Relationship Rant Thread

I told you I was easy. You know what to do. If you haven't been getting attention, you have no one to blame but yourself. :yeaaa:

I do like it. You just had it done?

I may not understand it. I was thinking it was sad. I was going to ask you if anything was going on....

 

Yeah, but the "Look what I can do!" was beginning to tire me, too.

C is is a hairstylist. She wants too take it all off.

Yes, it does sound sad. It's supposed to to talk about a sense of self. Little guys don't have that.

It came to me while I thinking about the dividing line between psychology and sociology.

 

Ouch.

Maybe none of us do.

I decided, after constantly not fitting in the box, and getting tired of trying, and being way tired of being told that something was wrong with me because I wouldn't stay or fit in that box, that my identity was in the ways I was different from others, not how much like them I was. Of course, this isn't completely true...but it makes me feel better about myself.

I wouldn't change the phrasing. I like it the way it is. Just saying.

 

Identity is also in the ways you are the same.

Newborn guys have very little of anything. Then they start recognizing you, before they can even smile. But there's no "me" yet. Later, before they can talk, there's something where they separate themselves, as something special, from everything else. The hook that the rest of the identity hangs on. That's the "I" that I mean. The one that isn't there sometimes when you meditate.

Funny, thing. Even though there's know "me" yet, teeny-tiny guys still get lonely.

 

For me, it is a lot easier to feel like I am part of a group if that group has accepted me for (or in spite of?) my differences. That hasn't happened very often.

They can recognize voices in the womb. And they also recognize smell -- practically from the beginning (after being born).

Twins have such different behaviors that I wonder what else is learned in the womb. You can place them a couple of feet away from each other on a bed (from birth), and in a very short time, they will be touching each other. It is really quite incredible.

Do go into this further.

 

You are too funny, sometimes. :biggergri

Heh. I have been well-trained. By a master.

Moi? How so?

 

Sorry, I had to step out for some karate.

The first time I picked up my son, he was asleep. As I lifted him his head tipped forward onto my shoulder, keeping me from moving him into the right position. So, I said "Hi, there!". His eyes opened, he lifted his head off my shoulder, turned it, and looked right at my face. Needless to say, I was stunned. They definitely recognise voices.

G, the ex, used to come in the room, hold her stomach and say, "He's kookin'! He hears your voice!". He would poke my hand on her belly. Once, she was laying next to me, and he pushed out and touched my side. The kid owned me before he was born.

I've held many upset babies on my chest, and they'll calm down and go to sleep. Their mother's heart is the first thing they ever hear.

 

At the risk of pointing out the obvious, if a nice lady bares her behind and leans forward, ever so slightly, then turns her head torwards me and smiles, while I would definitely take that as a most charming invitation, it might not be smooching that occurs to me first.

For example, if she's been "naughty"... :eyebrow:

 

If your intentions are what I think they might be...insofar as I am concerned (if, that is, I was the nice lady you mention)...you had better be darn busy first. In a passionately romantic way. (I am being deliberately subtle here.)

 

Liar, liar. (Won't let me do less than 10 letters!?) You aren't fooling me.

AND you do have permission, you know.

 

Well...it is sad in some way...he's even get a tat :shame:

:twitch:

:yikes:

After reading the above, i would be very careful if i where you.

The Brokeback forums, where people likes to wear hats, and...well, uh...ride.

 

Always (unless she has other ideas). That sort of thing, by itself, is a lot of fun. (If I get your meaning.) :gotmyatte
