Game: Ask the Person Below You

More experienced. Hummm. 26 years do it? I have been married that long. I have only had one true love and I married her. I had others I thought I loved, but she was always the one I had on my mind, and once she said "Yes" to my preposal, there was no one else. I am a red-blooded male, and I've been tempted, don't get me wrong. But I couldn't hurt her like that. She has stood by me when many women would have bailed long ago. No. Love, if it is true, is between only two. http://www.cosgan.de/images/midi/liebe/f025.gif

But let's have some other points of view, OK? Same question. ;)

Hey Pen, I think we posted at the same time. But your relpy wants me to hear more opinions on this. I believe your question will have many interesting replies.

Same question as Pen......

Unfortunately, I have had some experience with this, and would choose not to delve into that subject, but, yes, I believe someone can feel truly and honestly in love with more than one person of the opposite or same gender. Though I strongly prefer monogamy, I cannot discriminate against such lifestyles as polygamy or polyamory; I only cannot see myself involved with it.

I agree we can only tell what we would do in the given situation and try not being judgemental.

Would you let the person in your life, take advantage of you. If yes the why and to what extent. If no then why not.

No I never would let anyone take advantage of me.

Same ques.

It is not about anyone, just one person who means the most to you.

Then it will be worse because a person who means the most to me should know that he / she must never take any advantage of me.

what would you do in that case was my question. Let them take advantage of you? Why or why not?

No, I don't let people take advantage of me, because I do not deserve to be taken advantage of. Although I might be too stupid to notice it. Then again, I might also be too stupid to be taken advantage of in the first place. Or act stupid, it's usually the best deterent for such things.

What do you think of Handel's Water Music suites?

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! I usually do not like Baroque as much as more the 1800's and early 1900's classical music, but I saw Handel's full Water Music in concert, with an imitative Baroque band (very small orchestra) and thought it amazing!

To the person below me: what song do you usually sing to, or commonly have repeating in your head?

Right now it's Warmer Climate by Snow Patrol. I can't get it out of my head.

Maybe it's the warmer climate
Maybe I'm a smarter primate
Maybe it's the beer I'm drinking
Maybe I've stopped over-thinking ...

Have you ever attended a day camp when younger?

I did once, but only for about five days, at some place near a beautiful beach oceanside. I had a good time, until I began feeling very ill, and had to go home; the odd thing happened, however, that when I arrived home, I felt entirely better. :D

To the person below me: what items/things do you almost always carry around with you?

I carry around a lot of stuff; sometimes I think it slightly effeminate. :p

My wallet, my keys, my cell phone, gum, pens/pencils, notepad . . . my pockets are always full.

(What do you carry around mono?) :D



To the person below me . . . Would you sacrifice your health for your job? Would you work harder at the expense of your health?

that's easy I always have my claddagh ringhttp://www.sandscripts.com/catalog/b...ands_heart.gif Other than the ring I always carry a book :D my cellphone and my lipstick :cool:

Same question....

Oh, he-he, various things. I usually have my bag with me, which I almost always carry (containing notebooks, sometimes my laptop, pens, a book or two, sometimes a portable CD player, bottled water, and the like). If I do not have my bag, I usually just carry around my keys, moneyclip, collection of cards I carry in a little card-case, breath mints (essential!), a pen or two, and a small notebook (for writing ideas :p).

I practically did through nursing school! :lol: That really took its toll on me, I must confess, and I ended up doing quite well, but, no, I would never sacrifice my entire health for an occupation - functioning comes before working.

I wouldn't, if I could help it.


Same Q

Well, you might say I already did. You see, we knew something bad was wrong with me, and the diagnosis was "Clinical Depression" and I put on Elavil. But the people at church didn't like the idea of a preacher on that type of medicine and convinced me to quit taking it. Meanwhile, at my day job, things went from bad to worse. But I couldn't see quitting as I had a wife, three kids, and they had to have medical insurance, which was free through the company. When I finally cracked, I cracked too much to fix. Thus I am now disabled. And the churches kicked me out also, to add insult to injury! I tried to rehabilitate myself by getting a degree in computers, but the damage was done, the stigma was planted, and here we are, a hermit with a near-genius IQ. C'est la vie.

Do you hold grudges or allow things to pass that you cannot change anyway?

I can honestly say that I seldom hold grudges, but a few, very few, people have definitely compelled me to the limit. Additionally, I can seldom claim that 'I couldn't change it,' but more try to learn if I could, and, if so, how.

I seldom hold grudges. I tend to forgive people as soon as I cool down.

Will you come headbanging?

With my club?

Yes I will surely come & get some more friends too.

Same ques:
Will you come headbanging?

Nah, I prefer my brain staying in one place inside its skull. :D

To the person below me: do you have any plants inside and/or outside your home? If so, what do you have?

Inside I don't think so, but outside I have a garden inwhich there are some trees and flowers.

To the PBM: What's your favourit flower?

Jasmine!

What is your cultural food? I mean in the country you live...

well considering i live in america i would have to say mcdonalds haha
but personally i enjoy japanese and italian foods the most

have you ever read a book that was so weird you wanted to quit reading it but couldnt?

It's name was like "six minutes" probably, well I have forgotten really... It was about a prostitute and her life and at that time I was too young to get into details of the lives of prostitutes so I found the book really sick, wanted to quit reading it but couldn't.

Good one so the same question!

Lots of them. A standout is a short-story called The Gangsta Wore Red, that was in an anthology I had bought second hand. The story was SICK, http://www.cosgan.de/images/midi/konfus/g020.gif but somehow I had to know how it ended. I destroyed the book. I'm more careful with anthologies these days! :nod: :nod: :nod:


Have you ever destroyed a book that upset you?

No, well only because I haven't really read a book that has truly upset me.

Do you talk/walk in your sleep? If so, what does it feel like? If not, would you like to & what do you think it would feel like?

Oh, a few months ago when my exams were near, due to tension, I used to mutter things in sleep. My mother told me that once she heard me tellin the table of twelve to an unknown teacher.

Same Question.

i did when i was maybe ten (about three years ago) and i walked downstairs into the kitchen (in my sleep) and told my mom that i had to make sure that the fish had a 90 degree angle..haha that still makes me laugh

when you read books do you tend to bend them back so it makes creases in the binding?(paperbacks only) i can always tell when ive read a book because i do this

Ooooohh never. I am really possessive about the condition of my books. For this I never lend my books to my brother who tends to bend the books backward while reading them.

A good question so to the next poster same ques.

Yep, I do this. I try to keep my books in good condition but it never works. My latest debacle was when I took a book to vegas - I was reading by the pool and when I got back to the room my book was water logged.

No, I don't, but all those books I've slept with have got tell-tale marks.

Same Q

It's almost impossible not to, but I get upset about it, because the average age of most of my paperbacks exceeds the average age of most people on this forum! :rolleyes:

A very good question to pass on... :thumbs_up

No, I take care not to bend or crease either the pages or the spine; I don't really know why. Most of my paperbacks are not noteworthy anyway.

In all fairness I would like to mention that I have often gotten one ratty old book to carry around and read and one version of the same title in better condition; this second one I put directly onto the shelf and don't read from. I feel stupid doing so because BOOKS ARE FOR READING, not resting on shelves. Theoretically. Whatever. I like to keep nice looking/feeling books nice. :D

Never! Doing that, or seeing someone do that, it makes my back ache, feeling my own spine bend into similar contortions - ouch! :eek2:

To the person below me: while reading, do you tend to 'dog-ear' your pages, rather than using a bookmark?

Nope, no dog earing for me. I use a book mark - generally whatever is handy.

Same Q:

No.

With hard cover books do you use the paper covering as a bookmark, even when it stretches it?

No to the last two questions. What's wrong with remembering a number?

Same question!

Nope. I use a separate bookmark.

Same ques.
