliant; on top of that almost flawless in her beauty. Ex C) Goofy, goofy, goofy; oh, and hard to get (which was a good thing, IMO). Ex D) Tomboyish - "game on" tomboyish.
What's bothered me the most about ppl I've dated in the past?
Uh...interesting, I can't think of anything in general that bothered me about the ppl I've dated/had relationships with. No two were ever alike; five of them, at one time, knew each other thru me and each one of them was a polar opposite of the others, if that's possible.
Two had worked together; one was a sitter of mine who knew both my wives, oh, and the sixth...no, I take it back, she knew no one because there was no way I'd let her. That chick was just wacked, but I liked her anyway.
Still can't think of anything in general that bothered me about them as a whole though. They were all cool in their own ways, even if things didn't work out.
Anyway, I have an offshoot topic for this thread...new thread coming...
I've had a quasi-relationship with someone who has two young sons and it did have an impact on me. I did have to weigh out whether or not I wanted to start over (as the case would have been)...and I think I would have done it, had there not been other barriers (logistics); but I can certainly see where you're coming from - all three of my children are now teens and I'm looking forward to the day in the not so distant future where I can be a little more selfish and do the things I've wanted to do that I've not been able to do.
This is a generalization, so it's not directed at you, even though I quote your post here, nikita...
I don't know any guy who said, "when I grow up I wanna be a deadbeat dad".
I don't know any guy who said, "if I knock this chick up I'll be a rockstar!"
Yes, you're right that it takes two to tango - sure, he chose not to use protection, just as you chose not to use it (although there are cases obviously where it fails).
Whatever happens, regardless of the situation, if you want that other parent in the childrens lives and to live up to their responsiblities, NEVER call them a loser, deadbeat, or a piece of crap to their face. NEVER call them a loser, deadbeat, or a piece of crap in front of your kids. Even if you think they are, even if you don't care if the world knows you slept with a loser, deadbeat, or piece of crap, NEVER let those words fall out of your mouth.
I had my three kids when I was between 19-23. By 25 I was a divorced father with full custody raising 2, 4, and 6 yr olds - and I did that alone for several years until their mother came back into the picture.
As a matter of fact, shortly after I divorced one of my best friends divorced and he was granted full custody of his three kids as well; he and I ended up splitting parenting duties - I watched his kids when he worked or needed time to himself, and visa versa.
As far as social stigmas; I guess it's different for men and women as I never encountered any negativism over it. Most ppl that found out I was raising three on my own freaked out a bit as it wasn't that common then I suppose, but I still found dates, and still ended up finding someone special and remarrying within five years.
So as far as being young and being a custodial parent of children, you can raise your kids and still find time to do other things if you choose to...you just have to step out of the box and make that decision.
I just heard that it wasn't because her toes were run over, I heard she had a horrible case of Athlete's Foot fungus and didn't want Tommy to know about it.
I also found out that while she was in transit in the ambulance the driver said '...ere' to the paramedic in the back, then proceeded to run over some woman's old dog, which the driver somehow found quite amusing.
Serina wasn't amused about it, since it was her dog Tricks.
Two-part question; one for the ladies, another for the guys...read the following, then explain if you will:
“They also have to like kids” “Someone that would love me and my son.” “He should be open to eventually meeting my kids” “Some one who like children and are good with them,” “He must like children.” “I want someone who likes children and can be good with my son.” “You like kids.” “someone honest laid back likes kids”
These are quotes from 8 of the 12 random profiles of women I just finished looking at.
Women: The majority of you have kids, and make it a point to post that Mr. Right needs to like kids. Do guys, in your opinions, actually have serious issues with women with kids??
Men: Do any of you have issues with women with kids??
I can't recall seeing a single guy, at least in the forums here, who ever mentioned a woman with kids as being an issue.

That cracks me up, lol.
