We are social creatures. That loneliness makes us search out others, relationships. The premise is we are stronger in groups. Evolution developed the group mentality long ago. It was those people that survived to pass that need onto their offspring. Those that lacked the need of a group...

Nineteen Eighty-four. You would have to understand the means of which that anyone could observe your aware activity. There is also the question of, why would they observe? Is there observation of all eight billion souls on the planet? Is the observer one of those eight billion? Are we...

I think we are (some of us at least) hardwired to not be happy. Discontentment leads to change. We must progress! Welcome to the forum. Here's hoping you can sit still long enough to bring some of your unique experience to the table. :)

Common interests just break the ice. Anyone can get along. It only takes the willingness to. Welcome again.

I had a bad day yesterday, but I got through it and I'm still smiling. :)

Hellow StarTwo. There is a bit of a paradox in not paying attention to unseen things. But it doesn't make it wrong. :) I think there are two kinds of lonely. The kind where you want people, that tiny crowd to play a game with, to meet at a diner on a Saturday morning. And there is the...

I think the prevalence of the internet has forced us to face words. When I was a teen I never had to write a word. Listening, I don't hear things quite right. Me trying to replicate a tune is evidence of that, and my kid has no hesitation about letting me know. If you can't hear right, you...

Porn doesn't count? Have you seen their profits? Please accept this in the humorous vein it was given. :) ETA: Here and two movie streaming sites.

I like the accent. I know... if you are British you'll say I'm the one with the accent.

I'll take offense to that. It's not that I believe in nothing. I just don't have confidence in the reality of a deity. Your personal belief is more inclined to answering only to your belief than those others that don't have your belief but are content to accept that you believe it. Tell me...

I think forums are populated with people looking for answers. Those that have the answers are busy using their knowledge elsewhere.

My bad. Brain fart. It annoys me that the teachers we entrust to molding our future leaders make five times less than the do-nothing congress men that simply occupy a chair.

This is usually the case in any altercation.

Amen Damned if we do, damned if we don't. I'll add, while we (the men) are talking about our wives, this is a personality issue, not a gender one. There are women with the same complaint about their husbands.

Most here have suggested that you take the leap and go your own way. I'll agree. I was leaving my wife of twelve years. She wouldn't share the relationship. Everything has to be her way. She begged me not to leave and triggered my innate guilt. Roomies with benefits, and then the baby came...

I've always been good at fixing things. Damn near anything. I've always felt I'd be the guy to have near in an apocalypse, I could restart the power plants, build the community center, keep the farm equipment working... I don't often fail at what I attempt to build or fix. Know what? It has...

Similar. She has to have what she wants. Never a notion to what I might want. It's not that she thinks I'm always wrong. I never get a full sentence. How could it be wrong? Make choices for yourself. If she can't cope with that, let her make the next move. One thing. If you control your...

Miracles have always happened. Eventually we find the reason behind them and they aren't miracles any more.

Been there. There was more aggression than I cared to deal with, and a lot of foolishness.
