For him, maybe. Maybe it does it for her to be in her knees....
Or so I've heard.

This one statement pretty much invalidates your entire premise: they would not want to lose out on the sales.
See, retailers genuinely don't give a FUCK about plus sized sales unless they are solely a plus size brand. Otherwise, plus size women might as well be invisible.
For 3 years, I have shopped plus size. Prior to…

Well. At least Mrs. Timberlake has recovered from the napkin dress. Emma Watson is awesome, JLaw is gorgeous, and Lupita looks safe. Cate...I'm just impressed with how beautifully she [or her makeup artist] adjusts her skin tones for that palette. That's tricky.

You're probably right.

Given Lupita's role, is anyone else uncomfortable by his fixation on her? As if he feels entitled to her... Maybe I'm just reading too much into it, but I'm weirded out by it. She's amazing and gorgeous but....ewwww. Creep vibe.

Also. He mentioned having run across one of my former college buddies who had pursued him. He said it kind of freaked him out because she remembered him and started rattling off events, but still....it was a little nudge to see how I would react. Funny how hard it is to see that clearly when I'm sitting there…

Argh, narcissistic and neurotic, my two fav words to use when I'm dogging myself. I'm on it.

Example: I met MrBuckeye when I walked off an elevator at an industry event, he got my card, then used it to rig a drawing at the event and start an elaborate pursuit. (Ok maybe it was more "effort-cute" than "meet-cute" but still, So. Damn. Cute.)

Thanks for all your input. As for the IRL convos, that's soooo why I'm on Jezzy and even changed my avatar from my very recognizable photo. This is not something I can explain or tell anyone in my life(most of whom remember when I was engaged and then first married, and MrBuckeye finally convinced me to change my…

I read all your comments, and thank you for them. You've made some excellent points about how I see myself-points I only acknowledge even to myself on the rare occasion when I've had a lot to drink.

Can't say enough how much I appreciate all the points you made and sharing your own experiences.

Thank you, accepted with gratitude, as has been all your advice! I will be making a call Monday.

My son will be 3 June 2nd. I travel for work. I miss that little face, but man, he can be a turkey. I try to lay out all his clothes, down to the shoes, for the entire week, and ensure there are plenty of frozen homemade meals in the fridge, just so MrBuckeye only has to deal with regular craziness, and not additional…

Nope. Only child, spoiled but not rotten. Other than a purity obsession and a strong reinforcement of thin=pretty and thin=happy! my parents were pretty awesome. Determined that I be told I was smart and capable, instilled a work ethic, etc. I was and am really blessed.

I can be dramatic. I recognize it...but can't always stop the rhetoric when it's rolling. I get your points though. And yeah, ultimatums are not pretty.

Part of it is I never had the full deal. I had the bits and pieces and nights and days and everything on his terms. I romanticized the possibility. This thread has been a bucket of cold water-much needed.

Young Putin also looks like young Tom Riddle. Disturbing.

Dating is a euphemism for hooking up with at that event.

Ohhhhhh, myyyyy goooooooshhhhhh.... I don't see where I used restless, but that's MY word! I use it for myself all the time. I used in talking to MrBuckeye earlier. I am constantly seeking change and growth. I'm lucky to have a boss who gets it, and isn't threatened by my questing nature. But we're in the daily…

I love your name, btw.
