RE: What is our experience of Emotional intelligence ?

Yep, I get it

RE: Send an anonymous message #3

Same same but different

RE: What is our experience of Emotional intelligence ?

Hmm ok

What I take away from a site such as this is that it's one dimensional

We engage with those who appeal to us, in terms of intellectual equality, humour, moral values and all the other attributes that we find attractive in others in everyday life



Personally speaking, I don't take any of it to heart until I've met someone face-to-face, male or female, as that's when it becomes multi-dimensional ~ Real

I think that's a praying mantis

He was a lovely man with a gentle soul, my interactions with him always left a smile on my face

Gone too soon

Professional scoundrel

I've read through your narratives a couple of times, not quite sure what you're looking for here but it sounds like something I would like to get involved with

RE: Does Chatting On The Forums Count

Give it a break for God's sake

You're a grown woman, acting like a victim does you no favours.

RE: The elderly

I know my daughter will look after me and heed my wishes when the time comes

She doesn't want to talk about it, I understand that, but as I get older I would like my offspring to come to terms with the fact that I'm not gonna be around forever either

I've shown my son where all my important documents are stored, when I kick the bucket it might make things a bit easier

RE: The elderly

Your threads are always so thought-provoking Frisky

In my mid-thirties, I realised my mother was ageing (my father passed away when I was 13) and I became concerned as my marriage was in decay and there was no way I would entertain the idea of her coming to live with us

She was a very independent woman and the thought of her going into an aged care facility was unimaginable also

Sadly she discovered she had cervical cancer and passed away at the age of 74, I was 39 at the time, so I guess my parents spared me that decision

RE: What cuisine is your favorite?

No favourites, I cook my way around the globe

RE: How was your day?

Making sure I'm organised for tomorrow and the week ahead. ..

So excited starting my new job

RE: Arrested

I keep my misdemeanors to myself so they'd be gobsmacked

RE: Current Thoughts

It's just a website, ok

Random Thoughts

My dog and I are so on the same page

We both hate skateboards

Say Anything

Ahh right

Well I'm looking forward to giving it a try, I'll put a spinach and ricotta filling in it

Thanks again Bear!

Say Anything

I like the sound of this one, especially as you've made it before so I know it works

So you bring a pot of water to the boil then cook for 3 minutes?

Say Anything

Wow I've been looking out for a simple pasta recipe like this thanks Bear!

Most require a pasta machine or a LOT of kneading

I guess the eggwash is for brushing around the edges of the circles to seal them together once you've put the filling in

RE: Weather advice and warnings for the Brits and Irish

Yeah, whinge whinge whinge

They knew what was gonna happen but went right ahead and got born there anyway, no sympathy

RE: Eating Dead Animals

Yes indeed I do


I eat nothing that has, or had, a face

RE: How was your day?

Exhausting


Mowing and digging in the heat and humidity, autumn needs to kick in and bring some relief now

RE: Why do women always expect the guy to travel to them and or pay.

Yes that's fine for the first meet


But what about the second, third, fourth etc if you find both parties are interested in pursuing a spark of interest

Who's going to foot the bill for that if it means travelling around the globe every couple of months as you get to know each other

We're talking thousands of dollars here

RE: When marriages begin to fail....

Apologies for the hijack OP, I'll show myself out

RE: When marriages begin to fail....

I rest my case

RE: When marriages begin to fail....

Oh cmon, he only gives it to those who can flick it right back at him

There is no 'system', we're all individual grown-up people hence we have the choice to respond, or not.

RE: How was your day?

Thanks Deedee, I'm looking forward to it

RE: When marriages begin to fail....

Harsh but relevant

RE: How was your day?

A full-on day, loads of work to finish up and loose ends to be tied as it was my last day at my current job

Sad to say goodbye to my colleagues and also the wonderful clients who face their challenges in life with such bravery, it humbles me

But chapters close and now it's time to look forward to the new one beginning in just a few days

RE: After life

Well I'm not going otherwise
