Tunes for working out at the gym....
Posted: 7/5/2009 7:27:27 AM
I am in desperate need of tunes for my MP3 player when I work out. Is there anywhere online or any way I could burn the songs from my CD's to my MP3 player? I am trying to do this on the cheap side......lol

I've heard of limewire..... downloaded it but cannot use it for some reason or the other...... maybe it's a good thing since I have also been told it comes with tons of viruses?

Any suggestions or how-to's would rock.

Thanks!

How often do you visit the gym?
Posted: 7/5/2009 7:23:20 AM
4 days a week for an hour but this coming up week I am planning to step up my game and go 6 days a week for 2 hours and set aside an hour to work out at home with the excercise ball or some variation of Turbo Jam/Taebo since we're limited on the kind of equipments we do have. (small town rural area gym... not all that up to date on the machines).

I LURVE the ROM machine though!!!!! (Kinda like rowing but it's much more intense.....)

divorced women and long term relationships??
Posted: 7/4/2009 8:29:34 AM
Personally as for me, I do not want to get married again. Being single has made me reflect back on my former marriage and I realized that I was being held back from being "Me".

I enjoy my freedom, my independence and the ability to not have to answer to anyone regarding anything I do. Yes I do have children and they come first and foremost above anything else I may do. Even if I were to find somebody to date long term wise, I would expect that my partner would also have the same mindset as I do -- simply because I do not want either of us to feel smothered or suffocated.

Unfortuantely the men who are seeking something serious are not looking for that. They expressed they want to be with their woman 24/7 and to me that just turns me off completely because it signifies to me that they are needy and clingy. Those two traits (neediness and clinginess) are something I am not looking for in someone.

I prefer someone with confidence and someone who's independent and understands that I do not want to be morphed into a "one unit couple". I want maintain my own identity when I am with someone. I need to be able to breathe, I do not want to feel suffocated or smothered in a relationship. I need my own space and not alot of people understand that. I suppose when you have been burned and through alot of bad relationships, you learn from them and in the future you remember those little lessons you learned and do everything you can NOT to repeat them.

There's been more of a surge of empowered, independent woman as of late and I applaud those women for taking charge of their own lives. Each of us has an idea of what we do/don't want in a partner and how much we want to invest into a relationship with someone else and it's perfectly ok.

You just need to find a woman who will be on the same page as you are. If she's not on the same page as you are, then keep fishing until you do find her.

As for me, I am just taking my time, I am not in a hurry at all. I am far too busy enjoying the life I do have now because when the time does come for me, I can look back and appreciate what I have done thus far and have no regrets.

Good luck OPie.

POF Date Night feature - Is It Working for You?
Posted: 6/22/2009 6:33:13 AM
Hrmmmmm I checked this feature out.

I think on one hand it can help generate interest and put those who are seeking to go out and mingle with others together.

It also lets you know which users are available or free on the scheduled day so that way you can narrow down your interests to the available party.

On the other hand:

It would feel as if you're desperate or on the chopping block so to speak. Plus if I am not interested in whomever asked me out, I cannot back out and say I have other plans or whatever. I would feel like a jerk.

So -- yet another feature I wouldn't use unless I was bored and wanted to experiment to see if anyone had the cajones to even bother..... LOL

Why do guys tell you one thing but lie about it
Posted: 6/3/2009 9:31:49 PM
Hmmmmmmmm -- as a woman's point of view and my .02 cents.....

I know you're only TALKING at this point but what if this was a real life scenario. Some food for thought, which I would be asking if this was a real situation which is happening.

Why on earth are you having unprotected sex in this day and age? Surely you DO know the risks of STD, etc. I don't think you should be running out and making a baby with a guy unless you've known him for like 10 years or something like that.

Are you doing it just to allow him to plant his seeds in you? What will YOU do if he decides he doesn't want to have babies anymore AND lo and behold should you end up pregnant? Are you ready for the responsiblity that comes with having a child? Are you ready to be faced with 18 years of wafering child support payments which may never come?

Has he expressed to you that he prefers to have sex bareback because condoms are a hassle which is why he prefers the whole "Let's make a baby" angle?

With these aforementioned questions I asked, I hope you will think more about this in depth and hopefully you will at some point get him to talk and meanwhile DO NOT be having sex until you get this situation resolved or at the very least -- have a talk with him before you do anything else.

One last words of advice: After you talk to him about this and you decide you want to have PROTECTED sex and he refuses to comply -- You need to drop him to the curb. I would venture to say you're smart enough to figure out why.

Finding out an update on an ex....
Posted: 5/19/2009 12:25:28 PM
Hrm..... I think you're jealous of the ongoing communication between your friend and your ex. You are also jumping into conclusion about *baby Benjamin* only makes an ass out of yourself until you have cold hard facts that she does have a baby.

In other words, you're allowing this fiasco to manifest in your mind and I've always been told: "Careful what you put in your mind, it might consume you!" IN this case, it's clearly eating at you.

You can do several things:

1. You can communciate with the ex and figure out what's up if you feel inclined to do so. Be warned for any backlashes as a result.

2. You can continue feeling this whole WTF about your friend and your ex communicating back and fourth all you want but a wee part of you is jealous that HE is talking to her and not you. Plus you gave him a green light.... this in some ways has your friend thinking "Well he gave me the go ahead, I am gonna do what I want."

If you have conveyed to your friend that you wished he'd never communicate with her or continue to communicate with her then he's not a true friend despite your plea.

Good luck!

how do girl feel about prenup
Posted: 4/1/2009 2:35:58 PM
With divorce on the rise, I think pre-nups AND MARRIAGE classes should be a mandatory thing before any officials pronounces anyone as a unit in holy matrimonial state. If either party disagrees to sign one then you know evidentily there will be problems that will arise down the road in your marriage.

Trying to covince her.... why is it so hard?
Posted: 4/1/2009 2:33:16 PM
Oy vey -- Me thinks the clue fairy potentially missed you last night.

It takes TWO to make a mutual attraction work -- if it's all one sided it will appear creepy or any other negative adjective you'd like to use.

I'd be running faster than a bullet can hit me in the back if I was the woman in your situation because it comes off as too *desperate and clingy.*

Simma down and relax...... don't strive to put all your eggs in one basket and go with the flow and realize that it's NOT the end of the world if a woman rejects you or does not have any attraction for you.

Gay wing men
Posted: 3/22/2009 12:26:48 PM
Hmmmmm *Wingman* or *Wingwomen* is just super juvenile. It's like being in grade school and asking your BFF to go talk to a guy you're interested in, blah blah blah.

I am more attracted to a confident man who knwos how to go after what he wants without having to use a *middle person*. They are the ones who would most likely end up with my number before the night is done and over with.

stealth profile viewing
Posted: 3/22/2009 12:21:15 PM
I am in stealth mode because I wanna be a online ninja when I grow up......

In all seriousness, the previous messages on reasons why..... are pretty much the same reasons why I do it. Should I be curious and click on a thumbnail since it's so tiny to look at the profile -- I might find out that there was something in his profile that would put the brakes on going further, etc. On top of that -- I wouldn't want that dude to think I am interested when I am CLEARLY not, thus meaning I wouldn't get a message from him and then there's nothing for me to worry about.

Not giving space!
Posted: 3/16/2009 4:39:34 PM
Well personally I do not like clingy folks and will cut them out of my life however I need to. Some folks DO like their SO's to cling to them like white on rice.......that is THEIR perogative.... not yours.

I am an advocate for couples to retain themselves as two seperate units instead of one whole freakin unit (which unfortuantely is a very common occurence anyways.....).

Let your friend do whatever he wants, if he wants to remain to someone like this -- then so be it. Keep inviting him out for a guys night out now and then so that way he doesn't feel like you left him high and dry. Eventually he'll see her for what she is..... but don't be the person to help him see that since that might have some affect on your friendship with him.

Is this considered being brushed off?
Posted: 2/7/2009 5:21:33 PM
I am gonna let you in on a BIG secret and hopefully you will use this wisdom in the future::

If a woman suddently ignores your messages, texts, calls...... whatever else can be used as a medium to communicate with.......

Either she's lost interest or found a new fishy she liked or found something about YOU that just made her go "Oh hell no!" in her head and thereby writing you off as a potential.

Then again there's some that just wants a free meal, company and all that grandiose jazz.

Chalk it up to being ignored and just move on, life is WAYYYYYYYYYY too short to be sitting complentating such matters. Shall you run into the same situation again in the future, just shrug your shoulders and move on.

Womens views on introverts
Posted: 2/6/2009 7:40:36 PM
I married an introvert and my experiences with him have taught me that I do not deal well with introverted folks. I need someone who's extroverted like me.

AN introvert is like pulling teeth for someone who's an extrovert to do stuff. I will admit that I felt like I was suffocated MANY times due to the fact that my ex wanted to stay home and not do anything. It wrecked hovac on me and I certainly was just in a total state of misery. I'd not venture there again.

With that said, I tend to gravitate towards men who exhibit alot of extorvertiness..... to me it's sexy and shows he's confident and comfortable in a social setting.

Why is starting over so hard
Posted: 1/27/2009 8:58:41 AM
Negativity begots negativity.

Try to be positive for a change!

I would recommend you grow a pair of cajones and get started on trying to get situated first before you throw someone else into the mix. The more established you are, the better your chances in this ever so competitive dating world. I think I speak for most women when I say that we'd prefer to be with a man who's focused, driven, confient, stable and a go getter. The opposite of any of the aforementioend words would just send them running.

In my opinion, if you're jobless but yet have an hour to waste on POF then that's an hour you could have been actively out there looking for a job and possibly gained an interview along with a potential job offer.

Keep in mind, there's only so many daylight hours in the day. Use them wisely.

Is depression reason enough to not form a relationship?
Posted: 1/27/2009 4:18:13 AM
Personally speaking -- sometimes depressed folks reach out for whatever is *available* and cling onto dear life for it. I think that those whom are depressed need to spend more time overcoming their depression before they get involved with someone new. I find that alot of depressed people look for *someone to rescuse* them which is totally NOT fair to the people in your life.

That said, no I would not date a depressed man. I was married to one whom refused to seek help, explore treatment options and refused to go to therapy despite my constant pleading and begging. In the end, I told him to take a hike and he's STILL living a *depressed* life and has yet to go to therapy unfortuantely. I cannot be dragged down to the depths like I had been dragged down with him. Life is way too short to be living this way and honestly there's HELP out there, you just have to want it bad enough to FIND it.

Can't help those who are not willing to help themselves first.

hrmmm......

invasion of privacy

possessiveness
and expecting him to be WHO you want HIM to be........

...... it does sound as if you do need to grow up a little bit.

I'd venture to say you can pretty much write him off becasue I highly doubt he'll come back to you -- if he does then I am wondering what the hell is wrong with HIM.

surgery now or later?
Posted: 1/24/2009 6:20:33 AM
Hrm ---

Opie -- I think it's great that you're trying to look at the bigger picture BUT however when it comes to the medical portion of your life, you should totally LISTEN to it. You're trying to plan surgery over something that MAY or MAY NOT even happen. What if you're 40 years old and still single and haven't had an opportunity to have children..... your bum knee isn't going to help right?

If I were you -- I would worry about the HERE and NOW as opposed to looking off at all of the tomorrows and trying to plans things for the tomorrows that have yet to come........ you're totally missing on the here and now.

Get the surgery ASAP and if and when you do finally meet the right person........ you can both work things out in that regard. Being a dad does not mean you have to be fully functional physically, you can still do things with them even if there's limitations. Try to think of it that way instead of some kind of hinderance.

Good luck on the surgery and hope you'll be back on your feet in no time.

I love animals so yes it is a deal breaker for me. IF a man does not like animals just *because* then I'd be akin to think that he also does not like children. Both which are dealbreakers for me since I have children and a pupper wupper.

Sorry to say this but trying to apply something you read from a book to real - life with no certainities..... is kinda... absurd. While it is nice to have standards but you've manifested your own standards on a very difficult level and it's going to be a difficult journey for you while you search for what you *think* is out there.

Gym Etiquette
Posted: 1/20/2009 4:22:31 AM
Since the gym here is SO small and the town only populates around 4K folks, everyone pretty much knows everyone here. Should I be hit on by some random local here, I'd be extremely pissed because I am not there to be hit on by a hot sweaty dude, I am there to WORK OUT.

If a man wants to hit on me, he can do it while I am running errands or bump into me at the regular places I am normally seen at around town. Other than that the gym is off limits.

dopey photos = shooting self in foot?
Posted: 1/17/2009 8:59:19 PM
I find that I gravitate towards goofy, fun, comical pictures rather than the serious, gymrat, arms around another woman, toothpaste splattered, half naked... kinda photos.

Personally I think those who post goofy pictures are the ones who knows how to relax and have fun when the time is right. I wouldn't want to be with someone who was SO uptight all the time.

That said, look at Adam Sandler. His personality shines though his pictures. That's what I am looking for...... one who's personality is captured via picture however goofy it might appear to be.

The L word
Posted: 1/17/2009 8:41:00 PM
I once dated a guy who said the L word WAYYYYYYYYYYY too soon and it sent me running for the hills. Once I stopped responding to his texts, emails and IM's it got even worse because he would blow up my cell phone with a gazillion messages trying to figure out what sent me running when the answer is pretty obvious.

Personally if a woman doesn't say it back -- she's no where near the same page as you are OR she could just be flustered and cannot muster up enough courage to say it back. The key here is to have a *TALK* with her and figure out where you both are at. Be prepared for any unforseen outcomes (IE:: her not being on the same page as you are, etc.)

However, I do think that too many folks do toss around the L word too often and early as well. I personally wouldn't ever say it unless I really meant it. This is pretty much akin to Mean what you say, say what you mean kinda deal.

I realize that if she's not on the same page as you are and you have already said the L word to her, you're going to be hurt for a while but that's all part of relationships and life in general so to speak. You'll bounce back and find someone new who will make you want to utter the L word again.

Talk to her, find out where you both are at. Communication is essential in any relationship.

Why do all girls do this?
Posted: 1/17/2009 8:31:08 PM
These things happen regardless of whatever occured before the intinal meeting.

She could have developed cold feet or lost interest or probably something did happen to her or maybe she found a new interest.

I wouldn't be sitting around trying to analyze things, instead I would be going on doing what I normally do. Life's too short to be over analyzing everything.

If she was really interested in you, she will come around, meanwhile do your own thing and have fun in the process. Don't hedge all your bets in one place if ya get my drift.

Why does she have pictures of us after the breakup?
Posted: 1/17/2009 8:26:55 PM
I know of some women who still have digital pictures of their ex. Some of the reasons could be because:

A. They can print the picture out and use it horn in on their dart throwing skills.

B. They looked good in it despite the break up.

C. Maybe they are just collecting ex's.

Who knows the real reason, you should communicate with her and find out.

Personally, I would just let it roll off of your back and move on.

I'm a musician and I fell for a deaf girl...
Posted: 1/16/2009 4:33:39 AM
Hi OPie!

I am deaf and a cochlear implant *wearer*. I think that it is awesome that you're wiling to learn her language to overcome communiation barriers.

Keep in mind just because she cannot *hear* the music does not mean she cannot appreciate it. Take me for example..... prior to my unfortunate accident which left me deaf..... I enjoyed a whole genure of different music than I listen to now, while waiting to get my *ears fixed*, I learned how to appreciate music through alterior methods.

I highly recommend alot of bass tones if you want her to be able to pick up certain parts of your composition. Blow up a balloon for her, have her hold it and play your music, she may just enjoy the beats. Try this experiment on you own playing different genres of music from country to rap and you will feel the difference in vibrations. I personally am not a fan of country it all feels the same. Try it! You'll see what I am talking about!

There's tons of other ways to *hear* music. Haven't you seen August Rush? Of course the boy can *hear* music but the key element is he heard it in his own way that it was SO beautiful to him. The same can be applied for a person who possesses no hearing.

Just bear in mind, just because one is hearing impaired, does not limit them from doing anything....... it just means they are ABLE to find ways around their hearing loss.

Also -- keep in mind, the old adage, if one looses an impotant sense, they gain/develop another one.

PS:: all the remarks about *YELLING* at a deaf person..... is truly pathetic. There's so much more you could learn if you were not too busy trying to be an undereducated fool yelling at a deaf person. It's not going to automate them to hear any better by your yelling so quit being a tool and act like a normal decent human being. ;)

Should i wait for him?
Posted: 1/12/2009 4:33:57 AM
Here's a short advice for you::

Life is actually too short to be waiting around for somebody. Never wait for anybody if you are just an OPTION and not a PRIORITY. When he makes you his priority then you can consider the long term arrangements or consider if he's worthy of waiting for.

Give him some space and do not invade it in the meantime, find something to do to fill up your time away from him, etc and if you both are TRULY meant to be together -- somehow, someway it will happen but trying to FORCE it to happen is only hindering and prolonging things than they need to be and sometimes will force them right into a very hazy territory (IE:: break up, etc).

Good luck and remember, LIFE is too short.....have fun while you can -- nobody is guaranteed that the sun will rise tomorrow.

What does Down to Earth mean?
Posted: 1/12/2009 4:28:48 AM
Personally I think Down to Earth folks are pretty *real*. None of that take pretentious bullcrap aura around them. :)

A previous poster had the definition nailed down to a T.

how far would you travel to see him?
Posted: 1/11/2009 8:50:18 PM
I personally wouldn't travel but maybe 30 miles maximum. I have learend my lesson via traveling such great distances in the past therefore I have restricted myself to 30 miles max. I have had one guy told me he would pay for my gas to DRIVE 5 hours to come see him and I declined his offer. I figured if anybody really wanted to see me, they'd drive to see me.

Why are my feelings out of whack?
Posted: 1/10/2009 8:39:45 PM
^^^ I noticed that too and was like uhm.........

Opie -- I am sorry for your loss but I do think you need time to heal and deal with this. You need much more than 3 months. I think that once you've grieved the loss of him and have come to terms with it, then you'd be ready to explore dating again. Right now it's just too soon to attempt.

Good luck!

Women bragging like men, do they?
Posted: 1/10/2009 8:35:13 PM
I only brag about my awesome frugal thrift store scores, finds, etc........or hell the killer deals I've found online for my coveted items.

I certainly do not brag about my dates or men I date, etc.... kinda moot point and I am certainly not the kiss and tell kinda lady either. Some are, some aren't - end of story.

Am I the only one whom thinks that such a word like *hickish* is something that Larry the Cable guy would utter?

What should I do, am I being set up??
Posted: 1/8/2009 7:03:45 AM
Sleeping with the enemy comes to mind. I would be cautious and think yea my ex was up to something especially if my ex KNOWS that person.

I wouldn't do it, smells like a motive somewhere in there.

Do you believe that there are some Good Men left ?
Posted: 1/5/2009 8:13:20 PM
Certainly there's somebody for everybody. :)

All this stuff about good or bad..... if you harp on the bad then you've lost hope along the way and need to find it again in order to find a good person. No one likes a Negative McParknegerson or a Debbie Downer. Shine from within and be patient....... remember good things come to those who wait.
