RE: Is it ok to get the ring back?

I did.
There was no way I was going to let her walk away with that much money especially when she A: didn't deserve it and B: would probably sell it for the cash.

I actually bought a very expensive gift for my recent ex.
It was something she had always wanted.
Well, when I found out that she was interested in another man on Christmas eve, suffice it to say it's mine now!

Possession is nine tenths of the law, and legally, you probably don't have a leg to stand on, but I agree with you and all the other guys.
If she didn't fulfill her end of the bargain, then she should give it back.

RE: Dumped!

That's a good one too! ;)
Have faith, it'll get better.

RE: Dumped!

Here your go and I can sing and play it as well....


BILLY DEAN LYRICS

Somewhere In My Broken Heart


You made up your mind
It was time it was over
After we had come so far
But I think theres enough pieces of forgiveness
Somewhere In My Broken Heart

I would not have chosen
The road you have taken
It has left us miles apart
But I think I can still find the will to keep going
Somewere In My Broken Heart

So fly, Go ahead and fly
Until you find out who you are
And I, I will keep my love unspoken
Somewhere In My Broken Heart

I hope that in time
You find what you long for
Love thats written in the stars
When you finally do I think you will see it
Somewhere In My Broken Heart

Girl I, I will keep my love unspoken
Somewhere In My Broken Heart

I hope that in time
You will find what you long for
Love thats written in the stars
And when you finally do I think you will see it
Somewhere In My Broken
Somewhere In My Broken
Somewhere In My Broken Heart

RE: Dumped!

Sure what would you like to hear?

RE: Favorite duo??

That would undoubtedly be John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara.

I love all their movies but "The quiet man" is the best.

RE: just wanted to say hey!!!!

Welcome!
I bet you'll have a blast on here once you figure it all out.
Best of luck finding what you're looking for!

RE: the one part of your body your happy with!

I'm pretty happy with the whole package honestly.
I think age has been easy on me although i just started working so I could like it even better.

If I had to pick one part (I'll avoid the naughty bits), I'd have to say my legs are the best.

RE: Dumped!

Great minds think alike!
I swear I didn't read your post before I posted.

RE: Dumped!

Awwww, sorry hon.
Don't you worry it'll come back around again!

RE: Are You This Deep?

I seem to be averaging about one for one so far. lol
The sacrifice of the pain, is definately overcome by the elation of love.
A few months of suffering and a renewed understanding of one's self, make for a positive change.
I believe all this is geared to help us better pick our mates.
"Selection of the fitest" as it were.

RE: why do I always want what I cant have??

Yeah what is it with that?
I do the same thing and I know others that do as well.
Maybe it's just human nature to yearn for what we can't have?

RE: Singles Cruises....Anyone been on one?

That sounds more like something, uh well let's say "a lot less romantic". lol
Thanks for the service though!

RE: Between a Rock and a Hard Place

That's a rough one for sure!
There's something about that, that is too close to home if you know what I mean?
I don't know you and I don't mean to imply anything, but all I can say if you intend to work for her father and date her at the same time, I would be very careful to behave.
I know those folks either, but one wrong move could result in disaster depending on how forgiving and understanding they are.

If they treat you like family, then you're in like flynn!

Best of luck, let us know how it turns out.

Watch out for Jumpdates folks!

JUst sign up for a profile at *** and I'm sure you will get your wish!

Put the bait out there and real 'em in for the kill! lol

Watch out for Jumpdates folks!

Yeah, there's something kind of cold about someone who preys on people by exploiting their loneliness.
It is hard to believe that people fall for these things.

Watch out for Jumpdates folks!

I did meet one really nice gal on there, but she's way to far away.
I have been approached on numerous occasions with those phony "My Father's the king of some third world country and he died, so we need you bank account number to transfer the funds into your account".

Yeah right!

I may have been born at night, but it wasn't last night!

A couple of the people I met on there seemed legit at first and then when we went on yahoo messenger, they eventually got around to asking if they could borrow money.

At that point there's a very quick disconnect at my end.

RE: question...

Lol, Hey who knows?
Maybe you'll cancel each others ego out?

RE: southernbelle22 and louisiana10 engaged

That's great!
I love to hear stuff like that!

Congratulations guys and I wish you the best of luck!

RE: What's Your Sign?

Sagitarius here.

RE: Valentine's Day 2006

Oh I agree with you 100%, but this year it's a day in which I cannot shower my affections down on someone I love and who loves me back.
It's so much better to celebrate holidays with someone special.

RE: Why can't we all just get along?

Uh, you don't really think the US would indiscriminately starting raining tomohawk missles down on a an English city do you?
I mean please tell me you're kidding.

I believe in a strong offense, but that's just insane.
That has to be one of the most baseless and paranoid things I've ever heard from what I'm assuming is the left.
I hate politics on here, I'm here love not fighting, but I couldn't stand by and let this go without throwing in my two cents.

I think some of you guys need to stop watching CNN.

By the way terror attacks are not the fault of Republicans.

RE: What is your favorite color??

Me too and in particular green!

RE: Tips on how to survive the Valentine's Day blues (for females mostly)

I'm dreading it frankly.
I get the blues if I'm alone on that day.
Come to think of it, Christmas wasn't all that mych fun either.

I guess the bottom line is that life is too short to go through it alone.

RE: the taste of love

I neglected to mention that love is most definately the most pleasingly sweet taste there is!

RE: the taste of love

Excellent question!

I would have to say I love all forms and manifestations of beauty.
That would be including, but limited to the beauty of nature, the beauty of human contact and the soul, the beauty of the human form and the beauty of loving each other and both fully aware of it.

When I see a sunset, a snow covered mountain range, when I first saw my newly born Daughter, a shape of a woman's body or the gaze in her eyes, there is no one that can convince me there's no God.
I personally believe that as the saying goes, "Love is God's presence in man".

It's all simply too great and wonderful to have been a coincidence.

Therefore, the greatest beauty is love.
It binds the world together and makes out lives rich and rewarding sometimes at great expense, yet it's all worth it.

This is one man's humble and yet heartfelt opinion.

RE: Red Flags

Very good point.
I was once married to what turned out to be a nut, but I was too young to know what I was doing yet and placed myself in harm's way.

I thought of another red flag and I realized it's probably my biggest.
Someone else mentioned it, but secrecy is a direct indicator of dishonesty.

RE: How do "you" spot a liar?

I think it's mostly by experience, but there's no sure way I know of.
It can in fact be hard to know the truth at the start of a relationship, but usually a liar will send up a few red flags.
One of the trickiest parts is admitting we see them due to wanting the relationship to work out.
Take it from me, I just learned about this the hard way.
I should have nixed it before it ever got started.
I saw the signs and ignored them.
You can bet I won't be doing that one again.

RE: break up after 26 years

Wow, I'm so very sorry to hear about that.
I've noticed all my ex's have suffered from chronic revisionist history.
I'm wading through the ending of a 5 year relationship and it's not been easy to say the least.
I can't imagine how 26 years and everything else you mentioned, would weigh on my mind.

I do know this, as it has been said, "This too shall pass".
I've always looked at it like, anything that doesn't kill you, can only make you stronger.
It isn't the end of the world and you will perservere my friend.
You seem like a man of character and conviction.

There are millions of viable, beautiful and loving women out there who would kill for that in a man.
As you know, in this day and age, it can be a little difficult to find an honest gentleman that isn't already spoken for.

You might want to consider a grief counselor and I'm no expert on the human mind, but I'm a good listener and I'd like to think 43 years experience has afforded me a little good judgement.
Anytime you'd like to get things off your mind, feel free to drop me an email.

We can never have enough friends and sometimes it's all that stands between us and what can be a cruel and seemingly lonley world.

You're not alone and as sure as I know my name the Lord is watching over you.
I'd have a talk with the man and ask for his assistance, for he is our greatest ally in this life.

I wish you the best in your search for peace and I'll say a word for you the next time I have a talk with the guy upstairs.

Take care!

RE: Red Flags

That is an excellent idea and I although I haven't done it, mainly because I trust most of the people I've met, but a background check would be good idea for you ladies.
There are lots of kooks out there.
Be careful.

RE: Red Flags

Let's see, they would include, but not be limited to, intolerance, angry outbursts, lack of ability to communicate, jealousy, impatience, apparent arrested social development, inference of infidelity, hateful or mean nature, amongst other things.
I've learned my lesson in the past. I won't ignore these types of signs again.
