What happened?   7/5/2005

After six dates, he just stops talking to me; no answering calls, emails. Not a word to explain what happened. We live in a society where, unfortunately, some people believe they can just trample on someone else's emotions and it is reflected on tv, news, etc. Respect begins with acknowledging that one cannot have relationships with others unless respect is shown. Thank you for the ...

Modern living   6/4/2005

1) The man is at fault. He seems to think that there is something to prove. Usually of course his virility. So off he goes beating his chest and looking for the first Jane in the jungle. 2) The woman is at fault. She's had enough. The have all grown up and the man looks like a pair of old shoes that need chucking out. A younger man is what she wants. An article I read recently said that ...

You must have some standards   5/30/2005

I hardly noticed really when it started to happen. On reflection it could have happened 20 yrs ago. A king size bed and me all alone on 'my side'. Or was it only 10 yrs ago when I was only coming home at the w/ends? Or was it when we stopped bathing together? left home and we found that we had nothing to talk about? When i was away I would ring three times a day. Morning, lunch time and ...

How many stages do we go through?   5/27/2005

After the divorce is over, how long and how many stages do we go through? What are they, and when do we know we are through all? I have been a year now and feel reasonably well satisfied I have worked through all, but maybe others know more than I about much of this. I heard one man refer to taking half the years you were together to get over marriage.. is that so? if so I was 20 year, ...

There is Life After A BreakUp!   5/2/2005

You've been dating 9 months now and things are looking a little rough. You don't hear from him (or her) as much and when you do, conversations are short and vague. You hear the "I've been busy" excuse and you wonder "What did I do wrong". Ladies (and gents), when you start hearing these responses it's time to mentally and emotionally prepare yourself for a break-up. (Get your mind ...

Made Easy (or easier)   4/26/2005

We have talked about honesty and it really comes into play here. The truth hurts sometimes but hurts most of the time when a relationship turns sour for one of the parties. It's best to be truthful and just tell it like it is or maybe sugar coat it to save some feelings, but be firm that it is over. Feelings will always be hurt, but we are adults and most of us can handle it and move ...

It's not that hard   4/2/2005

Breaking up? wow! it is something that should be honest and talked about before hurt feelings occur. No one likes to be told that they are not "the one" and least of all be told that by a person they thought really liked them. But breaking up can open you up to new people who may be more interested in you than the person you are presently seeing. The main thing in a breakup is to tell ...

Relationships Can Be Disappointing   3/17/2005

This is why I always try to give the other party a face-saving way out, regardless of who wants to end it. I like to leave this world off better for having sojourned here. Everyone has feelings. Everyone matters.

Hello, I have been in a relationship for eight years and enjoy all aspects except what happens behind closed doors.

Men can be so stupid!!!!!!   3/5/2005

It started out as friends and we maintained that even though we were intimate. I fell in love and thought God sent him to me. He decided things were too serious and wanted to be friends. I believe he loved me. Why are men so stupid when it comes to commitment? To me it is so simple. I thought we had it all, but it turned out he was biding his time while waiting for the perfect woman to step ...

God and Ice Cream   2/19/2005

Last week I took my to a restaurant. My six-year-old asked if he could say grace. As we bowed our heads he said, "God is good, God is great. Thank you for the food, and I would even thank you more if Mom gets us ice cream for dessert. And Liberty and justice for all! Amen!" <br> Along with the laughter from the other customers nearby, I heard a woman remark, "That's what's ...

If I was happy would I be here?   2/2/2005

I remember chatting with this guy once, nothing new about this but I had asked him if he was happily married he said to me "if I was happy would I be here". I wonder if that is true if someone is in a relationship and they spend time on the net does this mean they are or are not happy??

Sibling Rivalry   1/23/2005

A Sunday school teacher was discussing the Ten Commandments with her five and six year olds. After explaining the commandment to "honor" thy Father and thy Mother, she asked, "Is there a commandment that teaches us how to treat our brothers and sisters?" <br> Without missing a beat one little boy (the oldest of a family) answered, "Thou shall not kill."

Let's say you met this wonderful and beautiful lady, but she is from a different country and culture, she swept you off your feet. Problem is, that she has a foul mouth. She can only speak street language. What would you do. How are you going to introduce her to your friends and parents.

Response to: Why senior men seek younger women?   10/31/2004

Frankly speaking: The women within my age bracket are all used up and can’t or won’t participate in many of the activities of my lifestyle. I have to strongly disagree with “57 and fine” on this one. I have no problem standing toe to toe intellectually with women my age. Nor do I find that the younger women are intellectually inadequate. Quite the contrary my ...

Response to;- Dating and Spending money.   10/21/2004

May I add a little understanding from a man's point of view. When were being raised and taught how to date, many of us were taught that women like to be treated special. I dinner at a fine resturaunt, a movie, flowers, these things we were taught to present a lady with to show her as a man we were, or could be, a good provider for a family. Having the ability to give these gifts can be seen ...

Years ago I had a lover that I was totally "Mad" about. Then we broke up. I felt that I couldn't trust him, and I was right. He married some one else who was more tolerant of his foibles. They are still married, but lead separate lives. I still see my old friend, not as a lover,I could never have those romantic feelings with him again, but I see him strictly as a friend. His wife knows and ...
