Sure about that? How can she tell you she has a headache...when her mouth is full all the time?

Seriously, it's not the Russian, Nigerian, Whatever'ian women that worry me. It's the good ole' AMERICAN women that scare the crap outta me.

Got scammed by one of them on the internet awhile ago. Not for money, but for attention, time, interest and possible affection. Her lies were good...very good. Safe to say, more of what she told me was untruths vs. truths.

She never asked for money...but, I sure felt robbed when I found out the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

Now, that's scary to me!

True...as long as it remains a BOARD "game".

Was his name Willie Wonka, Kim?

Seriously, I never egg-on a scammer...I personally don't have the patience and definately not the time.

I either don't respond at all, or if I'm in a pissy mood, simply type back: "I have AIDS. Got any white bloods cells to spare?".

Seems to swat the nasty pests away either way.

Meditation!!

*everyone say...."oooooooohmmmmm"*

^^ Yup, what he said...perfectly.

I wish you the best birthday EVER!!!!

However, I must say, and please do not take this the "wrong" way *ducks behind the couch*....

You may just want to look inside yourself as to why you do all these nice things for others. Are you honestly coming from a place of ingenuity with your spirit, or do you have an emotional agenda for something in return?

I'm just saying, if you had posted that no one in your direct life was recognizing your birthday yet and you were hurt...albeit all you supposedly have done for them, I likely wouldn't point this out to you is all.

Now, let's party in your honor because you deserve it!

Yikes!

*Never become friends with THAT woman...she likes to "play" Monopoly*

WHOOPS!

Again, in that case...just depends on who it is and to what degree I had a relationship with them.

Someone close to me: I'd ask.

Someone not close to me: Wouldn't even give it a second thought while I was eating pickles.

I agree. Not to mention, it depends upon what your definition of "ignore" is. Is it just a case of someone not responding in what you think is a timely manner to an email or two...or have they completely cut you off...no response to emails, phone calls, text messages, banging on the door, overhead fly-bys, billboard messages...?

Ok, explain something to me...

why would this woman say..."it would be really awkward"?...to her friend?

No offense, but you young folks are really WEIRD sometimes in your thought processes.

And my sarcastic and honest comment to you is...how idiotic of you to even think I was even remotely being sarcastic in my last post, my supposed "friend".

I completely stated I use sarcasim in numerous posts...however, it only takes an idiot to twist it to make it all about them, or worse yet...not even grasp it as a sarcastic joke for the masses. Certainly doesn't make anyone more special than another...just more mature and thick-skinned via experience.

And you call my post "crudely mean" after what you posted to Ms. Queen? All I can say is....WOW, ZP!

Keep honing those supposed sarcastic skills of yours...as I suspect you missed a few classes along the way.

I'm with ya'...

Pull my finger!

Okay...recap here:

1. You joined this site on 10/25/08, right?

2. You make sure you talk to anyone you meet at least a two weeks prior to meeting in person, right?

3. You've met three people so far from this site, right?

4. Today's date is 11/16/08, right?

5. You label most other women "b*tchy", right?

And your dilemma again...is?

No need to build it up with fluffy words for me.

One who leaves me 'breathless'.

'Nuff said.

Again, I'm NOT judging here, but your smoking seems incessive, especially if you say you are on a fixed income.

Would you be posting the same question if your neighbor were asking for a cup of sugar every week?

I just think your financial priorities are a tad warped...given your current situation.

Just a thought...



Edit: Not to mention, after reading your profile, I think you may want to change your answer to smoking from "occassionally" to "frequently or freight train" or whatever option they offer for constant smokers like yourself. Just sayin'...

Let's see here...10 packs to a carton...and you need 3 cartons a month to "survive" on a limited income? That equates to at least a pack a day, right?

Yup, I'm a non-smoker...and not a vigilante for non-smoking, but holy SMOKES, that sounds excessive to me, especially on a fixed income.

I say quit smoking, and it would likely cure a lot of your problems, including the grubby neighbor who wants to bum off of you.

^^ There's your answer right there, dude!

Hate to break it to your young, tender heart...but, she's over you, but using you because she is "in love" with the idea of being "in love". You are just *filler/fluff* right now to her.

Do not go for a turkey dinner...do not ask for extra stuffing...and do NOT collect $200 when you pass GO! Move on, buddy.

I don't mean to be harsh here...really...

but, you are only 19 and to state you are "mature and know where you want to be in 4 years"?

I give you "props" (as you folks say of your age range) for steering your own ship and all, but given you clearly already have children at your tender age and are still a student trying to obtain some resemblence of a career...keep on course with THAT vs. trying to find Mr. Right, right now.

Not to mention, you mention..."most women are "b*tches" just proves my point that you are immature by nature and shear lack of experience except for those of your own age group.

Again, not being harsh or judgmental...just honest and basing my post on my years of experience.

I say, simmer down...relax...enjoy life and your child (children), and when your bitterness has calmed down..."he" will come to you.

We love trivia games also! Although, last night we played Pictionary and me and my eldest son got our arses KICKED by my other two youngest children!

Yup, same here, Mr. Music!

It would be that way EVERY night in my home if I had sole custody, but I have a joint custody - co-parenting situation here, which actually works VERY well for all of us.

Thankfully, my ex-wife and I still parent identically as when we were married...and we remain best friends, and keep our children's best interests at heart. However, with my work schedule and the kids' schedules during the week, it's tough to do the Ozzie/Harriet routine every night.

However, Sundays will always be Family Night in my household...even if that means the kids all say "this BLOWS" and storm off to their rooms.

Now, about these smaller cookies....
