He should have offered anal, too.

"Darrell" was the local tough kid who took on all challengers and usually knocked out his opponent in about one minute. He loved to pick fights. If you heard that Darrell was looking for you, a kid would be tempted to enter the Witness Protection Program. Don't think people can change? Darrell went on the become a successful designer of Greeting Cards.

12 years old? I've had my mattress so long that there's an outline of my body that resembles the Shroud of Turin.

Interesting video about "The Kilted Coaches"learning ballet. A brief bit of butt at 7:08. I'm totally into the professional dancer in green shorts.

Getting my 1st vaccine shot on Monday. Fort Liquordale won't be far behind.

But in your picture you've got a full head of hair. Concerning the OP, it sounds to me like maybe you've got a low-grade depression. People often over-eat when they are depressed and lack motivation. Depressed folks 1)feel like there's very little good about their lives; 2)feel like the future is pretty hopeless; 3)the problem is ME, not my circumstances. Along with @Monarchy79 (and others) excellent advice, I would encourage you to see a therapist to help you identify your feelings, process them, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, set some goals (and SPECIFIC STEPS to achieve them). Therapy is not meant to be "rent-a-friend" - it's about CHANGE - what do you need to change to make your life more enjoyable (it could be a change of thinking about yourself, change in your daily routines, change in who you hang out with). Set SMART goals (specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, time-limited). From your posts, I am sure you have the intelligence to make changes, I suspect you just need a professional to help you get going. Bon chance. To help you find a therapist in your area, this list might be helpful. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists

I understand Unicorn's exuberance about receiving the vaccine (I get my first injection in a week and already feel some exhilaration). However, I also read in the NY Times that researchers still think it is possible for a vaccinated person to be a spreader. For a fuller explanation, you can read the article at: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/08/health/covid-vaccine-mask.html

I see where Putnam County is dry in a lot of areas (i.e no alcohol sales). People are sometimes amazed when I tell them that out of 120 counties in Kentucky, 38 are entirely dry – no alcohol sales, no bars, no exceptions. Only 32 are completely wet. The rest are a mixed bag. Too many Southern Baptists. Anyway, Nashville is a great place. I have found some really hot escorts there as it is only a two hour drive from me. Nice folks in TN, except the ones who "blow theyselves up." Welcome to the Mid-South. We put the "ALL" in Y'all.

Morality is usually defined as the rightness or wrongness (goodness or badness) of an act. It always involves a person's values. Certainly, there are various degrees of rightness and wrongness. Some acts are plainly wrong e.g. killing for no reason. Some acts fall into a gray area - there are shades of good and bad. Paying for sex is not "good" in many value systems (esp religious) even though many who practice religion also engage in prostitution (usually as buyers). Does any "good" come from prostitution? Some rely on it for sustenance. Others who have no other outlets have their lusts satisfied (what the church calls "the remedy for concupiscence"). Does bad ever come from prostitution? Some connect drugs to it; others say it is demeaning and cheapens sex. I personally would say that the morality of hiring depends on several contexts that only the individual can determine. I doubt that it led to the fall of Rome as some have speculated, but I also believe that stable, monogamous relationships stabilize a society. From a religious standpoint, I am personally hoping that God (should She exist) will take into account whether one was a caring, honest, giving person rather than whether he paid to get his rocks off. It didn't seem to bother his Son who used to hang around with prostitutes and found them closer to the Father than the so-called religious folks.

I thought of switching to Vanguard (their Index Funds are great) but I think they just did away with Bill Pay which I rely on heavily - having my bills paid automatically each month w/out worrying about them is very convenient.

Suggestion: look at market summaries for 2020 and see which sectors (e.g. Energy, Utilities, Healthcare, Tech) have been depressed during the past year, go for the (quality) bargains. There might be some bounce left in a few high-flyers, but, like they say "Buy low, sell high." The good income/dividend stocks (e.g. VZ, T, JNJ, ABBV) are near 52 week highs - no money to be made right now - wait for a big correction - with a new president you never know when the big players will bail - they scare easily. I like Fidelity Funds b/c they have a ton of research available including "risk," "ratings" (per Morningstar,etc.), as well as all the technical info. Bon Chance and Bonne Année!

A Tale of Two Cities: I remember what David Letterman said on his show when the "renovation" of Times Square started in the 1990s: "Hey, Rudy, America has the whole rest of the United States for DisneyLand, why not keep Times Square for adults?"

Oh, can it be that it was all so simple then Or has time rewritten every line And if we had the chance to do it all again Tell me, Would we Could we? Memories, may be beautiful and yet What's too painful to remember We simply choose to forget So it's the laughter we will remember Whenever we remember The way we were Remember, the way we were.

I had one escort texting me on his journey to my hotel. The last text I received was "Turning now onto your street." Then.... the dreaded silence. It would have been interesting to find out what actually happened, but I doubt that I'd ever get the true story.

I'm guessing "hot as f**k" though I often see "hot asf" as well.

I once had a housemate who was "FBI" (Foreign Born Irish - he was actually from Ireland) who used the F-Word three or four times in the same conversation without compunction. Only he pronounced it "Feck." I'm not sure if it was just him or whether the Irish are just not as startled by the word. His friends from Ireland used it a lot, too.

Who went to Harvard??? State university here.

As someone with a Master's in Social Work, as well as Masters in three other (non-lucrative) academic domains, I know this first-hand.

Reno Gold s a good example of how a person can become very successful w/out a degree from Harvard, Yale, or actually ANY college. There was an article in WAPO yesterday that asserted that, according to a recent study, student nurses from some community colleges make more than some master’s degree recipients from Harvard University, and that electrical and power transmission installers with associate degrees from a community college in West Virginia earn $80,400 in their first year, or more than twice the median income of bachelor’s degree recipients generally. I also agree with those who sense that Reno Gold seems like a great guy, displaying his "assets" in a savvy, marketable manner; and three cheers to his donation of $27,000 to the Elton John Aids Foundation.

Just about ANY home repair - get an expert who knows what they're doing (and bills for their expertise) rather than the guy on Craigslist or somebody's uncle. Don't ask me how I learned this.

You're not in charge of your BF's behavior or the Sugar Daddy's behavior, just your own behavior. You can share with BF how his new behavior makes YOU feel (be specific, give recent examples, don't do archaeological digs by bringing up ancient history) - use "I statements" not accusatory "You statements" - and stick to facts, not mind-reading or conjecture. Maybe he is unaware of how his behavior is affecting you. Whether he chooses to make changes or not it's HIS decision. If he doesn't change, then you must decide whether you can accept this new behavior, or make your own changes, including whether to continue the relationship. Usually, changing your own behavior will cause your partner to make changes also. Having done couple counseling for many years, I had waaay too many folks drag a partner into therapy and say "Here, change him, make him act like I want." It doesn't work that way.

I enjoyed the article that @Luv2play cited. I enjoyed even more the "Comments" that readers of The Times made regarding the anxiety associated with "frivolous sex" during a pandemic. One comment especially provoked a chuckle: "Maybe I’m old, but I’d settle for being able to go to the grocery store without worrying it’ll kill me."

Maybe I'm just old fashioned, but I would feel very uncomfortable with someone taking ANYTHING from my home without first asking, and I would be very hesitant to invite that person back again. But, that's just me.

I, too, have resolved to eat healthier in the New Year and to stop buying all the sugary crap I pick up at Sam's Club (I also shop at Costco but they don't seem to have half the sugary snack food that Sam's stocks). I heard something the other day that kinda makes sense: 25% of what you eat keeps you alive; the other 75% of what you eat keeps your doctor alive.
