I Don't Need A Man.., I very Independent..etc etc = RED Flags?
Posted:

^^^^I'm with you Annie. But like many women do, many men lump all women into one.
"One man can make one woman hate all men"
"One woman can make one man hate all women".
Fortunately or unfortunately for me, I've had other more important things to deal with in my life than let my dating life (or lack of) shape my day-to-day. Some people worry about having a pain-free day or perhaps a "cancer is getting better" day. The rejections and other issues seem to pale in those cases.....
I couldn't date someone who didn't have some kind of baggage. I'd feel like I had to live up to their perfection. Note that I try to keep my baggage "pink" instead of "black".

Guys know that you are independent anyway. Thats what we want.
Um yeah, I knew this years ago. I'm sure there is a reason why some women "shout" this out and it could be a myriad of reasons, but I'm no expert. But you gotta wonder why a man would continuously date women who are like that only to complain afterwards. Shrug. And it goes on LOL.

^^^c'mon Msmicki, you know as well as I do that most are clueless about STD's and most are running around NOT testing or even asking their partners about it.
I do have a clue as I have read several threads on STD's and sorry but if you've had sex with someone two months ago and then with a different person two months later?
And there are a ton of men who go on on women without asking a thing of them. Alot of us regular posters are pretty savvy, but the majority are not.
Condoms only provide "safer sex", not "safe sex".
You obviously missed the point of my post because some tests don't mean squat until you wait 6 months at least.
And yeah, we all know that a FWB can be soooooo reliable too. There are risks with everything, but condoms don't protect against many STD's.
first off......if you're going to rant......at least spell it right!
Hypocrisy!!
and isn't it being hypocritical to say your not judging......yet point out the hypcrisy of others?!!
hypcrisy
You really should ensure you spell everything right when you play that game.

Off topic here, but....
I too find it interesting that all these folks post about not being able to go more than 2 months or something like that.
If this is the case, there is alot of sleeping around going on and alot of STD's still being unknowingly spread.
I suppose these are the same folks who go on the STD threads and claim they ensure they get tested and practice safer sex. There are mean times for testing for certain STD's and 2 months ain't it.
I'm not judging anyone for sleeping around, but merely pointing out the hiprocrisy of some people on here.

It's the weather and dark colors that are to blame! If I lived in a warmer clime, I could wear my thigh highs all year, but since some of us don't, we can't. I think men should try out wearing thigh highs with a skirt at least once in the winter.....it ain't fun.

I don't say it purely because everyone always says it (it will however come out sometimes). I don't see the point either. It's like when make a noise does someone need to acknowledge it? Nope.
I don't think it is bad manners not to say it either. Some people sneeze too much and I tell them that I'm not saying it more than once! People have a chuckle when I say that so it seems more interesting that way.....

Is it Wrong to call a woman handsome?
Posted:
11/18/2009 3:02:11 PM
No matter what the real meaning is, but I think many women might take it the wrong way. Wait a few years, maybe it will become dope!
Some celebrity may decide to start using it, and WHAM! it'll be a good word.
I like striking actually - it's different. To me striking might be more of a compliment than beautiful!
For each person, a word can have different meanings.

after 40 it is really hard to find a date
Posted:

"You just need to just get out there" maybe if I look like a movie star or where rich or both that might work.
Most of the men I have seen on here look TONS better in person. One guy whom I met in person and was attracted to looked horrible on here, in fact even ugly.
You really have to be photogenic to do well on here. On here, I truly believe it is all based on looks. In person, it is different. And most people are not going to even give a chance to someone they think is "ugly". And this has happened to me. A guy asked for my pic, I sent it and he never replied back. That's what online dating is about.
Have you two ever joined a group other than a dating site that had face to face activities? Have you ever gone to a POF event? If you say no, then you have NOT "got out there". If you have, then I don't know what to say to you because things ain't gonna change.

Hello to a fellow south shorer BTW!
^^^yep, men will always want women more. Take a look at your typical clubs:
#1. Play good music to entice women into the bar. Or offer ladies entry free.
#2. Said good music and free drinks/entry brings women in, who bring the men in.
Simple. That's why online dating on some sites is free for women. If men didn't pursue women more, the formula would be different. Were men taught to do this or it is instinctual?
Like I and many men have said on here, maybe men should stop "pursuing" women. Would we change our MO and begin contacting men more? Maybe, but I still believe that changing who we essentially were taught to be is difficult to change for the majority.
It doesn't make me mad about your comment about asian women. In fact, I agree that north america is work obsessed and I think huge changes are needed in that area as it causes so much stress - and stress causes so many other things to go wrong. But as with many things, it's a long time coming.

And, there are very, very few women who do take the initiative, but they are probably in the 1/2 percentage. But, this thread is very discouraging.
And what can anyone really do about it? Unless each person takes their own initiative, anything anyone says really means nothing. Think about it, when people are trying to change you - do you listen? No, one must be ready for change in order to change. Unfortunately most of the women in the other half are probably out getting dates, and having no problem getting men to approach them and don't even read these posts LOL.
This is my problem with these posts. There isn't much you can do about it, so b*tching ain't gonna help. It's like if I were to complain about all men being pigs and only wanting sex. What would be the use of that? I'm not stupid, I know men (well most) like sex - I've moved on and just accepted it.
There is also a study that shows women are not living as long as they use to as they start to get into the same working world as men.
I can definitely believe that. Frankly, I think it sucks and I'm in no way interested in proving my worth at work by stressing myself out; but some women I work with do exactly that - they try to be superwoman and then the rest of us below them have to suffer because that same expectation is raised for us. Silly.
And to go back to what CW said about women being cold and unemotional. You will note that many men are leaning towards dating asian (or different cultures) women. I believe these women are not taught the same as north american women are to "toughen" up. BUT, many of these women expect men to pay for them. See?
I have had 2 dates, though, we saw each other twice, there were no sparks but I sure didn't blow them off, and I like to stay in touch. But almost all the other women that I took initiative with, with an email, I just get blown off 'unread, deleted' 'read, deleted'. I think the stereotype is very very real and I think the caveat-emptor that POF states, women get many many more emails per capita than men rings true. 'endeavour to persevere guys'
I didn't like the online thing either. So you know what I did? I joined an online group (not a dating group) that goes out and does things! I increased my contacts, not only for new friends around my age, but for possibly meeting men. I'm having alot of fun with it and would rather meet men through there than here.
Try the real world guys - it's much better than this online thing which only seems to pizz you guys off anyway!

^^^I've never believed the whole idea that men lack emotion and romance.
I'm not sure that it is only love and caring, it could be sex too (and this doesn't mean that this makes a man a bad person either!).
I wonder though whether women were cold like this 30 years ago? Could this be a backlash of those women teaching their daughters to be TOO tough?
It's difficult for women to find a balance and for men to figure it out. Simply put, it creates hurdles in dating which is unfortunate.

Texting while on a date
Posted:
11/18/2009 6:21:54 AM
Further almost half the women I've dated have received phone calls or texts while we were out. They all excuse it with: I'm a mother, my friend just wanted to check up on me, it was work, my mother has been ill, etc. etc.
More proof that it is not just a certain generation. As I've said, I have some friends in their 50's who have their phone on ALL the time and take calls from their 20 something kids about nonsense. It's annoying.
The only difference here is women are better liars than men, and since they are women, they should be excused!!
More drivel from bitter men. No one is excused from this behaviour. Why should anyone put up with that on a date?
As I said, I've yet to date someone who has NOT apologized when they do this. They know it's rude, yet they do it anyway, which leads me to believe they are weak.

This is just the nonsense put out in these forums. Everyone knows men have a harder time in the dating world. Men initiate contact, men ask the woman out, men pay or at least for the most part. The better looking women not only do extremely well on a dating site, but IRL they do better as well. How often have you seen an attractive woman pay for her own drinks in a bar or club. She just has to stand there and smile, not even in the direction of a guy but in the general direction!
Once again - WHO'S FAULT IS THAT? Not mine. I pursue men and encourage women to do the same. You want things to change? Start treating your daughters and sons differently. You think that will happen? It won't.
If you don't like it, change the way you do things! I didn't like the way things were going, so I CHANGED - I did not expect others to change for me. We all know it's harder for men, but again whining like a bebe la la is not going to change things and it sure as hell won't make me feel sorry for you.
As for not wanting a GF, why are you on here professing to look for dating with a pic up? Whatever.
The only reason women get more emails than men is because men want it more than women do. Plain and simple. Remember those studies about how when a male husband loses his wife, he dies fairly soon? Whereas in the opposite situation, the woman lives longer? I believe men need women more than women need men and that is even moreso today. There is nothing wrong with this and it does explain alot.

why do men always have to look at other women!!
Posted:
11/17/2009 3:58:20 PM
I once dated a guy who would actually turn to me and say "she's attractive eh?" or I would comment on clothes a woman was wearing and he would look at her. I didn't have a problem with it.
So we would admire good looking "items" (people, things etc.) together!
I guess it depends on the relationship and the two people involved.

How do you know what I've or anyone else has been through? I might be a cancer survivor, I might be someone living with chronic pain every day, I might be a victim of child abuse. You don't know, but whatever it is I've been through, I unlike you have had good and bad people in my life (male and female). The difference is, the good ones have made a bigger impression.
Never assume what another person has been through.
Truth is fine, but when it is mean and bitter, nobody wants to be around you. Ever think your attitude is what keeps women away? Believe me, I've had a bad attitude and I KNEW people didn't want to be around me. And if you are only counting your success on here, then no wonder - online dating is only successful for a few people. I think it is a dumb system too.
If you don't like the gravy train - one should stay off.

Men are not allowed to be selective, yet women are encouraged to be over-selective.
Why aren't men allowed to be selective? They have every right to be. Again, this is where I am saying that it is men who place themselves in this position, I sure could care less if a man stops approaching women because I approach men and prefer it that way.
Everyone who is single is called picky anyway, so who cares?!
And some men seem to want it more than women do, obviously because as a woman who contacts men first, I don't contact 100's; but the majority of men on here do. What does that say? I mean beyond the whole biology of it, why aren't women pursuing men? Aside from the fact that there, ahem, taught (back to traditional here) not to.
Unfortunately you are not going to get ALL women to change their approach, but whining about it isn't going to help. There are plenty of good posters on here who have explained things in a constructive way - funtimes, I actually think you are more positive than negative in your posts so I would tend to read and take something from yours, but not ones like the ones I was referring to.

^^^for us women who actually hit on men first, we can understand it now. Everyone wants to be wanted and desired - male or female.
Dating is always more difficult as you age because your network of contacts is smaller, plus most of us looked damn good in our 20's LOL.
Having no intertest from the oppsite sex for years and being rejected timt and time again is something a women will never understand because women can always fall back to the fact there are always more desperate man around willing to pay them attention.
Who's fault is that? You talk this sh*t like we are making YOU approach us. Things have changed - women don't "need" men like they did years ago - in large part due to how society has changed. We need them on a different level, but many men can't seem to get THAT into their head. Unfortunately many of us are still stuck in our parents way of thinking.
I changed my way of dating and thinking about men. And I keep learning more by coming on here and reading and trying to really listen to what men are saying (many men are effective at getting their point across without whining).
Like another poster on here said, negativity is poison.

A question about dominant men. Can they also be gentlemen?
Posted:
11/17/2009 10:00:54 AM
There's a complete misunderstanding of what an Alpha male is or should be. And alpha male does not necessarily equates with a bully. There are a lot of bullies that hide their insecurities and "beta" qualities behind their aggressive overpowering behavior.
Exactly.
Being dominant in the bedroom does not mean that you are unkind, dominating or abusive outside of the bedroom.

Hooked on having a FWB?
Posted:
11/17/2009 9:40:01 AM
I think one has to be a certain personality for this - whether you are a man or a woman and since I see more men wanting relationships than women, well the whole premise of men not easily committing kinda doesn't ring true with me.
I come from a family of commitment - all the men are committed. If there was any infidelity or leaving, it was from the woman's side. That said, all the women from our side of the family are committed too.
I do think that women ARE more emotional than men, but I don't think that means that men CAN'T be emotional or that women cannot be more sexual than a man.
Dunno. I don't get the FWB thing. I want it all!
I can't simply say "oh well I won't be like those thousands of people that do it that will show them!"
I don't give a quack if thousands are doing it. I'm not here to "show" anyone.

she keeps saying Im really sorry I feel so bad, Im not being rude she says..lol
Again, may I point out that she kept "saying sorry". If someone feels so bloody bad, get the fack up and go to the bathroom to deal with the calls. If someone who has no kids is doing this and keeps apologizing, why are they continuing to do it? The are simply "pretending" to be polite with their lame-azz sorry. People think that saying sorry, please, thank you is the only cornerstone of good manners. IT'S NOT. Manners are shown through your actions as well.
If something is going on that is so urgent with their kids, what are they doing out that night? Save the date for another night. Frankly, if there is a "bunch of stuff going on" with my daughter, I sure as hell wouldn't be on a date - I'd deal with the bunch of stuff first.

Accepting a man that's unemployed
Posted:
11/17/2009 5:46:08 AM
This is one of the reasons I refuse to discuss money period for at least six months to a year,
I think that's silly, there are some areas you may need to discuss. In fact, I think more people need to discuss their beliefs around this area.
I don't need to know figures, in fact I can't stand when a man brags about how much money he makes or how little he has. Just go on with your business. Even if you lost your job as an executive, the fact that you are out everyday seeking employment is a lot more impressive than sitting on your azz all day.
When me and my brothers lost our jobs when we were younger, we never sat around waiting, we got right back up looking for a job.
Besides, lots of these executive salaries? Even half of that is probably what I make a year!
Now, why aren't these exec guys out working doing something else while waiting for the good job to come back?
Sorry but money may not make the world go round, but it does support it and if you don't think that, then you are living in some fantasy world.
Dating costs money for both parties. If you can't afford it, then you should be dating in a different way. When I had money problems, I didn't go online looking for dates, I didn't think that any man would want to take on my debt or my money problems at the time.

What is sexy about FAT???
Posted:
11/17/2009 5:33:38 AM
I think that the whole open to sexuality thing may stem from the so called "hot" folks often having certain things come easy to them, which may include attention from suitors.
Frankly, the hot guy was the worst in bed. Unlike mr wonderful lover of short stature (I'm not that tall anyway) and more attractive and average looks (upon first meet), the hot guy was just not as into it.
I'm not convinced that women with extra pounds go the distance simply to be thought of as a keeper. I think that those that go the distance just know that sex is better when both sides are into it and that anything good needs to be worked at and can't be obtained by looks alone and I don't think that larger people have the only monopoly on this. There are plenty of average folks out there with the same mentality.

Without knowing someone well enough, I would not date someone unemployed. That said, if I was dating someone and they lost their job I would not bail. However, if they sat around not looking for work......
Some people are lazy and others just fall on bad luck.
I also don't need a man who has tons of security. If he does, cool, but if he had some hard times and wasn't able to do so and still has debt, I don't mind. We can build our security together.
What I can't stand are lazy people. I come from a family of hard workers. My family often didn't make alot of money, but they worked hard and were never out of a job long. It's something we learned growing up.
For the record, I have some friends who have gotten their husbands/boyfriends out of debt. But as usual on here, the negative people really like to pipe up so they can secure themselves good dates LOL.

How ridiculous. If someone is not confident enough to admit their real age, they are NOT the man for me.
Frankly, I laugh at people who do that. One guy did it to me and I dropped him like a hot potato.
its been my experience that men lie about their age because they want to date younger women.
It's stupid. If you look old to me, I don't want to date you. My body type and I are both younger looking. I seek someone similar. I get that in the real world, but not on here.

horror movies = red flag?
Posted:
11/15/2009 1:20:48 PM
I have seen all the blood and gore in real life that I want to see
To me real life has always been scarier than a horror movie. If a horror movie is too close to reality, it makes me cringe and I'm often speechless after watching a movie like that.
I was talking with some friends the other day about some young kids who are in the detention system and have now reached 18 and will now be sentenced as adults. Some were saying how TV, movies etc., glorify violence and encourage them to go out and commit crimes; while this may be true, I have always known that if I was ever to hit, cut or shoot someone like they do in the movies, the result is much more horrific than some movie portrays. I cannot understand how people can be guided by this. Even as a teen, I understood the difference. I think the community, the family history and the peers that young people hang out with have a larger influence on most.
That's not to say there are some kids who CAN be influenced; I'm just pointing out that it is NOT the culprit for many.
Suspending your disbelief is only for when you are watching these movies. Real life is still there waiting for you once you click "power".

being ignored

Folks, women ARE more emotional than men. Men are less so. We need to learn to accept that we are this way and figure out a way to move on.
Honestly. The biggest issues we have are to do with the differences between men and women (we are alike in many areas, but it's the differences that get us every time).
I don't mesh well with sensitive people. Who wants to walk around on egg shells? I expect someone to be able to be upset with me and voice their upset without turning cruel - I'm not perfect and I can do things to annoy people. I expect to be able to do the same. If people cannot argue to some extent I think a relationship is doomed. All the LTR I know of, the couples argue, but they do not argue cruel. And yes, waiting to collect your thoughts is always a good idea, but if something really bothers you - you HAVE to speak up.
Saying nothing is a big pain in the azz. Sure, some things one has to let go, but others will bother you and if you can't feel comfy enough to discuss it with your partner, I suggest getting a new partner. I went through something like that and it SUCKED, I don't know why anyone would want to be in a relationship where this happens.

Smarter ladies have worse sex
Posted:

Well, if one is having sex, one is less likely to be discussing it
If so, that's unfortunate because people should be talking to the one they are having sex with - about the sex they are having. Dunno, that was a big part of one relationship I had, we talked about all sorts of things and enjoyed talking AND doing!
I'm not sure about educated, but I like a man who is educated about sex in general. Still interested in learning more about sex and open to new things. A man could be the smartest dude in the world, yet never have researched a single thing about sexuality and be horrible in bed.
Note though that better educated people tend to like learning, so would that not mean that the educated ones are into learning about sex?

^^^^right back at you for butting in too!!! LOL. Your life is as boring as ours since you are commenting on it. Really CW, "Grow up". I'm not threatening them, I'm letting them know that it could happen. I have no power to ban them anyway.
You're just as silly with your comment above. Think about it.
Have a good day now.

Why don't you just frickin ask her? Tell you would like to take her out on a "date", but understand if she is serious about her BF.
Or just both get drunk and go dancing.
You may or may not lose her friendship. I don't have many male friends as I don't believe that most men and women can be close close friends. Unless one of them is butt ugly sex will always get in the way.

STD/Mutual Testing Questions
Posted:
11/13/2009 8:47:14 AM
^^^Church, many of us have tried to explain to camper about this, I have even outright asked him if he has ever had a loved one who had an STD or died of AIDS or even watched a loved one as they died. It's obvious he hasn't informed himself nor cares to. Frankly, I think people who do not inform themselves lack intelligence. But hey, maybe I'm the stupid one because I'm not "spontaneous" and am missing out on great experiences.
The thing is, most men I have met who have his same opinion have actually been the worst in bed too. They just aren't interested in sex in general or doing any research. The best partner I had was someone who was just as informed and open as I am.
But again, what do I know?

^^^do some research. Any one of those 3 guys you slept with could have slept with 20 other people who could have slept with 20 other people.
You are only as clean as your last test, and even then if you didn't do it properly it is not 100%.
Are kids really this uneducated today?

This is another of those posts that remind me that a partner staying in contact with an Ex is so often not good....
Totally agreed.
Wait around for this woman if you like, but it's obvious she doesn't have YOU on her priority list. Do you want a partner like that?

Sensitive issues

let me reiterate: you meet a stranger, you have sex with stranger that day, you have issues.
Sooooo, all those people I know who had one night stands with their husbands when they first met all have issues too?
Please, not this sexist crap again.

Texting while on a date
Posted:
11/10/2009 12:32:24 PM
I don't expect childless women to understand so I choose not to date them. And for the record my son has never interrupted a date of mine and I have never answered my phone while on a date.
Obviously you raised your son right. But if you read my post not everyone has. Some adults have their adult children calling them constantly for stupidity and you know this is true.
Some children are way too attached to their parents for every little thing today. Things are getting better, but this is in part a huge backlash of the divorce and working women influx of the past decade or more.

Texting while on a date
Posted:
11/10/2009 9:43:37 AM
I will turn my phone on silent but I will check it every now and then when its appropriate.. why? My daughter has JRA and my phones stay by me and on all the time. She can have flair ups any time that will send her to the hospital. But in a date setting I turn my phone silent and enjoy the company that im with. When I was with my X Gf even after 5 years if we went out I put the phone on silent as well. If the other person is constantly on the phone texting it does bother me and I will say something, if they dont like it then they obvious dont like me.
Well said.
If I need to check my phone, I excuse myself and go to the bathroom. Since I do not have children, I have YET to ever do that. That said, there are some parents who will take "drama" calls from their children - I've some friends like that. Their kids are are not kids anymore, but still call them on their cells and the parents answer while we are out. It kinda bugs me. I know plenty of other women who have kids who don't receive calls from their kids and we sit there and have dinner without interruption. Like someone said, we grew up without cell phones - unless there is an emergency - WTF are you calling me for?!?!
The above poster's daughter does have a reason, yet he still leaves it on silent. See? Not so hard to be polite.
When kids call you answer or text, whatever it is that they need. Most single parents understand it and don't mind.
Sorry, but no if my kid was calling me with some lame azz stuff that can wait until I am back or the next day......Read what I wrote above. We all got through without cell phones back in the day. "Can I eat the last cookie?" is not a facking emergency. My kids would be taught that it is for emergencies only and I would have a special ring just for that.

For those who have children, it is entirely different. And you know what? Any man with children with whom I've been on a date with has actually used their phone less than a man without children.
One guy kept receiving calls from Mom, and had to keep checking in with his 17 year old nephew. Another guy made movie plans with his buddies.
Unfortunately, most of my dates have had cell phonitis - it is starting to make me think that all the men that are left are left for a reason, but deep down I know that's not true.
Guys - don't make us start thinking that......read these forums, LEARN.

IS IT TRUE THAT A WOMAN SHOULDN’T PURSUE A MAN?
Posted:
11/9/2009 5:31:15 PM
IF a lady is willing to make a first move now and again she expands her perspectives considerably on the numeric front. Not only that, she also expands her perspectives on the quality front since she has more say in the attributes on her mate.
Thank you for this.
It actually does improve on the quality front and I've enjoyed dating more by making first moves. Doing something proactive makes you feel good too!

Thank you for addressing my post ticklelicks, apology appreciated :)
Can you tell me why curvy women are so looked down on in general and NOT considered sexy by most?
TV and the media and some people who live in fantasy land. Honestly, I wanted to be Raquel Welch body type all my life. I KNOW that men prefer a woman like that. That kinda sucks that you only found this out since coming on here. I mean that type of info could really help out some people dealing with serious weight issues. Like you said, most men actually prefer an average and up in size woman. You wouldn't want to date most of the men that want to date me because I'm blond and thin - you know those old stereotypes!
So really,I wasn't trying to be derogatory,just simply dont' understand the Superiority Thin women seem to have gained in society and have heard from men that they DO like to feel more Dominant so they stick with smaller women.Oh...one even told me he loves thin women so his****felt bigger and he could see it jabbing out of her stomach while he f*cked her....who knows...Just asking.
See I don't feel that having thin women in society has given me any superiority - that's totally lost on me actually! As a small woman, having some guy wanting to see his c*ck jabbing my stomach would hurt. I'm not interested in dating a guy who wants to date me just to dominate me. I'm not at all a submissive type LOL. The only time I feel superior is when I am working out, strong and healthy and alot of that is based on how I FEEL, not how I look - the flat stomach is the bonus, not the goal for me (but that's another story)
Maybe I need to just realize that it's not necessarily my size that turns men on but the WHOLE of me. I like me--the person---I dislike the look of fat.
Yes. I would think there are men who do go for the "rolls", but there is more to women than just her size and I know that men back me up on this. The face, the smile that lights up the eyes, the "vibe" (you can't beat the vibe). I see so many women unsure of why men like us!
but it helps alot to know that the one I am with...likes me just as i am.
So true and I don't think that this means one is insecure. I think this is natural. We want our mate to "want us", no matter who we are.
Also, a basic understanding of why and where women gain weight can be lost on some people.

What do you make of this? Is this BPD?
Posted:
11/9/2009 1:36:10 PM
Who cares what he has? Doesn't sound like a keeper to me!
Sorry but I have no experience with BPD, but even if he doesn't what's the point of dating him if he can't budge on some important issues such as communication?
<div class='quote'>That is just a rule he lives by.
Anyone else see this red flag? "rule" uh huh. Sorry, this guy sounds too uptight.
Communication is VERY VERY important. But you can learn that over time if you wish.....
Of all the guys I had dated he was my top choice to start a real relationship, so when he wanted to see me again I was ecstatic!
Yes, ecstatic is how we all feel in the beginning of a relationship, but if you are having these issues already? Think about it.
