RE: Whitby Get-Together November 11

Cat is actually still looking into getting a flight if possible...would love to have her...and I know she would love to see you too!

RE: Piercings

I don't think its gross...i do think its a matter of personal choice..however one has to be the right age to make such a choice...

And remember some of this is very "cultural" to people and they see nothing wrong with it..

My daughter has her nose pierced...and like Lori..it was what she wanted for maintaining an "above average" thoroughout the school year as well as 2 certificates for "leadership" in her school, she also passed her Ontario Math tests with honors...it was the least i could do for her for all her hard work...and by the way she continues to be a high academic...even with her piercing...

I have tattoos myself and my ears pierced 12 times..i'm hardly in a position to really take up issue over this with her, however, like me she will have to be of age and pay for it herself...

RE: what is proper edicate?

I agree with huntress...lol

However this is a difficult one in this "day and age" (I sound so old when i say that)...there was a time that there was no question as to who picks up the bill...but back then women didn't ask men out either (unless it was Sadie Hawkins!!)

I go prepared to pay my own way...i am always "impressed" when the man takes it upon himself to pick up the check...and at the same time it offers me the opportunity to say whether or not i will be paying half of that...especially if i think he's expecting "pay back"

Who Really Has The Weight Problem??

I loooovve being "rubenesque"!!!

RE: Whitby Get-Together November 11

Hi Melissa...it would be lovely to see you again doll....

This time since we're in public...we'll try to behave okay???

(I don't have by "back up" dancers this time anyways!!)

RE: The age difference canadian people would accept...

I would not think to date someone younger than 35 (and that's really pushing it for me i think...) how much older than I would not make a difference to me...

RE: Happy Birthday.......IZZY

Feliz cumpleaños mi amor….¡Tengo un cumpleaños grande “torta” para ti… si me dejas ser el que está “para soplar” la vela grande!! ¡Recuerdos para muchos muchos más!!

Would You Date Someone With Children if You Have None of Your Own??

I was actually thinking the same thing Lyric...but because he's a "newbie" i didn't want to jump on him so quickly...but Tiger if you read her post...she's absolutely correct...that line "daughters preferred" would raise a "red flag" to any mother with girls...

Like Lyric said, I'm sure you didn't mean it in the way it sounded, and as a matter of fact i think you explained your reasoning already...but still be careful of how you word things...

Would You Date Someone With Children if You Have None of Your Own??

Not sure i'm agreeing/understanding your thoughts on the "gender" of the child...that in itself would make no difference to me...and certainly i would not let my 2 girls ever believe i "dated" someone because they had a "son" that i never had...would not want my girls to ever think they were not "enough"...

Would You Date Someone With Children if You Have None of Your Own??

But that's just the thing Trace...I can't see how someone who has no children of their own can truly understand the "dynamics" between a parent and a child...even though they may wish it or even say it enough times to believe it...they cannot in my opinion know the sacrifices a parent will make for that child, nor how much of a "priority" they can be...

RE: A lesson in female anatomy (Rated R)

I do find it insulting to say the least...and embarrassing for the most part...

Young boys who partake in these so called "fish tales" (who learned it from the "men" around them apparently) cause young girls to grow up with a sense of "embarrassment" about any type of body odor they may have...that may also be quite "normal"...but the amount of jokes surrounding it has made it more of a "shameful thing" to them...

As you said, there is seldom jokes about men and the odors they emit from unhealthy hygiene so they don't grow up with the same "hang ups" unfortunate...but true...

I am a fanatic about my personal hygiene, and frankly its because of hearing all this "crap" while i was growing up...now even though I know better...its just "habit"...

RE: Someone

RE: A lesson in female anatomy (Rated R)

Jean I have tried to tell this very exact thing to people in the past...that if there is a "fish" odor..there is something wrong...

But i think that even if the men believe it now, they still have too much fun with the "fish" jokes and they're not going to drop it...you know how boys are...

I think Lori mentioned it earlier...if a man i'm with has ever believed that "fish tale" in the past...he certainly doesn't believe it after he's been with me!!

Gut Instinct??

RE: seperated = SINGLE.. period

I do believe that there is some "insecurity" issue attached to this for the part of the women...I can't say for sure because i've not yet been in that position...

The last woman my "ex" was seeing knew full well about our marital status...which did not seem to pose a problem at the start (is ANYthing a problem at the start.. ) but once they were an "item" all of a sudden all kinds of things became a problem...and though i was prepared to give him a divorce if he wanted to proceed..he very quickly saw the "change" in her...and decided the "divorce" was not as important as having her "move on"...

RE: Is there anybody out there for me?

Hi T...welcome to the forums...

Its a great way to meet and get to know people and for them to know you...good luck!!

RE: Would you uproot yourself and move?

Until i am faced with that decision, can't say for sure what i would do..i wouldn't rule it out though...I've done alot more in my opinion for those that i truly loved...

RE: Anyone else bored tonight

I'm sorry about friday night....

However...if you come to the get together on November 11th in Whitby i can promise you won't get "stood up"...

will you at least consider it?...I would love to meet you...

Gut Instinct??

Well i would have to say i'm a "gut instinct" person...it has not let me down as many times as my "heart" and "eyes" have...

Gut Instinct??

How many people rely on their "gut instinct" rather than what's in front of them to make a decision??

RE: I have a new

How awesome Fabs...congratulations to you and the parents...

How is "mom" doing?

RE: Tell something that bothers you

I dislike that people feel the need to be "judgemental"...

RE: How Much Would You Ask For?

So who really benefitted from this??...the General Public??..the woman?...McDonald's??

Again it boils down to priorities and principals...

RE: I have hurt my best friend

I am definitely not disagreeing with any advice given on here...but i guess the "friend" thing is still nagging at me...so all i'm going to say is that my friends are capable of hurting me in ways that no stranger could possibly do...however...If i "cut off" every friend that have hurt or offended me in the past...i would have no friends today...

I thought part of "friendship" is also "love and understanding"...he has said he is sorry...he regrets his actions...that would be all my friend would have to say...along perhaps with a real "show" of remorse for having hurt me...and well maybe a few choice words from me about his "antics"...but at the end of the day...he'd still be my "friend"...

RE: Kids Party Games

When my girls were younger..I had a lot of "theme" parties for their birthdays...

But my sister had a dinosaur party for her son...and part of the "theme" was to ask everyone to dress the part...(paleontologists)

You could have "sandbox" digs...or even a cardboard box with sand in it that the children could look for "dinosaur bones" or "dinosaur eggs"...We have party stores here that carry "rocks" that kids can chip away at to find "bones" as well...

Get the older kids to head a "group" of dinosaur hunters, so that they can move from station to station with some semblance of "order"

At one of the parties i had for my girls i needed a "forest"..so i just took loosely bunched up green tissue and stuck it close to the ceiling (for the tree tops) and just hung brown streamers down from that to represent the tree trunks...gave the atmosphere...

RE: Sharing Beauty Tips... what works for u?!

Depends on what type of "soap" you use...I happen to use "goats milk soap with oatmeal" on my face..because i didn't find that the face washes took off my makeup well enough...(I also use this soap on my skin) I've also heard "glycerin" soap is good to wash with...


BTW...I think Sweetcherry bears a resemblance to Jennifer Lopez and perhaps if she looked at magazines with JLo in them she may get some ideas for makeup techniques...

RE: Sharing Beauty Tips... what works for u?!

I find that the older i get, the less makeup i tend to wear...

I have gone from wearing "red" lipstick..to just a tinted chapstick..lol..and a lip liner...

Too much face makeup tends to "settle" in the creases i'd rather not know i have...so unless its an "evening" event, I just wear a bit of face powder to take the "shine" off...

I do like my "eye makeup", but still wear less of it...

RE: Sharing Beauty Tips... what works for u?!

I will defer to Deb's knowledge on this because i'm not as keen on makeup as i was years ago...

However as you will notice i am a darker skin colour...and at some point in my life a "brunette"...lol

To get the effect of the "white" pencil on the inner rim of my eye i use a "silver" has the same effect but not as "stark" as a white against the darker skin...(blue liner also helps make your eyes appear whiter if they are blood shot or tired looking)..
Instead of "pink" i use a "champagne" colour on the lower part of my lid and inner corner of my eye...a darker colour in the crease drawn out to the outer corner of your eye and just beyond can "largen" the appearance of your eye...and black mascara against the lighter colour lid also opens your eye...

Green and purple are also good "evening" colours for dark skinned/dark eyed women...

Is A Picture Worth A Thousand Words??

I know that picture is YOU Will!!!
