BOY could I think of some snappy comebacks to that but I wont!!!bigsmile noway :wink:


Yeah, yeah. I get some interesting crap working here. Funny sometimes, and downright creepy at other times. And it's a decent hotel, which is kinda sad.

Needless to say, I always carry my knife on hand.
Boy could I tell U some stories about the Motel we stayed in Petersburg, Va. last June, it was a nightmirror from start to finish!!

I'm sure. One hotel I had stayed at they were cooking meth in the next room over. I rarely use hotels, and if traveling, and not tenting, I'll just sleep in the car, in the rest areas. They're not the greatest, but since I can't afford upper end hotels, it works better then the cheap ones.

OUr first night there (after flying 5 hours and then driving 6 hours from Baltimore) we checked in at 11:30 at niight, we were pooped!! My brother and I put our bags down, drank a quick beer and got ready to turn in for the night, I went in to take a quick shower, and found a hair dryer and a nighty in the bathroom. It turned out they put us in a room that was already rented to 2 ladies, can U imagine if we had gone to sleep and they walkedd in with us sleeping in their room?

Long distance conversations.........yep

At this point, the continental U.S. seems like it is local. I got good friends in Alaska, Brittain, Scotland, Vienna, Australia, Isreal, venezuela, Kyoto, Xian Chen, and a sweety in Bratislava who I love talking to.

It definitely opens up new perspectives that I would have never considered and broadens my knowledge......it is illegal for pregnant women in China to bathe or wash thier hair from a pregnancy till a month after child birth..........eeeeeewwwwwww I never knew!

As far as I can tell, it doesn't harm anyone and I love conversing with my global friends. There are alot of really cool people out there....even if it does take a little patience to try to figure out what the hell they are saying. (let me clue you in....web-translators ain't always spot on accurate and some countries systems will censer foul language....like idiot, panzy, stupid, goofy)

For guys, online romance is about starting out with baby steps - they first just need a female somewhere to acknowledge they're alive.


Hummmm and at times ya do that get things set up they come through town and poof they flake out on the met.............Therefore those that were willing to meet sooner or later get to the point they no longer want too........

I've had many long distance relationships, one even with a woman from Japan. She came to live with me many times, and we'd be married today if the eastern culture didn't freak her out so much. Long distance relationships (marriages) statistically last longer because you know that the other person REALLY loves you, since they have gone through so much to be with you. With local relationships the other person can end the relationship in heartbeat because it's so easy to find someone else locally. The worst part of a long distance relationship is that it's hard when you want to be with the other person but you can't, but then absence makes the heart grow fonder.... flowerforyou

hmmm, interesting... I would like to see the source of these statistics....

papersmile and I have been together near 4 years now

we talk several times a day by phone and yahoo

and see each other not as often as we would like to but every chance we can

If I were not sick and limited in what I can do, I would already be living in Canada (except they wont let me cross the border haha. insurance)

So I just started using this site again and in the last two days I have been back I have gotten more hits from guys from different states and even countries than in my own backyard. My question is why would you try to get into a relationship with people who arent close to you??? Maybe they are just trying to be friends but I still find it odd I guess.


I could be wrong, but if there anything like me and you already talked about it. How often do you meet someone in your own back yard as you put it? There seems to be more people some will be interested in that live long distance, then there are near them. It seems to always work out that way. At least with me it has. So what choices do some really have knowing it's hard to find someone near them.

sometimes you don't 'try' to get into a relationship with someone so far away, but the chemistry just happens to be there and the pieces just fall into place.

i've been with my guy for over 4 years and he lives over 1,000 miles away.


And you are both really cute together! drinker happy


really its just her

I push her to the front so people wont notice me

I agree with that paper, if the love is there the distance isnt that big of a factor!!

I gots to say the distance is a really big factor

it's difficult

it's really hard on papersmile. I'm a lot more of a stoic and take life as it comes type person

we miss each other a LOT

and its really expensive for us to see each other

BUT

she is worth every penny, and every minute that we DO spend together makes up for the nights spent on yahoo wishing we could be together instead of sitting alone and looking at each other through a stoopid webcam

but make no mistake. it definitely aint easy. it's the magnitude of the love that we share that gives us the strength to over come
