What a hilarious thread!!
Married 37 years!! Yikes. And boy are we Mars/Venus- that is our code words for when we have reached impass and need to move on!!
I like to say rhetorical things...I don't want an answer-just an agreement or an 'uh hum'
ex- watching sports on TV together...I say "wonder why he would do that"-like you know, just small talk. My husband will analyze the entire play and what the guy did so we miss the next play. I say, Jer, I didn't want to know all that- I was just sayin'......he says, then why did you say that? I thought you really wanted an answer.
But we don't learn from that.....it happens every time! Now my new code word is RHETORICAL!!! don't wanna know specifics
our other disconnect is in directions....I am the big headline reader....He reads the small print.....
Just tell me what you want done....he wants to explain everything in minute detail like I am 6 and not 60!!! :D
Conclusion Samson??? It may be more like brains are just different period!!! ;) And Lord I don't know why HE made us all this way!!

These thread might wasn't meant for me to post in, as I am not married (and I wasn't in the list (haha, just kidding)), but, oh well, I have already write in.
i just wanted to mention that the list moises was referring to above, was one that samson listed in his initial thread. i posted something about this list late last night, but, apparently a mod decided to remove my post without any explanation as to why.

I removed your post Claudia because I thought it was unfair of you to suggest that part of Samson's post was unnecessary because he named people and it was cliquish. Give me a break, I don't hardly know Brad at all but I know that was not his intention. I moved your post because I thought your comments were unnecessary and inflammatory.
A clique? I can probably count on 2 hands the times I have talked to anyone here by phone or in person (not counting meeting some at a conference) Ask the other moderators or members how much I correspond with them by pm or email, hardly any. I probably make some upset because I don't respond. Just because twenty or so members are regular posters does not a clique make, anyone can post. Why did Brad mention some names and not others, because if you look he pretty much covered the spectrum of all the different characteristics of the members here and the world in general. He did not mention "chestercheetah", "dan" or "delandus" because they have not posted and given him a chance to know them (PS not picking on you guys or gals that don't post ;) ).
I did not feel a need to comment to you as I did not see a need to make a mountain out of a mole hill, but you insist so here goes. I don't know what the problem is with you in the last several months, but the tone and undertones in your posts are getting old, at least to me. If you don't like the forum, the direction it is going, the moderators, some of the members or anything else then you are under no obligation to stay, nor is anyone else.
As a moderator I don't need the worry. I don't need the worry about someone getting their feelings hurt, or one member not getting along with another, or threads straying away from any semblance of truth. I only move posts on rare occasions and it is usually to stop a problem from happening before it picks up steam. To all members, we are not special. We are humans with all the flaws of everyone else, we here are no better or worse than every other poor sap living a crummy life in a dying world. Our probems are the same as everyone else's out there; the only difference is we know the "good news" and we know where our hope is. We also know that for every trial there is a purpose.
Some here are very sensitive, some are happy go lucky, some are serious, some are depressed, some are hurting. Do we sound any different than everyone else in the world? If you are a member of the forum and you look for a reason to get your feelings hurt, then guess what? you will find it here, so I suggest you grow a backbone. If you are happy as a clam and nothing bothers you then good for you, but remember some here are in a dark place. If you want to be serious about everything posted here then you will be disappointed because we don't take ourselves very seriously. If you are depressed don't expect the forum to dig you out, we can give you support and prayers but we can't change your circumstances. If you are hurting we can hurt with you but we can't stop the hurt. If you want to look for an ulterior motive of a person or their posts then I think you can spend your time in much more productive endeavours. If we all lived beside of each other I would probably be close friends with a handful of you, be non commital about the majority of you and could not stand a few of you. That is O.K and is typically human, but we all have a common bond that should allow us to overlook each others faults inside this forum.
So now that I've stepped on about everyones feet, have at me, I don't get paid enough with this gig to care. But I do care that God is using me for some purpose, though I do wonder what. I care that the forum stays halfway focused on the truths presented by Ray Smith, and I care enough to move some of your posts before you step in it too deep. Maybe another moderator will move mine.
