Hello Bob, nice to meet you.  May I say - you have made many good points. Others lent a few decent hints, harsh as they appear.  
 
You are right about the demographics. Age, sex, population density, and the degree of commitment sought DO make a difference.
 
An about face - some of those who fit the above commonality may in fact also have a sunny, light hearted personality, good sense of humor, don't whine, and don't fold early.
 
ITA - there is no universal constant. ( kudos for that neat phrase !)
 
Your expression of caring is lovely. Please allow yourself to recieve as well as give.  You sound like a very nice man. 
(That photo of the blue heeler peeking through the bushes is precious) ~smile~  
 Do you fit in?   You are here.  Why not be different?
 
BTW - 50 women corresponded with you in 3 weeks?
Sir - you are scoring  high above the norm!
 


*blushing*

Thank you.

Being a writer in a text medium is not without its benefits.

And that picture is Noelle in the raspberry patch :-)
She was so sweet, she waited patiently for me to open the camera and take the shot.

It has been a pleasure to have met you, Leatherette :-)

Well said, LaTigresse.  I am also a private person who holds myself to high standards of keeping my drama out of
other people's lives.  While I might mention something which is emotional for me, I do not look for somebody else to take care of my stuff.

I make general posts, but a quick way to anger me is to discuss my private life without my permission.

Ah, so we are switching from the "majority/mainstream -cannot- be wrong" paradim to the "privacy is paramount" paradigm.

Perhaps someone can point to the detail I've provided that helped them correctly identify the individual I was thinking of?   (o.O)

But I doubt it.

The only ones who would know are the women who have done this to me, and what have I said to them other than how sad I am they didn't make it, how much I wanted to help?

I know, for the hard-hearts, that doesn't count for anything.

So tell me, o privacy advocate, what method would you employ to discuss a problem such that the individual involved cannot recognize him or herself, given the context you are discussing a problem?

Not discuss the problem at all?

Or just not in earshot of the individual in question?

What principle of privacy allows you to discuss someone else behind their back, but not to their face?

And if you cannot discuss it with anyone at all, how do you get help with a problem too big for you to solve alone?

As you can see, the "privacy is paramount" paradigm is a stack of cards. Doesn't take much to toss it down.

If by help you mean to have someone gag, bind, spank, slap, choke and fuck me then yeah, I need help.

Sinergy, you have a new nickname . . .




What I found the most curious was the poster took a response I made to somebody else as a personal and obstreperous attack on themself.  Furthermore, I dont even know this person, yet was asked to comment on their life and experience.

Do you know of any classes for telepathic communication, mind reading, and clairvoyance which would help me?

They used to call that "hijacking a thread", as I recall.

Oh, and Sinergy, love that "Deer-in-the-headlights" look. It is so you.

it's hard moving on after opening yourself emotionally on a level that you're connected with the other person. yes it's frustrating to have plans made and only to see them falter at the the last minute.

the important thing to remember it's not you ...it's them ...and it will get better in time.  wish i had more advice for you but have a *hug* from me to you.

And thus we've come full circle because it's fairly obvious that you have difficulty distiguishing the two.

Hugs are for sharing.

Stop in the name of love before you break my heart, think it over first.

Thats my advice.

And you would be bucking for head brat, I suppose.

You'll just have to battle it out with the rest of them in the mud pit, dear-heart. I don't do favouritism no matter how many times you parade yourself in front of me.

I didnt really see anything in the OP to warent this on slaught of sarcasm. The OP did wax a little poetic but thats hardly a crime. I guess i must have missed something...i'll have to go back and reread the OP, to see what it was in there that warranted 5 pages of this kind of back and forth.
