im just me, no frills , easy going, i say my piece, it might not be liked...but i respect what other people think to..on here i like to joke have a giggle..yeh probably get on my high horse sometimes dont we all...do i know people on here well enough to judge them ..no...face to face, i take them at face value unless they hurt me then its bye bye


sometimes it is hard to read others online. but then again when the attacks on others or insults keep coming all the time...then more than likely that is an sign that maybe something is wrong


yes, and you can also pick out the passive aggressive ones who like to start fights, and then sit back and say..."but what did I do" I read those people online quite well....

Intersesting Rose, we have dicussed our simularities before, but I didn't know that. My father died when I was 5.


i was brought up by my mom and was angry with my dad for dying. she brought me up with an understanding of how relationships work and that it's different for different people. she told me it's something i need to learn and find out what it is to me. i'm sure there are people that loose their opposite sex parent and maybe become bitter (lack of better word).

Seriously, they have done studies on young girls growing up without fathers & "self esteem", but could watching the interation between parents be key in learning dating skills like the "bull sh@t detector"?
My dad was awesome...why am I such a crappy date? laugh

Rose I was brought up by my tall, thin, beautiful mother who pretty much ignored me except to remind me that she was so beautiful that she could re marry if she didn't have 4 kids preventing it. Oh & she had to make sure I knew I was too fat, lazy & stubborn for any man to ever want me.

When I say beautiful I mean it this woman is like Liz Taylor who never got fat.

Sorry off topic.ohwell

I am not stating that the idea about fathers is fact, just wondering if it could be a learning factor.

I think everthing that happens to you in your life is a lesson to be learned.....

I don't like to interact immediatly with people, I like to study them first, I have 3 brothers, 2 of them are awesome people, my parents loved me, so I learned loyalty, and I learned who to and not to give loyalty to. My father always said "All a man has is his word" and I try very hard to live by that.

But that is asking them to change, they see that as you saying they are not good enough . They don't see the compliment in it. I see the raw talent wasted, & would like to think I could help him focus it, but they get stick on the "don't try to change me" Venus & Mars...

true...you can't change anyone but yourself. all you can do is offer advice and they can decide to make a change or not

I used to think bettering myself (relationship wise) would pan out for me, but it just limits what I find acceptable, if I can better myself, why can't they (generally speaking of course)
