She's so damn far away and so damn attractive...

So far away from me.
So far I just can't see.
So far away from me.
You're so far away from me.

Ewwwww. It looks like it's been stepped on.

Icky sticky mess...

My first kiss of someone I loved as an adult was when I was 19.

She was the first woman I dated. We had been holding hands and talking a lot after going for a walk. We sat on a green wooden porch swing at the back of her house. It was dark outside on a warm summer night. Her parents were inside watching the TV.

I remember we both turned to look at each other with our eyes locked. Her eyes had mesmerized me from the day we met. They positively twinkled like the stars that night in the darkness. I was very nervous. I kissed her just as the TV laugh track kicked in on the TV inside. It helped relieve the nervousness of that moment. There were many more sweet kisses to come but I will always remember our time on that green porch swing.

My prayers and understanding for you (((Maria))) at this time.


I am so sorry for your loss.

Welcome to mingle.



Yes, I feel the same about my most recent unsolicited pen pal.

Thanks for the tip.

In fairness, this requirement appears in the profiles of both genders.



I do not choose this rigid path. If we consider the relationship of a loving couple with children, there are always choices made by both parents regarding the welfare of the children. I believe that any married couple with children must also make sacrifices in favor of their children. That's why there are such services called 'respite care' for parents regardless of status. I believe this scenario would also be true for a new woman in a relationship with a single father.

I would ask those who use the word 'interfere' in referring to the dynamic between the children and a new partner to avoid the pitfall of assigning a numeric priority to either.



I would want my child to be able to see a healthy and loving relationship between myself and another woman. I want that relationship to be a positive role model for their future relationships. I would want her to be a 'mother' figure for my child.

I would ask those that view the new woman as a replacement mother for the father's children to read my words in the previous paragraph carefully.

I appreciate everyone participating here so far. The response has been much greater than it was back in 2008. Thank you.

Please keep contributing. I know I am busy searching out some of these names. I guess I should add archeology to my profile interests .

If anyone wants see the original archive, here it is.
Back then this website was called 'Just Say Hi' so if you see JSH, that is what they are referring to.
I love TLAs .

Hello and welcome to mingle.

Taipei is a great city. I had an enjoyable experience there many years ago. The National Museum was great.

I wish you the nest in what you seek here.

Lady Gaga. I find her very interesting and fascinating.

I watched her sing the Sound of Music soundtrack recently. Very nicely done.

I was 6 and in first grade. I remember how much fuss was made about it by others in the class. I felt so proud.

She moved away to another town during the summer. I called her on a pay phone in church on Sundays. The rest of the memories of her have faded away now.

Still waters run deep.

I never have dessert before I have dinner.

And she disappeared. Maybe she's with the running back...lol
