Since, this is my post, what I'll share here is what matters to me. I don't expect everyone to give a "**", but this is just in case you see this and plan to send me a message.

I can be pretty conversant. I can carry a very sensible, but, interesting and funny conversation for hours. But if you are like �eah?', "hmmm..", �k", "lols", "I see", then better not exert effort to even say Hi. You can be very handsome and superbly hot with your 6 packs, but if you're a one-liner kind of guy, I honestly won't be interested. So, please, have some interesting topic in your pockets when you hit my INBOX. Oh, and one more thing, if you're so intent in seeing boobs and all the flesh over a cam, you, surely, are not getting it from me. SO, when it comes to that, I can be pretty boring. Saying it so it saves us both some precious time.

Thanks! Hoping to find good people who could share great topics from around the globe.

I still think if someone doesn't want to talk, that is their feeilngs and they are as entitled to them as those who 'feel' like they should talk,,,,

its two ways, if the other way ain't willing, go on your way with something else

its been my experience that no one stops talking FOREVER, at some point they will, when THEY decide THEY WANT TO,,,

I don't see the difficulty,,,

but then, I have always been just as comfortable doing my own thing as interacting with someone else,,,

just how 'genuine' is he when he clearly has been in a relationship the entire time he has been, as you put it, "had flirty gestures", "even softly kissed my cheek", "lingering" touches? don't these things fall into the cheating category? (even if to a small degree.)

sounds to me like he was waiting for something better to come along, so you can take that as a compliment or you can see him as a snake in the grass that has completely deceived this other woman for the last two years. (pretty much up to you.)

i wonder how he explains the time he spends with you to his long time girlfriend?

what do you do! when your lover or partner...
gives you the proverbial... cold shoulder..... that is throughout the day or week.. depending on your sex drive..you drop hints.. that you need servicing so to speak..lol....
. you get into bed with them..
... thinking that your.. subtle. but provocative hints.have worked..
. their magic... and they give you the cold shoulder..... what do you do then..
... yes this.. probably won't stay up for a long.. ohhh..
the topic I mean...lol

In response to James -
Wow, your comment is very dissapointing for me to read. I would hope it would be the opposite because I think that your opinion is part of the reason why girls can act very "stupid" to get attention.

The biggest obstacle I have had to overcome on this site is sounding too "pretentious" or "superior." I am someone who is very confident in her intelligence, so I don't try to dumb down my use of language. Unfortunately, many guys see this as a negative. As far as I can tell, they are either threatened by the prospect of a smart woman being able to see through their bullsh*t, or they just don't find intelligence attractive. What is your opinion? Do you subconsciously judge people based on their intelligence?

I did not realize you live where you live...hmm.. well if you ever need a hand with anything. .. including bringing in your groceries...lol.. just let me know.. how's the weather down there..lol..

.hmm.. I could do so much with your reply..lol.. but I will behave myself.... yes you are correct.. an extra pair of hands would be nice...
..hmm.. trying very hard to keep this topic clean..lol... not only for the. points, you pointed out... but bringing all the groceries in by yourself ,really sucks.!..

sadly my experience has taught me.. MOST men are...

The time its scary is when you are injured and can hardly get by without help. I've been there more than once and just lately! It infurrirates me to be crippled after everything else i've been through! I know its partially permanent now, but still an eyeopener for the future! Luckily i believe in my training and 2 words pop up everytime! (Adapt-overcome) working for now!!

Hell yes. you still have a Heart it may have some ice crystals around it but it can thaw! Damn i pick my friends good!!((YOU GOT IT))

.. what are some of the biggest challenges you have faced...
in..going it alone so to speak..
.

I did similarly.. I married one that was 3" shorter.. in the end he became intolerably intimidated.. to the point of lashing out for control (a reaction to his intimidation sadly) however I did date another guy after him that was 5'2.. thinking 'different person, different possible outcome?' yeah.. didn't work either..

I may be wrong but.. it could also have something to do with the 'strength' of the woman men in general find intimidating.. just not in the physical sense..
