I am not going to "drop" either one...its as you said..their differences are theirs to deal with...not mine...and certainly they may drop me if they don't like my decision to not choose sides...but then my "loyalty" would not be in question here would it!!
Thanks Steph...I would love to see more people get out from behind their computers and actually make face to face contact with people..socializing is fun...especially when you've had a chance to already get to know some of them from their posts on here...
Its not always all about "hooking up"..its about making "friends" too...and you never know who you'll meet at these things...
Depends on whether or not being "loyal" to someone earns you the title of "clique"...
However..I am loyal to a fault...and loyalty means standing by someone through good and bad...maybe not defending them..a wrong is a wrong..but standing beside them through it...
And yes friendships should be able to handle "truths"...good and bad..because its done with love and concern...
Yes I will hear both sides of the story...but trying to smoothen things out does not mean i am "defending" that person...but rather trying to stop something from snowballing out of control...that is "love" to want to shield someone from further hurt... It is not for me to judge whether that hurt was "merited" or "deserving"...
I know the Canadian Forum is fairly new...and the US forum has had a lot of time to establish itself...but our forum can be just as an "exciting" a place as there...
But we all have to put an effort into it...
It was good of sum1ssoulmate to take the initiative to put together a "get together"...the least we can do is give some feedback...
The dates, place and time was settled on because no one said that any other day/time/place would be better...
Please use the sign up sheet that the Administrators have provided so there is an idea of how many want/plan to attend...it helps when making phone calls and arrangements for such a thing
Even if you give a reason you don't think you can make it it is helpful to post...perhaps someone has a "solution" they can offer...
I got together with some of my friends (including American friends) this past summer...and it was the most awesome experience...no "hook ups"...but friends i hope to have for life...
Give yourself the chance to enjoy this place...you never know what may come of it!!
THE JOURNEY OF A MILLION MILES...BEGINS WITH THE FIRST STEP!!!
We are planning to have a get together on November 11th in Whitby at a club called Johnny B's...we will have dinner first...its a whole complex at 75 Consumers Road in Whitby...
There is a sign up sheet for this on the Canada Forums...if anyone would like to come please sign up so that we can average the amount of people to accommodate...there are also several motels/hotels in the area...
You can only access the sign up sheet from the Canadian Singles Site...so you have to log on "Connectingsingles.ca" instead of .com
I have always been the type of person that either "loves" or i don't...nothing in between...and i need nothing to know i love that person...I just know i do...and it has always been a deep and abiding love...even if it was not returned...
A person can't make me fall in love with them...many have tried.. But the down side of this has been, i am not able to "fall out of love" with them either...because there was no specific reason I fell in love in the first place...
Its okay Jet...if that is the purpose of her threads then i too will stay out...I love the forums and "debates"...love to hear other peoples opinions...but i'm not hear to "learn" anything superficial...I get enough of that in my day to day life...
Just want to thank everyone again...just got home and got some more messages...was trying to get through all of them, but i don't think i can...but i want everyone to know how very special they made this day for me...
You have to sign into "Connectingsingles.ca" rather than .com
That gets you to the Canada forums (you still have access to the int'l forums from here...) at the top of the right side of page you will see "Events/Get Togethers" Click on that...
When I woke up today and realized I was 42 years old...I smiled...I am loving it...as a woman it has been the best time of my life!!
No I didn't want to be single at this age, but i do know i have alot more to offer a partner in a relationship than i had 20 years ago..
I love the little crow's feet when i smile...it says that through it all I learned to laugh and kept my sense of humour.. I may not have the body i did 20 years ago...but guess what I got the honor of being a MOM!!
These years have taught me patience and tolerance...acceptance for differences and change...and I thank each and every person that has contributed to my life that I may be who I am today!!
Just want to thank all the wonderful friends on here for all the birthday wishes i had in my mailbox this morning...TWO PAGES WORTH!! WOO HOOOOO!!!

RE: How Loyal Are You?
