Could you still argue with someone on the forums if? Posted: 12/26/2007 8:58:45 AM
There's having a bit of high spirited fun & then there's intentionally trying to one up someone in a rather nasty territorial manner. Nothing wrong with enjoying some brain tickling fun but once it gets personal or turns to bulling... game over man, game over. Keep it swift & sharp but never use it to stab.

How far is too far? Posted: 12/26/2007 8:50:59 AM
I feel it is an old joke that was cracked ages ago by someone else on here Ahhh, yes... the "old as the dust on the hinges of hell" joke. I think I recall it in the history books... somewhere. snicker... ehhem... back on topic... That would be too far a reach.

How far is too far? Posted: 12/26/2007 7:54:11 AM
I went the extra mile before, even left my home and moved into this strange country for the right man (at the time!). Things have changed but nevertheless, I am willing to do it again. So maybe I am not the only one who would move to be with someone. I can understand why many would not want to move to... say, the US. Many Americans who've been outside their country can't stand things here. If Bush spoke for you, would you be all warm and fuzzy about it? (sorry... *stepping off soapbox) Point being, it seems most people would like to meet an interesting person, but only in their own back yard... where as I would cross seas for the opportunity to find out.

Are MEN marketable after age 30? Posted: 12/25/2007 9:50:27 PM
Marketable... ? ... *shudder... Just thinking about men as if they're a used car or second hand sweater makes me ill. People put so much emphases on what's normal, on what's expected or cool. Where's the humanity? We are all subject to some toils when it comes to the issues of dating. One person wants this, one person wants that... it becomes a blur of nonsense. Just my little rant... pay no attention to the voice behind the curtain.

How far is too far? Posted: 12/25/2007 6:12:24 PM
I apologize to GrumpyOldWoman, in advance if my question steps outside the concept of what defines "too far". As in my case, I have flown to other countries & trial lived with the person of intrest, in order to see if indeed chemistry existed. Therefore: I simply refer to a situation where one or both parties spend time living in the other's home country with them. If travel time was the issue, would "get to know you" vacations suffice instead? *leaves cookies for GrumpyOldWoman as a thank you...

This poses a follow up question: If you live great distances or in separate countries, would you be willing to allow them to come spend time in your world in order to get to know you?

Guilty... *nahhhh... For me, Europe is home. It's not an uncomfortable idea to return there permanently to be with the right man. Scotland, wow... so beautiful. All the best! :)

Perhaps I am an odd exception to the rule, but moving to certain countries for a relationship has not been out of the question for me. I even flew to Milan, to see if there was chemistry enough for the next step... while there was not, it was still worth the adventure & friendship. If he's the right one, it's worth it. ...my 2 cents... :)

DUMB QUESTIONS Posted: 10/14/2007 12:01:22 PM
My grandmother used to work for Army Community Services. She would process the start up paperwork of military families who needed extra assistances. I still remember this one guy who came in looking for baby supplies. She began by asking him basic information... "name... age... ssn... dob..." (It went on until they got to birthplace...) She asks "And where is your place of birth?" He answers "I's born in Alabama" (so sorry if you too, are from Alabama...) She continues" So, you're a natural born US citizen?" He belts out "Daggonit lady, NO! I dun told ya I was from Alabama!" (...and the room went silent...)

pets Posted: 10/14/2007 10:57:11 AM
There many reasons why cats get excited or upset when something changes in the house. It may be the newly weaken state of the "peace maker" of the house or a delayed response to the new cat. Only they know for sure. There are many things you can do to aid in restoring a calm state to the household. Many times, simply adding a dose of facial pheromones into the air will set things right. Here's a great site to check out... http://www.drsfostersmith.com/pic/article.cfm?aid=730 The wall dispensers work very well for most distressing cat issues & even for random "peeing". Hopefully you will find resolution very soon. Best to all of you. :)

Question about Frequency of Drinking Posted: 10/14/2007 10:05:03 AM
Perhaps, it's best to ask the person who posted that profile. After all, often to them may mean anything from... they have a glass of wine each night with dinner ..to... they tear it up Monday through Friday. This is the great divide when it comes to understanding profiles. The only one who really understands their profile, it the one who's posting it.

What does the term Friend mean to you? Posted: 10/14/2007 10:01:42 AM
Everyone has their own meaning for "friend" & it's similar to how people define "love". As long as you understand what it means to you, I wouldn't worry too much about how it differs from anyone else's. ;) We wander through life, seeking new experiences & meeting new people. If we hit it off with someone, the may become our friend. The idea being, two people have found some level of connection in common. The degree of connection only matters to the person grading it. :)

Has anyone ever started out just as friends and then later become a couple? Posted: 9/30/2007 10:53:12 AM
Sometimes it's a matter of dating someone they already know they get along with. Rather than the pressure to be attracted to a stranger based on potential sexual attraction(which may end up being fleeting), they prefer to build on something of long term value. If a friendship has already been established, both parties know the basic important information about each other. The only difference to this scenario might be that the rush of the unknown has been replaced with the security of the familiar. It can still be exciting, just not in the same sense as it would be with a complete stranger. Think of it as upgrading your favorite car to a race car, rather than buying an unfamiliar one to break in. To each their own. :)

Am I projecting the image I want? Posted: 9/29/2007 11:11:12 AM
I have to say, considering you're age(and the average profile for someone in their 20's), it's is well written. It's clean & straight forward. I'd do a bit of spell proofing(enthusiasm, for example) but the rest looks nicely put together. Run with it! Best wishes on your search. :) ps- the pic of you on the phone may catch more attention. It's a very sharp shot. ;)

What tuns u on the most? personallity or looks? Posted: 6/22/2007 9:23:47 PM
A man's personality comes through in his physical being. His grace, mannerisms & sense of person will improve or ruin the way he presents himself. A graceless rude jerk with incredible looks is still a loser. Inside & outside... you can't have one without the other. :)

what women want ? Posted: 6/2/2007 2:18:37 PM
An honest impression... okay, strap in... First, I can only base this on is your post. No profile is available to view... not helpful. Onwards... When I hear guys ask this type of question, it comes across a bit like whinning. I don't get the "nice guy" vibe from someone who's baying stereotypical rubbish. (Sorry... remember, you did ask for opinons. Please try to see where this is coming from & not take it as a personal attack.) :) Moving on... no wonder you ladies go for the arrogant, egotistical, pompous(guys) who have a cold heart over a big heart, then complain about it later. Who are you to assume this? You are only one person & you have not met all the women. Granted, there will always be loud voices in the crowd, crying out 'foul play'... but to make such a broad sweeping generalization is to only ensure that those of us who might have concidered you as a nice guy... will think twice, especially after having read this. A nice guy will let every person's true nature speak for it's self before they go judging the masses by the issues of a few. This kind of pidgeonholing is the product of too many guys(girls do it too) sitting around complaining about things that are out of thier control or understanding. I don't know what kind of girls you've connected with, but if this is their common complaint, than perhaps it's a good time to examine who you associate with. (granted, demographics may be against you & you'll just have to take the higher ground) Please concider this... You wont get anywhere hung up on the idea that women don' t like you because you're quiet or shy or sweet or not the right amount of arrogant. It does pose the possibility that you have a slight issue with patience. Ahhh yes, good old patience... it's a bit like quick sand. The more you fight it, the more stuck you get.

is it love? Posted: 6/2/2007 12:52:07 PM
It's very easy to become infatuated with the desire to be in love. Until you stand face to face with a person's idiosyncrasies, you never get a full 360 degree view of who they are. Until then, it's a fantasy. Now, if you still adore them when milk shoots out their nose... it's love. ;P

non toxic washable body paint suggestions? Posted: 6/1/2007 10:10:44 PM
TIM GRATTON'S really is great stuff. Might be a bit pricey for casual user applications, though. A little trick we used to paint kids' faces was to use fabric paint (bought at any craft store for .75-2.50 per colour) mixed with a basic lotion. 3 pts paint to 1 pt lotion. It remains slightly tacky due to the lotion and can be cleaned off easily. (we used face powder to seal it) If you use straight paint, the reds & blues may stain a bit. It is an acrylic base, so it's a plasic polymer... get it on clothes & it may stain. (but that could be fun, too) :)

hmm... might just be my thing. I got all ten correct on the easy setting. Got 9 out of 10 on the medium setting & that's because I caught an error on the test word "somnambulant". Evidently the test thinks the dictionary is wrong too. snarff...

Charlotte area, anyone Posted: 5/30/2007 10:18:38 AM
Just getting set up in Charlotte, myself. I find the people have been very warm... I have been talking to quite a few super guys just in the past week alone. I even owe a big thanks to a certain fellow who's been helping me find a safe apartment. Can't complain about the mix of people here(than again, I never had reason to). :D
