ANY the fact I wS born a bit of a tart

what flavour?

morning

had an email from the embassy and my appointment is still jan 10th, not expedited, but a notarised statement of intent to marry from H will be enough to extend the original petition expiry date... which was dec 8th. thank goodness we don't have to 'start from scratch'!

Here's harrys chance to escape!

 

[butters]

all the flavours. . Cannot choose one! You have seen me and choice!

Fwiw, I baked pies. But didn't eat any

Date moving forward is sensible. Thank goodness.

all the flavours and then some

i know! still, there's great satisfaction to be had from creating them and seeing them enjoyed by your guests. sent H the brining recipe - he's thinking of trying it out over xmas.

tell me about it we'd both already had to include statements of intent in our applications, but for the purpose of extending H just has to do another and get it notarised. not a big deal after everthing else we've got past this year

Seeing as you two havent really spent any time together in person, this would be a good time for harry to come to his senses.

I mean, really.

Hi Elle

I finished watching Gilmore Girls and was not impressed. To start with - practically everyone was unhappy or dealing with some sort of turmoil. It was kind of exhausting. When I learned Logan's role in the plot I remember cringing at the thought of them taking the story line where they eventually did (with those 4 final words). It just seems embarrassingly predictable and lazy and I think Sherman-Palladino could have done so much better. There were some really lovely parts. I loved Emily's development post-Richard. That was just so satisfying to see. Loved the scene where she blew off the D.A.R. <3 I had really hoped that Sookie's cameo would be really happy but instead they just gave us Manic Stressed-Out Sookie. True to her character - but it seemed to fall far short of that Big Love the girls had for each other. Having watched it all now, I think maybe I've had enough.

 

[Lancecastor]

Have you and butters spent much time together in person? If not what makes you think Harry needs to come to his senses? Why would you know better? I guess they spend more time together through this medium than you do with either of them?

These are all excellent discussion points!

The GB has a lonnnng history of internet romances gone terribly sour....fake suicides, marriages torn asunder, laptops stolen.

"All harry has to do is provide a notarised document of intent.", she proclaims on the GB.

Oh, is that all? (Smiling)

if he's smart, he's comparing butters with other mail order brides right now.

Aren't there lots of successful relationships here too? I wish all the lovers good luck and happiness.

Hey we all want the best for everyone... but a relationship built on internet love letters , while romantically charged, is no guarantee of truth.

It would be best for each of them to spend 6 months less a day* in each other's community in separate residences, to see if they can be a couple for a year with no computers, face to face. Then they could marry or not.

That would be a responsible, loving way to explore marriage/life partnership, do you agree?

*brits and americans can spend up to less months less a day in each others country via a simple tourist visa.

There were some fantastic displays! I recall being both fascinated and horrified, never having witnessed such public breakups before. We were all fed incredibly detailed information about the posters involved, that's for sure! I was involved with a Litster for a decade, lived together for 8 years. I couldn't tell you how, but we somehow managed to make it work without outing ourselves here. It's a real chin scratcher....

oh bless, is he still jumping up and down begging attention?

poor sad, defunct, ignored little lance maybe he'll grow out of being such a dipshit and find someone who can pt up with his crap, or even fall in love with him for himself. yeahhhhhhh... call me an optimist.

 

[Tinkersquash]

What relationship does guarantee truth? Plenty of 'real life' ones involve deception. In our real life relationship G and I moved in together after the fourth date, facilitated by the fact it did not involve financial entanglement. Previously i had known a partner for three years before living predominantly only with them.....that was the only NOT great relationship I have had.

What works for people depends on who they are and how well they know themselves, what they want and what they expect probably. I think if you expect perfection you are doomed

Hi tink my sweet! I am glad we are not keeping our mutual admiration hush hush. I am getting that midget in the bed though....you wait and see.

If it works - it works! And I can see the appeal of having a relationship front and center so you can post together as well as with mutual friends. I can think of some posting couples who were a blast to see posting together and in that way, I benefitted from their openness.

post script: You'd better choose which half of the bed you would like pre-warmed. The top half or the bottom half. He can't be in two places at once!

I'm glad you're not taking it personally, but as you know, I like to discuss GB relationships, always have.

I'm just saying that if I were Harry's real life on the ground long time buddy, this would be a prime time to check in with him as his friend and remind him he is swearing an Oath to the US Government about taking marital and citizenship responsibility for someone he really doesn't know very well at all.

I think that makes this a responsible and reasonable topic for discussion.

If you want to make it a Drama...that's for you and your other "internet besties" here to decide.

Me, I'm quite capable of discussing things dispassionately.

No. You have passion for other people's passion.

Mmmkay. It's 37° out there and today will see a continuance of the cold weather bicycling experiment.

I've slowly accumulated clothing and gloves that, in theory, should allow me to ride for four or five hours.

A little caution has to be observed. Should I get a flat tire, I have doubts whether I'll be able to change a tube or a tire (for the simple reason that I think my hands and fingers would likely be too cold to function). That means that I need to be certain to allow enough time before dark to return to the starting point should Murphy intervene.

[IrezumiKiss]

tart from scratch?

This is a good play on words that shouldn't go to waste. I'm nicking it for future use.

 

[Lancecastor]

No. You have passion for other people's passion.

That's incorrect, but then again, you have no way of knowing one way or the other beyond applying your own standards to my screen text.

And that's my point...if you look at any of these situations without an erection, chances are you'll see lots of behavior patterns worthy of genuine discussion.

The fact that you're defensive about it amplifies the point.

Hey, I get it...I'm one of the only people in our community saying: "Whoa...is this really a good idea, Harry?"

You came to Lit after allegedly escaping an abusive marriage and immediately started your manhunt.

And you're not alone; lots of women come here to escape or end their marriages.

90% of your posts are you focusing on Lit relationships. You go ahead and tell me which points that amplifies, lance.

And the only reason these relationships are worthy of any discussion at all is because you give them worth. Like all the worth. You're welcome for the erection.
