? Waking up early today (pic one) Washing up (pic two) How's your day starting?

BudFrank comments on Apr 7, 2019:

Starting slowly. Don’t have a beautiful companion in bed or the shower with me.

Good morning! Where's the weekend going?

BudFrank comments on Apr 7, 2019:

Going with the family to South Georgia to visit my aunt, uncle and cousins there. They had a very different lifestyle and it Was fun to see the differences. We also went to the beach with them.

I’m in N Carolina USA and am seeing ads for dating sites for farmers.

BudFrank comments on Apr 7, 2019:

Where are you in NC?

Do you have trouble taking that first step?

BudFrank comments on Apr 6, 2019:

I am a little hesitant to initiate. Internet dating has made it easier as well as harder. It’s easier to say something since it’s not face to face and I might not be as embarrassed if I stick my foot in my mouth. On the other hand there are so many rejections or failures to respond per positive response that my self esteem can take a hit if I don’t have the right attitude.

Ilike to think I'm not the worst catch in the world but even I don't think I'm up for a32y/o beauty ...

BudFrank comments on Apr 6, 2019:

Waves lots of red flags to me

I live in South Charlotte. Where does your group meet? How often? Goals and activities. Richie

BudFrank comments on Apr 6, 2019:

This group doesn’t have any meetings scheduled. It is simply an online group. If someone wants to set up a face to face group meeting I would think you could suggest it and see what people think. I’m not an admin, just have a little experience with things.

Good morning and happy Friday! A friend of mine posted a question about favorite childhood smells ...

BudFrank comments on Apr 5, 2019:

My parents had a florist shop. I enjoyed the smell of the place. It wasn’t just the fragrance of the flowers. It was the smell of plants and the water they were in, cut stems and the walk-in fridge.

I did this just now....

BudFrank comments on Apr 5, 2019:

Been there, done that, got the t-shirt

Please play along? It’s always fun to see!

BudFrank comments on Apr 5, 2019:

My youngest three grandsons

Apparently the ring bearer is curious.

BudFrank comments on Apr 4, 2019:

Maybe he’ll be the one that gets the garter, but this is a little premature, to say the least

A coffee coaster a coworker gave me for my birthday. Too funny

BudFrank comments on Apr 4, 2019:

I forgot to tell you

Funny thing I told my mom recently... "I feel like I'm approaching my 'best if used by date'".

BudFrank comments on Apr 4, 2019:

I hope not. I’m way ahead of you and am not planning to just date much younger women

Good afternoon! This morning, time ran away from me and it hasn't gotten much better yet! I'm ...

BudFrank comments on Apr 4, 2019:

I dropped by the Red Cross office to check my mail and ended up helping out the disaster program manager. Got a nice thank you from him

I think maybe he does have the occasional shot or two, especially when facing these complicated ...

BudFrank comments on Apr 4, 2019:

I’ll take that as a yes

Okay .

BudFrank comments on Apr 4, 2019:

Were all messed up to an extent.

Okay this isn't anything deviant, but just about sex.

BudFrank comments on Apr 3, 2019:

Good for you having a positive body image and not settling for a guy who won’t accept you!!

I am not sure I want to date right now.

BudFrank comments on Apr 3, 2019:

It’s ok to take time to heal. It’s your choice whether to jump in again. I decided to, butnyoure not me. Make your decision and we will stand by you

Good Morning All! Do you ever relax and accept the crazy that comes into your life?

BudFrank comments on Apr 3, 2019:

What a life full of crazy! It will be much better soon. Hang in there!

Good morning! Thanks for your input yesterday (and every day)! @MrLizard and I are in the ...

BudFrank comments on Apr 3, 2019:

I can get short with people and not give them thoughtful responses to their questions or comments. I can also withdraw emotionally. But many times I’m able to take a more Zen view and let things roll off me, figure the job will get done eventually, it’s not that important, and/or it’s not worry getting upset about in the long term.

Okay, so here's the really important question.

BudFrank comments on Apr 2, 2019:

Five guys. Maybe it’s the salt or freshness.

Good morning! A good friend of mine recently just won't quit bringing up a subject that I told her...

BudFrank comments on Apr 2, 2019:

If it is a text or email conversation I will simply not respond after a point and after a warning that I’m not going to respond further. If it’s in person I can leave the conversation physically, just walk out after a warning that the subject is closed. Likenother have said, I try not to have that kind of friend in my life.

?. Last post of the night... Good night...

BudFrank comments on Apr 1, 2019:

I don’t understand the need for the hand position. They no longer cover the significant parts of breast. .

Welcome to the group, @BudFrank.

BudFrank comments on Apr 1, 2019:

I decided on the American Red Cross as my volunteer activity of choice. I’ve settled into the logistics role. It’s more behind the scenes, procurement, warehousing, getting and supplying the things needed in a disaster response. I have been in the responses to hurricane Florence, hurricane Michael, California wildfires, and tornadoes in east alabama. I enjoy being able to help out without the intense emotional stress of handling “clients’” problems directly. Logistics is something that is necessary though and I have skills in those areas. When there is no disaster I meet with other logistics workers and we try to get things ready for when the next shoe drops. They just named me logistics Lead for all of the western half of North Carolina. It will be interesting to see how I do encouraging volunteers in their jobs.

I've met the perfect guy on that fishing site. Is it possible that he is real?

BudFrank comments on Apr 1, 2019:

There are real people out there. Maybe you have a good one. I hope so!

Back from Colorado after celebrating my birthday for the weekend.

BudFrank comments on Apr 1, 2019:

Happy birthday! Glad you had a good trip

It's that time of year again!

BudFrank comments on Mar 31, 2019:

I recognize it. The second from the left!

[agnostic.

BudFrank comments on Mar 31, 2019:

Thanks for the warning. ?

WHO ARE YOU?

BudFrank comments on Mar 31, 2019:

I’m first of all kind, a citizen of the world, open minded, somewhat empathic, intelligent, young at heart.

So dating.

BudFrank comments on Mar 31, 2019:

I have been on POF, OkCupid and Tinder. All were free for the basic use including emailing/chatting. I preferred OkCupid because they have a lot of questions you can answer, which gives a better feel for the person. But when emailing I just use real words. You can catch scammers because of their poor English often.

🤡.

BudFrank comments on Mar 31, 2019:

I believe this site attracts the thoughtful agnostics and atheists, not just those that have no faith but haven’t thought it through philosophically. On the whole, those with no faith in the world may not be more intelligent, but I think the members of this site have an above average intelligence

What would be a great itinerary starting early May in Atlanta?

BudFrank comments on Mar 31, 2019:

Savannah GA and Charleston SC are good cities on the coast that give a nice ante bellum feel. There is a museum in Charleston with the Hunkey, tjenforst sibmarine ever. Farther up the SC is Myrtle beach, the birthplace ofnthendance called the Shag - a form of swing. There are also a few lighthouses on the NC coast such as Cape Hatteras, and the outer banks (re: movie Nights in Rodanthe).

What would be a great itinerary starting early May in Atlanta?

BudFrank comments on Mar 31, 2019:

The North Carolina mountains are nice. Asheville is beautiful. You can catch the blue ridge parkway in Georgia I believe and follow it up

Help! I have a date.

BudFrank comments on Mar 31, 2019:

Please let us know how it went afterwards

Help! I have a date.

BudFrank comments on Mar 30, 2019:

You are not a loser! Etant bilingue en français est une bonne chose. If you’re at all like the pictures you found on the internet you are beautiful. Some of the guys here really drool over redheads. Every friendship/relationship you have teaches you better what you don’t want and what you want.

Making progress! Bought generator, sent out mail delivery papers. Still need auxiliary battery, etc.

BudFrank comments on Mar 30, 2019:

Way to go! Glad it’s moving ahead. ?

I just want to tell everyone I am so pleased to have found this site.

BudFrank comments on Mar 30, 2019:

This site is a good place to get understanding. The like button isn’t working so I’ll give your post one here. ?

For anyone who's had kids.

BudFrank comments on Mar 30, 2019:

That’s what grandparents are for

I knew it! ??‍♀️?‍♂️ ????

BudFrank comments on Mar 30, 2019:

Yikes! Such deep thinking. ? since my like button is not working.

Settle for moderate to boring sex?

BudFrank comments on Mar 30, 2019:

Don’t settle

Just now read the article on modern dating terms listed above.

BudFrank comments on Mar 29, 2019:

Each individual is different so it’s hard to know. I’m sorry this happened to you. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone. Sending you a hug!!! ??

@FlippantLlama im horny posts (joking.

BudFrank comments on Mar 28, 2019:

I agree. Touch is my first love language, but I need a relationship to be more than that. It needs mental and emotional connection too

Gone bonkers..

BudFrank comments on Mar 28, 2019:

That’s my motto.

Good day to all! Heading out to Aurora, Colorado today for my birthday weekend.

BudFrank comments on Mar 28, 2019:

Enjoy!

If The Twilight Zone Was Southern! 😅 [youtu.be]

BudFrank comments on Mar 27, 2019:

Yes, that looks about right

Every so often, this particular topic comes up.

BudFrank comments on Mar 27, 2019:

Don’t feel an obligation to do that. It is by no means a requirement.

Hello to the group. My name is Elaine. I am 61 going on 35. Wow, where did the years go?

BudFrank comments on Mar 27, 2019:

Welcome to the group. I think you will find like-minded people here

Well, hail!!! It doesn't last long when it's 60 degrees, and it's still raining.

BudFrank comments on Mar 27, 2019:

Normal, unfortunately.

Normally, the weird dreams/nightmares don't bother me so much, but every once in a blue moon one ...

BudFrank comments on Mar 26, 2019:

I am sorry for your grief over this. Hugs!! ?

BudFrank comments on Mar 26, 2019:

Chocolate cake and milk for breakfast! Wonderful!

Hello My Darling Friends.

BudFrank comments on Mar 26, 2019:

Good morning!!

As most of you know, I was otherwise occupied over the weekend but kept an eye on the group to see ...

BudFrank comments on Mar 25, 2019:

Good for you! Thank you

Have you seen him?

BudFrank comments on Mar 24, 2019:

I saw him in Ohio

I DANCED in the kitchen this morning! I celebrate moments like this, because with the neuropathy, ...

BudFrank comments on Mar 24, 2019:

Yeah. I’ve got neuropathy too

Good Morning Everyone.

BudFrank comments on Mar 23, 2019:

Would be nice

How a "Normal" Person Tells a Story vs How I Tell a Story.

BudFrank comments on Mar 22, 2019:

I’ve seen almost the same thing about ADD people telling stories. That resonates with me.

It's so hard not to laugh at my own depression.

BudFrank comments on Mar 22, 2019:

Laughter is good. I won’t give you any other suggestions but keep on with the laughter.

Today is a better day...so far. I've learned some lessons...that's all I can say about yesterday.

BudFrank comments on Mar 22, 2019:

Learning lessons is good. What you have to do to learn them is a not always enjoyable.

Everyone stop what you're doing!!!!😅 Google: Florida Man, then month & day of your birthday.

BudFrank comments on Mar 21, 2019:

11/25 Florida man seals 12 inch subway sub, stuffs itndown his pants, makes his getaway on a bike.

Finding this journey to being fully single full of twists and turns.

BudFrank comments on Mar 20, 2019:

Sending you a hug for today. I know the feeling. ????

Does anyone else on here enjoy a waltz, quickstep, etc?

BudFrank comments on Mar 19, 2019:

I took some ballroom dancing classes before And maybe was the cause of my knee going bad. My favorite were cha cha and rumba

I need some advice.

BudFrank comments on Mar 18, 2019:

A little weird. But whatever you decide, you know we here will support you

Update on the man who was a little "off" on the phone.
