And like a breath of stale air on an otherwise beautiful fall evening...

Hmmmm.....It's never been an issue for me. There's a time and place for both it would seem. Any woman I've ever been with...I always relied completely on her unmistakably good judgment. I've NEVER been disappointed.

I came here two and half months ago with an open mind. Last week, most unexpectedly, I found my soul mate - again - though not here. But, I have found a few new friends...friends I met in the Forums...and see here regularly. Also, I talk, email and text with them outside of Mingle now. Those friends know that my life is about to get even busier in December. So, I'm unsure how much longer I'll be coming here and posting. But, I must say it has far exceeded my expectations...

Welcome, my friend...some good people here...jump in the forums and have fun.

Have a great Birthday!

People who do this apparently see themselves as "entitled" somehow. Maybe we start maing citizen's arrests like Chickayoshi said...chase them down and taser their privates (first offense), water board them (second offense) and take their car (third offense)...well, maybe take their car and give them a self-propelled scooter. Seems fair...

Welcome...find some great guy in South Florida who'll take you to the Addison or 32 East...plenty of romantic, great restaurants...no reason to be bored in Boca any more! Good luck!

Hmmmmm...Never able to make new ones? That sounds like seriously dead to me! I'm at the most exciting point in an already full and exciting life. What can I say, I'm a trouble maker?...I'll make new memories and keep my old ones, too. Thanks...I'm an excellent negotiator!

No doubt, a saw that cuts both ways.

A lot of components to jealousy...self esteem, that self-assured and confident attitude - without being cocky - that allows you to trust someone. Deception, lying and cheating are just some of the behaviors that can undermine a relationship...and jealousy is just one of many ugly results.

I am drinking a Margarita out by the pool...marinading Mahi-Mahi for the grill later...fresh pasta with homemade pesto, sauteed carrots finished in Grand Marnier...and a green salad. It's Friday...and life is good!

Ah...nothing like a good rant sometime...followed by an adult beverage of your choice!

Move on and find someone worthy...obviously he wasn't...met him here? We could tar and feather him...first offense?

Of course, Dr. Tim fried just about every brain cell he ever had...

As the inimitable Yogi Berra said, "Half the lies they tell about me aren't true!"
People lie...men and women. But showing up with lie detector equipment can be a turn off...On the other hand...what a great ice breaker!

Did I hear someone say, "Margarita?" Thanks, Matt...all is well!

Yeah, sometimes you pull a thread...and stuff unravels!

Sure! But, if it's someone you have several dates with...and who might be a BF/GF...why not clarify? In the course of conversation...discuss your "relationship" as in, "Do we have one?" Can be done with humor. "Are we becoming a couple?" And the always direct, "How do you feel about dating no one
else?" Good luck...just be honest and expect - no - demand the same!

Yes, I've been in corporate headquarters of companies like Google and GE...TOTALLY different cultures!

Well, someone has struck a nerve! A lot of questions come to mind: If you were an employer, should you reasonably expect an employee's energies and efforts to go 100% into your mission, objectives and goals? If you're an employee, how do you justify doing something completely personal - playing let's say an hour a day- rather than working when you're getting paid to do a job? What do these diverging views say about loyalty, a job versus a career, trust, ethics? If you are capable of multi-tasking...should you be multi-tasking about your job rather than personal pursuits? If you were the employer rather than employee, and your company was one of your passions, would you feel differently?

Interesting...
