Taber Camp Out Pictures Posted: 6/29/2009 8:46:57 PM
Didn't have a camera, so no luck here. I noticed when reviewing the sign-up photos that I didn't recognize a large number of the people that I was hoping to email. Too bad. I was relying on it for follow-up with the people I connected with. Looking specifically for Mervin and the fishing lady. Others, please email me if you wish.

what do you think is tougher to dump or to be dumped Posted: 5/25/2009 11:52:38 AM
Definitely being dumped. If you're the dumper, you're already in touch with what's in your heart.

Can we talk about relationships without sex? I'm not talking ''a little'' sex I mean none. Possible? Posted: 5/14/2009 11:53:13 AM
defined the same way one would define friends or family You might as well be married to a brother. You'd take care of him and all, but if there's any type of chemistry at all, there would have to at the very least be an intimacy, or as others have stated, why bother?

can friends with benefits ever develop into something more? Posted: 5/14/2009 11:40:14 AM
This post is "so" depressing. Labelling a relationship because of something you are doing or did do is only accurate to a point. There are numerous factors to consider when deciding where the relationship is going or its potential. The ones that are putting down the opening poster are the ones that I trust she isn't compatible with, so be encouraged, but be honest, for truth will guide you well.

They say some of the best relationships start as friendships. Can you develop a chemistry? Maybe, but I doubt it just happens. There has to be a change of elements in the relationship. I'm guessing if you slept with him before there was chemistry, and there was no chemistry because of the sex, there's a realistic expectation that there simply is none.

Singles Over 35 Campout in Southeast Alberta June 26th! Posted: 5/11/2009 10:06:44 PM
dddiesel, I so appreciate your willingness to help with setup. I'm trying to sell my trailer before campout though and probably won't have it available. Maybe I could be okay with just a tent, and when I realize how much I hate it I can buy myself a shorter trailer for next time.

Singles Campout in Southeast Alberta Posted: 4/30/2009 7:51:41 PM
How are the ladies doing? I've got a 5th wheel which I bought with my ex, and now I'd like to come, but am a little antsy about travelling and setting up on my own. How helpful are the guys? Maybe if I was daring enough, I could trade male knowledge for the use of the facilities and sleeping rights on my couch? (the bed's mine). This might be a bit iffy, since I don't really know anyone yet, and I would want a bunk partner, not a bed partner.

Do I tell a family friend that our spouses have been having an affair right under our noses? Posted: 8/27/2008 11:01:41 PM
If you value your woman friend as a friend, you owe it to yourself to let her know why you became aggressive with your wife. She might decide to trust you again. Otherwise you truly are the bad guy in her eyes, and in the eyes of everyone she tells. Even though it will hurt, it'll create an alliance between the two of you, and you can find strength in each other. If both spouses know the truth, the two with extra-maritals will be forced to make a decision. It might not be the decision you want, but do you really want to play second fiddle in your wife's life?

My last boyfriend passed away sends them running... Posted: 8/23/2008 10:52:09 AM
Til death do us part? Sounds like you intend to have a real relationship, and they might have trouble with that. Most guys probably want to start off light. There are guys on here that state they're looking to be married. Good luck.

When a woman is so beautiful you can't approach her. Posted: 8/23/2008 9:04:08 AM
Maybe you have features that she thinks are beautiful, like your eyes for instance. A kind demeanour is hard to overlook. No doubt a good looking woman has her share of dates with good looking guys. You have to admit they have a lot going for them, having both a good dose of confidence and pride.

Found my guy on Hot or Not - not good Posted: 8/20/2008 10:27:54 PM
Wow. I find it interesting that you gave him the door out instead of fighting for him. I can see how you wouldn't want to keep contacting him, but maybe your friend should tell him she's your friend and you know about his ventures. That would get his attention.

HELP HELP HELP! Posted: 8/19/2008 6:32:59 PM
ADVICE HERE: Despite all the lecturing, I'd like to simply give you advice. Take the steps you need to overcome your drinking, and find support from those willing to be there for you. If your bf wants to make it work, he'll get over it. If you keep begging for forgiveness, you keep refreshing his memory. You should just forgive yourself. You both did wrong that night, not just you, and apparently you've forgiven him even though you have the bigger debt to pay. Maybe it isn't an issue of forgiveness. It might be decision time in whether the relationship is working or not. I commend you on choosing to be designated driver that night. THAT was really responsible until you drank too.

If your still hurting for your ex in anyway don't bother me Posted: 8/17/2008 1:17:11 PM
All I can say is when you reach for a new relationship and you haven't healed from your last one, you bring a lot of garbage into the new one. We tend to treat the new person with the same attitudes we had towards our last partner - if we haven't healed of the hurts. This can be really unfair, and she might not feel she's strong enough to carry someone else through their healing process. I hope you can give her the grace she needs to just reach for people strong enough to carry "her". I wish both of you well.

Can being TOO good be a turnoff/deterrent? Posted: 8/13/2008 9:21:48 PM
Yes. If you're too good you lack excitement. By that I mean being syrupy polite, watching your p's and q's, never raising your voice or getting angry, going back to a store to return a dime...absolute snoozeville. If you like animals, being around them should be "fun", and it's obviously an interest, so properly fits your profile.

Same gender contact not always for dating Posted: 8/13/2008 11:51:27 AM
It's under mail options and reads: "Block users from making first contact that have messaged others for sex or intimate encounters". Okay so I read it wrong. Anyway how could you even know if they did?

No. I believe there's a box you can check when you're doing a search that will eliminate anyone that has made contact with someone of the same sex.

I need some help or advice please!!!!!!!!!!!! Posted: 8/12/2008 11:51:25 AM
Sounds like you could be friends, if you could get over wanting more. He's been really thoughtful in holding onto the friendship and being honest about it not being anything more, and he seems to be there for you as a friend when you need him. I agree about the power struggling part. It creates a hard relationship, and suggests incompatability. If you can't "cure" that part of your relationship, maybe you should be serious about looking for a boyfriend while maintaining your friendship, but I'd recommend putting a greater effort into finding a replacement boyfriend right now, since the friendship hurts. Breaks are great when things are going rough.

Going to movies alone Posted: 8/11/2008 11:24:48 AM
I was forced to do everyone alone when I was "married". Now that I'm not married, I'm getting a life, and enjoying things with real people.

Same gender contact not always for dating Posted: 8/10/2008 1:55:12 PM
I notice that you have a checkbox for blocking people that contact someone of their own gender. Although this is a dating site, it's also a social club, and I've emailed someone of my gender for information concerning a group, since she's the organizer. Which leaves me with the issue of being flagged as interested in women, which I'm not, at least not romantically, and not outside of the scope of friendship. Can you create a caution for checking that box? Thanks for your considerations.
