1. No, not really
unless of course you develop a more positive attitude. :)

Lotsa guys say the same thing to me... though they also say I often have a positive attitude...


But if you did care, you could pull a cheney on me! :spray:

17. May I ask for a hint? About how to undo 33 years of damage...
people have given me? You have no idea, the fear and intimidation I feel... which in turn affects them... which in turn has them doing things that only scare me back into my little sardine closet. The same one I'm trying to get away from.

2. The end of what?
What the hell are you so afraid of and is that fear serving you in any way? You really need to get your emotional shit together before you'll be ready for a relationship.

9. Well, if you really want to know what I am so afraid of...
Edited on Wed Feb-15-06 08:40 PM by HypnoToad
PM me.

You really are right, BTW. I do need to get my emotional shit together...

But I'm hardly saying I don't have serious issues... indeed, you have no idea... :) :( what I am saying, is that I am lucky to be stable and productive to have a decent job... and even then I still have some issues, and I'm grateful to have co-workers decent enough to at least try and tolerate my encumberances. Amazing, that... maybe if I paid a person for a relationship! :think: :D

But even I am conscious enough to acknowledge what I'd have to say would inevitably cross the boundries...

3. Honey, I've been married for almost 18 years
we lived together 5 years before that. I STILL don't get my S.O.
But we deal with each other; and the worst times are no worse than the best times are good. :hug:

10. Is your social scene a place that you normally meet people?
Where do you go when you go out, what do you do? Sometimes when you stop looking thats when you find someone.

16. Possibly.
Possibly not.

Never easy to tell, the future...

The only difference is, I know certain corporeal statistics between then and now...

18. SURE! All you have to do is DROP the ellipses
because they do not connote "mystery"; they annoy people. Ellipses are for princessy drama-queen stuff, not tangiable thoughts like you have to offer us. Never say "tho", and never post in lower-case "I".

:D

In other words, YES, but you have to follow my rules.

I'd feel like the Magic Eight Ball making any kind of other reply to your post, but I do believe in hope.

20. Don't know, but I don't think any snarky comments are going to help you.
Edited on Wed Feb-15-06 11:09 PM by elshiva
What I think is that you have interesting posts and great siglines. :)

24. HypnoToad, with one as smart, funny, and true as you,
it's stupid NOT to love you. And I'm not one to be nice to make someone feel good, it's true.

*COUGH* You're my secret DU crush.... don't tell anyone.... I don't care what you are or who you are, you're special and funny, a true light in the world.
