Re: Survey says...
1) Would you make a fool out of yourself in public if it meant you were making your partner laugh? Yes, I don't embarrass easily so why not.
2) Do you prefer the lights on or off during sex? Off but I don't mind them on.
3) If you could 'take back' your virginity from your first partner, would you? Nah, it was a good learning experience
4) Would you ever start a relationship with someone who was still living with an ex for financial reasons? No, I don't think I could trust them in that situation.
5) Would you rather have a great friend you could share everything with or a great lover you can't really talk to? A great friend
6) Do you like kissing in public? A little bit but not over the top making out or anything
7) Did American really put a man on the moon? I'm kind of torn on this one
8) When fooling around with someone, do you sometimes have sexual fantasies about other people? I have before
9) Is it possible for full-figured women to be equally attractive as thinner women? I think so
10) Do you think the family of a murder victim should have any say in what punishment is given to the murderer? This is tough because I do think they should have a say but at the same time I think their emotions would get the best of them, so I think it's probably best for a third party to decide
11) We are all human; do you judge someone for a past indiscretion? No
12) What is the sexiest part on a woman or a man? I love when a guy has nice shoulders. As for a woman, I'd say probably boobs.
13) Would you rather have your dream job or your soul mate for the rest of your life? Soulmate since I don't have a realistic dream job in mind
14) Should your mate also be your best friend? Yes, I think the strongest relationships are those where the partners are truly best friends.
15) Have you ever had a true one-night stand? Nope
1) Would you make a fool out of yourself in public if it meant you were making your partner laugh? Yes, and I do regularly.
2) Do you prefer the lights on or off during sex? Off, I hate having to look at myself.
3) If you could 'take back' your virginity from your first partner, would you? No, he was a nice guy.
4) Would you ever start a relationship with someone who was still living with an ex for financial reasons? Probably not. As I've gotten older, I've gotten wiser about finances. I always tell Chris I was attracted to him because he has two pensions
5) Would you rather have a great friend you could share everything with or a great lover you can't really talk to? Great friend.
6) Do you like kissing in public? Sure. Not sloppy kissing, but a peck is fine.
7) Did American really put a man on the moon? As far as I know.
8) When fooling around with someone, do you sometimes have sexual fantasies about other people? I have.
9) Is it possible for full-figured women to be equally attractive as thinner women? I believe so.
10) Do you think the family of a murder victim should have any say in what punishment is given to the murderer? To an extent. You would have to consider the emotional side of what they want.
11) We are all human; do you judge someone for a past indiscretion? Sometimes. For example, Chris was married once before. If his marriage had failed because he cheated (he didn't), I may not have wanted to get involved with him.
12) What is the sexiest part on a woman or a man? I like eyes, smiles and butts
13) Would you rather have your dream job or your soul mate for the rest of your life? Soul mate.
14) Should your mate also be your best friend? I don't know that he has to be your very best friend, but should certainly be a good friend!
15) Have you ever had a true one-night stand? Yes, and it was awesome. I felt like a million dollars after.

In a heartbeat--and I have done this.
2) Do you prefer the lights on or off during sex?
On.
3) If you could 'take back' your virginity from your first partner, would you?
HELS no! Losing my virginity was a long drawn out painful process, and I'm glad I got it over with someone else the way I did. Now I can enjoy sex with hubby, and I have a healthy sexual history that makes me more comfortable and confident in bed.
4) Would you ever start a relationship with someone who was still living with an ex for financial reasons?
wait, what? I don't even understand this. I'm married. I wouldn't recommend this for anyone single though. No financial reasons warrant living with an ex.

friend

I don't like it any more than kissing in private. I just like kissing.

never. I live in the moment.

11) We are all human; do you judge someone for a past indiscretion?
Yes. But only when they don't learn from their mistakes (which is usually most of the time).

So.... work or love? Love.

Sure. Mine is.

Yes.
An intelligent fat girl is preferable to a skinny dumbass anyday.

Oh Voldy, you're my hero.
1) Would you make a fool out of yourself in public if it meant you were making your partner laugh? Absolutely. Hmm, who do I care more about... my happy, laughing husband, or a bunch of strangers I won't probably ever see again? 2) Do you prefer the lights on or off during sex?On. I think my husband is hot. 3) If you could 'take back' your virginity from your first partner, would you?Nah. We were young, we loved each other, we'd been together over a year, and it was the first time for both of us. It actually wasn't horrible. And we stayed together for like four years after that, and we're still friends. 4) Would you ever start a relationship with someone who was still living with an ex for financial reasons?I don't think so. I think that person is in too complicated a situation to really invest themselves into something new. 5) Would you rather have a great friend you could share everything with or a great lover you can't really talk to?Friend. A great lover is good and all, but if we couldn't talk, I'd get bored. 6) Do you like kissing in public?A peck, sure. Full on making out, tongues in front of strangers? No thanks. 7) Did American really put a man on the moon?I'd like to think so, but I'm skeptical. 8) When fooling around with someone, do you sometimes have sexual fantasies about other people?Just LVoldemort. 9) Is it possible for full-figured women to be equally attractive as thinner women?Absolutely. I think a lot of what makes a woman sexy is being comfortable in her own skin, regardless of what size her pants are. I think someone who'd answer "no" or even "IDK" to this question has a specifically not "attractive." And that doesn't require "asking a man." (stepping off my soapbox now)10) Do you think the family of a murder victim should have any say in what punishment is given to the murderer? Nah. I think that falls into a kind of hazy area and could get really messed up really quick. 11) We are all human; do you judge someone for a past indiscretion?It depends. Murder? Yeah. A parking ticket? No. But I think this means to ask if you'd hold a grudge against a potential romantic partner for cheating for someone in the past. So yes, yes I would.12) What is the sexiest part on a woman or a man?On a man, shoulders. I love big man shoulders. My husband has freaking linebacker shoulders and I love it. 13) Would you rather have your dream job or your soul mate for the rest of your life?I haven't figured out what my dream job is yet, so that would be nice. But I still say soulmate. 14) Should your mate also be your best friend?Best friend that you hold a little higher than the rest of your friends and can tell anything to? Yes. Best friend that you do EVERYTHING with to the point that you don't do anything with other people? God no.15) Have you ever had a true one-night stand?
Nope. I'm a relationship-slut. Every person I've slept with has been someone I've carried on at least a six month relationship with after. I don't judge people who've had them. Just not for me.

I'm just saying I can only relate to my experience. I can't help I was born this way.
I think a man who looks at women as being attractive would know better than me.
Wow, really? But you did have the audacity to point out that you were giving you "thin" perspective.
Since starting to date my husband almost 2 years ago I have put on almost 50 lbs, and I know that I am just as attractive now as I was 50 lbs ago, it is all about how your carry yourself, it has nothing to do with weight.
Plus, the people that feel the need to point things out, such as your "thin" perspective, are usually the ones with low self esteem. I would really like to rip you apart night now but I will save my comments for someone more worth while.
Well yes, this along with the fact that we're like, half the same person. Which I love.
ten-tenners' may siggy: me & mama on my wedding day
What's LittleMissNewlywed Cooking?
See? How is you sharing your experience different than me sharing mine? You had a good experience with your husband & so did I.
I don't have the authority as a straight woman to say what is attractive. I am not attracted to women.
That's all I have to say to you, since you are so "offended" that I am a different person/body than you.
Bonny, no one is objecting to the fact that you have a different body than anyone else. We get that - some people are smaller, some people are larger. What is being objected to is your tone came off as a bit nasty/superior. While that probably wasn't your intent, it is how your original post reads.
Also, are you saying you can't view women as attractive? Not at all saying sexual attraction, but you're saying you can't look at women of different builds and say "she's attractive/beautiful" or "she's not" since you're a "straight woman"? I'm a "straight woman" and can absolutely say some women are attractive. I.e.: Kate Middleton, Catherine Zeta Jones, Whitney Thompson. They're all different builds, but are all absolutely gorgeous.
All kidding aside.....
Anyone else have "born this way" by gaga stuck in their head all the time now due to this thread?
no?
yea........
And I'm 100% not lesbian and I can adequately distinguish between beautiful women and ugly ones.....*shrugs* I'll come answer this xan soon I promise

3) If you could 'take back' your virginity from your first partner, would you? Oh my god yes, so much. He was a nice dude, but I had NO feelings for him whatsoever.

That video creeeeeeeps me out.
I've never seen the video...I literally hate her face. Like any time I see her, I have to walk away or turn it off because I just get angry. I just think she's so stupid.
Oh, Good Lord! Could you BE any more self-pitying?!? I think I speak for the majority of us when I say that I don't hate you, because I don't hate anyone, but I find most of your posts to be horribly annoying in that they seem to be purposely inflammatory. The only thing I find worse than someone who always follows the crowd is the one who thinks it's somehow way cooler to be always fighting against popular opinion. Either one makes you a big fail at being true to yourself.
