What do you put in your Cold Potato Salad? Posted: 9/1/2007 10:23:33 AM
i keep a empty mayonnaise jar handy. after the potatoes are cooked, (red potatoes with the skin left on give it such a good taste)add your eggs to your potatoes and whatever else you want in it. i put mayo in the saved jar. before putting on the lid, i like to add a bit of milk to my mixture, as it makes it creamier and easier to stir once you add it to the potatoes. shake well, and pour over your potatoes. even after it is refrigerated, it stays creamy. i have never liked a dry potato salad. i do the same with macaroni salad. with this one i add sliced green olives in my jar with the mayo, then add some of the olive juice, and a bit of milk~~put the lid on, and give it a good shake.

What do you do to your hotdog? Posted: 6/21/2007 1:32:18 PM
The outside charred, and on the bun I like butter and then just a little bit of mustard. Don't knock it till you try it!! Very good combination!

How important are table manners to you? Posted: 5/23/2007 11:04:58 PM
there is nothing worse than someone who has terrible table manners!!! i don't like to see someone chew with their mouth open, and who "smacks" when they eat~that is someone who makes alot of noise when they chew~~but to me~~that is something that has to be taught at a very young age. talking and eating at the same time~~NOT a pretty sight!!!

great response creativguy!!! you said it all!! faithless510~~you are very young~~get out while you can. like many of the others said~it's hard for you to believe right now, but you are a beautiful young lady, and will meet someone that truly appreciates you. what he is doing only gets worse~the longer you stay. if one of my daughters were in a situation like this~i would welcomb them home with open arms, and be grateful they had enough sense to do something about it. no one better to help you through this than family. good luck..keep us posted.

going on 21 days. how long does it take? Posted: 5/8/2007 11:25:15 AM
3 months? you fell hard huh sugar!! it does take awhile to recover, and you will find yourself thinking about her and wondering what she is up to~~even after your recovery~ but~~to be fair to someone else, do put your time and effort into friends and hobbies for the time being. then you can go into a relationship bringing nothing from a past relationship. good luck! we all deal with things in different ways~~so take your time~~only you will know when you feel like moving on.

Could you date someone behind bars? Posted: 5/6/2007 6:45:18 PM
NO~~i couldn't. i worked with a girl who had a boyfriend that she knew was dealing drugs~~he was sentenced to not less than 5 years, but up to 25 years in prison. while he was in prison, she married him~~and brought pictures to work to show all of us! very proud indeed~~ him on one side of the bars~her on the other with the preacher. had pictures of the cake and the whole 9 yards. had children with this man, and would take them to the facility with her for visits!!! i know they say people can be at the wrong place at the wrong time~~take a wrong turn in their life, but i think if it was meant to be in a situation like that~`someone could wait until they get released~~to much can happen in that amount of time. you just don't know how people feel in their hearts, and what makes them do what they do.

distance... 30 miles? Posted: 5/6/2007 2:40:13 PM
i agree with lynn~~30 miles is NOTHING!!!! put on the radio and listen to some good music, and before you know it, you will be there! do NOT let this bother you. if you truly care about, or love someone, distance is no problem. and who knows~you may have the rest of your life to spend with him~don't sweat the small stuff. besides~learn how to make the most of the time you do have with someone special.

i am so sorry to hear this happened to you. the sad part about this situation, as others, is that you are nice enough and decent to help someone out, and this is how they re-pay you~~THEY DON'T!!! what is worse, is when a family member does it to you~~and acts as though it was a gift!!!! i am sure at one point or another, big or small, we all go through things like this. all we can do is truly hope we learn from our mistake. next time if it happens, offer the person a tissue or shoulder to cry on!!

How do you stop having feelings for someone who will never have them for you? Posted: 4/29/2007 7:50:00 PM
kodibop2~~i am very sorry you are going through this. having feelings for someone who does not return your feelings, and feel the same as you is hard. but~~one way to get over it and move on, (or try to) is ask yourself why you would want someone who doesn't share your feelings, and want to be with you. time heals all~~and it will depend on you as to how long it will be before you heal from this, and feel you can go into another relationship with all of this behind you. i think that for the time being you need to drop out of dating (just long enough to deal with how you feel) concentrate on yourself, tell yourself you deserve better, and move on from this experience. although you may not believe this now~~there is a young lady out there waiting for you, that will be able to return what you are looking for. you will later down the road~~ask yourself~ how did i EVER let myself think and feel that way. you know the saying~~learn from past mistakes. best of luck, and let me know how you are doing. feel free to send a message if you like. always seems to make a person feel better to talk things out~GOOD LUCK~~ Marie~~alijoe29

Invited a woman to drive 60 miles to meet for a cup of coffee !! Posted: 4/23/2007 9:02:37 PM
Astreaa~~first i want to start by saying i was a bit offended when i tried to send you a message and it said you do not accept any messages from someone my age or gender!!! I wanted to message you because i saw you are from the harrisburg area, and i grew up in mechanicsburg. just trying to nice and friendly. did you ever stop to think that you can meet and talk to some very nice people ~~called friends, on this site? i have read of few of your posts, and i must say~you leave alot to be desired with your attitude. if i were interested in someone, distance would NOT be an issue. what is wrong with just coffee? he may have been leaving it open to both of you~~ if you didn't hit it off~~it gave you the chance to leave early. lunch and dinner could have come later provided you hit it off. Thorn~~if you read this~~now you have the right attitude~~I love it, and nothing wrong with being very honest and truthful!! keep up the good work.

Your Worst Kissing Experience Posted: 3/26/2007 10:12:40 PM
the worst kissing experience for me was when he would kiss me, drool would run down the side of my mouth. i would try to turn my head after he finished kissing me to wipe the slobber off. i'm not just talking a little slobber~~i could feel it running down my check!!! YUK! YUK!!!!!

Letting someone know you just want to be friends. Posted: 3/25/2007 8:26:07 PM
i also agree with alot of the others on this post. honesty is the best policy~~but there is a way to tell someone the truth. no one likes getting their feelings hurt~or rejection. sometimes it seems the worse you treat a guy~~the more they keep coming back. on the other hand, the nicer you are to them, then they assume you want something from them. some women just are not satisfied with only being your friend.

Ladies....would you wear a t-shirt, flip-flops, and shorts 1st time meeting someone? Posted: 3/20/2007 11:36:04 PM
i do not see a problem here. you are from arizona, and this is a 1st meeting, which is usually just meeting for something to drink, and to see if you hit it off. i'm sure if there were to be a 2nd date and plans were made, the outfit would be different..you should be more concerned as to what her personality is like.

How Much Body Hair is Too Much on a Man/Woman? Posted: 3/15/2007 4:26:05 PM
nose hairs gotta go!!! go to wal-mart and buy a trimmer..also long hair sticking out of the ears is nasty!! i went to a work out place that had a girl working there, who had so much hair above her lip, she looked like a man. bad thing about it is that it was very dark. some of us ladies asked her why she didn't have it removed, and she said if the good lord didn't want her to have hair there, he wouldn't put it there. i always wondered how a man could kiss a woman like that. as far as hair on men..i love hair on the chest...nothing better than snuggling beside a man and rubbing your fingers through his chest hair..wow!! i guess to me it's how a man feels about a woman with no hair on her private area. but i do draw the line..the back hair is to much. especially when it makes you look like a gorilla!!! i also think it may be against some religions to remove it..i don't know. if you can braid it or put bows on your arm hair...NASTY!!!

Anyone ever made Potato Pancakes? Posted: 3/14/2007 7:55:00 AM
save your leftover mashed potatoes. add egg, salt and pepper, and flour. some people like to add onion to their's. make them into patties..sort of the size of a salmon patty and fry in oil. when we were growing up, we used to like to put a little ketchup on the plate to dip them in. they are very good for breakfast with some eggs. good luck~~eat and enjoy!!

interesting profile~~i did notice it said you were separated, but yet at the bottom of your profile it said "must not be married". first of all~~neither one of you needs to rush into another relationship. take the time to see what is out there~~and yes, that means dating other people. that is the only way to truly see and find out who you want to spend your time with. i myself, never wanted to get involved with someone on the rebound(i dislike that word)because i have found that most of the time it doesn't work. that is part of the problem today with people you divorce or separate. when 2 people are separated there always is the chance of working out the problems and remaining together. also~~you should respect the fact that she does want to take her time~~that doesn't mean she is closing the door so to speak on what the 2 of you could have. i agree with some of the others~~if it is meant to be~~it will happen~~and you should be thankful she is taking her time and not rushing into anything. good luck in finding what it is you want. and who knows~~down the road you may find it's not her. i don't think you should close the door on other women~~enjoy the time~~fishing before you commit again.

IS AGE REALLY A FACTOR? Posted: 3/12/2007 8:40:51 AM
as much as we all like to think that age does not matter~~sooner or later in a relationship, it does matter. someone who is 15 to 20 years older than you~~does have different taste~~down to something as simple as music. there are some age different relationships out there that probably do work. i have seen more that ended up not working. good luck~~i hope it works if this is what you want.

Does independance intimidate most men? Posted: 3/5/2007 6:33:10 AM
if a woman is "independant" that doesn't mean she doesn't want a man in her life~~it only means she CAN take care of herself~~someone in her life would just be a plus. women need to learn how to be independant and take care of themselves. say something should happen to their partner~~then all of a sudden they are faced with not only being on their own, but now taking care of themselves. i think it all goes back to a guys ego~~for some reason they don't like it when a woman also makes more money than they do. also, i was brought up to know how to take care of yourself~~and to be honest with you~~i never had time for myself. i raised 4 children on my own~~no help from the x~`no child support. why would a man want a woman who always needed him and depending on him, and couldn't stand on her own 2 feet? when my 2 oldest daughters were dating it seemed that the more hateful they treated a guy~~the longer the guy stuck around!! but yet when a woman is so good to a man, treats him with respect, and can't do enough~~off they run. they think you want something~~here we are back to independance~~no~~i can take care of myself!!!!!

Long hair on older women Posted: 2/28/2007 11:02:17 AM
i am 56 and my hair is very long. i think it depends on the woman, and what makes her feel good about herself. length is no problem if it is kept clean and a nice style. i never blow dry my hair, all i do is scrunch it~~my profile picture is an older one~~but i do use good products on it, and it looks, and is healthy. some womwn want the length~~but do nothing to keep it up. they used to say that when you get older, you should keep a short style~~that has changed along with the times~

i agree with some of the other ladies. you call her when you feel ready and comfortable. pick somewhere to go where you will be able to talk and enjoy each other's company. since the weather is getting a bit better, maybe a park would be a nice start. that way you will be able to talk and decide if you want want to see her more. good luck!!
