Too Cute...
 

Well, blushing makes you look alive!

Okay .... so it's time for some disclosure here.


I've fallen in love with a lady I met on this site a few months ago. When I say "met", I mean talking by phone and skype and regular texting.


At first, I wasn't too interested as she wasn't much of a looker but, slowly but surely, I realised that basing a relationship on looks only was superficial. There are more important things a partner can bring to my relationship such as cooking and managing the domestic arrangements of the home too and, if she can do all that well, the looks aren't that important to me. As a bonus, she also has a nice personality.


I do think it's love - there's a real connection here and we're talking for hours at a time online. Being honest, we need to talk for hours to have a productive conversation - it takes a long time for her to understand what I'm saying and sometimes I've started drifting off to sleep by the time she's finished her sentence in that slow drrraaaaaawwwwwwwlllllllllllllllllllll.


I'm not getting any younger and Violet Crawley never responded to my love notes on her facebook fanpage. Therefore, this lady represents a good option for married bliss. I've quit my job and am moving to the States to be with her. I'm not certain that getting a banking job in the city is feasible (the nearest city is over four hours drive away) so not sure what I'll turn my attention to. I'm thinking of retraining to become a Positivity Counselor, given my cheerful disposition on life.


My future wife still lives with her mother but that's okay - her mother seems quite nice and I'm wondering as to the possibilities that all three of us could end up on Jerry Springer at some future stage. Don't laugh - it's on my bucket list.


I'm moving over later this month and we're then turning our attention to wedding arrangements. I'm confident that the wedding will be a great event as my future wife has extensive experience at arranging weddings given she's already been married four times. Three of her ex-husbands "disappeared" in the woods behind her house shortly after initiating divorce proceedings but I'm told it's just a sad coincidence - on the bright side, it meant she got to inherit their full estates.


The slight sensitive topic is the wedding itself. As a traditionalist, she believes that the bride should wear a white dress but, as she's been married so many times before, she doesn't think it's appropriate for her to do so. Therefore, she's increasingly insistent that I wear a white wedding dress. This wasn't really how I imagined my ideal wedding to be but, sometimes in life, compromise is necessary. In any event, it will give me a chance to also wear a tiara - something I've always wanted to do.




Happy April 1st y'all ;)

I had to phone Mrs Brown and tell her you have forsaken her.

She's a gorgeous woman and has nice taste in underwear.

I'd make a move on her - but for the fact that she's wearing a pink cardigan.

There's only room for one of us to be a pink cardigan-wearer in any of my relationships and I don't give up that privilege for anyone, no matter how alluring they are.

*snicker*
 

Yup, serious crush here. Major, heavy, delicious crush. Feels delightfully weird to have a crush at this age. :D (Hy will laugh when Hy reads the reference to my age.....thinks I'm "so young"! Pffft.). And yes, Hy knows and the crush is quite mutual. (Insert big obnoxious sigh here)

Katniss~~(is it wrong to want to sneak up behind the dude and pop a balloon?)

Nah, go ahead and pop the balloon. Sometimes they need that. :D

I have a huge Crush on a alluring, charming, delightful and beautiful YOUNG femme. I got it BAD for someone so GOOD. I feel that this young ravishing and exquisite femme will be just right for this ole dog. woof woof

Well this one in a no-brainer...
 

Hurrah for DJ Bear and Library_girl! You two didn't even make that one difficult to figure out. :detective:

Now, what happy couple is next please? Nosey folks want to know :giggle:


Katniss~~(where did all the regulars in here go? Sheesh...get a crush, find out they crush you too and off they go with never a backward glance....ingrates)

LOL! Well I think I have had crushes like this before.

As someone with both acrophobia and aviophobia, crushing is much better. ;)

Katniss~~(Time...the great equalizer....)

Hawt
 

I sure hope so, in my case *G

Until now, I'd never considered the tax man in a romantic context. But, you know, maybe I shouldn't be so closed-minded.


At least he wouldn't be all smiley and full of the joys of life. Come to think of it, this could have some merits .............. plus, maybe more chance of a tax rebate if I keep him satisfied.

I remember this...
 

I remember when this photograph hit the internet years ago. I never thought someone could make this final embrace ugly. Why am I not surprised?

These lovers were found in an Italian archeological dig if I remember correctly. It speaks volumes to those of us who believe in soul mates, forever loves, cosmic connection.

It gives me pause. We read about couples that die within days or hours of each other, unable to bear the loss of the other. We dream of a lover who would die without us in their lives, or our death without our vital other half.

I am not offended by your post Katniss. It brought back a warm wonderful feeling from long ago, so I thank you for posting it today. It just seems sad that someone found it amusing. How cynical.

I find it beautiful. Some people are able to find that love :)

ms texas, when can we meet this sewww hawttt? lol

Even in death....
 

Reminds me of what I used to explain to my ex who had/has this incredible fear of death so intense that she'd have panic attacks at the thought of it:

I hope I die one second after you, holding you, so you don't have to leave this world alone, so you pass safely in my arms, knowing you were held and sincerely loved and treasured, knowing I was there for you. But I do hope that I die one second-- just one second-- after you do so I don't have time to "miss" you, to process it, to suffer the loss of not having you in my world.

Yeah, I believe she meant time ,here on earth, as the equalizer for these lovers. I will go so far as to include this picture as I would propose that she shares the same sentiments as you; That love continues after our time here on earth.

"Lovers of Valdaro"
 

I also remember when this first came to light and the Hallmark-esque feelings it seemed to elicit around the globe. I also remember finding it interesting that the assumption was of two lovers entwined when it just as easily could have been two people trying to throttle one another in anger, a man confronting his cheating wife and trying to kill her (a single skeleton was found nearby but this was a communal burial area so no telling) or any other less than savory demise of these two. What has come to light since the unearthing is the skeletons were male and female, under 20 years of age, and they did not die a violent/trauma death. According to Professor Silvia Bagnoli who lead the research team it is most likely they died of extreme cold. Additionally they did not die in that particular embrace as the bodies were positioned that way at the time of burial. I suppose since we don't know the truth we may as well add some romance to it. (shrug)

The real reason for my response to the post is I want to go on record that I abhor the thought of "a lover who would die without me in their life." Frankly I don't need that kind of pressure. It also smacks of a potential murder-suicide we see on the nightly news when one lover wants out of the arrangement and the other does not. If I do have a soulmate I would be grievously disappointed if they stopped living because I had passed on. There is too much love, joy, hope and beauty in this world to pin it all on one person. I also hope any potential soulmate knows that I am not sitting on my arse waiting to be rescued or "completed" as my life is already pretty freaking fabulous and full of love, joy and really cool activities and people. Matter of fact it will take a hella' special someone for me to want to make time to add them to my life. Because they would be an "addition" and not a "completion." Would I like to meet my "one and only?" Sure! Is it necessary to do so in order to have a full life? Nope, not for me at least. But if/when I do I would never look back at my single friends and think they are less "complete" or missing a "vital other half" just because they are single.

I've been on my soapbox too long and don't want Wolfy to chase me out of this thread. So I will also raise a glass of moscato tonight and toast true love, no matter how absent, fleeting or time enduring.

Katniss~~(but if depth of love is in direct correlation to time of death as a couple....should I meet my soulmate I plan to keep her healthy as hell for as long as possible!)

Dear Crush...

Got handcuffs?
 

Yeah, she never notices me though. Probably blinded by my pure awesomeness.
