Should a Man Defend His Significant Other Against Insults From His Family? I say "YES>"

BudFrank comments on Oct 24, 2018:

Yes!!

The truth is, none of us are easy to date ?☺??

BudFrank comments on Oct 24, 2018:

Agreed!!

How far, realistically, would you go for a relationship?

BudFrank comments on Oct 24, 2018:

One hour’s travel for a relationship where we see each other more than once a week. For initial contacts on possible relationships I’d go 100 miles or more. I have the advantage of being retired and living in a travel trailer so I could move closer to my beloved if it gets serious

I'd like make a friendly suggestion all the male-people who want chat with female-people on this ...

BudFrank comments on Oct 24, 2018:

I believe a reasonably short hi message is not the equivalent of a wolf whistle. Some of us are not a socially adept as others. I personally do try to connect more than just hi, but I don’t see that as obnoxious. A better word would be a little awkward. Actually I find the comparison to a wolf whistle to be offensive. I would never do that, but I have initiated conversations with short intros.

Hi everyone.

Survivors guilt? You survivors Christianity

Regarding my previous post about unrequited relationships [agnostic.

BudFrank comments on Oct 24, 2018:

It is not a bad thing to be sensitive. You do have to protect yourself a little better though in this case. I am there myself

Please share stories about unrequited love.

BudFrank comments on Oct 23, 2018:

There was a woman I really liked. We did things together and I thought things were going well, until I said something about us dating. She responded that we weren’t dating we were just hanging out. This kept up for more than a year. New Year’s Eve she invited me over. At mightnight we actually had a kiss. For a couple of weeks things seemed to be moving along. But then she drew away. Finally we had “the talk” that she wasn’t interested and she totally even. Broke off the friendship. No happy ending. That’s been almost a year and a half.

"At 17" by Janis Ian -- this song came on the radio a little earlier and I started to cry.

BudFrank comments on Oct 23, 2018:

I felt that as a guy too. I was the proverbial 97 pound weakling at that age.

What is it about a woman's boobs that men (and some women) find so attractive?

BudFrank comments on Oct 23, 2018:

I had a girlfriend tell me once, “it’s all interconnected internally.” That’s from her perspective. I find the softness of the breast comforting (left over from childhood). The nipple when it’s hard reminds me of the clit, or maybe it’s the clit that reminds me of the nipple. Like I said it’s all connected.

I haven't had sex in so ???

BudFrank comments on Oct 23, 2018:

I’d take that in stride, just like I would do with a fart.

Close your eyes and see from the heart ❤❤❤

BudFrank comments on Oct 23, 2018:

What the heart sees will be more lasting in the long run.

Tiz the season!

BudFrank comments on Oct 22, 2018:

Yeah. I feel that sometimes too

Maybe we need to quit putting sociopaths in power

BudFrank comments on Oct 22, 2018:

Politicians are pretty much power hungry by definition. Unfortunate but true.

Thoughts on marriage : There seems to be many in the community who are anti marriage.

BudFrank comments on Oct 22, 2018:

Some people stay in a bad marriage just because it’s so hard to get out and it has a negative connotation. In a non-marriage relationship, people sometimes stay too long, but you stay because you’re committed to the person and not because of a piece of paper. I’ve been married twice: 35 years and nine months. The second one had anger issues and I learned enough from the first to get out more quickly. I don’t plan to marry again, but if the right person comes along I would consider it.

"Finding Yourself" is not really how it works...

BudFrank comments on Oct 22, 2018:

Exactly!

Size matters, especially when it comes to condoms. [lgbtqnation.com]

BudFrank comments on Oct 22, 2018:

I would use a smaller one. I’ve looked in the past. Maybe it’s time to look again

Can you answer without using a family member.?

BudFrank comments on Oct 22, 2018:

Oldest continuous friend is from 10 years ago. Pamela (not Pam, as my ex found out) has been supportive through a difficult divorce. We only met once a few years ago. She’s in Florida and is married.

What are three words you wish you heard when you were younger that you tell yourself now?

BudFrank comments on Oct 21, 2018:

“I love you.” And a close second would be “I accept you (as you are).”

Aside from this site, what are other good online dating sites??

BudFrank comments on Oct 20, 2018:

I have been out there for several years and still not found the best relationship, may not be the best resource for this. I do like OkCupid. They have A lot of questions you can answer that will help fine-tune your choices and other people understanding you, including religion

Now that the Mega Millons is officially over 1 billion dollars for the jackpot, if any of you won ...

BudFrank comments on Oct 20, 2018:

I would form a trust, and share control with my kids and a few close friends. I would a reasonable income and invest the rest. I would make significant donations to the Red Cross

What is LOVE?

BudFrank comments on Oct 19, 2018:

Love is complicated. It is a spontaneous feeling. It is also a choice: a choice to spend time with someone else, to prioritize them, to use whatever your love language is ( and what you oercieve theirs is if you think in those terms) to give to them. Sex may come and go, although it tends to bring a couple together. He feelings may always be present. But a choice to make a person your priority can be lifelong.

I am back and I am an IDIOT. ?

BudFrank comments on Oct 19, 2018:

You look great!

How to you handle being single in a partnered world?

BudFrank comments on Oct 18, 2018:

I find this difficult too. When I got family reunions or weddings, it’s sad to be the only one of my siblings without a companion. Sometimes I’ve found a friend to take, but it’s often somebody different each time.

Happy humpday

Glad you’re out of that situation. Mine wasn’t as bad but still have issues.

When you were young?

After my older sister and I played around, I drew a picture of her “stuff” and gave it to a friend at school. He turned it into the teacher. She was Beulah displeased with me to say the least

BudFrank comments on Sep 9, 2018:

As a man I have been on a number of first dates where they were interested but I wasn’t. It goes both ways. It may be the law of supply and demand here, in the eyes of the two people. It is probably being more picky. It may also just be different criteria the two have.

[psychologytoday.com] Answers some questions some of us might have asked. Why do men betray?

BudFrank comments on Sep 9, 2018:

I saw and agree with an article I saw somewhere. whenever either side betrays it is because they want to renegotiate the agreement of the relationship. It is not satisfying for some reason and they cannot just talk about it for some reason. Personally I was stuck in a conservative Christian subculture hat wouldn’t even tolerate separation at one time. I betrayed by wife because I couldn’t stand the situation and wanted out. It got the desired result but it was more pain that if I had tackled it directly at first.

Time for sex

BudFrank comments on Sep 9, 2018:

It varies with the partner I’ve had (in not in a relationship right now). On the average 20 minutes for each.

Do you ever think it's appropriate for someone to give up on finding true love?

BudFrank comments on Sep 9, 2018:

I know some who have given up. Myself, I keep trying, and sometimes find interest, but I’m somewhat commitment-phobic and wonder if I’ll ever get into a satisfying relationship.

Continue the game with your name!

I know the feeling. I’ve been single for 8 years and finding a good match for religion, especially in the south, is very difficult.

What's the most unusual/unique place you've had a "romantic encounter"?

BudFrank comments on Jul 28, 2018:

I fingered my girlfriend while I was driving and got her off. We regularly had a spot just off a hiking trail in a state park. Also in my conversion van in a grocery store parking lot.

Do sacred sites move you?

BudFrank comments on Jul 7, 2018:

The architecture is often awe-inspiring, whether churches, cathedrals or ruins. I find it sad in churches of any type when people are worshipping, because I feel they’re grasping at straws that I tried in the past but no longer believe in, if I ever did.

Is there a difference between a southern atheist and a northern atheist?

BudFrank comments on Jul 3, 2018:

I have lived in the Bible Belt for most of my life. There are many churches, but also much hypocrisy. I think many southerners who turn against god do so In reaction to that. I don’t know about the northerners

There are a lot of factors that come into play. Age per se isn’t as important as a lot of other things: activity level, intellectual, spiritual and emotional compatibility.

Anyone's watching 2018 FIFA World Cup?

BudFrank comments on Jul 3, 2018:

I have a second home on my farm and I am thinking of making much needed repairs and then putting it...

BudFrank comments on Jul 3, 2018:

There are always risks for something like this, or for any business. Into me it depends on the amount of time and energy you are willing to put into it.
