Hi Madottati, nice to meet you. Your off to a good start by posting a thread. I have met alot of very freindly people here. Relax and enjoy the ride. Good luck with the move.
I don't think so. I was raised in an Irish Catholic family. Lived our childhood years according to the Good Book. As an adult I have stepped away from that and just become more spiritual. As an adult you are entiled to have your own feelings and beliefs. What ever makes your spirit and soul feel at peace is what matters. Not what others think you should do and believe.
Thanks Crystal! It's always nice to be appreciated for a tough job. Just try to relax and take it easy. As a mother of four kids I know there is never enough time in the day to do it all.
I don't know whether taking the CD player was such a good idea. Nothing against your family but respect and responsibility is taught at home. Your sister should have made your nephew pay you back in a timely manner. You didn't keep him waiting to recieve the $ you should not have to wait to be paid back. I understand that most teens don't make alot of money but even if he gave you $5.00 a week until it's paid back.It would show good faith and responsibility. Good luck with settling this family dispute.
Think before responding!!! Would you be intereested in a dating relationship with someone who wasn't a head turner? Do you base your reactions on looks first and second the personality. Would you give them a real honest chance and get to know them or blow them off because they didn't meet with your idea of what attractive is. Think of it this way. What if you were to open a beautifully wrapped present with all the ribbons and bows only to be disappointed with the empty contents of the box or open a plain brown bag and find inside the contents to be filled with everything you had ever hoped and dreamed of having inside.You never will know what you find unless you open all gifts you recieve.
There is no-way to please everyone all the time. I wiil be totally honest with everybody reguarding all situations. You don't have to be brutal with the truth just tell it like it is. As far as opinions go, they are like -ssholes, everybody has one!!
No offence meant but, maybe just maybe your ego is alittle to big. Not all flowers or contacts are interested in a relationship with you other than a friendship. Some people are just trying to meet new and interesting people. If you are so offended about people "hitting" on you, you should change your name from designingwoman looking for "marriage minded only" I am not saying that you are not entiled to your own opinion about what you want in life.( After all opinions are like belly buttons everybody has one!!!)Just don't be mean or jump to the wrong conclusions.
Well, I'm probably older than most of you. I agree that a physical attraction is important but only to a degree. I have had instant "mutual attractions" only to find that there was nothing else. That's why I will never judge a man based on looks. Think of it this way, Would you have a beautifully wrapped present with all the ribbons and bows and open it only to be diappointed at the contents, or would you rather open a plain brown bag and find everything you had ever hoped and dreamed of inside? For me I'll take the brown bag every time!!!!
LAST WEEK WAS MY BIRTHDAY AND I DIDN'T FEEL VERY WELL WAKING UP THAT MORNING.
I WENT DOWNSTAIRS FOR BREAKFAST HOPING MY WIFE WOULD BE PLEASANT AND SAY, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!", AND POSSIBLY HAVE A PRESENT FOR ME.
AS IT TURNED OUT, SHE BARELY SAID GOOD MORNING, LET ALONE "HAPPY BIRTHDAY."
I THOUGHT... WELL, THAT'S MARRIAGE FOR YOU, BUT THE KIDS WILL REMEMBER.
MY KIDS CAME INTO BREAKFAST AND DIDN'T SAY A WORD.
SO WHEN I LEFT FOR THE OFFICE, I WAS FEELING PRETTY LOW AND SOMEWHAT DESPONDENT.
AS I WALKED INTO MY OFFICE, MY SECRETARY, JANE SAID, "GOOD MORNING, BOSS, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" IT FELT A LITTLE BETTER THAT AT LEAST SOMEONE HAD REMEMBERED.
I WORKED UNTIL ONE O'CLOCK AND THEN JANE KNOCKED ON MY DOOR AND SAID, "YOU KNOW, IT'S SUCH A BEAUTIFUL DAY OUTSIDE, AND IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY, LET'S GO OUT TO LUNCH, JUST YOU AND ME."
I SAID, "THANKS JANE, THAT'S THE GREATEST TH ING I'VE HEARD ALL DAY. LET'S GO!"
WE WENT TO LUNCH. BUT WE DIDN'T GO WHERE WE NORMALLY WOULD GO. WE DINED INSTEAD AT A LITTLE PLACE WITH A PRIVATE TABLE. WE HAD TWO MARTINIS EACH AND I ENJOYED THE MEAL TREMENDOUSLY.
ON THE WAY BACK TO THE OFFICE, JANE SAID, "YOU KNOW, IT'S SUCH A BEAUTIFUL DAY... WE DON'T NEED TO GO BACK TO THE OFFICE, DO WE?"
I RESPONDED, "I GUESS NOT. WHAT DO YOU HAVE IN MIND?"
SHE SAID, "LET'S GO TO MY APARTMENT."
AFTER ARRIVING AT HER APARTMENT JANE TURNED TO ME AND SAID, "BOSS, IF YOU DON'T MIND, I'M GOING TO STEP INTO THE BEDROOM FOR A MOMENT. I'LL BE RIGHT BACK."
"OK." I NERVOUSLY REPLIED.
SHE WENT INTO THE BEDROOM AND, AFTER A COUPLE OF MINUTES; SHE CAME OUT CARRYING A HUGE BIRTHDAY CAKE... FOLLOWED BY MY WIFE, KIDS, AND DOZENS OF MY FRIENDS AND CO-WORKERS, ALL SINGING "HAPPY BIRTHDAY".
A farm woman accompanied her husband to the doctor's office. After a lengthy check-up,the doctor took the wife aside and told her, " If you don't do the following exactly as I tell you, your husband will lose his will to live and will surely die".
Each morning, I want you to fix him a hearty breakfast of bacon and eggs and fresh baked muffins before he does the 5 o'clock milking.
At lunch, make him a warm, nutritious meal with home-made pie for dessert. And make sure the hammock is set up under the shade tree so he can rest before he goes back into the field
Serve him supper with a smile, no matter what time of day or night he gets in from chores. And don't burden him with household concerns while he's eating.
After supper, ease him into his favorite chair, and give him a beer and the TV remote control so he can watch the game.
You musy continue to do all these things everyday without fail or your husband will die.
On the way home, the husband asked his wife " what the doctor had to say about his condition, She replied, The doctor said " your gonna die "!
If you really still love her, then by all means talk to her (not at her). If you are just lonely don't bother. Let sleeping dogs sleep. Even if your ex dosen't want to give your relationship a second chance, getting all your thoughts and feelings out, will enable you to finally close that chapter in your life and move on. Whenever you are trying to work things out in a relationship, you must be ready to really listen, even though you may not like what is being said. Be honest with her and yourself. Good Luck!
I have been a long time believer that we as adults cannot blame society or our enviroment on our problems. Just because you may have grown up with abusive or drug addicted parents dose not mean that we will turn out the same way. Life is what we make it. If we aren't happy with our lives it's up to us to change it not the people around us. Even a small child know the difference between right or wrong. Want a better life, make better choices. Don't play the blame game.

Yes i would date someone with kids. I have four kids. The last serious relationship I had, the guy got along with my kids fine. Then as things progress toward marriage he started trying to be lord and master changing all the rules I set. Changing everything around to his way of thinking. Well, we all sat down to try and come to a compromise but he wouldn't budge. Didn't take much more to kick him to the curb. Should have taken the hint since he has a son that dosen't ever want to be around him.
I am not sure whether all guys have issues with womans kids or not. I think they are thinking the women are looking for someone to take over the responibility of being "daddy". Their are alot of woman out there who are like that, but just as many who aren't. Woman with kids have it hard trying to find a man who can except that her children are her first priority. Men get real angry if plans are cancelled because of something that cme up with the kids. Understand this, a parents job isn't 9 to 5. It's 24-7-365.
Hello rgd1111, I am new here too! So far I have found this site and it's people very interesting and I keeep coming back. Jump in and introduce yourself. Find a profile that interest you and send a note. Good luck
I can't speak for anyone but myself. I always say what I mean and mean what I say. If i don't feel like talking about something that's bothering me I tell you. I will also Thank You for asking.
I like to think so. I know all my faults big or small, and will readily admit them. I think for the most part people say that they want people to be honest with them but when they are, they get pissed off. Be careful what you ask for because you just might get it. I think you have to be totally honest with yourself before you can be with others. Yes, I do think it scares people. Some people just can't handle the truth.The truth can hurt.
Well I am a few years older than you and I learned the hard way. I had this crazy idea of what Mr. Right looked like. Wouldn't give anyone else a chance. Sad thing was I found him what a disppointment. I let a real sweet guy get away because he wasn't exactly whay I thought he should look like. Never make that mistake again.
I am seperated after a 15yr marriage. Don't think I ever do it again. Never got around to the big D yet. Had another relationshipfor two years but it didn't work. The guy works for corrections and brought the job home!
