How much does it take to make you smile?

Leca @lecanis (16647) • Murfreesboro, Tennessee 28 Jun 07

Even when things are going really badly for me (like right now with my health) it only takes a tiny amount of kindness from another human being to make me smile. It's amazing the extent to which one small moment can make a whole...

lalav1 Generally it doesn't take much to make me smile. My cats can make me smile, my friends, letters from family and friends, playing on the internet, buying gifts and wrapping them up. Right now I am going through treatment for cancer, but having very positive...

Do you mind the height of the person who you are going to date?

youless @youless (112496) • Guangzhou, China 1 Jul 07

Frankly, I do pay attention to it. I always prefer I date with a man who is at least taller than me 15cm. I don't know why, maybe it makes me feel security. If we have similar height or he is just taller than me a little, then...

lalav1 Yes, I have found that I atually like the man I'm dating to be about the same height as me or a little bit taller, but not much. I am 5 foot 3 inches tall, so short guys don't worry about your height if you are short. I feel it is more comfortable as far as...

lalav1 I wouldn't feel bad. I rarely comment on responses. We do not get paid anything for comments and it is too time consuming. I do go through and read all the responses, rate them and choose a best response and I don't feel bad about it.

lalav1 Excessive thirst is a bad sign, as well as losing weight. It sounds like he's really sick to me and needs to go to the vet to find out what's wrong with him asap. Perhaps you can call a vet's office or investigate on the internet to find out what's wrong by...

Are you in favor of long term engagement before getting married?

lalav1 In my opinion a long engagement is a year. I think it lessens financial pressure and pressures of planning the wedding. I also think it gives you another year to get to know each other and possibly stop you from getting married for the wrong reasons or...
