    [Any other married chit chatters ever considered the Big D?

    Yup. It was about out about 4-5 years ago.
    I stayed, for my own reasons.

    Give it time! I am sure we will catch up

    Yeah @StelleInCielo, I see it as divorced people are done talking about relationships, married people still have hope and will talk about relationships, and single people are desperate to talk and find someone for a relationship lol.

    Sounds about right. And truth is I would hate to be single now. Seems like people (women and men alike) are more interested in quick hookups and no commitment flings then actually building on that mutual attraction and seeing where it takes you.

    Maybe it's because I'm old (68) or a typical American I'm still surprised when I realize I'm on the World Wide Web! LoL

    @lexealpu My youngest son took a three month sabbatical and roamed South Africa. He Loved it and I got to have a "virtual" experience.

    I've been sick. At work with swollen glands and a bloody nose. Happy Wednesday ( I guess it's good if I thought it was Tuesday and typed that initially)!

    Married MFP'er here. Married 28 years, 1 grown son. I've been reading through this whole thread and I missed a bunch of good topics! I have to comment on one of them because I feel like such a weirdo.

    Vacations and who plans them. My husband and I have never went on a major vacation with just the two of us. We have always went with groups so neither one of us have planned any vacation we've been on. We go on a week-long camping trip every year with about 40-50 people, we go on a week-long snowboarding trip every year with 10-12 people, we've been on group cruises and group vacations to Hawaii. I find this odd but every time we talk about doing a "just us" vacation some group thing comes up and we want to do that. In Feb, we're going on a group trip to Fiji. Maybe we're just lazy and don't want to do our own planning!

    Happy Friday!

    Sounds like you have good social connections, but some alone time would be very good as well.

    Yeah, for now! I can't wait until the 1st snow. It usually happens on Halloween. Our winters get in the negatives. Can't wait! I LOVE the cold, and I'm getting tired of the heat.

    Good for you. Coldest where I live is 19 C or 67 F. Nowhere near freezing as you can see.

    @Guns_N_Buns sorry G&B, I hope you're over it soon! That stinks to have to go to work feeling that way, we've missed you!

    Honestly, some times I desire quick hook ups but in the end I know deep down it would need to be something more. Never been good at the hook-up stuff anyways. I like people I want to sleep with too much.

    I would love to live there. I am not a cold weather person.
