In true FB fashion, I'd like to know what's on your mind? I found myself asking this in an internal dialogue that reads more like stream of consciousness than anything else. I wanted to know what I was thinking. It's funny when you put awareness to it and ask yourself this directly, you might end up overthinking it and in trying to discern what you are thinking about, you end up thinking that you're not thinking anything. So that's where I ended up - I'm not thinking anything and therefore I am not. Lol. - I think therefore I am so if you do the opposite, are you disproving existence? God, I'm clever. Anyway, once I got past the whole "I don't exist" dilemma, I got back to thinking about what I was thinking about. It's 2018, a new year, new beginnings - let's all go out and conquer the world. I feel like I should be thinking about that and along these lines, but I'm not. I'm not even trying to make pretend that I'm thinking like that and not even attempting to get to that space cuz it just doesn't feel right. What I came down to was this: I feel like I'm overall in a state of flux, not knowing really what to do but knowing 100% at the same time. Feels like I'm stuck in the ethereal transition between 2 areas but feels very much like I'm not part of anything. Anything as in life, I suppose. It's weird. Kind of sounds like a midlife crisis, but I can't have a midlife crisis, can I? lol. Perhaps. This whole thing probably makes little to no sense, and that's totally fine. It's just what I came up with when I asked myself what I was thinking. I wanted to share something random instead of just posing the question. So, tell me what you're thinking.

I'm thinking: Why haven't you messaged me and did you ever get over that hangover?

I'm thinking that I need to reply to some PMs that I've left standing, it isn't polite to leave people hanging. As you may know it's rather rude, to be in something of a lazy mood. To finish off this rhyming post, I mustn't overlook the host. So PretzelTwist I can relate to your opening ramble, as I am often prone to amble. Or to be more exact and to take more care, I have felt in the pat neither here or there. I can safely say it's perfectly normal, and the manners which we deal with it shouldn't be formal. Oppurtunity comes to us when we need it the most, and I hope this ramble has amused all fellow members and thehost.

Would I have put a stop to the getting-to-know-eachother-process sooner if he was AB?

Would I have put a stop to the getting-to-know-eachother-process sooner if he was AB? I can absolutely relate to this question. I have invested far far FAR more of my time and energy with disabled men, who if they were AB, wouldn't have lasted more than a few minutes, if any, in a conversation. Even knowing and understanding the whole dev response I have, I have still done it. It's kind of disheartening, really

Exactly lucretia ! I am also well aware of the effect a good-looking wheeler has on me. And this wheeler had a huge effect on me. I am absolutely positive that I wouldn’t even had a single date with this guy if he were AB. On our first meet-up, he made me wait almost three hours to see him. If he was AB, I would have left after half an hour wait – tops - and told myself “I am worth more than that”. I don't think I would make huge sacrifices on the character front when it comes to relationships. I need a guy to check quite a few boxes character wise but during the dating process it is different. With wheelers, there is always this feeling of “maybe I miss out on a great guy if I dismiss him so quickly”. So I usually start giving myself lectures that sound something like this, “He appears to not be really sensitive on the phone/ in messages? Maybe he is different when we meet again. Or maybe he just communicates differently than me. Or maybe it just takes him longer to open up. Or maybe he has never learned that it’s okay to show his sensitive site. ” “He’s watching TV while we talk and I feel like he isn’t listening to what I am saying? Maybe he really can concentrate on what I am saying while he’s watching TV. Some people are indeed very good at multitasking.” I could go on and on … With ABs it’s different. I am usually not instantly attracted to them, if at all. So I might go on one date with an AB because “maybe he’s like totally awesome personality wise”. And even if he is, I will probably not go on a second date because “there was no spark / I didn’t feel attracted to him”. But maybe also because “there was this (tiny, tiny, tiny) thing that mildly annoyed me about him and I am sure that’s just the way he is and the way it will always be”. I don’t give him the benefit of a doubt or a second date to show me a different side of him. Aargh, dating as a dev can be frustrating as hell.

I'm trying to think what I should be thinking? whatever it is, it should be funny. funny enough that anyone who reads will think "wow, this guy is really funny. I bet he can have any woman he wants. I wish he were MY bf. sigh, then I'd truly be happy"
it hasn't quite come to me yet. but, when it does. I'm sure it will be hilarious!!

To be simultaneously unsharing and unhelpful; I think you need to chill.

I'm thinking about how much I don't want to go outside and go to work.
It's about -5 F and we're getting up to a foot of snow tonight. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I'm in a brace and on crutches, awaiting surgery, for a ruptured ACL, so snow and ice are NOT my friends this winter.
