'decent' is a fine start...
Good morning, Jeff
Oh I
love guys...
I do a lot better with men, it seems...women can be so 'king controlling and emotionally manipulative.
Men are more "live & let live" even though they can be mean as hell, inadvertently, through being clueless to understand what is 'really going on'.
Two women hate me. I''m not sure which one the most - one thinks I was seeking an 'inappropriate relationship with her husband' and one thinks my website is sending people to hell.
They probably would deny it. But I can tell.
Regarding the first situation...it was not my fault even though you might think so reading what I write around the place. At that time I wasn't doing that. My communication with that person was, like, what does this Bible verse mean? Or just stuff I'd say to anyone like "have a nice trip"

oh well. I just hope she'll realize eventually it never crossed my mind I was crossing a line

. I just avoid her now having had a series of unenjoyable interactions with her, at this point...
I don't expect the one who thinks I'm sending people to hell to start high-fiving me over it but at least she could set it aside and be decent to me...

I asked her for help the other day on the simplest thing and she politely lifted nothing to help whatsoever. thank you - NOT
The one who won't let me back in her Bible study doesn't hate me - she is simply too scared to look at herself to see anyone else clearly...
I don't hate women but I'm hetero...so I am looking for women to be friends purely in a non-sexual way.
But I'm also married so I'm not looking for sexual relationships with (other) men either.
I have most respect for people who don't take the easy way out in jokes by capitalizing on people being embarrassed over certain situations.
I.e. people who can be genuinely funny with no overt references to sex or nudity...that kinda thing...very subtle references are ok...fwiw my standard these days for jokes or not - which is often violated by Christian radio - is, don't talk about things my kid will ask about and I didn't really want to explain.

was trying to explain this week how babies get started. I kind of fudged it a bit...I genuinely didn't know how to answer "how does the man make it come out when he wants though?"
So I said "oh it's a thing grown ups can do but kids can't".
I'm pretty sure that's true since he's only 8 ;-)
It was becoming a bit necessary to talk about since he told his younger sister that a woman had to take a pill if she wanted a baby. That wasn't
really what I said.
So my husband asked if I had the 'talk' with the kids about this and when I said 'yes' he said, "Did you tell them that you take a pill to STOP pregnancy?" For heaven's sake...it's hard enough covering one or two basic things... {rolleyes} as if I want to get into the whole aspect of sex-for-not-baby-making-reasons...!!! Not with a 6 and 8 year old...not until it comes up anyway/naturally...
:-D
(Cmon, these things are hard to explain!!!)
love
Helen
