I have been reading all the posts and saw such interesting answers. Everyone had great advice and I am glad that you are happy again and things are working out.. good luck with the rest of your life. you seems like a very nice young lady..

Come on kids - lets play nice. This site is supposed to bring us all together.. We all have different ideas and that is life and what makes it interesting... But putting someone else down for their views are wrong and hurtful. Lets stick together ladies.. We are all we have.. Or all that most of us have and I think, deep down, we all like each other and need each other ..

Nope - Linny is new to the forums. Played the games but decided to join in on the conversations but I cant keep up.. I get lost.. Hope to become one of you all amd, then, maybe I can "keep up with ya"

Well, I made "homemade" cinammon rolls on Saturday - all day Saturday... Needed something to do and I could say "made these myself". Well, I had made them before and they were great.. Now, after hours of mixing, rolling, waiting for dough to rise and forming and rising and baking, etc..., they turned out terrible. From now on, I am buying the dough and pull it apart and bake it and I am going to say "made it myself".. Less mess and trouble and, besides, who would know?

we have ice and snow. got the car into the garage - now, for the real test - getting it onto the highway tomorrow morning to get to work...love Winter

You must be my neighbor.. Noticed someone giggling when I slid into my drive way tonight.

I had been married for 13 years.. We never went out.. Now, here I am - date? I would love to try that again. It has been many, many years..

I agree Grace. But I am always worried that the man I want to be friends with will want more and I will hurt him. I know a man that I would to be friends with but dont call him because I think he is very lonely and will take it as a "flirt".. It is a shame because we could enjoy the company of each other..

As for me, I am alone and loving it - most of the time....But, when I am alone when I know others are enjoying the company of others - like on the weekends - then I feel so lonely. Weekends are the worst for me. In my marriage - we never went out... I was married but was very lonely also. Now I am only accountable to myself and still do not "go out" on the weekends. Where do I go? To the bars? In my small town, that is about it.. I do go to church but it is the church that my ex goes to and noone there (if there was someone) would ever date me.. But it is my church... So - what is the cure for "lonliness"?

Thank you so much for welcoming me to the site..I have found this to be the friendliest site I have been on...Hello everyone

Hello everyone.... Steaks - Wow - sounds great...

My Christmas cheer seems only to be on Christmas Eve. That is when my family comes to my house and we celebrate.. The rest of the time, I feel so all alone. I am thankfull that I have God in my life and can talk to him. But, today, a "feel sorry for Linda day" - I looked at the decorations I have up and thought - "what for"? - noone sees them anyway.. That is hard for me and my holidays end up being just that - lonely... This year, I work on Christmas and am actually thankful for that.. I do go to my childrens' house on Christmas Day when I am not working but, sometimes, still feel alone.

Hello Old Sage and everyone

Hello everyone - I am so glad I have Mingle2 friends.. Old Sage - good to see you.. Its been awhile... Have a great week everyone..

Just love your grandchildren and help their parents if you are asked. But, only if asked. Dont offer too much advice on what you would do different.. Just spoil those grandchildren! That's what grandparents are for >..

I just want to be accepted for what I am and have someone respect and accept that. I dont ever want another marriage but do hope to find someone to be my "best friend" and, then, if it is to be - more than that.. I want someone who makes me feel special.. I have not had that..

I know what is meant by making friends.. I, too, am not interested in a "relationship" but, right now at least, friendship and companionship and, if a relationship develops, then that would be nice too. I am so glad I found Mingle2 because I have found so many friends... On those lonely weekend nights, I play the games or post on the forums and dont feel so "all alone" I Have friends...

I had "comfortable" - I want fireworks with that confortable feeling... I want to feel important and sexy

O Holy Night is def my favorite but I also like Beautiful Star of Behtlemen and Silent Night...

In my own opinion - the term "class" in reference to the standing of men or women is that - Someone with class no longer has to put on "airs" or act like someone they think another person wants or dress, cook, or do anything that is based on anothers desire, wants, wishes, conditions. Someone with class defines himself or herself as a self sufficient, confident person - comfortable with their own needs, wants, desires..and do not try to be someone else...They are confortable and confident..
