ummm, Phil, the Drive-ins have been closed for years. Not that going to the drive-in requires anything to be actually playing on the screen . . . . at least it didn't back in the day.

Arachne,loved your comment about giving hope to others. Sometimes love surprises us, a coup de foudre the French call it. Whether immediate, or slow growing, love is not about age. If we are open, sometimes the universe rewards us. Hey, initially Philly and I disliked each other intensely. Lol.

Aww that is adorable. It is true though the universe does in fact reward us. Seriously I am smiling I am so happy for the both of you.. Now when Philly gets to our neck of the woods be sure and take him to Salt Spring Island I think he would like it immensely or any of the other hippy infused gulf islands.lol Can see him now bongo drums and dancing about with the rest of the hippys. You two would have a blast ^.^ of course must see pictures too..
 
Arachne, I intend to take him to Saltspring Island, which is only a short ferry ride from where I live. My son's father has family there, so it is familiar territory. I too can see Philly drumming away. Perhaps we will see you there? Thanks so much for smiles,

and all positive energy you send our way. This empath recognises and appreciates your positive "signature" immensely. Time to break out the special brownies! Namaste!

Wow - everyone is conspiring to bring me to SaltShaker Island!

I fit in well with hippies - I'd feel right at home. I'd wear my old elephant-bellbottom jeans, a flowered shirt, beads, a fully-loaded .45 on my hip, my fighting knives hidden about my body, my sword-cane ...

Oops - fell out of character there. :eek:
 
Happy 4 U. Ain't love grand. But I gotta wonder, if this the usual cyber-fantasy island stuff, or what?

FYI, Salt Spring Island hippies (as well as most others) have gone extinct/old decades ago ago and joined mainstream society, except a couple of religious cults that would welcome converts. As the real estate moguls have bought up property big time, if ya want to buy a hugely expensive condo/townhouse thing, then its the place for you, otherwise, take your tents and dried fruit.
 
Cookie, I guess I know a different Saltspring that the one you mention. I don't know any high fliers, but have friends who own modest houses on the island, where they have been for decades. I was there recently, and noticed a large number of "hippies" in residence, of varying ages. I enjoy the laid back atmosphere, the organic food, the arts and crafts et al.
 
Shali, the people I know on Saltspring vary, anyone new can't afford to find a place to live there unless they purchase or have some money (so-called hippies don't seem to have money IMO), according to numerous friends. A good friend bought a new townhouse recently, but she has big bucks.

I OD'd on hippies long long ago, so pretentious and immature to me now. Anyone who calls themselves a hippie is a poser IMO, so sorry, I'm not enamoured or impressed by anything hippie-like, after having been part of that scene and seen so many aspects of it when it was in its heyday (late 60s).

I appreciate crafts and arts but I don't consider artisans hippies. I know all about organic food and all that jazz, but I have trouble with the glamorization of hippies (a term which is phony IMO) as it was made up by the straight world way back when. Yes laid back atmosphere is nice, but most hippies are stoners who are looking for a free ride IMO.
 
I'm new here, but belong to a few other forums, so am not alien to the possibility of finding a relationship online. I met my second husband that way.

My congrats to Phil and Shalimar, may you both be happy :) and thanks for having hearts generous enough to share one another with the rest of us.
 
I have a theory for those of you who are single and perhaps looking. Forums and chats, not dating sites but just random chats are better. You can get the feel for a person's personality without the pressure. I mean on dating sites for any age people are trying to show their bright shiny self. On open forums you can read people a bit better over time. Jus' sayin'...So S and P where's the honeymoon???
 
I mean like my credit score is bad. Try to find credit with that...We formally divorced so his is good and mine is bad. See how that could benefit us if we need to find alternate housing? Really stuff you have to explore.
