Living your life
Ladies: which virtues of the 3 do you prefer?
Faith, Hope or Love in your life?
Faith, Hope or Love in your life?
RE: Living your life
Mousetrap your answer shows bravery. You may be the exception and I say that in a good way. I think most people would rather "believe" than know the truth. There are many ways I could support my statement but I think the easiest may be that few people are capable of changing their minds or opinions no matter what facts are put in front of them. Another illustration may be the difficult topic of religion. For most people religion involves "faith." And faith is basically saying I believe in something without verifiable scientifically supported facts.
RE: Living your life
Pete, respectfully, you are making a false distinction. Ultimately "truth" is based on what we feel is right, what is "obvious." We can agree on what truth is once we are satisfied we know.
For me, I don't think honesty and faith are opposed, necessarily. Instead, honesty, love, and faith are aspects of living mindfully. And so none is more important than the others, because that would be to follow an idea of how to live... a principle... rather than simply living as a whole person.
But I do like Caramelli's answer :).

RE: Living your life
Interesting reply. Especially this line: Ultimately "truth" is based on what we feel is right, what is "obvious."
Some believe we literally create our own reality. Even some theoretical physicists are moving towards this position postulating that the universe is a hologram or there are an infinite number of universes.
So..a big part of me says there is only "one truth," but I am happy to contemplate that we all create our own universe.
Always fun to talk to you Seems......keep on posting.

RE: Living your life
Thanks Pete! always good to hear what you have to say.
My reference... going a bit too far afield... is the skeptic philosopher David Hume, who held that any rational argument boils down in the end to what your gut instinct tells you. There are no innate ideas, he maintained, there is only that which you experience in life and the relations of ideas you apprehend.
Perhaps that is also to say if there is one Truth it can't be found by rational thinking.
As for the notion that you create your own reality, I prefer to think of it as a dance. Perhaps (likely in my case) you just improvise as you go :)

RE: Living your life
In Russia we have three Saints corresponding to those three virtues: Vera (Faith), Nadezhda (Hope), Lubov (Love). And their mother Sofiya, which means Wisdom. So, to my mind - no use to choose between all good things if you are wise ;).
questions that shouldn't be asked
I know hosts want to have a sense of who the person is they are hosting. But some personal questions seem inappropriate to me.
Questions like: "Are you married?" - I imagine many of the guys who come here are married. And if they are they may be dealing with some underlying guilt in visiting a host here. Or maybe they don't want to be thinking about their wife when they are enjoying -- or hoping to enjoy -- virtual sex with a beautiful host. Is it really necessary for the host to know this?

RE: questions that shouldn't be asked
Agreed. That question is a real turn off for me. I would add also, What is your work? and also saying I love you and acting as if they are boyfriend and girlfriend. Seriously? on the first visit?
RE: questions that shouldn't be asked
i could see that some people would want to keep that information private, particularly those whose occupation would suggest they should not be visiting this kind of site.
Perhaps a better question to ask is "Tell me about yourself" and leave it up to the person to say what he or she thinks is important to share. Pointed questions, specific questions, can be very uncomfortable when a person wants to remain anonymous and protect his/her privacy
I'm sure the hosts, too, have questions that make them uncomfortable.

RE: questions that shouldn't be asked
what is wrong about asking what are you doing for life? nobody asking you how much do you earn :P i like to know what my members are doing for living for sure:)
RE: questions that shouldn't be asked
I think from his post, it's not so much that YOU would know more about him, but that it reminds him of who he is, and maybe he feels guilty being here when he is married, you know that he is being unfaithful to his wife or something.
RE: questions that shouldn't be asked
OOPS! my reply was meant for StrawberryKitty not Casablancka
RE: questions that shouldn't be asked
If he feels guilty about being here then maybe he shouldn't be here
RE: questions that shouldn't be asked
Well, im a very curious person and i ask both question, not like i care about your profession, but im interested which field you re occupied in, maybe to ask some advices, personally i see nothing wrong with it and all the information stays between us only i guess? you can keep it in a secret if you like anyway, why not to say it direct that you wont discuss something ? im sure we all have topics not to be discussed on here
RE: questions that shouldn't be asked
I personally would feel I was being rude telling someone i don't want to discuss something.

Awww dear, u a sooo sensitive man, better i will put your name to block list, for no way offend your delicate soul, with sooo horrible questions about ur marriage status))))

RE: questions that shouldn't be asked
if im asked if im single or taken i will answer however i will return the same question to my viewer i never ask that questionn first. its not something u outright ask a person but then again varies from person to person and is built on a mutual trust. Trust is earnt between two people and is fragile thing. and one can't behave like a bull in a china shop if you get my drift , asking about someones career i dont see the issue in that at all.
also its good to know if a person is married in the case they might need to vanish in a session and it comes across as very rude if they just vanish from a chat same goes with a host also. mutual understanding and respect we are all humans after all treat others as we ourselves like to be treated. Mutual respect goes a long way and diplomacy super important in every aspect of life and todays society. some of us are getting intimate physically so what on earth is the issue to embark on a Psychological intimacy with the right person even if he or she is a host or viewer?

RE: questions that shouldn't be asked
I really don't care what a host asks me , no need to make this a big issue on the forum
RE: questions that shouldn't be asked
Doesn't appear that anyone is making it a "big issue". IMHO the question is a good one, and has generated more responses than most. For that reason alone, the post should probably be commended.
RE: questions that shouldn't be asked
Who cares what question you are asked? If you don't want to answer don't answer sounds pretty simple to me. Its normal conversation really with anyone. If you meet someone on the street and they ask something do you get all bent out of shape?
RE: questions that shouldn't be asked
Personally, I find no fault in anyone asking any question of me at all. And to take offense at questions of the kind that anyone would normally ask of anyone else when first meeting them seems weirdly sensitive of a person - a guy especially. Hell, this place is meant for indulging fantasies anyway, right? Yeah, of course - so just construct a persona and play a part while you're here - leave your real life for the real world and answer any question in whatever way you find most amusing.
RE: questions that shouldn't be asked
Sounds like you are having your own issues about your presence here. If you feel "guilty", that's your problem, and not the host's. If it bothers you, figure out an answer you are comfortable with - an honest one might be a first choice. Seems to me that many viewers' fantasies ultimately lie in true friendship, forgiveness, and yes...maybe even love. An important - maybe the most important - element in that "fantasy" is honesty. Of all places, why would anyone be afraid to discuss that here? Do you fear that a host may take advantage of your honesty? Would it make you feel too vulnerable to be honest?
That said, your post has generated some good discussion, which has often been lacking ever since screen names were required to make a post. This board used to be much more honest when unregistered pseudonyms were permitted.

RE: questions that shouldn't be asked
Well said & very insightful. I can understand that a host or member might want to keep some aspect of themselves quiet and hidden. But I think part of what sets CC apart is the potential to make intimate and strong connections here. You can define that however you want, or not at all. What do you need, what do you desire, what do you offer? And I would say that honesty and openness offers a way to the deepest of connections..
RE: OK, now it's MY turn to weigh-in
Very off topic but ........... Maybe you dont use the metric system very much -10lbs 14 ozs = 4.93Kgs
RE: OK, now it's MY turn to weigh-in
that was a rather judgmental statement. Obviously he intended it as humor. and as he said, mis-typed the 2nd reply, which should have been evident because the last two digits were accurate
RE: questions that shouldn't be asked
Gee, you guys, no idea I would set off such a firestorm of discussion.

thank you
Sometimes, I forget to thank the People who make my life in so many ways so happy. Sometimes, I forget to tell them how much I really appreciated them for being part of my life important . Today is the perfect day to thank all who have supported me and believed in me, especially when I went through a very difficult period here ... So thank you, all of you just beeing here....
RE: thank you
Well said Mouse. Hopefully all of us, wherever we are and whatever our circumstances, we should take time to thanks those who are an important part of our lives as well as all the good things in our life. I'm sure that your many friends here, including me, are thankful for knowing you.
RE: thank you
I rather have to thank you, Mousie: many times I call you 'my lovely trap', but be sure I don't consider you as this. It's more like a spontaneous organic bond: and when I feel a little down, be sure your smile cheers me up quickly. And you're always welcome to me, in bad times or good times. So again, thanks for being here!
RE: thank you
Sorry, Cat Trap, that you have had experience the difficult times, and I do hope you will have a bright days ahead of you ;) xx
Happy Thanksgiving...
From a nobody to everybody out here.....

RE: An earworm
Don't criticise what you don't understand (Bob Dylan). Look up first what an earworm is, in the figurative sense of he word!!! And embalm yourself in your arrogance...
RE: An earworm
Interesting Fil, now I get it. Adele and a catchy piece of music that continually repeats through a person's mind after it is no longer playing.
Goodbye.........
I Hope You Dance...........

RE: Your favourite
You mean English as in from Great Britain? Poe was American, and there are many great American poets.
Among the British, Shakespeare, John Donne, William Blake, Percy Shelley and John Keats are the ones the come to mind immediately. Many more to be discovered I'm sure.
