If you'd like, you can use the anony feature ... one of the few groups where it's still available.
Of course, since this group is is ... well ... not so active ... it probably won't be too difficult to figure out who the next anony requester of advice is ...
I just joined and wanted to say hi. I'm looking for some advice but don't feel too comfortable posting it in the group since it is open membership and it relates to a care2 member. Maybe I'll feel comfortable asking for help eventually.
I'm Lauren. I'd like to have a relationship. I've been single for quite a long time now. I'm good with ME. I don't feel 'needy' or anything like that. I have a happy life. It would just be nice to have someone to share it with, besides my children, kwim? Since 95% of my online life is spent on Care2, this seems like the most logical and likely place to meet a like minded soul.
Peace & Bright Blessings

Not that new to Love and Relationships but haven't posted anything in a while...
I'm from England, just moved back after 9 years on the road. I'm 32 years old and single. Have loved and laughed and hurt and cried many a time but have still never become bitter about it all. I'm sure there's somebody out there, it's just a matter of time and I'm very patient
No children although would love to be surrounded by them eventually... only time, that ever faithful process, will tell.
I am Dee..and it's wonderful to be here in this group..
I was divorced after 22 years of marriage..that was about 1993..Since then I have had two serious relationships..And too many dates than I really care to recall..
The last relationship lasted for 7 years..I am still friends with them all..Though I find it a bit hard to maintain an honest friendship with the last gentleman..
Looking forward to getting to know you all in here..
Spooky! Well, no worries if you're not here for interest in romantic relationships! We also discuss friendships and family relationships too. So bring whatever relationship topics you want to the table, all are welcome!
[send green star]
I'm Spooky. I've sworn off romantic relationships and am not quite sure what I'm doing here.
I'm really not 105 yers old.
I am a corrections caseworker, work full time, have a teenage son, 6 cats, a dog, a home in the country and all these things keep me very busy. I also host a couple of C2 groups.
I'm glad to be here and look forward to meeting new people.
Guess I've never introduced myself! Hello - I'm Johanna and I love this group. I've been married - been in relationships and finally swore the romantic ones off altogether. I do enjoy hearing about them and adding my two cents however. Hello to all!

The pix of NY look familiar as well. Don't want to get too personal with ya, but my Uncle worked in that same area of Manhattan and was there when the planes collided into the WTC. The story you tell is almost the same one he told me other than the fact he was in the office when they hit and got blown back onto the floor after seeing the burning paper, and watching the second plane hit.

My name is Vanessa, live at the Jersey Shore...never married, no kids...why? Probably because I work and commute 15-20 hours/week to and from NYC....and I don't take any BS from men!
I might WANT to find a nice man one day, BUT I DONT NEED ONE! I'm independent,strong willed and workout ALOT! and VERY SPIRITUAL! God is actually my number one MAN!
Hi my name is Brandi....I am from Mississippi. I am a divorced mother of 2 and I am egaged to a wonderful man....I have read most of the posts here and I think this is a wonderful group

Just officially checking in. I'm a people..ist, and will speak up if anything seems sexist. Don't even like any traits designated as masculine or feminine. Just wanna be sure everyone feels free and supported to be who/however they are.
I've always known my friends very well and for 15 years I lived in an extended family and for the last 15 I've live in an intentional community. So I've known a lot of people more intimately than is usual. Things sure aren't usually (I just changed that from 'always') as they seem ....which I've found out from experiencing many relationships, day to day, from the inside. I think it takes patience and a real open minded committement to really know another person.
I look forward to getting acquainted with some of you.
Juliet! Well, if there is anything you want to discuss with anything "unpleasant" in your relationship, feel free to bring it here. You can even go anonymous if that makes you feel more comfortable.
[send green star]
I am Juliet, 21 from Bulgaria and i have been in a relationship for the past year. I am doing my best to be myself with my boyfriend- although it means that sometimes i am unpleasant.
I can see on your profile that you are new to Care2 and this is your first group. Good choice.
Feel free to join conversations and start your own threads with anything you'd like to talk about.
There are lots of nice people here so I'm sure you'll get lots of support.

Hi, my name's Jocelyn. I know I'm younger than most of the people here and probably don't know much about love/ relationships, but I've been really impressed by the advice and compassion in the posts and I think I'm in love for the first time, so here I am.

Hi everyone. I'm a divorced, single parent who is now going back to the dating scene, for which I'm slighting intimidated by. I've been divorced for about 9 years but was in a committed relationship after the divorce for about 6 years. I guess you could say that I'm newly single again (my last relationship ended the end of 2004). I'm looking forward to getting to know you all.
Uno Good morning right back atcha...except is isn't morning any more! Ha all this graduation preparation is making life zoo-y! What else is new!
Greg: Thanks for the support and encouragement...I have no trouble talking to strangers in line at the post office or where ever (understatement) but it is just a bit none the less. I'll keep you all posted - should make for some funny stories at least!
It's easier to get back into dating than I would have thought. Or I've just been really lucky maybe. Just go out and have a good time. People pick up on that pretty fast.
My best advice is go places you normally wouldn't and talk to people you normally wouldn't. One cool thing is going out alone--then you have to talk to new people!

Welcome to L&R! Can you share your favourite Chilean wine secrets with us? Kidding...love wine...love Chilean wine...I'll ask again in a week! (The wine glass made me think that you would have some ideas.)
Hi Leah is my name I am from Canada I am 46 single with 2 grow up daughters . I live with my oldest daughter who is 23 and work in a womans clothing store.
Hi guys: Ron, here. GWM living in lovely Asheville, NC. Have been making friends quite quickly lately and have been loving it! My dog, Dijit, is my "kid". Hope my lifestyle doesn't offend anyone here...
I laughed again! Great photo of you, Austin, and Megan! Gentle giant is a warm, affective, loving name! I feel your pride and love with your family. Thanks for sharing your photo.
May you have a wonderful weekend with your family.
Just thought that you would like to see the kids! I am 5'6" and wearing heels! Austin is a great kid and they call him the gentle giant. Megan is a petite thing only three years younger than he.
I always say the guy started out eating every two hours and still does!
Anyway...glad I could make someone laugh (besides Amos!!!)
LOL to you, Catherine ... "I gave birth ... and he's mine, all mine ...!" If I was on a rolling chair on a bare floor, my laughter would have sent my across the room crashing into the far wall! hahaha.
Cat your post started with Greg I can understand why Joy got mixed up. Maybe we should change the theme to one where the names are better visible.
I hope 6'6 Austin will not have an identity problem

Hi, I'm Joy (born around Christmas), originally from WI, experienced Sedona and Flagstaff, AZ, then moved to sunny CA (Santa Cruz and now Monterey). Single since late 80's. Friends with my ex, his wife, and his relatives. Actively "looking," and laying groundwork with assists, such as, Attracting Genuine Love (www.hendricks.com) (course combines audio, print, and visuals -- aligns one's whole being -- so far, an effective practice!). Marriage offers over the years, yet resonnace wasn't there ... still friends with most. Feels good! (like this group! I appreciate everyone's good input!).
Sincerely,
Joy

I joined a few months ago when I realized I would soon be dating for the first time in 15 years at the ripe old age of 36. Everyone is really helpful in this group, and the advice is great.
[send green star]
Well Catharine, let me formally you to the group! You can never welcome one person too many times ya know? I look forward to hearing and sharing with you all of your personal insights to love and relationships. It sounds like after becoming "newly single" you may have a lot on your mind.
[send green star]
I am Cat (don't let the Catharine fool you) and the now single mother of two teenagers 17 and 14. I have had so much craziness happen this year it is unbelieveable...! My new motto should be "Bring it on!" because it hasn't really stopped me.
I hate anyone being taken advantage of....I love 'to do' too many things to list. I am a 'people person' and I think I can be fairly intuitive. I try not to rush into judging or condeming anyone (unless they have undenyably hurt women or children - then get out of my way!!) I really enjoy meeting new people, especially from different countries, because we grow from our experiences.
I am new to care2 and really impressed by all the posts! The hosts are awesome ; )

Have had 5 children by 2 of my wives, Oldest is 32 then 29 and 14 youngest is 6. we had a child die, Alice,she would have been 11
Still married right now, but have been apart but closeish for 3 years, so right now class myself as single, and perhaps just as importantly so does she.
My first wife died, seconed was just a -------, and 3rd ?hmm complicated.
So I guess Im now ether an expert on marridge or a compleat clutx, havent made my mind up on that one yet.
Hi all! hmmm, about me... my name is Sheri, and I've been married for (counts on fingers...!) yikes, it'll be six years in June, lol!! Everyone says we're still in the newlywed stage .
