A Confusing Sense Of Respect

ActiveMind @AgoriphobicPirate (303) 3 Jul 17

It's been ages since I've been here, but I noticed an incredibly smart tactic used by a poker site and very much felt the need to share my strange and unbalanced feelings about it. Obviously the people who make these sites are...

Do You Believe in Fate or Destiny?

Michael Brown @dragon68 (757) 8 May 17

Why I ended up attracted to "bad boys"

Tina Arnold @Coffinspire92 (38) • Spring Mount, Pennsylvania 22 Dec 15

It's really not my fault actually. I didn't have a choice in the matter. From research that I've done, I've come to realize that we don't actually pick our partners. Rather, our parents show us what we want in a partner....
