Hate Talking On The Phone Posted: 4/1/2006 1:04:09 PM
I love this thread! I thought I was the only one who HATES talking on the phone. I have to answer the phone all day at work and the last thing I want to do is talk on the phone when at home. I just told someone this and the next message I got was his phone number asking me to call. I hate it, I hate idol chit-chat, and I hate noise just to fill up the silence. I'm glad I'm not alone.

Can someone PLEASE tell me how to figure out the angles to cut for crown molding? I never imagined it would be so hard to figure out. Is there some magic formula out there? Or better yet, maybe a tool or something I don't know about... Thanks

How do you perceive forgiveness? Posted: 3/27/2006 9:58:23 PM
When as I started the process of "forgiveness" I quickly knew that letting go of my anger meant that I didn't have anyone else to blame for my own unhappiness. As long as I held onto that anger and resentment, I had an excuse to feel the way I did. I think true forgiveness starts when we give the offender a "Paid in Full" receipt, saying you owe me nothing. (I'm talking emotionally, not child support) The score is even. I don't accept what you did, but you don't owe me because of it either. I am taking responsibility for the way I feel, you have no part in this play anymore. I forgive because I know that pain of holding on is worse than the fear of letting go.

how do you get revenge on someone you loved Posted: 12/8/2005 11:40:53 PM
A drop or two of Visine in his drink everytime you see him should do the trick. (OK, OK, I'm just kidding!) Really, there is no better revenge than letting him go. What ever he took from you will be nothing compared to the energy, time and resources that you might spend thinking of ways to get back at him. That's one more minute of your life spent on someone who isn't worth it. Take Care

Fear of Flying. Is it a deal breaker for you? Posted: 12/8/2005 11:02:20 PM
Nope, but fear of having to pay for a plane ticket is.

being complete Posted: 12/7/2005 5:22:14 PM
For me, to complete means to finish, that something is done and nothing more is needed. I will never be complete as long as I continue to learn, grow, and love. I am not looking for an ending, I'm looking for a beginning. But I do admit, that line in "Jerry Maguire" had tears in my eyes...

What have you learned from your failed relationships? Posted: 12/7/2005 4:47:15 PM
3 years post Divorce, I can say that one of the biggest lessons I had to learn was about my fundamental beliefs. I was raised to believe that there was a larger force that worked to bring about the events in our lives. Some may refer to this as God, Fate or Karma, I suppose it can be defined in many ways, but most us have been taught to some extreme that what goes around comes around. I always thought that I had some kind of control over the circumstances of my life, an assumption of a fair distribution of life’s rewards and punishment. The hardest thing for me to accept was that things happen that make no logical sense. They just are. I didn’t do anything bad that caused this to happen to me, I’m not a bad person, I’m not repaying some unseen debt, I didn’t cause it in anyway. I was never given a choice and I had no control about events that transformed my life in many ways. All the praying, crying and wishing in the world couldn’t change it after it happened, it was what it was. Accepting this meant that sometimes bad things happen to good people, without rhyme or reason, and it changed the very essence of who I am. Not that I thought that I was better than anyone else in the first place, I just thought that if I could put good out into the world, that is what I would get back. When I finally realized that things can happen without any reason or purpose, the “why me?” stopped and the “this is what I’ve got, so let’s move on” started. We live in an unjust world sometimes, but we can’t stop living. Take Care

ladies, what is your opinion of a dude who has some cool houseplants Posted: 12/3/2005 7:26:22 PM
Depends on his reaction when he sees the artificial Lucky Bamboo that I water once a week and talk to daily, hoping that it grows.

How do you attempt to lie about calling someone in the age of CALLER ID? Posted: 12/3/2005 2:18:46 PM
Caller ID spoofing offers you the ability to change what someone sees on their call display when they receive a phone call.

Would you be offended? Posted: 12/2/2005 8:31:22 PM
NRM- I wish I did reply to every message, but to be honest, I don't. Sometimes the messages I get are honestly so out of left field, that I don't reply. See next message- I am going to work on that, I promise! I mean now that I have a cupid image to live up to. LOL SS- I wouldn't want to string anyone along, so you're right, I would want someone to tell me upfront that I'm not right for them. YES, I personally need to work on that, but I hate to just say something that would hurt someone's feelings especially when it's something you have no control over like age, height, etc.-Doesn't mean there is anything wrong with them, just not right for me-so sometimes I just say nothing. I will work on that. BB- If I ever find someone near AZ. I will be glad to pass you along! JJ- That is great! I had seen the link, but I thought both people had to have a profile on POF to use it. Did your Brother and Friend like each other or where you just using them to test the link? Are you playing cupid too?

Would you be offended? Posted: 12/2/2005 7:34:14 PM
Thanks Everyone! I do feel better now, I just wouldn't want someone to think they're not "good enough" (? for lack of better words) for me, so I'm trying to push them off on someone else. And you're right, I would ask them if they cared if I passed along the profile, etc. OK< I'm off with my wings and arrows, let's see if I'm better at matching others than I am at picking out people for myself! LOL Take Care, my2cynts

Would you be offended? Posted: 12/2/2005 4:42:54 PM
Would it offend you if you sent a message to someone and they replied "Sorry, I don't think we're a good match but I have a friend I think would be perfect for you." Is there a better way to word this? I wouldn't want to hurt someone's feelings, but I do get some messages from people who I think, "Your just my friend's type..." I don't want it to seem like I'm pimping my friends out or anything. Is it OK to play Cupid sometimes? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I might anonymously give neighbors a gift card for xmas? Posted: 11/28/2005 9:42:55 PM
Since some of your neighbors may be older or not financially in a position to do home improvements, could you organize something through a community outreach program or Habitat for Humanity to help your neighbors do the projects? Sometimes local High Schools or Vo. Tech Schools have construction classes and are willing to do projects for additional credits. Sometimes all it takes is one person to make a huge difference in someone's life. We never know what kind of struggles our friends and neighbors have going on in their day to day life, I know being a single Mother, outside home maintenance has always been a struggle for me. I think that it's great your trying to improve your neighborhood, but it may take more than a gift card. Just my thoughts.

Why do people feel the need to email you for no reason with mean comments Posted: 10/27/2005 3:48:25 PM
I joined this site yesterday, and I have gotten 2 very nasty replies. Who has time to cruise the ads and respond to the ones you don't like? Why personally attack someone because you don't agree with thier profiles? Does this happen to men? One of the messages was a full page of rant after rant about what an arrogant B**tch I am, I don't get it. Anyway, I was glad to see this posted, I thought it was just my profile. Good Luck Everyone - I don't care what anyone says, Don't Settle for Anything other than what you want. Take Care, my2cynts
