Can you be too picky when it comes to your love life? Someone said that to me today, and I have to tell you it offended me a little. I don't judge by looks (although a physical attraction is necessary for any relationship if you ask me) and I tend to go with my gut reaction to people. Is it my fault if most men I meet put me off in one way or another?
If they don't strike me as my type, then it's not going to happen! Then I get, "Dawn, you didn't even give him a chance!"
Why? I already know he's not my type....give him a chance for WHAT? I don't go around randomly screwing people I don't know, and if I don't think we're compatible then what's the point in forcing the issue?
Maybe I'm defective, but I prefer to believe I'm picky. I've been married twice, so I know I CAN love and care about someone....it's just a question of meeting the right one!
You can have fun with a wrong one I guess....but in the long run it does more harm than good in my opinion.
I get lonely like everybody else, but I'd rather have mister right than a long line of mister wrongs!!! And guys that come onto you strictly for your looks are most likely not going to be RIGHT.
RIGHT??
RIGHT????
sheesh.
I'm not going to lie, I get annoyed when I get rated less than a ten, because I think I do the best I can considering I don't know jack crap about computers....but honestly, and I have to ask myself, is it really that important? I know that I'm a pretty damn good individual, and I SHOULD feel pity for the people who nazi around this place exercizing their little "ratings systems" because obviously they have minimal lives and probably have to take crap from customers at Burger King all day.....fortunately, I am lucky enough to do what I want, when I want. I don't have to take orders from anyone. Maybe I should be a little more mature about things like this, because this place is not REAL LIFE. It's an online website, and I don't have to worry about "low ratings" in the real world.
Getting pissed off about other people's opinions is pointless....especially when you're being judged by little dots of light on a computer screen.
Still, I rate back what I get....I'm not THAT mature LOL;)
Well, I'm moving to Portland. It's sad for me, because I dearly love California, but it's going to be for the best. The economy is going better over there, and there are more opportunities. When you have kids, their well being takes priority over your own personal wishes....but I will be sad to leave the only place I've ever felt truly comfortable. I've been reassured many times that Portland is a very open minded and accepting city, and that's my main concern. I know what it's like to be "a weirdo" in the boonies, and it's not a pleasant thing. I want my boys to be able to express themselves in any damn way they want, you know? It's important to me that they do what they feel is right for them. Hopefully this will be a good experience.

I hope it is for you and your bosy. I grew up in Seattle, and while people in the NW are their own kind of stuck up- individuals run amuck. It's actually a funny kind of odd it creates, but one that is fairly accepting. My brother "Portlandbarfly" when he logs on is in portland... if nothing else you can always hit the mountains :)
One of my close male friends called me yesterday and said he needed to get away from his house for a while. I went to pick him up, and he said that he needed a ride to a buddy's house.
That's fine, I'm a good friend.
I asked him where I was taking him, and he gave me the directions. Not too far away, I don't mind at all.
I'm a good friend.
I asked him if he was going to hang out there for a while, and he looked at me for a long moment and then told me he wanted to be honest, he was going to buy some crank and get spun. I thanked him for his honesty, and told him he was an idiot.
I'm a good friend.
He had me take him to buy one of the few things on the planet that I completely disagree with and HATE WITH A PASSION and he KNOWS it.
He's a pretty shitty friend.
Nice, really nice.
Next time, he can walk.
I'M A GOOD FRIEND.
I just finished my vacation to Maui, and I can't express enough how GLAD I am to be home....it seems like my vacations turn out to be more stressful than my home life, which is a shame....but what can you really do? My best friend has been with her man for over 13 years, since SHE was 13, and they are planning to get married, although it keeps getting postponed. They are two of the unhappiest people I've ever seen together, and yet they stay together....and are planning to have a family soon.
I don't understand this.
If you're unhappy, then WHY STAY???
I was stressed to the point of hippie slapping.
Yes, I said hippie slapping.
I smacked up a hippie in Maui.
That's another story though.
But believe me, he DESERVED IT.
Unfortunately, he also liked it.
Yuck.
I'm sorry my friends aren't happy.
