Compliments: In Which We Flatter Shamelessly.

To play, you have to compliment three other vegwebbers. That's the only rule. There is no penalty for taking extra turns.
hanashi - your posts make me laugh out loud on a regular basis lately! ;D
little2ant - your relentless struggle to become a successful black woman one day is inspiring. SHHHHHHHH! 8-)
secondbase - umm, you came back. And you brought all your awesome with you. :-*
We had a thread like this a while back and I thought it was time for a reincarnation.
Compliment! Go go go!
1. Details, lotus! You got to meet uS?!? Was it a supervised visitation?
2. I don't know if I'm polyamorous. I like being in a relationship with someone who is emotionally monogomous, but I don't care if that person is physically monogomous. I don't think that casual safe sex has any bearing on a relationship except to make my partner feel even more sexy, which works for me.

HH that is one of the most rad things I have ever heard anyone post. Anywhere.
ooooooooh, i wish i could meet sarah!
It was a brief meeting. She came to the hfs while I was working. She seems very sweet and I wish we could've conversed a bit more...lunch or something. Her mom took a quick picture of us and she said she would post it.
Ha! I'm imagining that, lotus. Instead of speed dating, it's speed meeting vegwebbers. I can't wait for the pic.

that's funny, HH!
I love Shelloid's avatar! It just looks like you are so rocking out and you totally don't care who is around/can see you. It's very inspiring!!
:-[ I really didn't care as I was far far too drunk!
shelloid makes me laugh!
:-D
bp, rainbow...I am so flattered! :D thanks for feeding my ego. it's too small for my liking right now, and I feel like it needs to grow a bit before the weekend, during which I will be meeting up with some hotties (maybe even with potential! well, from one at least).
Rainbow, you're the third person who's mentioned fighting for me on vw. Why aren't people this into me in real life?! heh. That would be some fight though.
haha! i'm glad i could make you feel all hott-n-stuff. ;)
have fun this weekend. and i'm SURE that people are into you in real life. i never thought they were into me until i got married and THEN everyone came forward with their, "yeah, so i have liked you for x amount of years, blah blah blah" confessions.
and i just have to pause and think, "seriously?".
i've gotten it four times in the last week alone. where was that back then?!!
i like hh because of this statement:

do you know how fricking awesome i think you are right now?

Yeah. I had to shanghai someone into taking me to Prom back in the day (nts: that doesn't work very well). Never had 1 date in highschool and darn little in college. Then I met my DH and got engaged. Suddenly guys were popping out of the woodwork.
I think that a person who knows they are loved exudes confidence and well-being and that is attractive.
i just figured it's because there's no risk of anything happening from it since i'm already married.
:o
Laurenlovesgoodies, I have a secret crush on you... just 'cuz!
Awww....really?? *blush* I love love love your short short hair!

this is actually pretty hot and i think there's a good degree of logic in that sentiment
OK, since we're on the topic.....
I don't get polyamory! How is that ok? And why would I choose a partner who didn't completely satisfy my sexual needs? Like, if I think of my most secure relationship I'd ever had, the thought of that dude putting it in another chick pretty much would have made me sick--not make me think he was sexier.
Like, I just can't wrap my brain around it. How does that make sense at all? I guess I wouldn't get emotionally involved with someone who was lacking something in the sex department, which I had to seek elsewhere? Like, what would be the reasons for seeking this third person? For when your main person isn't around? If I were emotionally monogamous with someone, this would hurt my feelings. And if it didn't I would doubt the integrity of those feelings.
Aggghhhh, my brain hurts. Someone explain.

to be honest - i don't think there would be anything to explain. i think it's just a matter of acceptance that different people are wired differently and think differently and have different perceptions of what is acceptable/enjoyable/desireable in a relationship.
for me, it's not to say that i'd do that, or not to say that i wouldn't - i think like anything - any decisions made are based on the will of the participants involved in the relationship.
to me, and i honestly say this respectfully - it's sort of like - well i don't find men attractive. I can't understand how guys find guys attractive - not because i think it's wrong, but because it's not something i can personally relate to. So at some level i just have to accept that "it is" and that "i don't feel/interpret/interact" w/the world in the same way - and that's about it.
that's my $.00002 worth anyhow :)
Yeah, I mean that makes sense. The whole thing is just so counter-intuitive to me. I'm not saying it's bad, I'm just saying........wow, I really really don't get that. And I like to understand things. Like, I wish I could read the diary of a person in that situation.
