hey why not lets just trash forum etiquette totally, we got married and taken people hanging in singles. of course men still ain't allowed in the women only part, (talk about discriminating) might as well get us some militant atheists posting around here.
And yet, you don't seem like a person who follows rules just for the sake of following rules.

and yet when i come to a SINGLES forum, I do expect everyone posting to be SINGLE, not married, not with a boy/girlfriend, not engaged,
I'm referring to older conversational threads, and those who choose to revive them. :p

Wisebeardman, there seems to be no pleasing you. If someone revives an old thread on a subject, you gripe; if someone makes a new thread about a subject (rather than resurrect an old one), you gripe that we already have XX number of threads on the subject.

I've reached the point with you that I'm going to give you a simple choice: either accept the way things are on this site without constant griping, or utilize the little red X at the upper right corner of the page.

well if you don't like my "complaining" why not just click the little ignore button and ignore me. and you can go back to telling someone having sex out of marriage is a bad thing for the 50 trillionth time.

Not at all. Yesterday, a cashier was chatting me up and I was just like, "yeah..." "mhm..." "ok..." XD Outside of family, I really only spend time with one person unless forced to do otherwise lol. I just really like doing my own thing. I don't like waiting on others or being on someone else's schedule.
It's funny from your posts I think of you as being very social.

I'm not very social with people that I don't know. I'm polite and I will talk but I'm not one to just strike up a conversation. When in a crowd, I'm usually the listener. It takes me awhile to warm up to people that I am just meeting. I have a few close friends and I'm content with that.

Overly social people give me pause. Why are they so friendly? What do they want? Why talk to me out of all the other choices of people around?

It's a good thing I have very strong Kung-Fu in the art of RBF. It keeps all but the most hearty and brave at a distance and silent.

Haha I think I'm a bit more social on here just because I can come and go as I please and pick and choose where I want to respond. There's no forced interactions. :p

Awe I see. I guess I'm one of those people that looks like I'm very easy to talk to because I haven't complete strangers tell me things I don't think they should tell me. I don't know why, I will say hello to someone walking by and my kid's will ask if I know them, then give me the third degree about talking to them. I said hi. When I'm at work at the laundromat I get some people who I think just don't have a lot of people to talk to so they'll talk to me. I don't mind talking but when it's something to personal or uncomfortable I change the topic quickly.

I think I am even more social in real life than on here.. Like I am a chatter box. I can always bring people a smile and laughter in all times in my life.. If I am sick or not.

LOL I have been told by some people that I got to know after randomly talking to them that they thought the same thing why is he so friendly why is he so happy another one told me there is no way he is that nice no one is that nice.

Nothing wrong with being a friendly face :p I had a friend once that would talk to anyone. I remember the first time we went somewhere, we were looking at deodorant, and she just started randomly talking to someone nearby about it. That was so weird to me lol.

Btw, Isn't it usually the parents that have to tell the kids not to talk to strangers :confused::p

I couldn't help but notice that when you hover the mouse over the green boxes under your name, it says, "Wisebeardman is wonderful to listen to." Talk about ironic.

I'm not sure what's going on in your life, Wise, but I'm sorry you feel the need to take it all out on the people here.

I am a lazy extrovert. I socialize mostly at work, with my parents, and church, but take special days to spend with my close friends. Whenever I move out I imagine I need to take more time to be social, even if just hanging out at a coffee shop to be around people without bothering them.
