It's nothing to do with where u hang I have seen people and there relationships and how people are treated yh some women are just as bad men but coming out of a relationship which I was knocked about in I'm sure u can see we're in coming from and I'm not say all men are like that because there are some good ones

I like being single and have been for two years now. I've gone solo for longer than that in the past and so it really doesn't bother me. I'm used to it. I'm comfortable in my own skin. I enjoy my solitude and my own company. I like my own space. I love the sense of irresponsibility it gives you. You get a great sense of freedom when you're unattached. You're free to do whatever you want with whoever and whenever you want and don't have to seek permission from your significant other to do so. You can be totally selfish and not feel guilty about it.

There have been many times when I've been in relationships and felt kind of trapped. I get to feeling claustrophobic and I want break out and be on my own again and I've had to end things. Sometimes I've regretted that and sometimes it's been a relief to get away.

I love women and really enjoy their company. I count myself very lucky to have so many of them as my mates. I just can't really see myself settling down with anyone in particular. It's never really happened for me in that respect. Maybe that's my tragedy... or maybe not.

Love is a revolutionary act. It attacks the ego and in its highest form, is transcendental. Jah is speaking his own truth but missing out on a fundamental aspect of what it means to be human. We are social animals. The closer the bonds, the more challenged we are in resisting the ego.

That's very profound. I wouldn't say I'm missing out though. Depends on how your wiring's programmed.

    • Hello,  I feel as though our apartment is damp. I would like to borrow a dehumidifier to ascertain whether it is or not. Does anyone have a dehumidifier that I could borrow for a week?  thank you,    Brigid
    • Post much better this Xmas.  Sue posted about whether they send Xmas cards; how good the post is,  is relevant.  Think I will continue to stay off Instagram!
    • These have reduced over the years, are "perfect" lives Round Robins being replaced by "perfect" lives Instagram posts where we see all year round how people portray their perfect lives ?    The point of this thread is that for the last few years, due to issues at the mail offices, we had delays to post over Christmas. Not really been flagged as an issue this year but I am still betting on the odd card, posted well before Christmas, arriving late January. 
    • Two subjects here.  Xmas cards,  We receive and send less of them.  One reason is that the cost of postage - although interestingly not as much as I thought say compared to 10 years ago (a little more than inflation).  Fun fact when inflation was double digits in the 70s cost of postage almost doubled in one year.  Postage is not a good indication of general inflation fluctuating a fair bit.  The huge rise in international postage that for a 20g Christmas card to Europe (no longer a 20g price, now have to do up to 100g), or a cheapskate 10g card to the 'States (again have to go up to the 100g price) , both around a quid in 2015, and now has more than doubled in real terms.  Cards exchanged with the US last year were arriving in the New Year.  Funnily enough they came much quicker this year.  So all my cards abroad were by email this year. The other reason we send less cards is that it was once a good opportunity to keep in touch with news.  I still personalise many cards with a news and for some a letter, and am a bit grumpy when I get a single line back,  Or worse a round robin about their perfect lives and families.  But most of us now communicate I expect primarily by WhatApp, email, FB etc.  No need for lightweight airmail envelope and paper in one.    The other subject is the mail as a whole. Privitisation appears to have done it no favours and the opening up of competition with restrictions on competing for parcel post with the new entrants.  Clearly unless you do special delivery there is a good chance that first class will not be delivered in a day as was expected in the past.   Should we have kept a public owned service subsidised by the tax payer?  You could also question how much lead on innovation was lost following the hiving off of the national telecommunications and mail network.
