RE: Time for a Break

Hope ya found a way to cheat on the tests , or just some way to pass em. To many of the fun and conversational posters taking breaks. Hope things go well Zee, truly do.

RE: I remember when...

I remember when...

- Relationships were viewed pleasurable and challenging,
and not viewed as difficult and hard work.

- People believed that Love could come from a single glance,
not that it had to be built up with work and time.

These things I remember so that I do not forget to trust my heart and I never doubt the love it has for others or the love others may have for it.

---

I remember when...

- a smile you gave was welcomed by those you gave it to,
instead of questioned for what deception it might mask.

- a conversation was the sharing of thoughts and ideas,
instead of a debate to prove who's were right or wrong.

- honesty was something other people admired,
instead of something they consider foolish.

- honor was something other people respected,
instead of something they doubt the existence of.

- compassion was appreciated by others,
instead of mocked as naivety, or weakness.

- thoughtfulness brought comfort to those it was given to,
instead of bringing suspicion and fear of the one giving it.

These things I choose to remember so they are not lost from my life. I choose to remember them so when they are given to me I see them for what they are to me and can thank those who give them to me and others.

Just thoughts shared,
take care all,
me

RE: Would u accept/encourage your wife or g/f,...... BE HONEST MEN

That seems to be a popular opinion of my postings in more then just this matter. Hard for me not to do so when I wish to give an honest answer.

Yes there are countless ways around every situation and again I merely was trying to allow the thread focus to be a point of origin for thought. I'll hush and not get any deeper, and will simply go add a no to the listing.

RE: Due to the great number of mean natured threads of all types....

not governance...interaction... again sorry and I'll just walk away now.

RE: ~What do you consider to be the worst virtue in Human nature~

For me I think it boils down to arrogance...

The arrogant do not think they need to learn because they already know

The arrogant do not have compassion because they think others are worthless

The arrogant do not encourage others because they are not worth the arrogants persons time

the list just goes on and on for me... So blatant arrogance I think is the worst one I see as it leads to or supports so many negative things.

The cost of Religious abandonment...

Thanks again Conrad.

Thank you very much Pretz for the background and thoughts. Very much appreciate the time given to post.

RE: Due to the great number of mean natured threads of all types....

is ok I have bee killing spray ...thread derailer ...shhh

RE: Due to the great number of mean natured threads of all types....

Ah for that I can understand. I thought you just didn't feel you were supposed to...so to speak...

There is a line for it I would agree. Have never used it to report someone saying something to me or anything like that but they start screaming names at others and by fire you bet I am hitting the button

hehe

but yeah I fully understand what you mean.

RE: Due to the great number of mean natured threads of all types....

It would be nice to have 'visable' modertors wandering the threads. That can be very helpful in keeping some from just lashing without thought... Would be even nicer if they started to do some corrective responding too.

Anyway, very good on you Robbie, time will tell eh?

RE: Due to the great number of mean natured threads of all types....

It most certainly is your right!...

I have been here perhaps three weeks and I have made use of that report link more then once for certain! Just add why you think it was reportable to the comment section and send send send away. They will review and do as they see fit to do.

The cost of Religious abandonment...

Okie dokie Thanks!

RE: Due to the great number of mean natured threads of all types....

Have had the same kind of feelings about the atmosphere for certain. Do what allows you to smile RNG, if that is taking a break and hoping things shift again here back to enjoyable conversations then I wish you well and hope for the speedy shift of things here.

Just make sure you can smile during the day. I haven't been here long but I too would have to join some of the others in saying your one of the ones I get a smile from, seeing you go lowers the odds of getting a smile from this place and that's a sad thing, but again understandable. Just thought I would share my thoughts.

The cost of Religious abandonment...

Thanks for the link Conrad.

What are your personal thoughts on the thread subject though? Or does that book define your thoughts on the matter? Just curious.

The cost of Religious abandonment...

What might it cost the human race to abandon any and all religious belief?

Is it inevitable that a government loses its power when its people lose their faith in the predominant religion held/supported by that Government? History seems to show it is, thoughts?

Has a government ever existed that did not have a religious stance in any way shape or form? Could one exist without any religious stance of any kind?

Can humans prosper (not meaning financially) without a religion to look towards/follow/live up to/etc, or will they always have to have a reason/excuse for their actions?

Just some questions for individuals to share their personal thoughts about.








(sorry it wasn't about UFO's Rodolpho. )

RE: Would u accept/encourage your wife or g/f,...... BE HONEST MEN

Very likely the answer is then no. The immediate one would be, but if she was dead set on doing it and nothing would sway her from it, then I would probably be supportive but very likely as just a friend and no longer as a boyfriend.

A one time deal as I said before...

As a profession... nah that just isn't a relationship change I think I could be comfortable enough with, so I would let her go her own way and do what she wished to do.

"Stop the thread..nope stop it.. its just too silly..thats right too silly"

hehehehe

RE: Would you?? ......You know the drill

I like your thinkin..... hey come back why you running away so fast????

LMAO

RE: WHAT'S WRONG WITH WESTERN WOMEN?

oh for certain... what I mean is that the expectations I keep seeing and hearing are how poorly this or that group will treat me... this group is nothing but this way (negatives).. thats the 'expectations' I was referring to.

RE: WHAT'S WRONG WITH WESTERN WOMEN?

I don't think it is the wrong people we are meeting... I think it has developed into more of a "this is what "men/women" are here so I might as well look elsewhere. It seems to me to be more along the lines of expectations being poor and then the spreading of how those expectations "always" come true etc simply has caused a belief that they want that and they want this with both men and women. This is ONLY my opinion from my own understandings of things I see and hear around me...

Just sharing

RE: WHAT'S WRONG WITH WESTERN WOMEN?

Maybe it is a stale mate and western men would be willing to be gracious if they felt their affections would be reciprocated?

RE: Has your online dating experience been fruitful?

No one has sent me any fruit at all

RE: Where is common ground?

I don't agree.

Prove to me....

Sounds intriguing Dusty, thanks for sharing that. Can't really find an evidence for the thread topic, but might be sending you an e-mail with my messenger so we could chat about this sometime. It might have something for one of my other collections I have going. Thanks again for the time spent to share it!
