Re: Uh Huh
I mean, why in God's Universe would I think of that? I don't collect toys and I am not "fanciful".
It would be fascinating to see your chart. I'm so sure certain issues would come up that I could predict them beforehand.

Maybe Migraines cause telepathy?
I dunno, but I have migraines too.

Re: Maybe Migraines cause telepathy?
I suspect in some unknown "soul sense" we're related, which is why we can't stand each other.

Re: depends on your POV...
My mind is, and always was, wide open. I am therefore willing to seriously entertain unpopular ideas in the attempt to get to the bottom of things.
The women I have met/do meet (very rare now) are best avoided.

why...
Why are you so soured on women? What gives?
I've a strong notion that I've been through a helluva lot more than you when it comes to life experiences. Ever had your S.O. die?
Maybe a good resolution is some serious study and introspection? Life is short.

Re: why...
I should say, "American" women, because I never meet any non-American women. American women are so bombarded by expectations in the form of societal projections, that they have no time left to just be themselves and simply "relate" in the simple, natural sense, and so I always seem to end up talking to a blank stare. It is extremely uncomfortable. You can almost see women deliberately turn off the natural caring function because that is "weak" or "so yesterday" or whatever.
It's very sad, for me personally, as I really love women when they are free to be themselves (never), but much moreso for women, because they are laboring as a group under countless projections of the entire society, which can't be any fun.

Ever try to talk to a Thai Woman?
My wife and her brother know a lot of Thai Women, some of them are single. They came over here on a student visa to study at school and work. Their background and upbringing is Buddist, so they are not as materialistic as American Women. Thai Women always smile, always are happy, it is their culture. My wife is half-Thai and it is very easy for me to get along with her. Of course she is not submissive and she is not my slave, but we tend to share things 50/50. If any conflict happens we both agreed to talk and work things out. No fights so far, and most of what we worked out was finacial, usually me spending too much on credit cards for computer equipment. :)

Well, I think I'm alone for the duration. I have nothing to offer and really don't feel like telling college stories again. Thanks anyway.

Your choice
I could have invited you to one of my brother-in-laws parties at his house that a lot of Thai people go to. Or taken you to the Thai Buddist Temple when they have a food fair. Thai women are very beautiful too and very nice.

dealing in absolutes...
...making blanket assertions is never a good idea. I'm certain a small percentage of American women may be reflective of your opinion. However, the vast majority of us thrive on being ourselves and exuding not only natural, caring qualities, but also sharing our intellect, sense of humor, and more...
If I flipped your statement over and stated that American men are ego-centric, assholes that should be avoided, you'd more than likely tell me that I'm full of it, yes? Certainly, a small percentage of men are ego-centric, assholes, but the vast majority are not.

Re: dealing in absolutes...
You're a woman! No wonder you have a different reaction.
And of course I have "baggage". So I'm suspicious to begin with.
And you have a "life". So you meet other "lifers".
Not absolutes - empirical data. You can't even chitchat in the grocery line without being looked at like a cereal killer (haw haw).

There is a good person
inside of every asshole that is waiting to come out. Find that good person within you and let that person grow and overtake the asshole personality. Silver speckled horse? Read this: [link|http://www.thezodiac.com/dreamsa.htm|http://www.thezodiac.com/dreamsa.htm] Check out the book references. Also I checked this dream dictionary: [link|http://www.spiritireland.com/dreams/dictionary/h.htm|http://www.spiritire.../dictionary/h.htm] Horse \ufffd Balance; Powerful horse: Hands-on / Spiritual healer; Many horses: Hands-on / Spiritual healer
Would you say that a silver speckled horse is a powerful horse? Did it move, did it run/gallop? Being silver and speckled makes it special and unquie. So either it represents balance, or a hands-on / spiritual healer. So either you are trying to get balance in your life, or you seek a hands-on / spirutial healer.
