What should I do about her?

Ricki Dillane @ricki_911 (21625) • Toronto, Ontario 2 Feb 16

I dated this guy for a little but nothing overly serious. He was rather on the shy side, very nice guy, but he just didn't seem to want to move anything along (not like I was in a hurry either). I gave him least 7 or 8 months....

Have you ever tried online dating sites

WendySpickerman @WendySpickerman (983) • United States 2 Feb 16

We often think people who try online dating sites must be those hopeless, helpless cases, but that's not always the case. Some people work crazy hours that doesn't allow for much time to get out, socialize and meet someone. And...

carlaabt I met my last boyfriend online. Within about a week of talking to him, he told me that he knew we couldn't be just friends. After about a month of talking, we were telling each other "I love you." When we had been talking seven weeks I went to see him. He...

carlaabt The first day of February wasn't bad here. It was my son's birthday. We both cried a little, but overall it was a good day. My boyfriend died in November, so my son was really missing him yesterday. He kept talking about how much fun they would have had...

What a January! Remember to Appreciate Life!

Catherine @bluesa (15022) • Johannesburg, South Africa 2 Feb 16

The words, "The best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry" from the poem "To a Mouse" from "Robert Burns", is so apt to life. We can plan, but, nothing is a given. Nothing should be taken for granted. What a January it was....

carlaabt I think losing someone "young" is always the hardest. In November my boyfriend died suddenly. He was 32. To say it's been rough would be an understatement. It does remind you of what is truly important though.

carlaabt I'll most likely be celebrating Valentine's Day with just my son. Although a very good friend did ask me if I wanted to hang out with him for an anti-Valentine's day date. Haha. He's going through a divorce and it's pretty ugly at the moment.

What Time Do You Rise?

Sheila Brown @sgbrown (1638) • United States 2 Feb 16

What time do you get up of a morning? Are you one that likes to sleep in, if you can? I am surprised by the number of people that don’t have to get up early, but rise before the sun does. It seems that those who don’t have to get...

Have you ever sent a message to the wrong person by mistake?

Gudheart @gudheart (12659) 2 Feb 16

What do you like about your favorite grocery store?

snowy @snowy22315 (180805) • United States 2 Feb 16

I like this store near me called Shoppers Value. It has values better than Walmart or other discounters. I recently bought a bag of apples there that have a great flavor for 1,94 which is dirt cheap. Not everything in the store is...

Tea? Coffee? Something else, maybe?

Bill Kasman @BillKasman1 (49) • Edinburgh, Scotland 1 Feb 16

Personally I prefer tea over coffee - unless its a good restaurant cup of cappuccino in which case the coffee wins every time. When I'm at my keyboard I will usually drink a carbonated drink (we call them 'fizzy drinks' in the UK)...

carlaabt I don't drink tea ever, and coffee very rarely. For almost two months after my boyfriend died I made it a point to completely avoid caffeine altogether. I drink soda again now, but not every day or anything. I mainly just drink water.

carlaabt It's warm and sunny at my house today. Of course that's relative. It's 30 degrees, which would probably be way too cold for many on here. But it's warm in North Dakota. ;) We don't plant until around memorial day here. Around Easter we'll start seedlings....
