I know I can't be the only one who abosolutely detests those little yellow, happy, ADHD suffering smileys. If that weren't enough, I have to watch bananas dancing, faces chuckling, and even smileys with pom-poms. Stop it! I don't...

littlepeople38 I really don't know why they bug me so much. I think it's just such a distraction from what I'm reading to see things bouncing all over the place! Mostly I think they are just overly used.

Yes, I admit it. I wasn't cut out for this. Anybody else with me here? It's not that I'm unfaithful because I'm not. I also don't lie to my husband, or do or say much of anything that would be considered unkind. Instead, it's what...

littlepeople38 Exactly. I never was jealous either, and I couldn't relate to friends who would get so weird about needing to know where their boyfriend or husband was every single minute of the day.

littlepeople38 You are right. That is exactly what I do. Why do you think you keep your problems to yourself? I have tried to figure out why I do it, but the only thing I come up with is that I am so stubborn and self-reliant, that I refuse to lean on anyone. That's stupid...

littlepeople38 Thanks. My cynicism often gets the best of me. The truth is, I think I envy those who are able to expose their vulnerabilities without significant discomfort.

littlepeople38 Funny how you mentioned feeling sometimes like the man in the relationship. That is often just how I have described it. What's interesting too is that I also sometimes find it difficult to make female friends for that same reason. I think many women mistakenly...

littlepeople38 Thank you for that. I know that we are often attracted to those traits in others that we do not possess. I'm sure that has alot to do with my choice to marry someone so much more open and outgoing. I appreciate your vote of confidence!

littlepeople38 Honestly, it's just who I am. I'm that way with everyone I know, so it certainly wasn't caused by anything in the marriage. At the same time though, I know that it impacts our marriage greatly. It's just very difficult to overcome when even I can't figure out...

littlepeople38 That's a very interesting point you made about your independence. Apparently, my independent nature has been a sore spot in many relationships that I have had. I also admit that I don't compromise well. Congrats on almost 20 years!

I'm curious how many other moms out there secretly like watching any kids shows as much as their own children do. I will admit that I have actually become a fan of "Drake and Josh" on Nickelodeon. Okay, so it's more for tweens,...

littlepeople38 I love Jimmy Neutron! I totally forgot about that show. My older son used to watch that every day after school. Sometimes everybody's voices on Fairly Odd Parents would get on my nerves, but he watched that one alot too.

littlepeople38 It looks like I need to check out That's So Raven since everyone seems to be mentioning that one. Spongebob can be really dumb, but other times really funny. That's one show that has episodes I love, and ones I can't stand!

littlepeople38 Okay, now I have the theme song to Big Comfy Couch in my head. "There is lots to doodle do", and I always dreaded that music! I think I could just never get past the look of what is her name? Lunette? That's funny about Teletubbies, but as annoying as they can...

littlepeople38 I agree.. Josh isn't quite the same now. I used to watch spongebob some too, but now my kids think they are too old for it. What? I'm in my late 30s, and I still enjoy it! I've never seen That's So Raven, but I think one of my old childhood friends has been a...
