WOW!!! justcueit.... I hope this is a recounting of a personal referrence. Anyway, You are right...Buyer Beware and I do believe that phrase is not gender specific. I have a few stories of my own where the villain is the female. I was a cop for 15 years and still own a security company and I can honestly say, ''trust no one'' ...Trust me on this one..LOL *note: I'm still your biggest fan even if you don't see me as often as you once did.

Loving hard, but not getting that love back? Posted: 2/3/2008 8:29:54 PM
We are only on page 2 and already I see a trend that does not make my heart happy. Most of the responses are valid in their own context, however, most are also talking about love as if were flour and could be measured and doled out as we seem fit. Strangely enough, I think that love is the only emotion that cannot be measured. I love my girlfriend and I do so unconditionally. I may not like her very much when she is being ****y or like her more when she gets all gussied up just for me, but the underlying love is still the same. I love her regardless of much I may be liking or disliking her at a particular moment. I also know she loves me although it may not be represented in the same way as my love for her. It doesn't make her love better or worse, just different. Understanding that love can not be measured in every day terms is the first step to true and lasting relationships. One person can not love another person more than that person can love them back if both loves are unconditional. JMHO As an after-thought, I would like to add that we do not choose the one we love - we only choose the ones we hurt.

OTTAWA PLENTY OF FISH SUNDAY AFTERNOON MINGLE, SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 2008 Posted: 2/3/2008 3:14:41 PM
I was going to comply with Deb's request and post about my experience with the PoF mingles and how I attended one way back last March and met the half that has completed me for the past ten months, but I won't because I noticed that Deb only wants those ''new'' attendees to post about their experiences. With that said, I will tentatively sign up for us both.

The Foundations Posted: 1/22/2008 12:40:28 AM
A healthy dose of respect for the other person as well as self wouldn't hurt and perhaps add tons and tons of patience. IMHO ... when you stop asking yourself ''What's in it for me?'' and start asking what you can say or do to enhance the other person's life and/or happiness ... that is when you are ready for a long term, committed relationship.

Fishing in a quiet pond. Keep fishing, or start to row? Posted: 1/8/2008 4:00:46 PM
Had you told me at any time in the past 50+ years that I would meet my life partner on a dating site, I would have told you that you were crazy! But... I did meet here through PoF some nine months ago and we are together stronger than ever. I travell 4/5 times a week to her town (some 100 miles away) and she comes to mine the other days. I don't think it is about the travelling, but rather the level of commitment to that person as well as the relationship. Hang in there, WoodsWalker... for in the infamous words of one Doris Day... '' Que sera ... sera!!!''

Marie France ... I told you of some words which had come to me when I was closing up the cottage. Now that I have sorted them and placed them in the correct order, I can post them for you to read. It was a cold November wind that blew in off the lake, Which found him on the dock, his heart about to break; Still thought of her fondly – from time to time, Honored her memory with words that did rhyme. He missed her presence so much in his life, Remembered the words that had cut like a knife; He’d loved her so deeply, but alas in vain, Her heart not in it – now, his, in pain. Ten years of lying had come to a stop, She’d only just used him – merely a prop; Although he did know that she had been right, The pain did not ease for her words still had bite. The weather turned bitter, the wind not a breeze, And still he sat there, his tears starting to freeze; He prayed to the only God that he knew, For the pain to be stopped and he, no longer be blue. He lingered so long that the rain turned to snow, Still he just sat there, his heart at a low; No drive, no ambition, nothing left to give, He wished his life over, no reason to live. They found him next spring when the snow it did melt, Still clutching the card that his life had been dealt; Her picture had faded and the ink it had run, But his heart was at peace – his life was now done. I still go and sit on the dock by the bay, And my mind starts to wander and ponder and stray; Just how different is my life from his? Never to know the true meaning of bliss. But I hear his great anguish as it blows on the breeze, On this cold November morning as my tears start to freeze; I stare at the picture I clutch in my hand, And know in my heart – my glass out of sand.

Relationships without long-term expectations...? Posted: 10/24/2007 10:12:27 PM
I cannot speak for the others, but I am in a committed relationship and I'm still here. But I am only here for the e-mails and the forums and my profile is "hidden" and has been for some time. If you are not on my Fvaorites list or I on yours, you will not be able to access my profile. Which is how it should be as I am not looking for anyone/anything. I hope this clarifies why "I" might still be here.

Relationships without long-term expectations...? Posted: 10/22/2007 9:22:16 PM
"Expectations" Therein lies the problem to most relationships (long or short term) We enter them with some sort of expectation(s) and when they are not realized, instead of working on the relationship and trying to remedy our own short-sightedness, we move on. Personally, I would rather be in a loving, caring, nurturing, giving, sharing relationship than married to someone based on half-baked truths, lies and/or innuendos. OK... so maybe my life choice is not for everyone and some need or want the comfort/solace they derive from waking and seeing their mate there beside them. I do not "need" this to know that she is there for me and with me in all that "we" do. But then ... we are happy so what do we know?

Relationships without long-term expectations...? Posted: 10/18/2007 6:48:14 PM
Well, leave it to "justcueit" to see inside my soul and ask the very question that has been on my mind. I will try to respond as honestly as I can knowing that this may be read by the person in question. I am fine with it. And in my case there is even the factor of some distance involved. Your question is not exactly my predicament, however, it does hit close enough to home to warrant a response. We have an "exclusivity" agreement betwen us and working on preserving our friendship/relationship for the "long haul" . There is nothing I wouldn't do for this lady and I consider myself in the FWB category, although it is not applicable in the PoF sense. The greatest "benefit" of my FWB is that we are "friends" foremostly and anything else is gravy. We talk everyday and spend 5/6 days a week together. We work together around the house, we help each other out in any way we can, we talk about anything and everything and I feel blessed to have such a wonderful lady in my life. I would not intentionally do anything to jeopordize this "relationship". But being a male, I am certain there will be times when I say or do something "stupid" which will try her patience. I only hope that she is understanding enough to forgive my "inconsideration" and that we may enjoy the rest of our natural lives in each other's company. Thanks justcueit for helping to define what I already knew in my heart.

can this relationship make it??? Posted: 10/14/2007 11:16:28 PM
I guess you have both adopted the "my way or the highway (literally)" attitude. So much for open discussion, comunication and compromise. Let this one go and then you can each concentrate on finding someone more suited to your self-centered realities. OR!!!! Split the difference and meet halfway. 45 minutes is an acceptable drive time to work and close enough that you can each enjoy your former lives and still be with each other. JMHO

hiding profile/multiple dating? Posted: 10/14/2007 3:59:57 PM
I hid my profile a few months ago because after changing it to reflect that I was no longer looking and found a beautiful lady to whom and with whom I wanted to spend my time, I suddenly became "attractive" and my e-mail increased significantly. I was never into multiple dating and actually met this lady at one of the PoF functions. That completely eliminated the need of meeting people with no pics. I remain here for the forums, especially the poetry one.

Chocolate Posted: 10/14/2007 1:34:19 AM
I realize this question is predominantly for the women, but I'll give you my perspective. My G/F gave me a box of milk chocolate once as a gift. When I opened it, all the pieces had bites taken out of them. I asked her WTF!!! She said she tasted them and couldn' find a single one that she liked. Sometime later she gave me a box of Dark rasberry filled chocolates. The box was empty upon opening. I assume she finally found some she liked so, I'll have to say that at least one woman I know prefers the dark chocolate.

Have you thought of changing/changed your career drastically at an older age? Posted: 10/13/2007 4:21:25 PM
I waited till my children were old enough to not require a baby-sitter (12 and 13) and while working full time to support them, I went back to school and obtained a degree in Computer Science at the age of 41. Worked in that field for 5 years and retired. A year later, I started helping out a friend who was an operations manager. Just a couple of days every month. That led to part time, then full time, supervisor and now I own the company and am back to working once in awhile to help out if no one else is available. If nothing else, both my children have learned to finish their studies, but not to limit themselves to that field. Like their father, they follow their hearts and dreams. So, OP, go for it. At 52, I can honestly say that although I may have done some things in my life differently (hind sight being 20/20) I have absolutely no regrets. But hey...that's just me.

Thanks for clarifying, OP. In response to your question, the answer is "NO!!!" . I would not go off the deep end and start looking for people from your past to beat up on. I may, however, say a silent prayer and request my universal sister "Karma" pay them a visit and readjust the balance in the universe.

Men and their fists Posted: 10/13/2007 3:52:27 PM
I think the OP's question could be a little more clear. And from the response in message #2, the understanding is the same. So, I will attempt to respond as best I can. If my G/F, spouse told me about a childhood incident where they had been hurt either physically or emotionally, I would be as consoling as I could possible be after confirming that they had sought to assist in dealing with their trauma. If the person who had harmed her was still in her life (friend or relative) I would go out of my way to avoid confrontation with that person as well as the person themself. HOWEVER , If what you are asking me is would I defend my partner if confronted physically while walking along the street, ie...a mugging, I would try and protect her from harm to the best of my ability even if it meant great risk to myself. So, I guess, my response is reliant on whether I am present at the time of the incident or if something is being relayed to me months/years later and dependant on if there was anything I could do or could have done to prevent the harm from happening in the first place. If someone clarified the question, I could respond more clearly.

Can you be both sincere and shallow? Posted: 10/12/2007 4:18:35 PM
Yes you can be both. If you were a shallow person to start with and based your standards on your shallow beliefs and then stuck to your guns when it came to dating then you would be a very sincere shallow person. However, if you were just such a person, we would probably be reading about most of your dating disasters in the forums.

Is it possible? Posted: 10/11/2007 11:10:26 PM
I guess "anything" is possible!!! Personally, I don't miss anyone from my past. That is why they are in the past. I do, however, miss the lady I am with. Sometimes, just walking to the truck after an evening together, I miss her or at least the anticipation of her not being there. And I know why!! It is simply because there are no bad memories. It is difficult not to miss someone with whom you share only good memories. There are barely enough hours in the day to miss her smile and voice and laughter and eyes and the way she walks and talks. I don't have time to miss anyone else.

Single Catholics Posted: 10/1/2007 8:06:28 PM
I don't care what the Catholic church says or does. They are outdated and soooo out of touch with the world around them that I am surprised they are still around. I was born and raised staunch Catholic and left the church just as soon as I was able to think for myself. I will answer to God for my life and actions, but I WILL NOT answer to man or any organization that through its actions, or lack thereof, condon child molestation and literally financed Hitler"s march through Poland. The Bible teaches man to be happy and I intend to do just that. ...JMHO

Life's Fall Colors She came to him in the autumn of his life, When all of his heart was filled with strife; And showed him how beautiful the colors could be, If his eyes he’d leave open and allow them to see; He took her advice and for the very first time, Saw all the of the shades and nuances sublime; And amidst all the colors her face it did shine, And he knew he had seen an angel divine; But now he must face his greatest of fears, And proclaim his love- even if through tears; To tell her he loved her with all of his heart, And hitch that damn horse right behind the cart; He wanted to tell her – her love was the cure, For what ailed his poor heart – this was for sure; He knew that her feelings need not be the same, She’d seen too many colors and that was a shame.

Morning After A Day in the Life On the morn, they went for breakfast, He had a mission – to prove his love steadfast ; What an odd time for this word from his past, To creep to the forefront – it’s ugly shadow to cast ; But he vowed to stay the course, he would not fail her, He loved her too much to be a quitter, a bailor ; And the day would come in all of its glory, When she would crave his touch in the name of all thats holy ; And he would love her even more for it. It was time to go and check out the market, Stall after stall for some veggies to get ; She’d promised him a potage of leek – home made, He liked her cooking, it would not make his love fade ; A small tea shop – a pot and some leaves to procure, They did like their tea even if some tasted of manure ; And after some time the day finally passed, She would head home – car needed to be gassed ; He loved her so – his tears the acclaim for it.

Smokin = skinny Posted: 9/11/2007 6:03:33 PM
Weight gain and/or loss is based on a caloric intake to caloric burn ratio. If you intake more calories than what your body burns, you will gain weight and vice versa. Smoking has absolutely nothing to do with weight loss. It does , however, influence weight gain in that most people when they quit smoking tend to replace the smoking with eating. They do not, however, increase their caloric burn and subsequently gain weight. Healthy eating with some sort of regular excercise is always a good choice. While on the subject... dieting will not have a lasting effect. You must change your lifestyle. I lost 129 lbs and have kept it off for over 2 years and I ate everything (still do) including Tim Horton donuts. Moderation is the effective word. Have one donut once a week and not 6 evrytime you go past a Timmy's.

Overanalyzing and over-thinking things. Posted: 9/11/2007 7:13:55 AM
IMHO, I think that analysis and/or over analysing is not necessarily a bad thing. To some extent, we all do it. It only becomes problematic when doused with a healthy load of paranoia. We tend to compare "today" to things that have happened to us in the "past" and equate similar results. ie...He must be cheating on me because the last guy that said that to me was cheating on me. We won't even get into people who compare their lives with what they watch on TV in the soaps. One poster is definitely on the right track when they said that they should be asking more questions....BINGO. Communication is the key. Ask as many questions as need be for whatever subject is crystal clear in your mind and you won't have to over analyse bits of information to death and drive yourself crazy.

I waste my time to prove a point, I should have sat and smoked a joint. It would not make my point the clearer, But to my heart he’d be the dearer. There isn’t enough of the THC In this weed to let him be. So, I’m back to take a jab, Although what I really want to do is reach through the screen and smack him upside the head. Blood pressure soaring, almost engina, Took brawny's advice and grew a vagina.

I don't believe in them...I came here to meet real people and have done that. During that time, I did meet one "special rose" and she receives real flowers to this day. And anything and everything else my heart can give her. ood luck to all in your enfeavors.

Yes, I connected with what the OP wrote. The first thing I thought after I read it was "I'm glad I'm not him!". It enlightened me to the fact that the OP is a self-cenetered materialistcly oriented a**hole. Did I like it?...No Is it art?... I don't really know. Some may think of it as art (obviously not you) Does it make the world a brighter place?... Well, when the sun strikes those "rocks" on the rings and watches just right, the brightness is almost blinding (pathetic attempt at humour) Did I respond to it upon reading it?...no, because I read all the threads and found your post judgemental and chose to respond to it (along with others). I may, to some degree , agree with some of the comments you made, however, it is not for you to decide what I think should or shouldn't be art. That is all I was trying to point out. You commented that you didn't like it. Fine. You are entitled to your opinion. No one asked you to judge it. There is in these threads what would barely be classified as proper English (whatever that may be) let alone poetry, but my only options are "do I like it or do I not like it". The quality is not for me to judge. This is an open forum and all posters are encouraged to allow their hearts to speak freely...rules and regulation be damned. You seem to be a conformist in that you would follow accepted rules when writing poetry. I, on the otherhand, like to think of myself as a free spirit without rules and only my soul to guide my writes. Does that make your poetry less likeable or mine better. NO, it does not. It only makes it different. Renoir was told by his master to stop painting as he would never be as good as Monet. Where would your "art" world be today had he listened?

WHERE IS THE REVELATION HERE? WHAT AM I LEARNING? HOW IS IT MAKING MY LIFE A DEEPER, RICHER, MORE BEAUTIFUL PLACE? There is no revelation here for you, no learning. Your mind is closed to these phenomenon. I seek beauty, revelation, truth, color, shape, form, etc. as well. Seek whatever you want, just don't go trying to shove it down my throat as if your idea of beauty, revelation, truth, color, form etc are the only acceptable varieties of the aforementioned.
