FB Being blown up by Crisco Coconut oil posts
So the other day all over my FB feed I saw pics of Crisco Coconut oil, yet their site does not tell you how it is processed. So out of curiousity I emailed them to see 1. if they would really answer 2. if they would really tell you any information. (Note I wouldn't use Crisco coconut oil any way, but was curious). They did…

Then two weeks before my birthday he disapepared again. He did it the firs time around as well. I am done! Meanwhile I have a gentleman who is interested in me, however, he…

Happy belated 4th of July - checking in
I have not been around a lot lately, and so I thought I would pop in and see what is cooking and wish all my American Single Peeps a belated Happy 4th of July. I hope you all did something fun and exciting. I am still single, but got horribly distracted by life in general, and not in a good way. I have made a pact with…

Why is it.........
Why is it when I say I am happy right now not dating, people do not believe me? Why is it when I say I used to be 320lbs , they do not believe me once again? What is it that you say that people do not believe you?

Just checking in and sayin "hi"
I have not been around much lately, in the forums or even here. So first off I hope everyone had a great Christmas, Kwanzaa or whatever you may celebrate, and a safe New Year. I am physically ok, mentally and emotionally right now, not so hot. But working on it. Have still remained off the dating scene because well I am…

Ugh.... Really???
Ok, so this morning I got a message from a guy on POF. He is 41, 6'5, disabled but going back to school to become a mechanic. In a 45 minute ride to work - he messaged me 9 times to my 3. He was "here's my phone number so you can text me through the day, and on your breaks and lunch and such." Mind you everything he sent…

What is one good thing about being single and one bad?
Name one thing good about being single and one bad. My one good thing is: I can do whatever I want when I want One bad thing: the loneliness

STOP comparing yourself to others
I love this woman and her views on things. I have encountered this on here and in my own life, so I thought I would share this with you. Is perfection getting in the way of your body image? What is that exactly? The pictures of models that are paid *because* they look a certain way? The unrealistic proportions of Barbies,…

Back to Square one
Well, turns out Mr Beefcake, was a lying POS like every other man I have seemed to encountered. So now I am back to square one, thinking dating may not really be for me afterall. Where I work I already do not trust men (I guess a men's prison will do that to a girl) and then to find those on the outside who just haven't…

For honey users
Here is an interesting article regarding honey. Just an FYI http://www.foodsafetynews.com/2011/11/tests-show-most-store-honey-isnt-honey/#.UHSfQ5JJYXV.facebook ETA: this is just an fyi from an article passed on to me. In no way do I claim this to be correct or not, unhealthy or healthy.

Opening Doors - an update
Oh wow oh wow what an experience this has been: Boss man - way too busy to even imagine having a dating life. Going to school FT, single dad and owning his own business. VERDICT: Had to go Diesel Engineer Dude: Turned out to sound like a Nigerian Prince telling me he was temporarily broke and wanted me to give him money…

Opening new doors
Well, here it goes. I am opening new doors, and moving forward. I have gone on a couple of dating sites, and have met some very interesting and some not so interesting men. 1. There is the widowed dad, nice guy, but has already stated he gets jealous (that will absolutely not work with me), so red flag #1. I flat out told…

I stepped out of my comfort zone
OMG I am in awe - I did something I normally do not do. Last night traffic was horrible so I decided to stop and get my hair trimmed up. There was an absolute cutie waiting to get his hair cut as well. All I can say is this man that the MOST amazing voice. It was enough to dang near make my panties drop. In the time we…

New dating site - based on food similarities
SamePlate matches up singles based on what they like (or don't like) to eat. I read this on HungryGirl.com - very interesting.

WTF Does this mean?
Was having a conversation with the gentleman friend. He had sent me a text telling me I hurt him. I apologized, never wanted to hurt him. He said he wanted to be friends because I was expecting too much from him (he actually misunderstood what I was trying to get at) . Lack of communication, which he did not allow me the…

So done - but just still dont get it
Last night for giggles I went on POF (where I met text dumper) to find he had posted a pic I took of him last month when we went camping. I am so DONE and I am so much better off without that jerk :explode: I just do not get - why not just tell me you do not want to be with me? I have never given him any reason to be…

It's a wrap
The gentleman (the one you all said was not ready for a relationship) I had been seeing has called it a wrap because I told him I feel like his dirty little secret. He got all upset, and told me this morning he thinks we should see less of each other, or not at all. How could we see less of each other, we only saw each…

*sigh* I just do not know how to take this
Well the wonderful camping weekend I went on was still fabulous, but I could see some things that started to bug him when he told me his ex wife informed him she was getting married this summer. They have been divorced for a year, she took the dog, not the kid, left him for a guy she met on FB. Monday morning after our…

Weekend Getaway !!!
I am excited and I can barely stand it (kind of like the Pointer Sisters song I am so excited) This guy I had thought about at one time tossing back in the sea from POF (thankful I didnt toss him back) is taking me camping this weekend. We have been dating since January. We would see each other once or twice a week pending…

I wish he had said nothing instead of what he said..
OMG, last night while chatting with a fellow on POF, I got a message from a guy who said he would like to meet me, he then told me, "I dont think we are a match because you are too fat." My first instinct was - you dumb@$$ if you think I am heavy now you should have seen me 9 months ago. It is times like this I just wish…

Geez really???
The other night on POF I got a message from a 37 yo man (using that term loosely) and all I could think was omg you really talk to women like this? Howz itz goin witcha $exxay? Ironically he did not get it when I asked him to repeat what he said in english lol What are some of the worst or failed attempts at pick up lines…

Butterflies - are they a necessity?
Here is the thing, Yes I have been seeing this guy off and on, but there are no butterfly feelings. He is a great guy, very sweet, treats me well and there is some attraction, but no butterfly giddy feelings, when I hear from him or think of him. Is that feeling really necessary? In some ways I say YES, but last time I had…

Really? We should have expected this one....
Well it is apparently official - with the greek yogurt craze, Ben and Jerrys has now introduced a line of Greek Frozen yogurt. *disclaimer* I am not saying this is a good or bad thing, just a mere observation
