Meh im very much anti arranged marriage so I think that makes me anti gay arranged marriage as well Im not doubting some arranged marriage couples are happy but just no theres no romance no fun it just goes against everything I believe in. I think rather than looking to have arranged gay marriages we should be looking to get rid of the notion of arranged marriages in its entirety. Alot of things worked well over the past 1000 years doesnt mean we should keep them going now that we have outgrown the concept and practice

I remember when we got a dog and had this naming crisis and had all sorts of names bouncing back and forth when my little bro stood up and said I know lets call him BJ (no not the shortened version he went the whole hog) Was one of the funniest moments I remember growing up until mum decided I should sit him down and explain what it meant and why it wasnt a good name for a dog. In the end we called him Kurt becaise he looked like one but i have more recently found that the name has to suit the pet so you need to give it a day or two and ponder all her little moods and one will come to you. Though if your still stuck ill see what I got in my head

Personally I look upon marriage as a religious ceremony. I see it as 2 people standing before their god to confirm their commitment to eachother Note I said their god, As I have zero interest in religion or many of the ceremonies attached to religion I have no interest in parrticipating in a marriage myself. I have been with my other half now for comin on 6 years, I dont need a church a priest a minister or a piece of paper to cement that relationship in my eyes and I couldnt care less about the legal/social benefits a marriage provides. I see it as an important part of peoples faith, or social structure and I understand people who want to marry its just not for me

funny that id love to move somewhere hot but I dont think id get sick of that quite so quickly hehe. Wanna swap???

Hey im Ara and I think your all certifiable. Oh and yeah ok so I have partaken in this filthy activity myself but it fills me with shame and self loathing hehe

I have 2 cats a Bengal called Nala who is trying to take over the world and is far to clever for her own good and a Ginger and White one called Basil who is content to sit back and let her get her own way at all times. The pair of them I think are collaberating with one aim in mind, to slowly but surely drive me insane but then I wouldnt swap em for the world. Its funny the other half is a dog person and the choice of pets may well be the only battle I have won and thats coz I had them before him I think

I think its their own choice. Coming out should be a personal choice and not one you feel forced into by the community at large, Yes for some people role models are nice but somebody who is in that position willingly and not forced into it through badgering and pressure would make a much better role model. Quite frankly anybody be that a celeb or a normal member of the public should be able to close their bedroom doors and get upto whatever they want (thats legal) without worrying if someones gonna run to a paper or film it and sell the footage

Ooooh this is fun. Like this so far nice how the charcters are all set out and what looks like some interesting developments on the horizon. Connor just seems so vulnerable and shy at the start and its nice to see him coming out of his shell and growing. I have only just started to warm to Jared tho. I dunno he just seemed to easily distracted by others and not really conscious of his effect on Connor. Hopefully with the next part of the story we will see him become more aware of these and willing to put a little more time into things i get the impression at the moment its more stolen moments than having any real time. Also have to say grrrrrrrr i want my 15 mins hehe

In Theory Yes in practise No It depends on how you percieve love. For me its the willingness to give yourself entirely to somebody, to trust to accept to make a place in your heart that is theirs and theirs alone. By my definitions and by what i look for in love its not possible on first sight. There can be connections formed and certainly lust at first sight but for me love is complex and needs to be worked on. When i first met Jack nearly 6 years ago it was lust. I wont go into to many details but i wasnt expecting him to stick around nor at the time did I want him to. Over time (yeah OK it took me 48 hrs) that view changed but it didnt start to change until we'd spent time together and listened to what each of us wanted from life and a partner and it didnt become love until we had established our boundaries further into the relationship

My take on life, its better to regret something you have done than wonder about what ifs. Nobody can guarantee it will work out but there is really only 3 scenarios that will play out here 1. You take a risk and it works out how you want it 2. You take a risk and hes not interested 3. You keep quiet and never know/wait for him to move Now personally option 3 for me would be the most painful to live with. Not only that but there is no closure to it you are forever left with what ifs

Thouroughly enjoyable. Hell of a ride hell of a tale and hell it had me so it has to be good. It really was filled with twists and turns like you promised as well Nephy and what started out as a kinky sex fest did tun out to be somewhat more, while still maintaining its 'more exotic appeal/ A definate 5/5 Kleenexes from me and as always it was also fun playing in the forums with the other 2 reprobates

This was when I read it and still is to this day one of my favourite stories on here. It pretty much cemented you on my readin list after you hooked me with Hostage and intrigued me with Love in Chains. I loved River from the start when we first met him although Silver was by far my favourite of the 2. I think he had the mystery and the charm and then when it came down to it he was also downright dirty in a good way . It speaks alot that with all that you have written and the other stories that you have given us this is still one of my favourite reads. Hell you even got a tear out of me and for that reason alone id give this story 5 shotglasses out of 5 Have to say I did get to read it all in 1 sitting which means I got to miss out on what I can imagine was some harsh cliffies that would have had me cursing you and generally making a nuisance of myself but to anyone whose thinkin about it or hasnt checked this out yet you really should and as for Enigma 2 im both nervous of and eagelry anticipating its iarrival

Watership Down left me devastated as a child, In fact I've never recovered. On the plus side though its left me emotionally hardened and I dont cry for anything any more

I apply the following criteria to Chat rooms, Web camming etc Am I prepared to have Jack look at what I am doing, read what I have done or walk in on what I get up to If the answer is Yes then I dont consider it to be cheating as in general cheating is done in secret, behind someones back and in a quite deceitful way. So I suppose Im saying it depends on the relationship your in ever committed monogomas relationship is different in some small way. That moral code has helped me somewhat, oh and personally i think camming walks a very fine line and straying just a little over that line would be cheating in my eyes

Do you count 2010 as the end of the decade or the beginning?
Ara replied to Y_B's topic in The Lounge
Wasnt the first year in the Current Calendar 1AD. In which case each decade runs from 1 to 0 so this decade would technically run from 2001 to 2010. However for the sake of nostalgia etc people group the 80s the 90s etc. I suppose it doesnt really matter but if somebody put a gun to my head and made me pick one I would have to say the end from a mathematical point of view -

I have Pro Monarchy rose tinted glasses so Im all for the state paying for it. In the end Im of the opinion the queen and her family bring in alot more money than it costs to keep them which is not the same for those penny pinching theives in the commons. At least in Her Maj we have a head of state that I am proud of. Can you imagine havin Cameron or Brown or Blair on our stamps and money. No for all their faults and yes there are quite a few I still think the Monarchy brings an awful lot to the country and is worth the cost. Constitutional Monarchy > Republic for me

hehe if I remember rightly Chavs where predominantely from the south as well until it took on a wider context. Now its just used for anyone who has watched, thought of, appeared on or is directly related to someone who has appeared on the Jeremy Kyle Show Other than that its fun to not only see the difference in words over large regions such as US v UK but even within smaller regions such as differing parts of the UK having completely differing meanings

So I was bored and flickin through IPlayer when this caught my eye http://www.bbc.co.uk...ng_My_Religion/ Seems to be quite a current and emotive issue. I thought it was quite well done the kids mother impressed me. Overall though it was definately worth watching if I had any complaints it would probably centre around the kid didnt quite convince me and the whole thing seemed to be a little condensed. Anyone who hasnt seen it though id say its worth the time. It may even get a tear from some of the less hard hearted amongst us
