  so my good ol soon to be ex father in law told me a few years ago (before i had told him of my horrible apostate ideas) about a "client" of his.

  my fil used to be involved in the insurance/finance industries.

  he had a lady client that was about 20 years older than him.

  If he is truly that devious I would be concerned for her safety.

  How can you tell?

  by free2beme in

  after seeing this time and time again on facebook.

  i have an answer.. how can you tell someone is vegan or a vegetarian?.

  answer - you wont have to, because they will tell you every single day over in over in food post, recipes and bragging about how good they feel.

  EMOTIONS can tear you apart....but, not if you IDENTIFY their SOURCE

  by Terry in

  2. experiences

  many people don't know why they "feel" what they feel.

  they fall in love with the wrong person.

  they cry unexpectedly.

  This is a brilliant topic Terry.

  Really made me think as I have been plagued by depression since as early as I can remember.

  Controlling black thoughts while feeling worthless and undeserving of either friendship or kindness is very hard but thanks to Lady Lee I managed to identify the source and am working on trying to give myself more value.

  I stopped bike riding at the age of 12 and re-discovered it at age 47. I love it!

  Edited to add: Most of my mad impusle decisions/purchases led by emotion or gut instinct have led to the most fun and I have yet to regret any decision made by this means.

  This site and the people on it are terrific

  It is like having a huge extended international family who all look out for each other.

  If I wasn't an atheist I would be remembering Jesus' words "by their love....." you know the rest.

  Sadly the first part was true and then she got better at self delusion and settled for drudgery for the rest of her life.

  Always good to hear of some-one finding freedom form the bOrg.

  Let's hope she is't too damaged and has a happy and successful life.

  Great news!

  Perfume / Cologne

  there are some perfumes that i absolutely just love and a little squirt of it can bring back such good memories, make you feel sexy.

  my favorite is dolce & gabbana (red), followed by d&g "the one", followed by coco chanel .

  on men, i love the smell of the original hugo boss - used to make my tummy clench in a good way .

  Loz, *waves*

  The Next perfume (not a copy, just similar) is called Nude and is £10 for 30ml. The other very similar perfume which is even cheaper is Lidl and called Suddenly by Madame Glamour and that is £3.99 for 50ml.

  I don't think either claim to be a cheap version or copy but whatever the "tones" I find so gorgeous and seductive in Mademoiselle are in these 2 as well.

  I hate, hate, hate Chanel No. 5.

  It was my mother's perfume.

  She never wore anything else.

  If I smell it now the memories of my childhood make me feel physically ill.
