    I can't say I made a conscious choice to NOT look at something, yes though you are right in the sense that it's hard for anyone to get a full visionary when we are in the subjective opposed to the objective - so sure, there may have been things that, had I of not had interest in him, I may have...

    Aquariums?...

    No, but I felt mean to my fishies and had to justify myself so that I felt better about it! LOL And I don't want to make anyone else sad in my circumstantial neglect-the-fishy-situation! LOL But then I also did have to look up what I was told about the hardiness of my tetras, so the info I...

    Just be thankful that I don't have anyone's phone number who disagrees with me LOL ;) Sorry if they're long, I like to provide novel like reading material for everyone! LOL Sadly, I think I've become slightly addicted to my standpoint in this thread. No obligation to keep up with me!

    ...and sincerly I express, no worries, I don't see you as being malicious or bitter - I believe we're both just really trying to express ourselves as clearly as possible in hopes that we will understand each others perspectives.

    Aquariums?...

    LOL - no disagreement with any of the statements made regarding me neglecting my fish - I simply just don't have time, or better yet, have not chose to make the time - out of the house from 8 til 6:30 every day- as most of you know I'm a single parent with a 4 year old, work full time, school...

    I thought I clearly explained what I meant about him being "good" to begin with then went bad and then good again in one of my posts, but I'll explain again so you better understand, and possibly you will have less a hard time believing. -knew him all my life, was a good character, wasn't really...

    And...all in all, it's a matter of opinion and experience as to what is easier.

    Single Parent Forum!...

    I think I need to clarify a few things about what has been stated in this thread. My first post was a reply to what budnkota had said about disagreeing that single parenting is easier than parenting with a partner. My bottom line in my post was that I personally find the cons of my single...

    Sex Offenders In YOUR Neighbourhood...

    You know what is really sad - the fact that now a days, we have to watch our kids outside. Do you remember when you were 7 to 12 years old, and your parents let you roam around with your friends in the neighbourhood? I do, we lived in the country...major farm country, and even in the same place...

    Sex Offenders In YOUR Neighbourhood...

    I guess I can't say what I would really do, as then there would be evidence that it premeditated and that would make the charges worse....if ya get my point! If I had the money, I'd just hire someone! These people don't deserve to EVER be released. And I don't know why they spend our tax...

    Joey looks like he came from Miami Vice or a soap opera, Jon looks like he should be doing those strung out Calvin Klein ads Donny reminds me of a womanizing bad boy, Jordon looks gay (and he was my fave) and I just don't know what to think about Danny! My goodness, I seen these guys when I...

    What do you do when a child says mom that lady is to fat...

    Yes, Faith has said this, sorta! I did just what Kaytee suggested, explained to her that some people don't eat healthy and it causes them to gain unnecessary weight, also some people have medical problems that cause this too. I told her that a lot of people who have this problem feel sad to...

    Single Parent Forum!...

    Based on the first time I quoted you, then comparing with the whole post you just made, I guess you're speaking from experience as to what has been easier - single parenting or co-parenting. Now knowing more of your situation, I understand that you have worn both shoes to compare. But I...

    There is never any way to determine if a man will turn into a "dud" as you so call him. If we were to have relationships the traditional way (no sex, date, get married, move in together, have children) there's no way to even assume what type of father/husband/lover/companion he will become -...
