I forgot to mention your title that was also ....strange. "Ugh, date nite, once again" - particularly the "Ugh". that's what I couldn't understand and asked you what you were talking about. I've never in my life felt an 'ugh" feeling when I went out on a date. I had a choice in the matter of whether I wanted to spend time w/him and if I didn't, I didn't....... Treat yourself better than that. If a guy gives you an 'ugh' feeling, why would you feel obliged to go out w/him? Oh well ... we're all different, aren't we?
Oh good! Don't keep me in suspense......I want to know why a woman would go out w/an 'ugh' guy. Do your parents arrange your dates for you?
This is a perfectly valid question, and continually applies to this thread given the subsequent, equally nonsensical posts by the OP.
I don't mean to be disrespectful, but if this breaches your restraint, you really didn't have to post twice you know. And BTW, we used to say Jesus freaking Christ on a sidecar.
Ok, I apologize for the snarky remarks, but I get a lot of bs here. The ugh was for dating here in general, not for a certain guy. Have you ever spent 4 months alone in a place where you knew no one, spent all your time trying to sell a house in this market, and can't leave until you do? I hate going out alone, so mostly I sit here, aching for MY home, and to see my horse even though that may sound silly. And this tiny town, with people here that usually can barely read, much less speak, makes for a dreary world. It's not a pity party, just me being tired and irritated with the world, so the only guy I've talked to other than my brother's friends is the real estate guy, so... It was just a way to get out on a saturday night, so Ugh was the best word.
Ok, so you're stuck in a town trying to sell a house. I'm not trying to offend you, but it's not the other people in that town who have a problem - it's you. "With people here that who usually can barely read, much less speak" - change that attitude and you just might find some pleasant people to visit with....
I can completely empathize with your anguish on the above. I too, am afraid I may soon find myself facing the same bleak outlook. I have two that I hope to list/sell before the years end, and the market is far from resembling anything good. I wish you the best with it.
Thanks I think that people don't realize that it's not just A house but my brothers house, and I sit here day after day, looking at all the stuff he collected over the years, and stuff I remember of him, and it's just a lot more than just a house, it's the last place he saw before, well you know what happened. Someone just said that it was my problem if I hated this place, and disliked the people, it's hard for me to see it that way. Anyway enough off topic stuff, you should see Total Recall, it's 100 times better than the arnold one.
I'm sorry A. I didn't realize that either. I know it must be incredibly difficult. But, remember the words about "time". ...the house will eventually sell, and you can move past the frustration of dealing with it. *hug*
A house. Try my dead brothers house, filled with all of his things, staring at me day and night, while rednecks light fire pits in their front yards and drink beer until they pass out. It's not my attitude that needs changing. But thanks for your concern.
You said in your other post that you have lived in your deceased brother's house for 4 months now, hoping to sell it and can't leave until you do.... well, why do you have to live there? What about the real estate dude you dated last night? Selling houses is his business, why not let him sell it for you so you can get back to your life in your own home? You complain about your brother's possessions staring at you day and night... why don't you pack up everything but the necessities and put it in storage? Better yet, w/the exception of his things you & family would want - give the rest to a charity. We've all gone thru the loss of loved ones - it's hard to get thru, but life goes on.... As far as the neighbors drinking until they pass out - well, can't blame you for staying away from that, but there must be a few people in that small town whom you'd enjoy visiting with...... Anyway, I'm not being insensitive by suggesting you do something about your stuck situation..... I just think that you could solve your problem if you really wanted to.... but then, m/b you can't - who knows? Anyway, I do wish you good luck.......
Ok ,First.... I have to stay here to keep the insurance on the house and the real estate guy from last night is the one listing the house. Second...Everything that doesn't have a value to me has been given to Goodwill, and his uniforms given to his friends. His medals have a special meaning for me, and seeing as how he was the only family I had left, there's no one else to share them with. I'm sure we've all gone through the loss of a loved one, but we all haven't gone through the loss of all our loved ones, that's what I meant by being alone. I did enjoy hanging out with my brothers friends, but now they're all back in Afghanistan. And finally, I have been trying to solve this "problem" as you put it, but to me it's a labor of love, and no matter how I feel, I'll stick with it till the end.
Ok. Then this is something you WANT to do..... got it. From the sounds of your posts, I tho't you were unhappy and complaining.....sorry about that. I understand about losing your family - mine are gone, including my hunny - but still have my 3 kids, where I feel blessed, having friends who lost a child - one friend had 3 kids and lost all 3..... I couldn't handle that. Anyway, good luck in selling the house quickly and m/b you should invite that real estate dude over for a candlelight dinner to break the monotony.... Playing Scrabble is always fun....
Well, hello there, dude! You're back again.... still researching? Did you make it to your Madonna concert? How was she? Wait a minute.... now I remember hearing something on tv about her performance was so bad, the people wanted their $ back..... true?
Not as much. It is not until the end of the month. Why, are you reconsidering my offer? Yes, she had cut a show short in France, they were quite angry.
