I suppose so. I should probably just tell this man I'm not interested... that's difficult for me. I don't know why. It makes me feel bad, and I'm not certain what to do. He actually told me the other evening there is no pressure and we can just have fun.

Oh?

LOL. I had a 20 minute conversation the other day with my "friend" about high heels. She let me in on the secret that they universally suck. She wears them like every day though cause she's 4'8". I'm flat footed and wear the most comfortable shoes I can find. Thank goodness I'm a dude for the shoes.


I love heels! I'm petite, like your friend and have worn them for years. I have so many shoes, it's ridiculous! Truly.

THAT is an idea. They do come in white...

My best friend would kill me...but oh well. It's my damn day.

Yeah I make fun of her for being shorty (probably shouldn't, but she's moving to Texas so I'll continue to tease). Another reason I'm glad to be a dude...I don't like shoes and it seems women have to have at least 150 pairs. I have like 5. And I only wear 2 of them.

I love the no pressure gag....that's what we do when we want to pressure. It's passive aggressive 101 I think. What's playing...perhaps you can tough it out if you get a really good to see a really good show.

I don't know what I'll do. I wouldn't mind going with him so much if it wasn't such a drive. Yet, it's a bit of a drive and that would mean I'd have to talk to him... not that I mind talking to people (or him in particular), it's just I feel pressure of some sort. I wish I could just meet someone I like, liked me, and then that's that! Does that make sense? This man tries to impress me, and while that's rather sweet it makes me a tad uncomfortable.... and I would much rather just feel relaxed and not feel pressure of some sort. I actually already decided I don't like him that much....

I don't know what I'm trying to say. It's like he tries to read me and give me something and I'd just rather him be himself if he would. He's also rather persistent which makes me a tad uncomfortable. My parents know him, as well, which makes me nervous.... I married last time because of pressure exerted from my parents, and well, I don't know.... I just want to be left alone. :)


Mon, I get what you're saying about the impressing part. In the beginning of relationships, sometimes people try to be who they think the other person wants them to be, instead of being themselves...


Yes! Precisely! I feel quite sorry for men that attempt to do that with me.... 'cause well, I think I might be difficult to figure out, for some?

Parental pressure sucks. Mom is trying to ingratiate herself with mine...I really don't want to have to shut her down, it's nice that he has access to the house until we move. I need my regular nookie. Especially since today was my last day on our job, and I won't see him every day anymore...

Whatever you do, enjoy your birthday.


Yes, no matter what age I am my parents are constantly nosing in. My mother is such a control freak, and it drives her nuts that I am just so lackadaisical about so much. Oh, well. What is your mother doing?



I'm difficult to figure out. Steve stopped trying and just does what I say now. Works just fine. Got him to get a manicure the other day, now he wants a pedicure, LOL. Funny stuff!

My mother is a control-freak too. OCD as well, I think. She is uber-organized, her closet is color-coordinated. She took pictures of her shoes with her digital camera and put them on the front of the boxes so that she wouldn't have to open them to see what they were....um clear plastic boxes??? Work for me...

Yeah, I'm a "it can be replaced/wait until tomorrow" kind of gal.
