Risking the Erika thing

But I may have mentioned before - at my wedding the Registrar thought the happy coupled to be married was me. and the best man

Took a while before folk on either side twigged what the problem was - fortunately it was in a country that did not permit that sort of thing...........otherwise could all have gone through smoothly

As I said, you know where you are with a Goat. And if it's marriage, that's probably in Idaho

Sad. Here i had joined the prestigious Single Sailors Seeking Soul Mate Group in hopes of being introduced into the company of like minded mature intellectual pirates each seeking their ultimate soul mayte, and alas I've found that it's now deteriorated into the juvenility of crude and smelly goat jokes.

Forever single...forever free I guess

DOJ, you are officially on my "list".


SaltyMonkey, with a name like that your commentary about dignity and decorum is rather hard to believe, but you have a point and in the spirit of seeking a soul mate let me ask you a question.....(for all the guys and girls too)

What do you honestly seek in a mate? (physical and emotional)
Why do you think you have not found her?




I will put my two cents in.
I am seeking a man who loves the ocean and loves boats, who is easy going, doesn't sweat the small stuff, has a spiritual life, does what he says he is going to do, enjoys his own company.
I am not too surprised I haven't met him yet, (that I know of). I have always felt that my guy is out there sailing not living in my town, though I am keeping my mind open. When I was in nursing school and living on land, I dreamt that my mate was sailing in crystal clear water under full sails. When I woke up and the dream was still vivid in my mind I became convinced it really was a glimpse of my mate. Also, I was equally convinced that it was the great barrier reef he was sailing off of, and that is why Australia is on my cruising destination list. Yes, a bit of a strange way to decide where I want to cruise to, but heck why not?

So, more than you all probably wanted to know (a lot more ) but I am feeling sage-ish today.

Cheers,
Erika

Yep.... they certainly can. Here's a new tactic for the ladies!

Scientists say more and more women are changing their sexuality in mid-life. Can it really be true? And what's the emotional cost? | Mail Online

has a spiritual life (I am quite big on religions. mostly banning them )
does what he says he is going to do (Yup - the trick is not to promise much )
enjoys his own company. (are you planning on leaving already??? or is that code for something? )
1 1/2 out of 8 is not bad for me. I'll book the church

Hey, who erased my no goats pic? Too big?

Well very sweet replies but none actually addressed the questions presented (hmm?). I bared my secret dream about a sailor man sailing off the coast of Australia, surely someone else has an insight to where they are in life and why.

BTW Salty, tell em to fly to Texas, I am in Texas! DOJ you are mixing religion with spirituality, two different species. Plus, we all know you are uncatchable. Surya, I loved that movie.

Seahag .

Cheers,
Erika
