mousek 4 Posted May 18, 2011 's all right. I've been known to put my foot in my mouth a time or three. In fact, some days it feels like I only open my mouth to change feet. :thumbup: ha, ha, that's a good one! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SippNSotaGirl 1 Posted May 20, 2011 Thanks, Everyone for the posts!! They've been really helpful. I've been distracted, and not in a good way. I'm having a serious Hair loss phase that's got me pre-occupied. I had problems finding someone when I had a full head of hair, I don't stand a chance now. Life sucks!

ssankofa73 2 Posted July 7, 2011 Dating in your 30's can be tough. I only had the nerve to ask a guy out once (back in my 20's) and got shot down too. I never did that again because the rejection was too painful for me. I don't know how men do it. I've done online dating, meeting guys in volunteer organizations at parties, BBQs and at clubs. I don't date a lot but being social around men is good practice too. I've met some great people and some not so great people and many times have felt like giving up but the fact is this......even when I don't feel like putting myself out there, I still do it so I can at least have the opportunity to meet men. Here's some advice. Give yourself a few weeks to lick your wounds, heal up and get back out there. Smile or make eye contact with every guy you meet, including the cute guy on this thread who asked you for your picture. It may lead to more and even if it doesn't, it will be good practice for you. I'm about to take my own advice. Hi NYsLegend78! ! You were probably good looking before the band. Don't kid yourself. You are gorgeous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aliciab 8 Posted July 20, 2011 Honestly I feel like the internet is the way to go these days. Use your common sense when you use the internet for dating though. Always meet in a public place, tell a friend where you're going and how to contact so that you're safe, but I found the love of my life on Craigslist, no joke!

aliciab 8 Posted July 20, 2011 I dont know about all that but thank you for the compliment lol cause I honestly dont see it You're always gonna feel that way at least a little bit. It happens to us all. Women, men etc. When you look in the mirror you still see and feel like that really heavy person. It makes shopping for clothes very weird. You're always trying to pick up clothes that are two sizes too big. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ssankofa73 2 Posted August 17, 2011 I recently bought one of those "Scene on TV" girdles (because I'm still a big girl) and the salesperson said I couldn't open the packaging and there were no returns. I swore up and down to myself that I was a 2x based on the sizes listed on the box so I had no problem plunking down the money to make a no-refund purchase. When I got home, I immediately ripped open the package and slid into the girdle. Dang! It was at least a size and a half too big. Its kind of a good problem to have.
