    I Might Lose a Friend Over This -- Soft or Crunchy Tacos?

    Nope.... You continue in adding words to the things I say. *sigh* You should really read what I say instead of assuming intent.

    I Might Lose a Friend Over This -- Soft or Crunchy Tacos?

    Telling people to stop drinking poison is not mean spirited....it's actually a kindness. Despite claims to the contrary.

    I Might Lose a Friend Over This -- Soft or Crunchy Tacos?

    Nope If you want something different then YOU have to do something different. Which is a truth you have been trying DESPERATELY to avoid.

    Seoulsearch Tries To Date Multiple People At Once -- Ending In Epic Failure!

    I think you just hit the nail squarely and drove it home in the hearts of many. There's a thousand miles of difference between being patient and "waiting on God/something". And then there's those who will blame anyone and everyone and anything on why they are alone. These are the ones...

    Seoulsearch Tries To Date Multiple People At Once -- Ending In Epic Failure!

    I wish I was the originator of the statement....but I heard it from another missionary at the time talking about someone on our team. (And she wasn't talking about me even though I felt like the odd man out with no skills to contribute....but I did actually to my surprise) Missionary work is...

    Seoulsearch Tries To Date Multiple People At Once -- Ending In Epic Failure!

    Again, I've said NOTHING SIMILAR TO THIS. STOP PUTTING EXTRA WORDS IN WHAT I POST. STOP PSYCHOANALYZING PEOPLE. You aren't any good at it. I am very happily married....I never thought that I would be....but I am...and I'm extremely grateful to God that I finally found the correct...

    Seoulsearch Tries To Date Multiple People At Once -- Ending In Epic Failure!

    Dating is an activity whose end goal is marriage. And the prima fascia evidence of your admissions is a failure in your endeavor of dating. I did NOT say that you did not have opportunities for marriage in your life.... Stop putting words in my posts that do not exist or psychanalyzing my...

    Seoulsearch Tries To Date Multiple People At Once -- Ending In Epic Failure!

    I just got a message from a friend from my "single again" days.... I "assisted" in helping her meet a man whom she married....and the message was sad...her husband, another friend of mine, has recently passed away from cancer. And my heart is crushed for her. She was a great friend I made on...

    Seoulsearch Tries To Date Multiple People At Once -- Ending In Epic Failure!

    well Well Well After reading this post.... It's obvious to me why you had a colossal failure in dating..... And why you really shouldn't "date" more than one person at a time. Make friends instead. Friend zone EVERYONE. Sure hugs can be just fine. Maybe a kiss on the cheek. But...

    Do Our Hobbies Contribute to Over Consumption and Excess Waste? (And If So, What Can We Do About It?)

    It's a whole 12 step program.... I haven't exactly gotten very far into the program....I'm only getting to the first step before I have a relapse and backslide down. I can't seem to get out of the kitchen for very long.

    Do Our Hobbies Contribute to Over Consumption and Excess Waste? (And If So, What Can We Do About It?)

    I'm a recovering chef. Worked in some of the top restaurants with some Michelin boys and ran kitchens(country clubs) of my own. Also was a partner in a bakery where my partner was just money. I had the talents he had the money. I say I'm in recovery but.... Well there's a lady's luncheon...

    Do Our Hobbies Contribute to Over Consumption and Excess Waste? (And If So, What Can We Do About It?)

    I made a bit over 7 pints of smooth preserves....as opposed to the chunky kind. Because these can go into my homemade Danish. My wife wants me to freeze some. For some peach ice cream later....but my Dad took his ice cream freezer with him to Tennessee. (It's a nice one that does six...

    What Makes For a Lavish -- Or Lamentable -- Lunch?

    Doing it wrong makes it bad. Sliced cheese on raw meat for a cheeseburger is the wrong way to do it.

    Do Our Hobbies Contribute to Over Consumption and Excess Waste? (And If So, What Can We Do About It?)

    One other tidbit.... Some people are "Do-it-yourselfer" and use kits and patterns to make their things. This describes most hobby enthusiasts. Absolutely nothing wrong with these individuals in any respect. There's a lot of people who have issues with even following instructions or making...
