Pros and Cons of Friends With Benefits

I agree wholeheartedly with all that you said...
And to quote Sammy Hagar from his VanHagar days...
I've been out there
Tried a little bit of everything
But it's all sex without love
I found the real thing is poundcake
And we all know that poundcake is the best thing!

Misquoted Song Lyrics!
Posted:
1/5/2009 8:31:52 PM
Whitney Houston's: "I wanna Dance With Somebody"...
She say's "...I'm askin' you 'cause you know about these things"
but I would swear she says, "...I'm askin' you, do you know why my feet stink?"
Rolling Stones' "Jumpin Jack Flash"... I still don't know what Mick's saying... He was raised by a "toothless bearded hag"? Huh?
Another Stones: "Sympathy For the Devil"
"So if you meet me, have some courtesy, have some sympathy, and some taste.
You'll all well learn the policy
, or I'll lay your soul to waste"
It's actually...
"So if you meet me have some courtesy, have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned
politesse

What's Your Southern Sign?
Posted:
1/5/2009 8:18:56 PM
COLLARDS (June 22 - July 23): Collards have a genius for communication. They love to get in the melting pot of life and share their essence with the essence of those around them. Collards make good social workers, psychologists, and baseball
managers. As far as your personal life goes, if you are Collards, stay away from Crawfish. It just won't work. Save yourself a lot of heartache.
Apparently I am Collards... What's up with that? I wanna be a Butter Bean!!! I was conceived in November... So that qualifies me as a Butter Bean! Ha!

^^^ See! That's what I'm talking about! Isn't that more fun?!?!? ^^^
I actually do agree with the OP on the first glance attraction thing. I have found over the years, however, that what looks good
to
me is not always good
for
me, so I do try to explore some more. I remember actress Sharon Stone went after country singer Dwight Yokam because he was (in her estimation) "hot", but later reported he was about as interesting as "a dirt sandwich." You've got to hate that type of situation.
I believe judgement gets a bad rap these days. Judgement is a form of
discernment
, and you must discern for yourself, through your own filter, whether or not someone is a match for you on many different levels. So judgement is necessary and does not make you a "bad person". Passing sentence on that person is where you become the jerk. (My buddy Templekeeper taught me that)
Sending a "No thank you" e-mail is not passing sentence. It's much more polite than read/deleted.
By the way PK...
Thinga is actually a handsome man, from tip of his full head of hair down to his squeaky clean toes. He also has gonads, along with a heart in his chest as big as his head, and a brain that most people cannot keep up with. He
really doesn't need
to put up a picture... He meets who he
wants
to meet and doesn't cast a wide net hoping to catch 1 out of 1000 fish.

"Marley and Me" ~ Ummm... More Hollywood human elements than the book of course. The book was mostly about the dog. The movie was mostly about the people
and
the dog. I won't spoil it if you've not seen it, but I give it an "okay".
* I haven't cried that much at a damn movie since "Schlindler's List"
"The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" ~
Not simply because you get to see Brad Pitt on the vintage motor scooter....
... it was an
absolutely fabulous
movie and is worth the ten-spot it costs to see it on the big screen. Well acted, well casted, well made.

Cogie...
I have had the same kind of crap. At one point I thought James Rockford had jumped up out of the grave and sent me an e-mail... A very kind, very complimentary, very damn wordy e-mail. Then when I sent the "No thank you" e-mail in return I was lambasted in a flaming e-mail that I chose to ignore.
There is good news! You do not
have
to endure anything. You are free to
block the user
from contacting you. It will probably happen again while you're on here.
As to your ending question...
what is up with the Jekyl and Hyde syndrome??? ....why do people stoop to childish levels instead of just moving along to someone else???? Is it because you feel rejected or just a matter of getting your pride hurt ???
That is a question you will drive yourself crazy trying to answer, because you cannot possibly know another's motives for acting/reacting in any certain way. You'll need to get a bit thicker skin.
Remember, *"If you're offendable then you are expendable."
*Not my original quote, I credit a fine gentleman in Dahlonega with that one!

Responding To Someone Who Is In Denial
Posted:
12/30/2008 7:38:34 AM
Hi Tink. Long time no see.
When you say, "She chooses not to see it" does that infer that she is aware of it? Or she is blithely unaware of it?
Yours is a difficult position because you want what is the healthiest for her, but you know it is the most painful. I understand as I have been on the rollercoaster of my parents of now 29 years divorcing-not divorcing-divorcing-not divorcing for 1-1/2 years now. I just got off that ride and, as I was warned,
I
am the bad guy now for trying to lend support to my Dad. It seems that all I did was become a safe repository for the anger they have towards each other but are afraid to express or do not know how to deal with.
I have a dear friend who knows his wife is out trolling and even saw a page of her journal (that she
left out
) saying she's in love with so-and-so. But their kids are 8 & 14 and it's a touchy situation because they are each a product of messily-divorced families, and do not want to raise their kids the same way. She is financially dependent on him, and he is safely ensconced in a comfortable ditch called home and the thought of changing that is even worse than of her cheating on him.
But it's still a damn ditch, I try to tell him. He is getting emotionally stronger each day, and is making a healthy exit strategy. They will live officially as roommates (they've been unofficially roommates for a long time though) while they separate the banking and they explain what's going on to the kids and help them adjust incrementally.
All I do now is
listen
. That wasn't always the case though. I was furious when he called me and told me he had evidence of her trolling. I am not in their home though, I don't see both sides. And I know there are two sides, and I am friends with both of them. I kind of let her have it one evening, gently, and questioned her ability to live to good purpose while she was being so reckless. It seems to have worked because they finally
talked
to each other the next day and made a first draft plan to end it.
Thing is, he has
told
me the best thing I can do is listen. I can provide a female/outsider's opinion, but since he's the best male friend I have I am biased. He knows I'll support his decisions either way and feels no pressure when he talks to me to make some decision that
I
think is the best one.
I am a safe sounding board, and he is grateful to have one. I try to reinforce his growing self-worth, let him know he's not alone and let him come to his own conclusions. I know that's really all I can do.
If you can get anything out of all that...

Good Height to Weight ratio!
Posted:
12/29/2008 11:46:49 AM
If someone uses, "average", what does that mean?
For me it means I'm a size 12. One chin, big hooters, a visible waist line, and not born on an ass farm. My arms and thighs don't jiggle, much.
However, from your own description...
lift 100 pounds over my head and can do a 25 mile trip on a bicycle in a day. I can hike more than 5 miles in the woods on rough terrain. I ski, and I play softball.
I am apparently athletic, except I don't play softball. Frisbee, yes. Softball, no.
Athletic to me means an athlete... Michael Phelps is an athlete. Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh - both athletes. I'm average, (unless "Indian leg wrestling" becomes a sport. That's another story.)

Looking for......Creamy Peanut Butter balls dipped in choc
Posted:
12/28/2008 8:33:49 PM
I've known them to be called "Buckeyes"
... and this is a recipe for those who prefer the unwaxed balls
1 1/2 cups peanut butter
1 cup butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 cups confectioners' sugar
4 cups semisweet chocolate chips
In a large bowl, mix together the peanut butter, butter, vanilla and confectioners' sugar. The dough will look dry. Roll into 1 inch balls and place on a waxed paper-lined cookie sheet.
Press a toothpick into the top of each ball (to be used later as the handle for dipping) and chill in freezer until firm, about 30 minutes.
Melt chocolate chips in a double boiler or in a bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water. Stir frequently until smooth.
Dip frozen peanut butter balls in chocolate holding onto the toothpick. Leave a small portion of peanut butter showing at the top to make them look like Buckeyes. Put back on the cookie sheet and refrigerate until serving.

I'm thinking of all you people in the Georgia Pond (including the honorary Georgian Psssst...), and hoping you have a very Merry Christmas and an excellent holiday season.
I'm thinking that I cannot wait to get up to the farm for Christmas! Horses and goats and chickens! Oh my!
Chores...
Still have to pack & wrap a couple more presents.
Celebrations...

The Reel Deal ~ Recent Movies ~ Picks & Pans...
Posted:
12/23/2008 10:35:15 AM
Ahhhh.... The joys of unemployment with Pay Per View!
I just watched the chick-flick "The Women" and I say...
Guys and women who don't have female friends will not get it, so don't even waste your time or money.
But if you're a woman and you've got friend-girls I recommend it. There's just one overwhelming-biotchy moment (when they're all talking over each other at one time), but it's certainly worth watching. Bette Midler & Candice Bergen have great, very befitting roles, and the movie is very well casted in my opinion.

Oh ~ and another I watched is (I can't believe I'm putting this on the

I fast forwarded through the singing and really enjoyed the scenery, the performances of Colin Firth, Meryl Streep & Christine Baranski, and gawking at the guys, I just couldn't take Pierce Brosnan (a.k.a. Thomas Crown) singing!

The 401(K) Dilemma (LATimes News Article)
Posted:
12/22/2008 7:33:25 PM
I agree with GenX & the Frog on the Roth there Sneaks (and it's only too late if you're NOT breathing. Saving money takes that awfully dirty word... d-i-c-i-p-l-i-n-e... Like I've said - keep track of every penny for 30 days and assess what your spending habits are, then cut out the pork!)
I won't however, do another 100% company stock 401k like I did at the big orange box ever again. Discounted stock is good, as long as the stock is going up and splitting. Once that ride is over it's just a nail biter for the employees as it is for everyone else.

Drug or Alcohol stuff - how long ago is ok?
Posted:
12/19/2008 2:16:45 PM
I have steered clear of substance abusers, and drunk drivers, all my life. I could use some perspective from forum readers as to whether a drug history, well in the past, should be forgiven or not. Is it an ongoing personality flaw? (such as, an addictive personality?) ...
- the issue is, can a middle-aged person be free of substance abuse problems that occurred long ago, or not?
You, OP, seem to have already made up your mind about the issue using the your discernment through your own personal safety filter, (given that you question whether or not you can
forgive
a potential date's past). I would highly encourage you to
continue to steer clear
of any former or current substance abusers for both your and the potential date's sake.
Ongoing personality flaw? It's alcohol-
ism
not alcohol-
wasm
(or fill in your favorite addiction) so I would say yes ~ it's a lifelong process, either death by it or recovery from it.
But can the person who is "free of substance abuse problems that occured long ago" live to good purpose and contribute to society? I'd say yes. Are they any good at relationships? Not usually. But it can be great ~ if the rocks in your head fit the holes in theirs, and you don't both go crazy at the same time.
Cheers ~ (as my Sudburian friend says)

Please woman - consider yourself lucky to have met someone who knows the "up like a rocket, down like a rocket" principle! This guy seems to be looking for a relationship and not some chick whose pants fall down when he pats her on the head! You have to know what you want as well or you won't be able to hang onto this guy if you do "win him over."
Just be yourself, appreciate his honesty and reciprocate with yours and remember time is your greatest ally ~ he wants to get to know you better. I think that's fabulous!

boat cruises
Posted:
12/15/2008 10:08:28 AM
Go & have fun and hope the ship has a sonic blast horn to be used if needed! Try CruiseCritic.com and see if anything's been reported. If it's an American resigtered boat then check with the State Department website to see if anything's been reported in the area you're planning to go to; or check with the destination's similar governmental office. You should also know that maritime offenses and land offenses are not always handled the same way, and some offenses are left to be dealt with by the cruise line and not the courts as you may be used to.

Going on a vacation by yourself? Good or Bad idea?
Posted:
12/15/2008 9:55:16 AM
I think it's all about your mindset from the beginning. I have travelled alone and have no problem with it. I understand at the outset that I am going to explore a new place and experience new things, which is always exciting for me.
I wouldn't take myself to a "romantic" place though ~ a quiet hut on an island where all there is to do is make love and eat seafood is just setting yourself up for lonely.
I would take myself back to the Caribbean side of the Yucatan Peninsula in a heartbeat ~ like a previous poster wrote ~ just act like you know what you're doing and use common sense and you can have a great time!

I thought the fact that it is pretty quiet is part of the big draw to Montana!

wierd emails from old girlfriend

I will be honest I am single and having a women in my life would be the biggest present I could have
Seems to me you have the cart before the horse. Besides ~ are you still the same person you were in high school? (I am referring to what you want out of life, your accomplishments & goals, etc...) Because if you have broadened your horizons, and she's still looking through a tunnel you could end up with dead weight.
Or you could end up on Oprah with one of those fabulous "Long Lost Love" stories... Never can tell.
I don't think getting together for a meet & greet dinner would be a bad thing since there is some history there, but if she's married and looking for a knight in shining armor then you are better off saying your goodbyes and laying it to rest for once and for all.

Your choice

Definitely by chance. The most fun and favorable boyfriends I've ever had I have met by chance.
If I look back at my own track record it is blatantly obvious that my man-picker is defective!

First meet - Not interested
Posted:
12/12/2008 9:11:45 AM
I tend to agree with ^^^ Michelle ^^^ on the at least 2 dates. I try (and I do mean
try
in many cases) to go on at least 3, as many as 6 before I fully make up my mind.
I go in trying to be openminded about meeting someone new. I can usually get aong with anyone, and I think meeting people is a great experience. With that being said - if a person portrays themselves online in a certain fashion, I can usually tell fairly quickly if they are the person they portrayed themselves to be. If they are not, I try to be flexible and enjoy myself.
Bad behavior (inability to keep their hands to themselves, drunkenness, general disrespect) means no second date and can end the first one abruptly, but that's only happened twice in during my foray into online introductions.
Have fun, use your best judgement, and run like hell if they turn out to be wackos!

Dessert Test

As usual... my contempt prior to investigation led me to think this was a thread about, well, dessert recipies... look how wrong I can be...
CARROT CAKE- You are a very fun loving person, who likes to laugh. You are fun to be with. People like to hang out with you. You are a very warm hearted person and a little quirky at times. You have many loyal friends.
A "little quirky" my a$s... I'm crooked with quirks! And I do have many loyal friends!

Methinks this year I'd like Santa to bring me a line of work where I can contribute to my community, work with great people, be useful and be well paid!
Barring that, I'll take what she's having...
One really big box from Best Buy with:
The entire boxed set of DVDs of "Sex in the City"...
and all the Ken Burns DVDs...
and the whole "Band of Brothers" set of DVDs
and the box set by Pink Floyd, "Oh By The Way" as well...

Hottest Movie Scenes

As has been said - both 9-1/2 Weeks and the Thomas Crown Affair remake are terrifically sexy movies.
I quit reading after 3rd page so I will put in that you could nearly feel the chemistry between Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie in "Mr. & Mrs. Black".
First you try to kill each other and then have make up sex from THAT! WooHoo!

Do women actually rate images?
Posted:
12/10/2008 9:28:54 AM
It's much more fun to rate them in public, with a sharpie and 8-1/2 x 11 cards to write numbers on. Hold them up as they pass by, and after awhile the crowd gives their consensus as well.
As for net pics? Pffft... Why waste time if you can't see their reaction?
