When I went to the Hall in the 70's we had a few single brothers and alot of single sister. The men were like a piece of raw meat in a lions den. My husband was a elder in the late 70's like around 79. They had more elder meetings over sister that were alone and the single brothers would not even give them the time of day. Many of the single sisters were looking for a free meal ticket, and most of them were as ugly as sin.

For me it is a comfort zone. When I feel like giving up on life, I know I can come on this site and find people who are the same as me. I can laugh at some of the post and sometimes I feel very sad for people who are not being treated with respect and kindness. Thank you to all on this site you give me hope that someday I will live a better life.

I know of three. One young boy hung himself in the basement, a very nice kid. Another shot himself in the head and the last one went into the garage and turned the car on and it was over for him. What a waste of life, all three were young men.
