So pleasant around here these days!

I was thinking just the same thing. I had been hoping after the election some of the animosity would abait but it seems some people just need some sort of bitterness to cling to in order to keep them going.

I don't know why anyone needs to justify their relationship (on or offline) to anyone here. If Lance wants to obsess about those relationships let him. I made the mistake of being kind to him and then letting him get to me when he said I'm looking for a stepdad. Some people just thrive on others' anger and misery. It makes me sad for him actually.

Lastly, happy birthday, Wings. You look beautiful. :rose:

The board is always different with Lance around. The posters who can't stand him or the threat he represents disappear and all that's left are usually those who don't have things to hide and/or just don't give a fig about his abuse.

It's amazing how certain people can completely change the tone of this place. And the election hasn't helped a whit.

Thank you, sweets, I appreciate it.
 
Too many fucking wackjobs coming too close to members of my family.

Fortunately, employees at Ohio State are well-drilled on how to deal with these situations. Until I'm told otherwise, I choose to blame Jim Harbaugh.

That's incredibly scary. Sorry that they have to go through this :rose:
 


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.




37' that's not even below freeing! Long sleeves and legs with a wind breaker jacket will suffice along side long fingered gloves. Wear too much and you will sweat yourself into a chill.

37 is not cold. It's maybe a bit cool but hardly cold!

I certainly sounds like they handled the situation well. I'm glad your family members are all safe.
 
First of all
Happy Birthday, Wings!!!

:eek: I might appreciate some style help later this week.
Sure, i can help. I am pretty good at that. I usually don't bother about it for myself but I have a good eye.

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.

I figured if Byron and I could survive 24 hrs in a room together without electricity, sex, alcohol, drugs, curtains or books, without one of us killing the other, we were probably good to go.

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! :D 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....

I think we could have done it and not many people seemed to notice when Byron unintentionally outed us or my byron inspired board meltdown.

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! ;)

It's more fun when you post as each other and no one knows :)

gladto hear you're starting to feeling better, noor, and happy belated wishes for your birthday! :kiss:

Thank you!

Brisk :)
 
Elle, or you could just ignore this advice.

I am with Wings. Go with what makes you happy. My ex-husband always disliked short hair. I don't think it has touched my shoulders in the 2+ years we have been divorced. I don't foresee me letting anyone dictate my hair length again. :)

But...isn't he still dictating the length of your hair?

No, because I only wore it long for him. I have always preferred my hair shorter and it was shorter when we met. I changed it for him. Now if someone (anyone) were to tell me they wanted me to have long hair I would remind them I had shorter hair when they met me and they are welcome to find someone who better suits their wants.
