What irritaties me worse is under age vets being stinko drunk under the immediate supervision of their superiors, and soldiers being TDY and chargeing alcohol on their food vouchers so they are roaring alcoholics before they wash out of the service and become homeless.

No I don't like this broad one bit but most Veteran programs are not funded by the military but private non-profits that often pay more is administrative salaries than services to soldiers.

I love it when people say they are single when they have a FWB they have been banging for 15years and their kids call them "Family".

Not always. I sure see a lot of women threat their men like a kid, a lapdog, or worse for years and years. Scary sometimes how bad.

Might want to expand on the parts of your life that don't revolve around "partying". This profile sounds more like a solicitation rather than a person seeking a person. Photo's are ok but only have one theme. On a 1-10 scale a two. Sorry maybe when you develope your personality in your profile and the forums it will be higher.

Welcome to Mingle; checkout the special interest threads.

What is a terrible kiss to some is a great kiss to others.

If you make the kiss a choice to accept and invitation rather than just act entitled to it because you want it I think you will up your odds as being seen a good kisser.

The only thing I think you have to remember is wait until you are sure it is a mutual desire.

I have found in a good relationship.... Promise to treat your date the way you would want their dates to treat your child.

Speak gently about your past relationships because they were still your choice and you do not need to make yourself a fool.

You speak and listen in a direct ratio to the number of mouths and ears you have.

Less important is finding the perfect mate if you are trying to be the perfect mate.

Lasting love takes the same effort to maintain it as there was to attain it.

Life and relationships are about change; adapt and thrive or remain static and sink.

If you want to grow old together be young in heart.

Invest in your marriage every day and you won't pay for a divorce.

Turn the TV/electronic toys/computer off and your relationship on.

Be your spouse's best friend and your bosses employee.

The best gift to your love is not things; it is time.

If you live to be 80; 1/4 will be with your parents, 1/4 with your children, and 3/4's with your spouse; prioritize where you are going to need the most tolerance.

Sometimes balanceing your life is more important than balanceing your checkbook.

Live with in your means and Mean how you live.

Relationships will not exist without tears anymore than a plant will exist without rain.

Truth is free but lies are costly.

Love may appear in and instant but it takes a lifetime to make stay.

99% of great sex is between the ears.

Jealousy is the key to hell.

Thank you very kindly. Back @ you. (((HUG)))

Sooner think you are just having culture shock after a huge move where you havn't found a real anchor for your life and in love with the idea that love would give you a feeling of stability and belonging. Many people feel that way after big moves.

Especially your age where settleing down sounds like a good idea because so many of your peers are hooking up at one level or another.

That you seem to be aware of it is a hopeful note. Least you know to be careful.

P.S. Hang with your current employer for a couple of years and you will see you have a lot of opportunities with in the company both career wise and economically.

That the state will put some teeth into the advocacy programs for patients right. These places that are getting phat on fleeceing the taxpayers and the elderly are going to start paying some fines for messing up.

Always seen Madonna as kind of vulgar.

If she had depended on her voice and dance skills alone and not the soft, and sometimes not so soft, porn I think she would have been a has been a long time ago. The most complimentary thing I can say is enoough of her selections had a beat that made it possible to dance to.

What I will say she does know how to hire the right promoter and her publicity machine has kept her in the money.

Considering the number of kids she has I sure hope she has put a lot of her money in finacial trusts. I think they may have some major issues as they get into their pre-teens and older.

Myself also but the "old fashioned" prior dateing ettiquette seems to have changed. Kind of squashes the feeling that a date is a compliment to the person being asked. As a woman if I ask a gentleman to do something I am neither desperate, trying to lable him, or paying off a previous date but I do think a little reciprocity is ok as relationships develope.

Sorry to dissappoint you! You didn't qualify who you wanted to respond to your post.

Maybe I am missing something but I thought the whole idea of presenting a post in open forums was for and open community to repond.

If you want new people to post in your forum you might want to not start with insulting those that have.

It is not that I don't want to make the effort (even a special effort) for a bonified date: which IMHO equals asking, or being ask, to enjoy an activity for a set period of time, light conversation with the display of normal courtesy.

But now a date can be anything from a pleasant date, to a full body mauling or worse, or to stick you with the bill, or to not even showing up or showing up so stoned, drunk, or actively mentally ill that self control is impossible.

The idea of getting to know someone has been traded in for indept inquirey to a person's complete social, financial, family, and sexual history.

The economy really has very little to do with it. What has more to do with it is there seems to be a pervasive idea that if one party pays for a date they are being used. The idea that people might take turns according to their means to express interest or even affection is seen as manipulation or being stuck with a loser.

I can swear like a salty dog if I am in a crowd that talks that way.

For my Mingle friends I try to keep it respectfuly PG13!

I tend to think blue language shows a lack of vocabulary. Be helpful if I was a better speller but four letter words really are not that challengeing.
