  well, first off, to you whom suggested magnesium to me, thank you (i think) .

  my headaches have been a constant source of misery for me since my last desperate post regarding them.

  but i did start on the magnesium treatment.

  Viv,
  Have you google'd your preventative drugs + magnesium + side effects to see if there's any info on it? The mag might be interacting with the drugs your taking.

  she's just a friend

  i was married a long time, divorced and alone for the last couple of years.

  i consider myself content.

  i've come to terms with being alone and the prospect that i may not be with someone for a good while.

  (( daytona )) I've been in a similar situation a few times, and kept the friendship because I enjoyed the company of the guys so much, even though it was bittersweet (putting it mildly). Perhaps focus on the positive here - maybe you're helping her come out of her shell, maybe you've learned more about qualities you find attractive in a woman, maybe you've learned more about yourself.

  Any introverts out there?

  i took freedom frogs personality test yesterday, three times.

  my lowest introverted score was 67. i think that borders on recluse.

  are you comfortable with that part of yourself?.

  Another introvert here. I like quality people in limited doses, and enjoy my own company immensely.

  first off, i'm fine so don't go getting all worked up on my account.

  we've all heard the "6 months to live question" before.

  i'm just stretching it out a bit longer to 2 years.

  FIOS is awesome! I miss it now that I've moved to a AT&T area, and I'm back on cable modem. TV service was awesome as well, with noticeable better picture quality. Price was 10% cheaper than cable.

  i am sure this isn't a mid-life crisis i have done that and got out of the jws.

  .

  but i am seriously thinking of just leaving the west with its rat race, emphasis on money, senseless tv and media, cars, shopping malls, pre-packaged food, supermarkets, etc, etc, and moving to india to live in a small cottage near a beach somewhere.. anyone else got the urge to get out of the rat-race?.

  Anyone ever disfellowshipped for gluttony?

  by gaiagirl in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i never knew or heard of anyone, and remember many, many members of congregations who clearly ate much more than they needed to for health.

  since the bible lumps gluttons with other "sinners" such as fornicatiors, why does wtbts not prosecute gluttons?

  perhaps elders meetings aren't as much fun when you only get to ask questions like "what did you eat next?

  The most gluttonous person I knew was skeletal, with an overactive metabolism. At least that's what she said. We invited her out to a restaurant once and she ate more than our whole family. It turns out she was a poor pioneer sister who had little money for food, so she binged when she got a chance.

  I just watched it last week. It got off to a slow start but I enjoyed it! A campy DiNero was hilarious. I think the "Princess Bride meets POC label" is appropo.

  i've had something happen to me at work and i just need some opinions .... i work at a store where i am the only female employee.

  we were short handed these past two weeks because someone quit and the new guy doesn't start until monday so they got a guy from another store to come fill in.

  i hardly know this guy except for him talking to me about business related things.

  I also thought 'ride' has multiple meanings, so I would have said "what do you mean?" and got more clarification from him. If he made any suggestive comments, then I would have complained.
