HippieChick58 comments on Jul 7, 2018:

I think if you are making a poll you should pose a question and the poll responses would be potential answers to the questions, not questions themselves. That being said, I am not releasing financial information on a public forum ever. IMHO money will not bring you happiness, my ex is far better off financially than I am, but I am far happier without him. There is also a huge difference between dating someone and marrying or shacking up with someone. Yes, I'd date someone deeply in debt. Would I go beyond dating? Depends on how the person is handling that debt. Would I bail them out? Not likely. Same as for dating someone rich. Depends on whether or not they're a good person. Someone who is overly concerned for money, nah. Money is a tool that can be used for good or evil. It is not the measure of a person, just one facet of the personality.

HippieChick58 comments on Jul 6, 2018:

I'm 60, been divorced about 9 years. First love yourself. Make yourself a priority, do things you like to do, get busy having the best life you can have. Then if you still don't meet anyone your having a good time anyway. Yeah, I can see advantages to being in a relationship, tons of them. However, I can't make it happen and I'm not going to tread water waiting for it to happen. If I find someone we'll figure out a way to make it work, if not, my life is working as it is.

HippieChick58 comments on Jul 4, 2018:

I've thought for a long time that some of the illegal stuff that Americans seem prone to do ought to be legalized and regulated. Prostitution is legal many places and the workers have benefits and regulations. They get health care and that can slow down the spread of STDs. Make pot legal like Colorado did and reap the benefits of the taxes. Other drugs could be the same way, taxed and regulated.

But I haven't found anyone in the past couple of years or more that I've wanted to develop a relationship with.

I have three adult kids that live in my town, one I know will be out of town today. I have no idea what the other two have going on, and haven't invited me to anything. I don't care about fireworks, so my plan is just to do what I wanna do and enjoy my day off. My actual plan is a nap sometime here shortly, and then work on one of my hundreds of projects and stay inside. It is 90° and high humidity so only feels like 100° outside. Too hot for me.

Depends on what the issue is. Have you seen my political postings, I'm getting more Liberal and proud of it as I age. My grass I don't give a darn about, I just don't want the twerps looking in my windows or messing with my garden. I curse at other drivers, put the damn phone down and pay attention to traffic! My motto is pick your battles and find your peace. I am concerned enough about the USA to chose to participate politically.

HippieChick58 comments on Jul 3, 2018:

I am pro life and pro choice. I think all babies should be wanted, welcomed and born. However, through personal experience I know it can't always be. I had a baby with severe neural tube defects (yes, more than one defect) that would preclude life outside the womb, and may have caused me to miscarry or worse. I had an abortion. The baby was wanted, planned and welcome. But **I** made a choice for **MY** health. This was more than 30 years ago. I would love for every woman never to have to make that choice. No woman makes it happily, but every woman has to make the choice for herself, her health, her family. I spent 20+ years in Christian communities and I have told my story several times. It shuts down arguments really fast. I have a sister with fertility issues, she used to cry knowing babies were being aborted, but she also supports a woman's choice for authority over her body.
