WHEN A LIGHTBULB TURNS ON!


Good afternoon NoStrings friends!

This is another beautiful day and so far I feel pretty great I thought I'd write another post and I had a "Ta Da" moment: y'all that have Blogs know how so many people glance at our Blogs but they don't make comments? Well, there's certainly nothing wrong with that! Some people continue to visit off and on and some become Watchers (My Watchers: thank you! thank you! thank you! I liked being "watched"---haha!) It occurred to me that it make be nice to go to the profiles of the people that look at my Blog and thank them for doing so! I try to remember to always thank those who comment on my Blog when I respond to their comments. It also occurred to me: why haven't I ever wished those people a Happy Birthday if I see it in time? I thought of this because yesterday I had a doctor's appt and upon check-out the woman wished me a Happy Birthday (and that's not until April 18th!)

I've said before that I think NoStrings is a community of sorts. Oh yes, it's primarily a dating/sex site. I just think so many of us use it for so much more whether or not we're having meet-ups and encounters. We all have those we like to message or comment on their Blogs. We become Watchers of some. We like to send flirts, be friendly and have some online "friendship" whether or not we plan to seek sex or not.

I have had relationships with three men that were sexual since I joined NoStrings several years ago ( though not doing that now). One continues to be FWB. One I don't see any longer but we stay in touch by e-mail. One man I'm no longer in touch with because he moved out of state after he got married and now they have a one-year-old . But we stayed in touch for awhile after we were no longer sexual.

So, I want to make the most of my contact and time on here. I want to show caring and interest. Feel free to give it back

Have a great week, y'all!

I appreciate your sharing and particularly because you and I think/feel the same way about it We on this site can indeed give one another support about not only matters in our lives that pertain to the goals/needs of such a site but about other things, too. And yes, honesty with ourselves and others is priority! We want respect for who we are/what we want or don't want and MUST give that to others as well. Thanks for your comment and visit again!

I can not sent my viewers a thanx for visiting message, as I can not view their profiles, and do not know if they blog or not. I love my commenting watchers, but I also love those quiet ones. I just wish I knew them.
