Mojo, fun emails and phone calls are one thing, but just have some kind of escape plan if and when you go to see this guy. I've heard that some men [gasp!] lie on internet dating sites, even going so far as to post pictures that are not of them, lie about their incomes and occupations, and even whether they are married!! Lil reaches for the smelling salts.
I'm gonna need you to be more specific. I've been following Ann's thread but I don't know what Peace Between the Sheets has to do with sorting out the zoo.
I strongly suspect that blackfoot and Stig and Deida would tell me, "They're not crazy; they're women." They'd be right, but at the moment "crazy" works for me.
And what I would say to BF or Stig would be that there are plenty of "non-crazy" people with XX chromosomes out there but you guys don't "see" those people as f*ckable females. "Crazy" = "Signaling sexual availability".

Did you miss my post? Sorting out the zoo really had nothing to do with it... except... the animal that is most likely to show up in the sand box, and do due diligence.... in my mind... is the considered bunny.
Monkey can come out later.
But it all starts with bunny... and is your bunny willing to step into the sand box with your friend... and maybe... get a little... soiled.
ETA: Your bunny is going to test things. If your bunny wants to endlessly test the soil... your monkey will never have a chance. And your monkey has been stored up so long... the light hurtzes its eyes... so it is not going to come roaring out of its cage... your bunny will have to hold its hand and lead it...
I am so happy because I signed the contract for my cute new little apartment today which I can afford all on my own. I'm not homeless anymore!! I can't tell you how depressing it has been to remain living in this big old drafty albatross house which was a constant reminder of my failed marital partnership. I didn't even fully comprehend it until today. Yippee! One more degree of freedom achieved. I'm going to sell or throw out just about everything except some valuable stuff I inherited and start out fresh at IKEA. My D16 asked if she could get new linens and I said "Yes!" and I'm gonna get some too just like LP.

Mojo! Congrats on your new home!!! Fabulous. Go to Linens & More-- they're having a gigantic sale right now on 600+ thread count sheets... soft and smooth as a baby's you know what. It's so lovely to slide into my buttercream sheets every night, even (or especially) alone.
I'm so happy for you. Being at home by myself with my doggies is one of the great pleasures in my life right now. (It would be even better with a daughter!)

Well, if that is the case, he's a really good liar. I'm kind of hurt that you guys all think that FSG is so out of my league that he must just be planning on using me for some kind of fetishtic release or sexual notch marking or something like that. Some guys actually think that I'm kind of hot and some guys actually think that I'm rather good company and sometimes there actually is a guy or two who falls into the intersection of those two sets who isn't an ax murderer or living in his mother's basement or a troglodyte.

Got lots of furniture (cute, too), I would be VERY HAPPY to haul up to you, no cost whatsoever, cept maybe a shared glass of wine for the effort. Absolutely no cost to you... other than I found a happy home for my stuff.

Yea right!!! Mojo, we all know that you are gonna be shopping around for the Rainbow Brite sheet set with matching comforter and pillow shams I think I've also seen on ebay...the Rainbow Brite alarm clock which also doubles as a night light. We have the Winnie the Pooh version! And no, it's NOT for the girls...Miss IC had to have it! Lil, the sound of this alarm clock WILL force you to get up early...I've trained my body to awaken looooong before it goes off. Sorry Miss IC...but your clock and I have issues!
