    Do you get angry at God or them?

    I don't know if it is God. I don't know who puts toxic people in my life. I try to get rid of people that are toxic, mean, etc... in my life. The thing that gets to me is circumstances that I can't control. When someone that is a fixture in my life, an important immovable fixture, associates...

    How many kids. . .

    I always wanted to have a huge family, with a lot of kids. God had a different plan and has only allowed one of my seven pregnancies to result in my beautiful little boy. Since my divorce, I have prayed that the man God would have for me would come with a bunch of kids, kind of silly I guess...

    For those of you who have used Eharmony (or maybe just online dating...)

    I haven't done that much online dating, but I have done a bit. I think that you cannot call someone you have never met your "boyfriend" realistically. I think that it is okay to talk to more than one person if you are not dating anyone in person. Like others have expressed, if you are...

    What do "I" expect when dating? Well, let me tell ya!

    I don't think that there is anything wrong with Ink's expectations. As far as paying, this is the South so maybe some of it is different but everyone who has taken me out has always paid. Now, in the case of my boyfriend, he always pays, but I will offer a lot of times to pay because I WANT...

    The dark..

    I agree with Lifewanderer. I used to have this same problem. It is true, very bad things happened in the dark, so we think that by avoiding the dark, we have some type of control. If it is light, then nothing bad will happen. I slept with the lights on for YEARS. Then one day I decided that...

    What is your relation to autism/aspergers?

    My five year old little boy is Autistic. I am blessed. I couldn't imagine being the parent of a "typical" child.

    Bad Habit

    I definitely have a constant mountain of clothes going. I procrastinate on some things badly. The things I don't procrastinate I am OCD about. I over-analyze quite frequently. I am too nice to people even if they are mean to me. I take "killing them with kindness" to the extreme and then...

    Flowers

    Me too!! Stargazer lily is my favorite. My wedding bouquet was all stargazers. The marriage didn't work, but the flowers were pretty, lol. Pretty flowers, Tink. Nothing like flowers to brighten your day!

    Confused about it

    I am a nurse as well and I have an ex-boyfriend who is an oncologist. He has brought up the same points when we have had this debate in our Bible study in the past. Glad to see I am not the only one thinking about the E.Coli either!

    Can a Wedding be Sinful?

    Wow Morning Glory, BEAUTIFUL pictures, and gorgeous wedding. I think that if you spend thousands of dollars on a dress and go into debt doing so, that is sinful. My wedding dress was on sale for $200. It was regular $1200! I would never have paid that! For me, that was a line though...

    Valentines Day

    Y'all are hilarious! As stated above, I am going to attempt sliding down a hill on a board in the freezing cold WITHOUT breaking my neck. GOOD TIMES. No, seriously, my boyfriend planned this awesome vacation for us and we will totally have a blast. I have never skied so I am excited about...

    just left my gal of 2 years. I feel guilty.

    Dude, he admits he waited too long to do it. I was just saying that maybe that is a major source of his guilt in this and that he needs to analyze WHY he waited so long so that he can avoid feeling this badly in the future or any UNNECESSARY hurt.

    just left my gal of 2 years. I feel guilty.

    I get why you broke up with her, what I don't get is the amount of time it took you. It seems from your story that you knew she would not be "the one" soon into the second year. Why did you wait? I am not criticizing you, I am just curious because I see that you did the right thing by...
