I disagree, little hearts dotting the "i"'s and words that can be copied verbatim....learned this in my courses. Plagerisim the art of using others heartfelt words for personal gain, not sharing of knowledge/information.
How easy it is to read others words, then upon meeting our eyes become blinded by those soft so endearing words wrote or spoken over a phone... great starting points. But the mannerism or speech or persona do not match the words I read/heard when we where apart. Granted it's my cross to bear that I do not believe the printed word or whats said via the phone can alone can override my sensibilties to a point where from the roof tops and down the street I proclaim "I'm in love... I'm in love". course thats just me..
I am always happy to hear of love happening between anyone.
Good Luck in your Quest for Happiness, and having/getting whatever it takes...
Ahh yeas i still remember some tidbits especially a couple of recipes. many years ago back when yearly I would attend a socail activity just to get a five dollar ticket for smoking, back in the day when we could walk down the street in unison with out applying 90 days in advance for permission to do so... but to say I owned a copy NO just enjoyed reading it for about 2 months, printers and such where not quite so easily accessible back ..hard to copy the old school way..
thanks for bringing back thohse memories ...Like Wow
I must be old school I see love as a multifacted type of relationship that has been nurtured and tended and carefor it is the end product love is the bounty of a garden that was tended daily by more then sun or more then water. I might be limiting myself but seriously theres no way I'm gonna "LOVE" someone based strictly fron online contact and phone conversation. I hope to make friends while searching for my special someone. so just b'cause they are miles away I will not discount their freindship. If indeed it is love then miles are not the barrier that is keeping you separated. Its the lack of sacrifice and joint commitment, from both parties. there is what you can hold in your hand, and there is what you hold in your heart. What's the value you place on each of these in your life??? if you had to choose objects/things that made you happy over happiness of heart, whch would you choose. here's a question if what if one or the other had to give up a social status or a prominent postion wouold they still be LOVE material?? Family ,minus children, if they love you they will understand, same as freinds they will not stop being what they are to you becasue of "miles".
there is such a difference in social drinking and marathon drinking. I agree that many different things that can relax both women and men are addictive... have aneighbor lady who does about everything in her jaccuzzi... I worry about her damaging her inner organs ..she like is getting par-bolied in that thing... now shes complaining of always being cold yeah moderation is the key, I hate seeing people drinking alone... or those that because they have some in the bottle or sitting in refrigerator feel it has to be consumed instead of just letting it sit there for next time... Oh and those who have addictive behavior disorder..anything can destroy there family job, or life.
Those that cannot distingquish the difference between social and other types of drinking I wonder what other misconceptions they have about having a social life and life in general.
my reasons are simple, when not in love... minds stray, the body needs contact. If in love, then a distance thing arose... then, I believe in our love and her that no distance could damage our union..in fact maybe make it stronger...
"dayum skippy" I do exactly that....."read the profile" the thought I get from these types is they are not readers and correspondence with them will be futile anyway.
I read the profiles in fact I see the checklist first, then picture ( not all take good picures, myself included)then read profile. Now to these ladies here who post, after reading your words of wisdom, insight, wit, humor and compassion I do read your profiles,sometimes often. Although many of you are many miles away, your posts are here for me on any given day.
that's the reason I return to forums daily... plus the fact that some of your opinons are just WHACK....
I have seen and met many who because of certain medications are ...let's say "already relaxed ". I know many if their medication was taken away they would be what is called boozers. I am fortunate enuff to not be on altering medication. the thought that having a drink or 2 at a social function/gathering is wrong...well they are entitled to their opinions. And those who think just cause a doctor prescibes something it's OK or different.... well, we all have our own flags to salute.
my weekly consumption depends on numerous things. Company I keep is the Number 1 deciding factor. This week I have not. Week B4 last I indulged, I should add "yet" to this week, holiday and all upon us but you never know, again it depends on many elements.
someone memtioned the "as time goes by" factor. I like to see how they interact with chikldren from their own family/neighbors. We all try to put our best foot forward when meeting anyone and sometimes... best impressions are flat out lies and misrepresentations. You're an adult, he has your interest, thats good, but you are raising a family and their best interests are something you should always be considering. Children are great sources of information when their parents are around...and not. most parents know what i'm saying about a childs actions with parents in room and the childs actions and responses can speak volumes of a person. Slow and steady on this issue.
I like to speak of another issue ..someone befreinding the young child before you have decided whether or not you gonna do the "everafter dance". being a man this has happened to me, seeing someone a couple times, then enters a discarded upset ex prospective boyfreind who has won the heart of the child but it is clear to the adults he is using the child much like a ex spouse can do...
consider long and carefully who you introduce your child to. I get a little leery when a woman pushes that I met her children, with lines like you'll love them, or I know my kids they'll love you , this after only 2 dates....criss sakes she don't even know me.
I currently am a pateint care tech/ medical assistant who also attends classes 4 days a week (Nursing) and seminars when possible. I love the rewards that assistang in therapy gives me, watching patients recovery, thruout the entire process. the pay.. well, who here makes what they think is the proper wage for tasks they perform. I could be making more money if I returned to my prevous profession, but when the job makes you miserable at home it's time for a change. If not for your own health reasons, then for those around you. I learned that my coming home miserable almost instilled in my kids that being an a**hole jerk/ grumpy is from having a job. Yah I enjoy my job now and the field I've pickd to persue.
Love is Blind. only when you have reached the summit... can love be blind. The climbing of this relationship mountain, to overcome the hazards, to avoid those "slippery slopes", until we have reach the peak of relationships our eyes must be used along with all other senses at our disposal.... many mountains in life, but to attain the pinnacle of love you need to see.
the thought of being with a perfect woman gives me the shivers.... I once had the misconception that there was such a thing.... the memories of that still haunt me. I could do nothing right, everything was less than satisfactory....the kicker in this is it was mt doing I thought/believed she was perfect and convinced her she was.
I'm better now.... really i am
maybe perfection is what occurs to 2 people when they find and truly love one another above all else......at least thats a revised thought I have adopted from my past experiences.
Dayum this is something to think about...it has happened on occasion, but am I missing oppportunites? I detected a attraction once with her wearing sunglasses...
I am curious if one is wearing contacts would that like shield/prevent their interest "chemistry"from being seen by the other? thanks for this advice, maybe i should spend more time on looking at the eyes.... yesh right
Too much information?? (double ?? just for you RR)
I am of the thinking that too much information can be damaging. suppose someone gives a lot of information, you are now expected to remember it, and the down side this is a part of you they know now and can respond to the rest of your questions using what you disclosed. The plus side of giving too much information.... long quiet walks.
The new age has arrived and information is power. yes Susie, even in matters of the heart, a very unfortunate fact in todays society. some one will say information is nessasry to make an honest choice. Too Much Information is the topic not inforamtion in general.
The Qualities of an individual is the most important information to me. All the other stuff can be shared as/if the relationship grows.
OK if capital Punishment developes throughout the land ,
Can we reinstate Debtor's Prison?? road gangs hire out our prisoners to companies to help ease the tax burden of us poor unfortunate law abiding citizen types,
Wow the thought of capital punishment and debtors prisons coming to fruitition in my lifetime.....Oh yes folks in can happen, when capital punishment was widespread there was some sort of debtors prison...
actions reveal/demostrate commitment to those said intentions.
and just like any recipe that requires to be cooked slow the more seaoned it is, the better it will become. words ,actions touches, attentiveness, sincerity, these are just some of the many spices that can enhance and secure something truly wonderful.
As for me right now I'm doing the pot pies and TV dinners I sure do miss the good stuff,
just a Wednesday afternnon opinion... I think by doing this "day" crap I'll start to see a pattern on my emotional opinion scale.....
we all should go the our respective capitals and punish them.
If nothing else we would get out of the housde for a day or two.
ever since they developed justifiable crimes and killing, its hard to discern who indeed is a candidate for such punishment. Those religious/political fanatics who sacrifice their life for a belief contrary to ours... or the politicain who in his library of wisdom determines what is a acceptable body count.The young adult who made a mistake and while under the "influnece" killed an innocent. or the mass murderer who slipped though the cracks of society and received no help when it would have changed thier entire life.??? and the veteran that was so scarred form the death and direction given and done while in service but was trained weel enuff not to sho the syptoms.. maybe that person we al know who is addited to some type of drug and only wants money to provide for a habit he alone cannot kick...Which one would you think is the best subject or canidate for capital punishment.
by the way, I have a bumper sticker that reads "Kill them all... let their religious belief save them."
just a Wednesday afternoon opinion (did I memtion it's a beautful day )
RE: Sassy's thread...one ALLLLL her own!
Sassy is witty and has a fun sense of humor, however our profiles and wants conflict...
