when somebody will tell you this...do you really believe what he/she is telling you?? for me, this line is so hard to believe...almost everyone says this but most of them do not really mean it... :(

dietrie I think this type of sentiment is better expressed through what you do, and not what you say. I would prefer to be with someone who consistently SHOWS how much he cares for me by respecting me, showing me how I am special to him and important in his life,...

Extrovert or introvert?

jessmtiu @jessmtiu (251) • Philippines 23 Jan 07

Do you consider yourself an extrovert or an introvert? I consider myself to be an introvert-- I am quiet, introspective, reflective, and shy. I have only a few friends that I'm really close to but people approach me if they need a...

dietrie I consider myself to be an introvert as well. Once a person gets to know me, however, they can hardly get me to shut up! I would say when I first meet somebody I am pretty shy although I try to hide it and come off as confident. Once I am well known to a group...

dietrie Oh the little things -- there are SO many! When my two kids are screaming at the same time, that drives me batty. And unfortunately for me my son screams when he's happy too. I also find it really annoying when he hangs off my leg and whines; he will do this...

Is it true that newborns can swim?

doncris @doncris (637) • Romania 23 Jan 07

I heard that if you put a newborn in the water, he/she will be able to swim without any problem. They can even handle staying submerged! Is this true?

dietrie I do think I have heard as well that it may be possible that they would not breathe in the water, but I have also heard that it is not safe for them because of their body size and the fact that they could swallow alot of water and end up with water...

My friend is in a really bad position

ktroth @ktroth (378) • United States 23 Jan 07

I have a dear friend who is terminally ill. Her illness requires her to take steroids, which cause her to bloat, and other medications make her skin break out. When she got married, about 15 years ago, she was thin, healthy,...

dietrie I am so sorry for what is going on with your friend, and what a rough place for you to be in and watching her go through all this. I think what this man is doing to his wife is disgusting and appalling. I really feel for her, as I have family members and a few...

dietrie I think many people tend to be co-dependant nowadays (and probably always). They let their relationships define them and think of themselves as only part of a whole. I think this is the reason for the saying that love is blind. Because people can overlook all...

How do you measure success?

Terri_R @Terri_R (302) • United States 22 Jan 07

Many people tend to define success based on the money in their bank account, the car they drive, the neighborhood they live in and/or the toys they own. How do you measure success?

5 responses

dietrie I measure success in how happy I am, how happy my family is and how happy I can make other people I am in contact with in my life. I have always felt like I don't need a lot of fancy things to be happy, all I really want is to make the most of my life and the...

dietrie I'm so glad you got a break. It is so rejuvenating for the soul to take some time out for yourself. Us Moms need them to stay sane and capable of caring for our kids. Keep taking good care of yourself! When your kids see you taking good care of yourself, then...

Do You Play Scrabble?

Danna B. @db20747 (43438) • Washington, District Of Columbia 27 Aug 20

Do you play Scrabble? Im playing a game of Scrabble everyday for 3 cents a day. Quite interesting. You have to make words that connect to other words with the letters they give you. I wish I could play games for grand prizes!...
