i know some married women, and what disturbs me is that so many of them tell me that though they love thier husbands, they will go elsewhere for good sex.
sure they are flirting, but they don't sleep around with just anyone, they just have a husband & a sex partner/partners.
the women i am talking about range in age from being fairly young to 50+, so i wondered, is this normal or are the people i know just freaks?.
Housewives??? I can't believe you would use such an "old fasioned" term.................and, I certainly have never, in my 46 years on this earth ever fit that description, even tho I was married for 20 of those 46 years.......my paycheck was a very important part of "our" household.................
I was faithful to my guy for the twenty plus years we knew each other and were involved.........did I struggle during those married years with being attracted to other men? Yes.........on a very few occasions I did...................but, it never went beyond my mental/emotional struggle.............then during the last two years of married life, I became involved in a situation with a coworker where I threw all my moral and spiritual beliefs to the winds and went with my heart and my gut...............and it became an actual physical situation...........turns out he was in a very similar time in his life, married for a long time, never had sex with anyone else but her all those years............feeling very dissatisfied with life in general............label it mid-life crisis if it fits............bottom line..........when the smoke cleared.........I had struck out on a brand new life of my own, he opted to stay with his wife..........and we were both grateful for having met, and connected.........because we both grew from the experience...............does any of that make sense or resonate?
Don't pray anymore............since I feel that we are "the God we seek"........IOW's we are part of the "all that is" we aren't separate from it at all, like Little Toe was talking about.........I feel that there is no separations, if we feel that way, it's because we've forgotten who and what we truly are..................a spirit person having an earthly experience...........

Absolutely, Sassy..................Dudes/Dudettes..............it's okay to party and get high at home, but, as I often tell my BF, who, because he didn't listen to me, is now facing a year of LOCKUP because of his DWI, have fun, get loose, but, do it at HOME, surrounded by your loved ones........share your insights and feelings with those who are most intimate with you, you can have anything you want, at home...............so why go out, trying to find something else?

at the circuit assembly, my mother mentioned to me that the society is warning of a new danger.
there are witnesses that are on the internet reading apostate things but are still members of the congregation.
they are slowly being infiltrated by the 'apostates' and are still amongst us.
I've often thought of going to the KH in a short skirt and making sure they can see my tatty, but, my cojones aren't quite big enough yet..................

I remember a few years back there was a husband and wife team of "apostates" who would show up at the meetings. Apparently they'd been DF'd for decades............I remember the elder I worked for telling me how the husband showed up at the committee meeting with a taperecorder........I was duly horrified at the time.........now, I laugh and think of how smart he was! But, the problem was these two did have some emotional problems or something............the husband used to make his kids go out and eat worms off the lawn, telling them that that might be all they had to eat at Armaggeddon............I remember them coming to the meeting and standing and singing loudly with the rest of the congregation..............he was the one who you may have heard about, he took the State of New Hampshire to court, because he wanted the "live free or die" logo off his license plate............like I said there was a healthy slice of fruitcake on each of their plates!
if so, was it a stranger or was it someone you knew, and how did the relationship develop afterward?
i did once, a friend who was drowning, after the incident the friendship totally deteriorated and now whenever i think about it, i wonder why i bothered, it's difficult watching someone drown, especially when they shout your name instead of help.
anyway, anyone got any experiences to share?.
SheilaM, I had the same reaction as you did at first....................then, the memories started coming..........but, to me, one of the most dramatic memories I ever was involved in was when my sister saved a young girl from being swept under the ice on a fast moving brook and drowning. They both walked to her house, soaking wet in freezing weather, and later, her parents thanked my sister personally. Oh, yeah, I almost forgot, two times, I think I saved my sister's life by running to get my mom........one time was when she went into a pile of smoldering leaves to pick up a piece of melted plastic........she was very young, and when I saw her shoe lace catch fire, I tried to yank her out, but she resisted me........quickly her heavy corduroy pants then caught, and me and my friend ran screaming to the front porch where our moms were sitting chatting............mom came running, threw her to the ground and literally beat the flames out with her own bare hands.........they both had 2nd and third degree burns, and the stink of burnt flesh hung in the air for weeks....................another time, my sis and I were on the stairs together, climbing to a second floor apartment where mom was using a neighbor's phone........it was very cold and my sis had two of those hats that tie under a child's chin on..........apparently, her shoe lace was caught in the crack in the stairs (what is it with her and shoe laces?) she was only two, and she bent down to tie it and woops! she slipped between the railings and fell two stories onto a concrete patio below.............she lay there so still.........I was screaming and crying when I pounded on the door to get my mom................my sister ended up with a fractured skull..........they rushed her in a police car to the nearest hospital, where they kept her under watch............they said that the double thickness of the hats had saved her life..........I remember looking at those hats and seeing the round patch of blood that had oozed out of her ear and dried.............then there was the time that I was sitting at my desk in the reception area of my job and noticed an older man and his wife standing on the stairs outside our office.........he looked distressed.............well, he was having a horrible attack, where he couldn't breath at all! He had emphasyma, etc. and I literally held him upright, while the EMT's were called and kept talking to him til they got there, and strapped an oxygen mask to his face! There's alot more, but, I think that most of us can claim to have been there at the right moment to save someone from doing something harmful to themselves........................
