Do you like the opposite sex?

I am only interested in someone's personality be they male or female. Having been married for 45 years, been there done that as far as relationships are concerned. If my husband died I would have no interest in another partnership, even if anyone was prepared to put up with me!:)
 
Do I like the opposite sex? Do I like the opposite sex???? I LOVE the opposite sex! "Took a bite from the apple with two bites gone and shouted 'Euphoria!'"

Beyond the romance of interactions with the opposite sex, there's just something refreshing about women. I enjoy being one of the da boyz but love being in the company of the opposite sex, too . . . as long as it doesn't get to "girlie". That's a sure way to get rid of me.

Girlie? Us? Never!

Would you believe Viv, I couldn't think of a thing that was girlie girl today, that there isn't some guy interested in as well. I was going to ask TG if that meant he wouldn't come to our Tupperware Party, but hey, guys like Tupperware too. I thought of jewelry party, lingerie party (what guy wouldn't want to come to one of those):anyone:
 
I agree Denise! my marriage took work at times, there were times I wanted to divorce him, but I loved him!

I can't imagine any relationship that's been going for a long time that there weren't arguments.

I know it isn't always the case, but when I hear "we have never had an argument" I used to wonder, wow, that's amazing. Until I got into a little psychology and found out that sometimes in those cases, someone is not speaking their mind. I know that it is good to hold your tongue at times, say things in a loving way rather than just barfing them out in anger, but I think there is a lot to be said for a good, healthy, fair fight. Not one where there is hitting, or screaming at one another, but again, a fair fight, no hitting below the belt type.

"Fair Fight", you say? Interesting concept - never heard of that, I'll have to look into that someday. Not sure about the "not hitting below the belt" part, though - that's pretty much a staple of how I fight.

For ALL of us dwarfs, actually ...

I never said I "knew" what I was talking about.
 
Phil, in the context of marriage, fighting fair means having it out about the current issue, without dragging in every past dispute and unresolved issue.

Hubby and I once went to a marriage encounter weekend where the rules of fighting were spelled out.
From memory, some of them were

Have the fight. Don't bottle it up.
Fight fair. Stick to the current issue.
Tell each other what feelings you are experiencing because of the issue.
Don't blame your partner for those feelings. No garbage dumping.
Hold hands while fighting.

It seems to have worked.
 
I hear you Phil, I have half-brother that used to beat the *<~®»#: out of me, at nine he broke my lower back playing leap frog, and I spent the next year at the Shiners hospital for a year. I finally got the courage to pick up something and go at him. Now days he loves to tell people how I use to lay him out. And I do mean out cold. Scared me. He didn't quit though until he almost went to jail for throwing me out a second floor window. I have never hit anyone else. :hiteachother:
