Seems like not much in comparison to previous replies, but I remember the first time getting kicked in the nuts, during winter out on the playground in first grade. It’s odd how we remember some experiences VERY vividly.

It seems to me that I’m alone now partly because I would very much like to meet a woman in real life rather than through an app, but since single women here don’t actually get out and do a whole lot, it’s not likely to happen. I’ve tried a lot of different activities up here, and there’s that...

Some day I hope to experience that companionship. It’s really tough to find.

You’ve got better “considering” skills than I do. I really have to jot down the long list of crazy honeysuckle I’ve heard on first dates, then frame it and hang it somewhere prominent.

Every couple years I go on a date, and I end up being reminded why I don’t date. I’m really feeling that I’ll never find love, but may find community through my interests if I’m extremely fortunate. Anyone else feel that way?

That is certainly being a good friend then.

To the OP I can only say accept your perceived faults, and take the time to explore your interests. Even though the company of a really hip woman is a valid wish in life, if she’s not there, she’s not there. Better to spend time on your own interests and leave dating for later than to date a...

“Should add”. It’s real early here.

I should: or any book by Connie Willis.

That is a tough question. Just finishing a YA sci-fi novel I bought at a book fair many, many years ago. It’s “Invitation to the Game” by Monica Hughes. I’d choose that one for it’s emphasis on self improvement and the whole working as a team thing.

Thanks! I love learning new phrases. To the OP… try nudism. You’ll find yourself surrounded by really out of shape folks like myself, and you’ll feel great about the way you look!

Making the world a better place? Easy. Get involved. In the small corner of the world where I live, people don’t do much, if anything. Sure, they go shopping, or they go to sports bars, but in either case the few who still venture outside are peering at their phones. If I go to a park on a...

Social media and smartphones put an end to community.

You may want to check out some of the several websites that just list and describe hobbies. A few of them have sections for more frugal pursuits. Something may catch your eye!

Hi! Do you have any interests, hobbies, causes?

:-) I’ll have to let you know.

You know, I’ve never actually seen that show. Gotta head to the library sometime…

Sure! It’s using an old school dip pen to create letters, slowly and carefully, as an art form. This is approximately what we did today in class: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copperplate_script … and this is what I very much want to learn to do...
