  Did you have to dress up for meeting?

  by ericr in

  i remember having to dress up for every meeting even the ones during the week.

  i had to wear a botton down shirt dress pants, a tie, dress shoes, dress socks and a blazer.

  this was also required by my parents to dress up when going door to door.

  Because of this I avoid dressing up when possible now.

  Me too. I now refuse to wear a coat and tie. I don't care what the occasion is. I'm going to wear what I want, not what I have to wear.

  Damn, it's tempting to go. I'm going to think about it the next couple of weeks.

  I've always wanted to go ever since I saw a tv report about it. I think it was the diversity of people and how everyone accepted eachother regardless of how odd or strange they seemed.

  do i go with my gut instinct???(long, im sorry, but i need help)

  by theinfamousone in

  so, simply put, i am in love... and love makes a man do some really stupid things.... love makes a pretty damn intelligent man feel pretty damn stupid quite often as well... so here's my story... i have been dating this girl for almost a year now... she is beautiful, sweet, and really just everything i imagined in a life mate... she lives with me... she doesnt work, while i do full time, and also go to school... i make very good money, so that does not bother me... but heres where it all begins... a few months ago, she went to cuba with her sisters, and imoved her into my place while she was gone, her idea, not mine.. now we keep our condoms in a certain place.... anyways, her box of condoms was gone, with her... when she comes back, our little box of condoms is empty.... instead of asking her about it, i explained it to myself as she must have given them to her sister.... .

  while i am gone at work, i usually give her a call on my breaks... i notice that she never answers the phone between 6-8 pm.. home or cell... her explanation is that she is always in the shower... the problem with that is that she is always coming out of the shower when i get home.... i get home at around nine... so either she is taking a 3 hour shower or she is taking two showers a night..... she disappears off the face of the earth everytime she goes home to visit her family... like shes not home, shes not answering her phone and only ever calls me when she is in her car....her explanation is that she is at a cousins house.. conveniently, one that i do not know..... last night she went to a wedding... it was over at 11, i know this because she had told me, nd a friend of mine tht was there said that it ended then,,, it was a dry wedding, no dancing... very religious people... i was supposed to meet her at 130 today, i got to the train station that she was coming to, 15 minutes early and waited over an hour there... finally as i decied to walk back home, she gives me a call... i will be home at 5, meet me at the train.... of course, i have been calling her since last night at 11 to tell her i would meet her at 130 as she had planned... i made brunch for her, which is now in the garbage... i was scared shitless she had been hit by a car or dead since her phone has been off since last night.... i asked her why she is so late, i was helping move things until 3am last night... bull shit.. all the gifts were given prior to the weding and the bride and groom had already moved into their new place.... i know because she has told me in the past.....her phone was dead according to her... but all of the sudden, she is able to use it.... no charger, but she can use it..... i did confront her once, and she exploded on me!!!!

  like screamed and screamed and said she was insulted i even asked... textbook defensive behaviour right????.

  Is your lease up soon for your apartment?

  If so, arrange a new apartment to be ready for your when lease expires.

  Have it furnished and prepared. Electricity, cable, internet, etc.

  When your lease expires on the old apartment, then simply move over to your new apt, minus the g/f.

  Don't worry about your g/f. First of all, she cheated on you while in Cuba. Secondly, she's an independent, capable woman who can take care of herself. Women don't need men, so make her earn her own way in life.

  BETHELITES - Whatever Became of?

  by Black Man in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i often times wonder what happened to certain bethelites that i ran around with during my 1990s tenure there.

  while there are still a few left there, the greater majority of them aren't there for various reasons (marriage, disillusionment, left the borg, etc).

  a couple of cats i wonder about - there was one brother who i believe was from kansas, who got his fingers cut off in a printing press.

  good point stilla,

  In most cases, a phone call while on vacation would show you're an asset at work. Second: If your job is paying you vacation time, then I think they have every right to call. As mentioned you also have the right not to answer.

  My wife is in. I'm out. I have more to say, but now is not the time as it would all be negative, complicated and I'm just not ready to discuss it.
