No...I prefer to make things from scratch. They always taste Great and I think they are better for you.

I'm not sure I believe there is such a thing as a "soulmate". But I do believe once you think you have found that someone special....what is the sense in continuing to look for men. That's like saying "Oh, I'm married; but maybe it won't work out". So my answer to your question is "NO."

Wow.....that's just CRAZY. What is wrong with people!!!

ha...ha...ha.....Sorry, but no thanks.....tomorrow will be here soon enough!

Sure....who doesn't think of that.

OMG....Is that like reality tv come to life or what. Why would anyone WANT to see what it's like to be homeless. So pay to put yourself through the mental anguish that these poor people deal with every day. That's just WRONG. Why not do fund-raisers to get money to help the shelters do more for these people. Institute a "Get back on your feet and get back out into the world" type of program. Teach them life skills. Some day some place someone smart is going to start classes at the local schools to teach our children basic "life skills" like..."...how to budget money, how to balance a checkbook, why it's important to save for a rainy day, what your responsibility would be in owning a home vs. renting..." things like this would be alot more positive and productive than oh geez....let's be a homeless person today and see how terrible it is to personally put myself in that position! Where do you live? Wow! Terrible.

I have seen on here people having a profile with a picture of animals/cartoons/weird things----it's not even a photo of themselves.

The problem is that they can post anyone's picture. So do you trust that people are honest or do you worry that the picture is not really them?

Those thinking that a picture will tell you if the person is your own idea of "normal" doesn't mean a thing. How many people do you see on tv that looked so called "normal" and was some rapist or killer or drug dealer.

Personally I think a picture narrows down your field; if you are first looking at a photo. Why spend the time talking to someone and liking them as a possible long term relationship for it to end if they don't like the "package" so to speak.

Why be afraid. We are what we are. I believe that everyone is attracted to different types of people and that's what makes the world go around.

I figure.....Don't be afraid....post a recent picture of yourself. By doing do you are weeding out the people that are not attracted to you right away and the people that respond to you already know what you look like. (((Which does not tell them what type of person you are by any means))

Lots of reasons for not posting a picture and lots of reasons to post.

As far as the freaks and mental cases and killers/stalkers, etc. This internet and every dating site is their new expanded playground. Just be careful, always!

I'd definitely make an appointment and get it checked out. I have poor circulation and elevating my foot doesn't make it fall asleep that easily. Better safe than sorry. Good Luck.

Always having to live paycheck to paycheck----as most do in NY...I was laid off because of the lack of work. And I have many skills (bookkeeping/office management/customer service)and just can't find anything that will pay me anywhere near where I need.
AND I still have all of those bills coming in each month (like clockwork). BE thankful you have what you have and learn to get rid of the things that are not NEEDS and I agree that "living on faith" is needed.

Great Advice and it's all the things that I have read!

Go alone and it's not that much money. And the movie theater experience is Great.....providing that you have stadium seating and surround sound and decent popcorn! The movies here are $8.25 for a great theater with all of the above. I love it and go as often as my budget allows. Definitely a costly endeavor if taking my son along!!!

I don't judge people; I judge what they are doing and if I want to be around that person.....Remember "Judge Not, yest ye be judged".

I grew up with parents that did JUDGE everyone and so I have come a long ways from their views. And it is hard not to judge someone that is different than you are.

Why be anything but the "real" you!

I'm me.....Are you, you?

Pictures to men are like the VISUAL aspect that either gets them or has them fleeing. That's why the picture that you put on here is so important. Let's face it MEN are VISUAL.

Nope.

I think it started out as common curtosy to ask. But very seldom do people take the time to listen to the answer. It's become the new "Hello" to them!

Unfortunately, many people are not OPEN to criticism.

That's the problem.

I say....'Don't ask, if you don't want to hear the answer'.

I think some just want validation of what their inner thoughts (intuition) have already told them.

My experience with the people that think they are always right & everyone else is wrong (and are serious about that thought) are either VERY close minded, control freaks, or just stupid and are afraid others will find out.

Well, I am a very empathetic as well as a compassionate person and would feel compelled to help anyone in need. If it were within my capabilities, I would have moved my car to the door of the grocery market and bought staples for at least one good meal and then told her about the local food pantries and any organization that I might be aware of to help people in need.

Unfortunately, you are correct in your worries about this being a possible scam....there are many scams and strange things happening around that you just don't know what to do and still be safe!

At the end of the day; it boils down to you having to live with your decision. We are all different and have been dealt different things in our lives and this may have been something you just couldn't do and be okay with.

I once had a man on the street walk up to my car and ask for money and I asked him if it was for food and he said yes. So I told him I had no money; but me and my son had just been to the Burger King and we gave him our food. He immediately started eating. This type of thing happened a lot in Dallas, TX.

Why would you EVER have to give up anything to have the love of your life. They would hopefully feel the same way and no one would have to give up anything. Loving someone would mean that you compliment each other and benefit from what each brought to the relationship. No one should EVER have to give up anything for the love of another! If you do---you are self sacrificing for the wrong person!
