    People Similar to you -really?

    I think it depends on the differences. In retrospect pretty much everyone I have ever been friends with has been very different from me in a lot of ways but there are some key ways we are alike. I confess to be entirely intolerant of close contact with people with certain views ie: if...

    What Is Your Personal DNA Test

    you are a reserved inventor Your imagination, self-reliance, openness to new things, and appreciation for utility combine to make you an INVENTOR. You have the confidence to make your visions into reality, and you are willing to consider many alternatives to get that done. The full spectrum...

    Have your opinions changed?

    Absolutely. I don't see how one couldn't change at least some views over time as you mature and/or new evidence presents itself. Change is the only thing that is constant.

    Meeting people through clubs or classes

    Going to finally go ahead and take the Master Gardener course this coming fall. Mostly so I can find an outlet for obsessing about plants and soil and also to find victims to pawn off rare seeds on who will actually grow them out. Finding a friend would be nice but based on the local...

    Artificial Intelligence your thoughts?

    There's been a lot of talk about this in the news recently....you can google comments made by Stephen Hawking, Elon Musk, Bill Gates on this subject. All three of them seem very worried by it. Personally my views are mixed. As a human I lean towards wanting to remain and remain dominant but...

    Married+Good friends but still lonely

    Thank you for posting this. I had been thinking much the same (do I belong here?) because I am also happily married, have at least a few close friends though none local etc and for me add the fact that I'm older than the great majority here. Nothing against younger people at all...my "BFF" is...

    Online Friends

    Aside from the casual interest-based sort of things I only really talk to 2 people, my husband and a longtime (over a decade now) online friend. Still have a few old old friends from childhood I talk to now and then but much as I still love them our lives went in very different directions so I...

    Gift Giving

    Totally. Problem pretty much solved in my family though, we all only get gifts for the children and then I randomly give a gift when I find something I know so-and-so just has to have. I love to gift but hate the forced nature of "occasions". I also do not want or expect gifts for...

    Do you like human beings?

    Makes the rest of our problems seem quite small :(. As for the original question, in aggregate no, not really but some do manage to transcend what seems to be our inherently predatory nature.

    Imaginary friends?

    Currently have 3 dogs, 5 cats, a pig, several chickens and 4 goats.....if an imaginary friend would help out with chores I say bring it.

    Just a little rant

    Yes and no. *Usually* it's been more a case of I felt more strongly about the friendship than the other party did...I've found many people have their own agendas for why they wish to be ones' "friend" so if the agenda changes or you don't meet the requirements for whatever reason they fade...

    What is the craziest thing you`ve done?

    Sold my house and everything I owned, quit my job of 20 years, packed what I could fit into my car and along with my dog and drove around the country (us) for a few months.

    Does Facebook make you feel lonelier?

    I use it mainly as a newsfeed to follow things that interest me and for a few gardening/seed trading groups I belong to. I don't really communicate with most people outside of those groups much so no, it doesn't. Oh and it's a handy place to stash my photos. It has its uses but I've never...
