Thanks for the clarification. Unfortunately, some fishies like to call themselves "separated", when in fact they are still attached , just checking out the pond for something better  | |

Posted: 10/26/2009 4:36:38 PM | | I agree that it is a problem with these sites. In my opinion, if the person is not ready to commit to one person and give it a go, then really it's their problem. They will never be satisfied and will probably continue looking for a really long time. In the meantime where are they? Single, looking and alone. | |

Posted: 10/26/2009 5:44:13 PM | I "use" to wonder about the mindset of certain individuals out there,,,always peeking around the corner for that "other" someone who "could" be "potentially" a better fit. I did say "use" to,,,,,,not so much anymore. I have watched more and more people in our society looking for that bigger,,,better,,, or whatever,,,,CONTINUOUSLY.It seems to be an "expectation" of sorts for a lot nowadays,,,,and not just in the "partner" category.
Bigger TV,,,,cause the one you're watching isn't the new and improved. New computer,,,,what??? every year,,,,second year????? cause......well,,,it's not up to snuff on the "new and improved" stuff that keeps coming up. Cel phone???? You don't have a blackberry????? I could go on,,,but it's right there in front of us. People have come to expect something new to come along and replace what is working fine for them today,,,,but could use a little tweek here and there,,,,,to keep "up". Ahhhhh,,,,we'll just toss it,,,and get sumttin better. And if that doesn't work,,,,sumttin will come along to fix that.
Well,,,as we age,,,,we are now the "replaceable". I know I am. I'm not as pretty as I once was. I've got body parts that, no matter how much I oil,,,they still squeak,crack and snap. I have an opinion,,,,,that I VOICE,,,,cause I'm not as naive(or stupid,,,take your pick) as I once was,,,which in turn causes some bumpy roads.
Take it as you will,,,but what you face here on POF is a mindset,,,that a LOT have. They can(and will) give ya the reasons for their actions. It's up to you to listen to the horse ca ca or tell them to put it,,,you know where. | |

Posted: 10/26/2009 7:23:07 PM | Agree with Walts ^^thread.
I find the society doesn't wish to accept the first person that could be right or even be a start to a friendship. The need vs wanting a relationship has come down to single meet. We have to make sure we dress the part, look the part, smile and have the right words, in less than 5 seconds, you're history and they're running to the next. 
The choices that people have, is like walking into a candy store, with selection of whatever they might be looking for, is ideal for their mind, but in reality, its only a quick fix. Relationship as we all know, take time to grow, some people might be the right fix, but it might not get off to a quick start, yet to grab a relationship, is liking go through Mcdonalds drive throu. 
Relationship will only succeed if we slow down, actually have a conversation and look one another in the eyes. Everyone has a story to share, some are better at convering than others and its that art of conversation that could lead to something.
Did I say ... Times up...gosh | |

Posted: 10/26/2009 11:06:16 PM | | blushing here and I appreciate your proposal...:-) I shouldn't be talking about vows before I've even met the right girl. You said it in one of your posts though.... The good old days where you met someone and worked your ass off trying to get a date and you only concentrated on them, with no other distractions. I was emailed three times by a woman with the same message...(pretty certain I was cut and pasted!..lol) probably along with a lot of others guys here. If you throw out a big enough net, your sure to land at least one fish. My original BBD question was just to generate a difficult topic where there were no easy answers and everybody is uncomfortable talking about. My next post will be about something lighter....like "Why is the sky blue?" I already know the answer to that one.. | |
