thank you Thrasymachus, perfectly said. my post menopausal mind just doesn't allow for such cool, rational thought processes any longer, I thank you for saying it in such a way that proves the point. obviously my tongue in cheek way of making just as many grand sweeping generalizations as...

LOL...... ya know? I will just keep throwing them at you, I just will..... because now you are just proving that other great generalization about ALL men....ALL men have to have the last word, ALL men believe they know it all. LOL....you are too funny, really. We can dance like this ALL day...

I just think there is an inherent flaw in any belief that says, "ALL cars break down, all younger women are about greed and using, all horses run fast..." you cannot put such grand sweeping generalizations out there because it stands to reason, there will be exceptions, every time, and in...

i personally feel we are brainwashed into thinking this way, that a life without love has no value..... another human being has to validate you. that we are not perfect and wonderful enough in our own right. and it's more than the double whammy of brainwashing if you are a female....we are...

it's the bottom line baby, that push to get out of the red and into the black... the powers that be, big brother, the gods of consumerism want us in the mood as soon as possible to start the spending mayhem, the gross disgorgement of green from our pockets into their greedy little...

that was yesterday. this is today. how much ya wanna bet there will be another good job opportunity somewhere down the road? how much ya wanna bet there will be at least one more party around the bend? disappointment sucks, it hurts, it is upsetting and it rankles our very innards..... one...

all my bad experiences with traveling happened in cars...so do I now take a bus everywhere? all my bad experiences with my health happened in a hospital.... so do I now only want to be taken to a outpatient clinic populated with even more hack doctors with caribbean degrees? all my bad...

ongoing rejection? on a dating site? like, is that a reality to you? that website has become some litmus test for legitimacy? Come on!!! As a mature woman, you MUST have noticed the completely shallow nature of 98% of the profiles...gag me with a spoon, if I have to read one more banal...

well forgive me.... i thought the focus of this whole website was loneliness and i didn't realize that loneliness and the causes, the effects were religion orientated. It just felt like a very prejudiced statement. and then i actually noticed the title of this forum, networking. forgive an...

i had to get away from that one person who kept reminding me we create what we experience, what we attract..... it annoyed the hell out of me to be told that me, my thoughts, are creating the misery I am in.....I don't know if it's true or not but i do know that it probably doesn't help that i...

yeah, that's the way to think, only a fellow christian would have anything of value to offer, to share, to help.... how 'bout this, all us pagans, jews, buddhists, taoists and muslims will now leave the forum and you can leave to go wallow in pain over at a cyber dating site where you can search...

ugh, crabs are mean little critters, just nasty nasty nasty angry all the time, must be all that molting..... it's all about the head baby, all about the grey matter.... it's so much more meaningful to actually converse and pick another's brain...howya gonna sustain a relationship with anyone's...

isndt there something called social anxiety disorder? I mean, some people are just wired differently, not able to cope .... sometimes they are born without the right chemicals flowing in their brain to process social situations, sometimes a traumatic event will precipitate developing anxiety...

hell, i am a very fear based person, i am not good at this at all, i really am not one to rush headlong into a fearful situation...the things you mentioned, a bee showing up, a strange noise in the night, singing when alone, those are transitory fears that come and quickly go..... not exactly...

getting out of myself helps, focusing on others, even as stupid as just posting here, hopefully something I say is one small candle in the darkness
