getting to know you..... Give me ONE ........ - Page 17

Consumption of alcohol or alcoholism has no place in my life anymore. I attend Al-anon, I have a sponsor in the program too. Alcohol does nothing for me. I used to partake of alcohol on rare occasion, maybe once a year, an casual sip at a social function, but alcoholism is prevalent in my family. My dad was an dry alcoholic, his behaviors were atrocious, my youngest son is an alcoholic, but I don't suffer from alcoholism except to say I suffered far too long with members of my own family who are alcoholics, and alcoholism. I won't date or even partner with anyone who is an alcoholic. I won't even date or partner with anyone in recovery.

Most people from the "old" chat room know that I'm not a fan of company!

I don't mind if they come to visit and stay at a hotel, that works for me

I truly dislike use of the words: bitch, slut, lady, and classy.

The first two because they are used to degrade women ( no matter how playfully used) even, and maybe particularly, by women.

The second two because they are essentially meaningless beyond the 19th Century and always used by the wrong people.

I am extremely private about my life off of the site.

Too much noise overwhelms me. It hurts my nerves, if you know what I mean. I love music and I even play it loudly every once in a while. Then I need silence. Sweet silence. At least for a short while.

Offline, I am a recluse. Well, my partner claims that in order to be a recluse, it means that you're hiding from something. I rarely exit my apartment except for errands. She calls me a "hermit."

Also, rarely talk on the phone. In fact, don't even have one. Communicate almost exclusively by computer.

this is me!

Most introverts are rarely lonely. I am OH SO happy right here in my happy little home playing online and entertaining myself. When i go out, i just can't wait to get home. Its my happy place.

I do not like to speak on the phone either!!!

Need someone like you in life. Can be somewhat cluttery. Am organized though scattered.

I love Winter...will hate to see it go (got more snow coming, YAY).

Soft*Silver · 03-31-2017, 11:20 PM

I too am getting to be a recluse. I rarely go out except for my grand daughter, some errands and work. Tomorrow I am going out with my best friend for the first time in over a year. She lives only10 minutes from me!

When i was younger I had many social occasions I enjoyed. A night with the symphony. Rodeos. Shopping sprees. Parties. You name it, I loved going to it. And I was quite the extrovert.

As I age, I am finding a quiet center, and a need to nest within my own small space of a life. I have a HUGE life, but compared to the great world out there, it is just small. I wouldnt say I am an introvert but I no longer want that exposure and attention.

Mel C. · 04-01-2017, 12:59 AM

I don't eat hot food (see previous post regarding not liking soup) or drink hot drinks. No

I've never had gazpacho but I have had pear soup which was served cold and was delicious.

I was in accident when i was in my early 20's and i saw my life flash before my eyes. It was a short film but wow it happened!

Chad · 04-01-2017, 04:50 PM

I have always been the same person that I am now. From my earliest memory I have known who I am. When I was in second grade I had three girlfriends. Haha!

Being me is not always easy but atleast I know who I am.
