A follow to me it's just a follow. I usually follow sometime who I like what they have to say. Though Some of my followers are their because of attraction as they've told me so. It doesn't bother me. And I don't feel obligated you follow sometime who follows me hths

ashortbeauty comments on Jun 3, 2018:

First of all, I'm glad you're here. Secondly, congratulations on a whole week of sobriety!! :) I can tell you still hold love for your ex, like she has some type of hold on you. You have to let that go hun. She is not the end all to your life even after 20 years. I know 2 people who had 20 yr marriages and ended up having to move on. They've done so and for the better. Your life is in the balance. You also don't have to sit home "lonely and bored". There's a whole entire world out there beyond your circle of familiar friends, your ex, and the drug lifestyle. Don't look for the same type of woman you've dated in the past. Look for someone with self-worth, confident, gentle, caring and giving. You **are** worthy. Another thing is that you can come here whenever you need someone to talk to or to vent. That's what we're here for- each other. Here there is a chat room that stays open til midnight EDT "Singles/Mingle/Chat Group". Plus our chat room hour is from 6-7p EDT (can be extended if people want). Both of those are great for real time conversations when you're in need of or desire one.

ashortbeauty comments on Jun 4, 2018:

At least there's this: "The Supreme Court’s decision, which turned on the commission’s asserted hostility to religion, strongly reaffirmed protections for gay rights and left open the possibility that other cases raising similar issues could be decided differently." And Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, joined by Justice Sonia Sotomayor, dissented. Although I do find it stupid that we have to keep having this same argument. It's simple.

ashortbeauty comments on Mar 2, 2018:

I enjoy sex in all of its ways. Mixing things up is exciting to me. So I said 5-6xs per week. The problem lies in finding that partner who is monogamous but highly sexual like me. Usually when someone has a high sex drive they're with multiple partners but I don't fly that way.

Should public nudity be legal?

ashortbeauty comments on Mar 11, 2018:

Don't "stone me", but I think no. These are my reasons. I grew up in a cult with major sexual abuse. Another example is the Catholic and Baptist churches with their sexual abuse stories hitting the fan. Plus intranet child porn being at a high. All of that to say it just provides too much more "easy access", in my opinion. There are simply too many deviants in our precious USA.

How do Freshmen-Juniors in high school have so much money, when most of them don't work?

ashortbeauty comments on Mar 18, 2018:

I grew hoop poor too. Only difference was there were chores but they were expected, we didn't get paid for them. This was also back when babysitting could be done by any teenager. So most of my money came from there. I was and am a saver not a spender. I think the parents who just hand over money are robbing their kids from a good work ethic, which they'll need as adults.
