Ever heard the one about the broken pencil..?

If not, don't worry..

it was pointless

On some Caribbean Islands, the oysters can climb trees.

Uh.. why would an oyster *want* to climb a tree..?

Why are all the best the saddest..?

Lovely..

You can tell a Yank from a mile off..?

Good eye, mate..!

I'll cast another vote for unexpected..

I believe in synchronicity..:-)

While I suppose there are people on here (probably newbies) who are 'scared' to contact anyone.. they 8are* on here.. so they know they have a desire..

Thus, the idea of running across 'that one' would seem to override that fear eventually.. Maybe they watch (lurk) for a bit..

For those on here for a while.. and having tried a few contacts.. and obviously been rejected (or the two would be off happily ever after, right..?) .. they (like me) might tend to just sit back and dee what comes..

My take on it, anyway..

I'm not crazy..

And neither am I..!

" I never have this problem. I rarely meet anyone I'm interested in. At best, it's someone passing through town and I'll never see again.."

Jeez.. sux to be you, eh..?

But you have a lovely profile.. and are upbeat about it..:-)

Sher

I'll go with TxsGal on this one..

"I'm old I want the emotional bond with the sex included,
without the sex forget it. noway"

I've always viewed sex as an extension of the relationship..
that is.. one between a man and a woman ...

And I suppose that it would be the same for gays..

Maybe this demi-thing has to do with sex drive.. some sort
of brain chemical thing..? Whaddu I know..?

From what I gathered from the definition.. I wouldn't view it as even needing its own term.. since it seems a normal outlook to want an emotional connection to a partner..

I guess it would depend on how 'deep' a connection you needed..

Advice..? Nothing other than 'friends first'..

You ain't gonna like my answer.. Sorry about that..

As I see it.. your question is how do I protect myself from being
even mildly embarrassed..? Or heaven forbid.. vulnerable.

How to find out..? ASK..??

Any guy is going to be flattered if a woman who looks like you says she's interested in him.. and if he is the guy you think.. he will be sensitive enough to your feelings..

Either way.. you'll know.

Or you can fiddle away a couple months looking for clues.. and still not knowing.. <shrug>

I was watching a recent IHOP (International House of Pancakes)
TV ad recently..

"Bring your family to enjoy breakfast at IHOP..!
Start the day off right..!

<show happy family.. Dad, Mom, 2 kids>


And remember..!

Kids eat free from 4 PM to 8 PM at IHOP's..!

Just wondering.. where do the numbers come from at the end of many names on here..?

For example James29352

This indicates there are 29,532 James's on here..???


and yes.. I do realize anyone who would wonder about that has
way too much time on their hands..:-)

Now that was a funny joke.. Ma'am..

Now *that* was hilarious.. What could trump that..?

1 + 1 + 1 = 1 True

1 + 1 + 1 = 0 False

1 + 1 = 2 should read 1 - 1 = 2 True

Please note that I got lost when they mentioned the
rate of change in the rate of change..:-)

Not sure if this is the right place.. just passing on something that people might find useful..

Years ago in group therapy I hard a woman talk of how her husband would lovingly wax his car.. and she said sadly that she wished he would touch her that way..

We all need some touching to feel.. I dunno.. connected.
Sex can be a way to get this.. or snuggling..

Now consider the person who has not had this.. You snuggle or make love to them.. and they start crying.. This is the pain they have endured
coming out.. just hold them..

Just sayin.. so you understand what it is if it happens..

You have touched a soul..

Maybe I'm outa sync here.. but I've been married 3x.. and it never occurred to me to 'cheat'.. And as a married man I'd have women throw themselves at me.. I sorta noticed that they did.. but I never even felt a response.. my 'radar' was turned off..

I operate on the idea that she either wants to be with me.. or doesn't.
Same for me.. So if find I don't. or start to feel she doesn't..
first talk about it.. If we can't work it out.. both are set free..
