And the best book I've read on Buddhism is
What the Buddha Taught by Walpola Rahula And I just have to share this...since where all learning here...from page 86 of the aboveforementioned book... As the Buddha says: "The victor breeds hatred, and the defeated lies down in misery. He who renounces both victory and defeat is happy and peaceful." thank u for letting me share |

Friend or not, you at one time were close(17 years). You more than likely spent time with each others families. I agree with Lilth, goto the service and offer your condolensces. One of my biggest fears as an only childand being single is dealing with my parents death alone. You need to go and show your support and pay respects to his DAD, he did nothing wrong to you. i was not invited to the service and have not been informed of where it will be held. if i knew the location of the service i would send a card and flowers. my life does not overlap with his and his family's. none of them have any place in my life. . . . Well then if that's the case...do nothing and let it go :) |

A friendship for 17yrs.. hmm, you must have known his father, no? Send flowers/plant to the "family". His father never did anything to you. I couldn't have said it better myself. Good luck to ya on this one. |

I think its about timing and if you are attracted to the person whi is emailing you... You are right but a not interested reply is better than no reply. God bless I think you gotta point there...not interested reply is better than no reply...it's just down right inconsiderate...jmho |

Thanks for your answer...it's what I expected to hear. I just thought I'd see how many responses to the question I would get and how the answers would go. I'm sorry you had to deal with an individual of that caliber. I do appreciate your honesty in answering my silly question.

Fibromyalgia what a topic.
Ok...I guess I'll start with some history then throw out my question. I was dx'd in 1992 after having surgery in '89 for throasic outlet syndrome, had a bi-lateral first rib resection. I worked until '92 as a bookkeeper/secretary...constantly on the computer...as I am now ...at the time I was married, had a kid about 6yo then, then 8 yrs later got divorced...was single living by myself for about 3-4 years...then had another child after and 1 yr later she moved to where she is now with her permanent guardians...I was living with this male for 4-5 yrs...My fibro/tos/cfs/add/oa blah blah blah can keep me on the couch some days...and some days I'm out doing stuff like a "normal" person....ok...I hope the history is laid out enough to ask the following question... How do you all with this condition find individuals to hang with and/or live with who can tolerate this condition, life style, situation? Personally I don't think I'm all that demanding a person but any one I've met or have hung out with ultimately can't stand hanging with a fibro-person ...I've observed this with several other friends of mine that live with fibro as well ...maybe it's just me...yes I've thought that ...so...here I sit...which is fine I can live with that if I have too ...if not and there are people out there that don't mind a fibro-persons life style maybe I'll run into them. Right now I have a housemate who also has fibro and we've only shared this living situation for a short while but we both do know and understand how someone with fibro etc has to live. So...there's the question...if anyone can give me there insight...thanks I'd love to read what you all have to say. |
