Thanks for the roses!! you welcomed me and made a real difference here...you need to stay...for yourself and those of us who you've made smile...Come on...admit it...we've hopefully helped you too...yes? So keep on walkin the walk, and talkin the talk. I may bop in and out of here...haven't been in lately...but come on back..ya hear. And share.. Best
I'm always more impressed by those who do...I appreciate a man with manners...makes me feel cared for - great first impression. So..I say...be polite gentleman! I'll be in NH at the end of the month...by the by...Sunapee NH
Great questions 'fire', and a thought provoking thread...I think you need to get out and do things that interest you...find groups of folks doing something that you'd feel comfortable doing whatever it is with them...I've found that if I go looking for someone...it never works out..when I go out and do something for me...biking, joining a cooking class...or even shopping at the garden center nearby...I meet more people with similar interests - tonight I'm going to an event where you take a hike with a naturalist to learn about the frogs and toads in the area...then there's a dinner afterwards prepared by some local famous chef...I'm not even sure I'm interested in learning about frogs..but I like to hike..and the dinner is sure to be interesting..most likely..all attending will be married folks, but it'd something different to try...and I think, it'll be fun and interesting??
Why is everyone getting so huffy?? Or am I just reading something into the comments here...Meilandra is just "verbalizing" some observations...I think it's interesting...makes you think..which is never a bad thing. Did I miss something?
Wow..you've really put alot of thought into this...after my divorce, I read Men are from Mars, Women from Venus...great book. Helps you understand the male/female relationship from a general/generic point of view..
I have a "date" tonight...english is his second language...wonder if all of the above still holds true??
Just went thru this..prior to my grandparents passing on..my mom and her brother sat down with them and although not a pleasant conversation, went thru the house, and tagged things - things for the church were tagged, things for the local college, family and relatives, etc...once the "vultures" knew that they were included and would in fact receive something ...they seemed to go away...then when both grandparents had passed away...all tagged items where sorted, delivered, and that was that...so one weekend of serious discussion and "tagging" seemed to resolve the issues...
Absolutely incredible...Lion, you are a fountain of information...I have to keep this thread... it's got everything you need to know about absolutely every subject...we could create a CS Facts of life book with all this information...and yes...I'm guilty of starting it...but am oh so glad I did!!
Welcome to CS...and TGIF!! Don't know about where you all are...but here its raining and cold...tomorrow is suppose to be raining and cold..and I have to go camping tonight with my daughter (Girl Scouts) yuk...but "I'm going to be a good sport"...and Saturday, I'm going to go out...dancing I think...now that's the ticket! Enjoy!
Personally...don't think you'll get to the "love" stage if something they do bugs you too much...my mother tells a story of a man she was dating...he didn't use his silverware correctly on a dinner date and displayed poor manners...and she couldn't get past it..never saw the guy again....guess it wasn't meant to be...
Focus switches to viewpoint from the girl...her fingers twisting, damp with the sweat of nerves...she sees him, and smiles..he's a bit shorter than she expected, and she starts to worry when his searching eyes move past her...still searching the room. She screws up her courage...walks over to him and ...
okay someone else jump in here...let's get this baby cooking...
How about a comedy...about a guy who is about to meet a girl on a forum like this...she seems to be everything he wants...they meet...and....
she doesn't look at all like what he thought... thoughts rush thru his head...he likes what she's written him...enjoyed talking with her on the phone...and now they finally meet...
My son plays...as do most of his friends...but it is very complicated...putting together your deck, etc.. They play for hours however...so must be addictive.
Hi...I'm Wendy...very new to CS. I'm an optimist with a busy life raising two kids, and working 24-7...these forums are interesting, and enlightening...sometimes too negative for me, but I'm forever hopeful that if I keep trying new things, and keep putting one foot in front of the other...someone good will come into my life, and I'll find someone that loves an artistic, down-to-earth positive person for what I am....
There must be singles groups in your area...winetasting events, or something...here there's a group that puts together a singles event the first Thursday of each month at a different restaurant/bar...it's been a great way to meet lots of singles in a nonthreatening environment..or perhaps you can join a club in your area - volunteer somewhere where you can indulge your interests as well as give yourself the opportunity to meet some new folks.
Cannot promise you'll succeed...but focus on yourself and what you like to do...go to a salon for some treatment you've never had, eventually...things will happen for you. Worst case...you'll meet some great new friends that share your interests...
You gotta be positive to have positive things happen in life...that's my motto...good Saturday morning all...it's a gorgeous day...I'm going to call some folks I haven't heard or spoken to in awhile..and see if I cannot get something cooking for tonight...you never know...
Being the perpetual optimist...perhaps the guy just got busy...or something happened...I've had people email me from CS...and all of a sudden they drop off the face of the earth...I wonder what I said (or typed as the case may be) and several days later...out of the blue..they are back. So I'd give the guy the benefit of the doubt...send a message thanking him for the evening...and if your friend really enjoyed the evening out...tell him that..and ask what you did wrong..life's a learning experience after all...
I agree though...I think he should have the honor and courage to at least communicate what's up...
Okay...I'll start this thread early (Friday night) so all you folks can post the best events that happened to you this weekend...best dates, best adventures, funniest events, etc...then those of use with nothing to do but clean the house, and finish the latest crafty project...and take kids shopping for prom dresses/suits..and have something to live precariously thru...
So...it's Friday evening..here anyway...by tomorrow or Sunday, I hope to fun so fun, great stories...
Good Lord...where did you get all these fun facts?? Please tell me you didn't type all these up...you must have cut and pasted from some website...or were these just top of mind facts you have in your head :>) Useful Tidbits to fill in a lull in conversation on a date...
When I was in Florida...I saw lots of birds that spent more time under the water than flying thru the air...kinda like the Loon...that was kinda strange.
Okay, for fun, and since I'm new to this..I thought I'd see how many fun facts everyone can share...
I'll start..Today..4/5/06...a once in a lifetime event occur that will never occur again...at two minutes and three seconds after 1:00 in the morning...the time and date was
I'm new to this...but thought I'd see if there are any Western suburb Mpls gentleman out there in my age group...can anyone share where I might take some golf lessons?
