(Oh, and I don’t know if you noticed, but I changed my tag line for the first time in years).
I was the most shocked when her eyes finally cleared. I was certain that she would be blind for life and would forever be eating baby food from a dropper. When I finally saw improvement and then she started seeing, I was amazed. It's incredible to see a little animal recover.

Sorry about the ordeal.....but you'll find the perfect guy for you... I just know it! :)
as usual, you share well thought out ideas & you are SO right.
semantics here are bad in the dating scene. and so is the absence of honesty & so is the real depth of self awareness of a lot of people
If they don’t truly know themselves (as separate from the princess/prices of the world) how can they ever relate in a worthwhile manner to a soul mate?
I have a LOT of really close male friends & early on their was an attraction BUT NOT a romantic attraction, which is quite different. Age here again is not impt & also because you are NOT playing the dating game, honesty is there & friendship can bloom.
I think one dishonest thing some women do is date a guy because no one else is around at the moment. They KNOW they really aren’t interested in a depth relationship with this person and are still checking out the gallery, but “for now” will date someone else to keep their life interesting.
I dislike when there is this disregard of the other’s feelings.
I think often it is best to say something like
You know I truly do enjoy your company but dont see us heading toward a romantic life.. if you want to continue to share time & friendship with that in mind, I would enjoy it also.
But only say that if one means it...
yes, I did notice! (and about an hour ago I posted at Starwise’s FT thread)
Leopard geckos do stop growing after a while. She'll never grow any longer or have any bigger bone structure. Ultimately, I hope she'll regain her weight until she looks like my friend's other one.
This is Shy.
good to hear...
Good post...
IMHO, people should be upfront. Call a spade a spade.
Following up on your kind remarks...
This *singles* stuff is harder than I imagined it would be.
I have met and had the opportunity to go out with several men, but, nice as they have all been, the special rapport everybody looks for when dating isn’t always there.
It’s that special *something* that makes you take special notice of someone and makes you want to talk to and see that person again/get to know that person better...
It just doesn’t happen as easily or as readily as I guess we would all like.
I love margaritas! a great excuse to go for Mexican food(but I love mexican so don’t need excuses)
I also enjoy bloody mary’s...
What I am sipping now is a black russian w/mint.
Absolute Vanilla, Kaluaha, & Cream De Mint.
over shaved ice.
I am still at computer as I am awaiting some infor from friend re: a service I am attending tomorrow.
Glad you are okay after the storms.. It looked like a powerful system. heading our way & will hopefully break up a bit beforehand.
I was at the live thread earlier.
Good to see you
Bill
Uh...me been out of the singles list too long...
Krunkygirl is a southern girl(well florida girl)
When I lived in Florida a lot of the people did NOT like to be referred to as southern people. They wanted to be referred to as Floridians. I think they thought being called a “southerner” was like being called a red neck perhaps?
welcome!
I've lived much of my life kinda in the Southeast. I'm in Louisiana now.
Congrats!!
I needed backup...8^)
Those are all right...
Lunch Box (aka Irish Carbomb)—now that’s where it’s at...
Pint of Guinness
Shot glass: 2/3 Jameson, rest Baileys
Drop the shot glass and chug like heck...8^)
Thanks!
sounds interesting.
I recall my dad & his buddies used to like a “shot in the beer” as they called it.
what you describe is about the same but a better quality.
For the longest time I thought they mixed them..yuk
No. Thanks...
It needs to be said. I’ve dealt with that for most of my existence here. IMHO, it’s more damaging and insulting than just simply saying, “I want nothing to do with you”
At least then, I could give them props for at least being honest.
