friends often tell me that they're always surprised at how content i am at being at home by myself all the time. it sort of started just happened... all the people i really cared about moved away and i didn't feel like the ones left were worth much of my time. but yeah, i'm the same way... i spend alot of my time alone and don't mind it... well, usually. especially after going through two years of ALWAYS having somebody around. i needed a break. and of course this weekend i become as social as i've been in a while and it bites me in the ass. go figure.

1. i'm much more reserved. i used to be more touchy-feely when i was always drunk, though... and often get that way when i'm drunk nowadays.

2. nope. too many childhood horror tales involving religion, god, and my family.

eddie quote of the day: "'what is it lieutenant sebastian?' 'it's just the rebels sir... they're here.' 'my god man! do they want tea?' ' no i think they're after more than that sir. i don't know what it is, but they've brought a flag.' 'damn! that's dash cunning of them.'"

1. I'd have to say reserved. Although I like to be touched by pretty girls of course.

2. Sometimes, however I don't see prayer like most. I see it as asking the universe for what I think I need and then the universe answers if flows with the lessons I need to learn. I don't believe things happen without reason. Although we may be unable to see the reasons for them from our limited perspective.

1. touchy feely when i know what's going on... don't like someone coming up to me and notice that they're touching me... if i notice it = bad... although i'm a big hugger, i'd rather hug than handshake... weird...

2. as often as i can...

I'm a total introvert, so I'm pretty good with not going out much... except when people give me a hard time about it, or tell me that it means I'm depressed. If I think people think I'm depressed, it's just depressing!

1) Not really.

2) No.

1No i am reserved as hell
2Only to satan:wink:

yes, sometimes. it really depends on the person. there are people I've known for an hour and want to hug, and those I've known for yuears that I don't want to get anywhere near me.

I've only ever seriously prayed twice.

Yuck indeed.
it's like this, long distance relationships are hard. really hard. so hard that it seems reasonable to say "I don't get into long distance relationships." I did it once, it was too long a distance to drive all the time, and it was too hard for us. makin it work means it's REALLY REALLY good, so hooray for the Morgan. I'd say you're not really all that lonely, althoguh I can't know, but that you reserve a lot of attention towards the relationship, and that's not in your surrounding environment, so don't show up in the environment too much. if Nick was with ou in your living places, you'd just spend all your time with him, no, so it's basically the same.
It's not random, i's just natural and flowign from your current thoughts.
answers:
1. YES. for once, I can just give you a straight answer YES. I am incredibly touchy-feely. it bothers some peopel, I fidget. and touch everything. I'm filthy. I'm anything but reserved.
2. Hm. I have prayed a lot of times, I was very "involved in Jewish youth programs, which were mostly social things, but I was invovled in organizing writing and creating services, and we went through the motions a billion times. I don't REALLY pray though, in my own time on my own mind. I do believe in some sort of cosmic force of some kind, but I think that basically comes down to nature. I think there's a certain somethign that connects everything in the world, in that it ws all created from the same thing. that wmight as well be the same natural creative force that made the big bang in the first place, and the reason for cute littel intricate details that are found in common across so many tiny elements of the natural world. there are certain pattersn that show up down to a microscopic level in all different areas of nature, adn that's because everythign is being ultimately creaed by onw single source...you wanna call that giant natural machine and the force that keeps it workign and flowing "God", that's cool by me, find your own way to communicate with that, and rspect and cherish it..I guess that's praying.
-Hmmm...that wasn't an answer. No, but sometimes when I don't know what to do, I talk to somethign that isn't there.

Being alone rocks. There's definitely a difference between being alone and being lonely. Like Toreena said, you'd know if you were lonely.

I think you know where I stand on the distance thing by now. Or do you?

1 - It depends on the person. Most of my friends hug and such before we part ways for the eveningm or even at random points while hanging out, even some of the guys, 'cause you know how guys are. My friend Robert and I, as long as we've known each other, still aren't touchy-feely with ine another, for example. I like cuddling. That's pretty damned touchy-feely.

2 - Only to my coconut monkey.

01 - oh yes. very touchy-feely. most of my friends are not, though, so i spend a lot of time craving physical affection.

02 - i meditate, which really isn't so different.

1. Are you "touchy-feely"? Do you like to touch and be touched, or are you more reserved?

In public I am not into the whole touchy-feely type thing. I don't mind PDA's for other people, but for some reason, myself I like to just keep my relationship to myself. I like to hold hands and be beside my lover but that's about it. It's just weird for me. His friends have only seen us kiss maybe like 5 times at max, but lately he's been really into tickling me in public and I laugh, but I want to cry too...eh, I have issues

2. Do you pray? No, I don't.

1. i'm touchy-feely. i'm less so now that i'm back with my boy. i tend to get especially lovey with others when i'm drunk, and this always causes people to think i'm hitting on them. damn it. i just like cuddles and tickling and stuff!
2. i was raised catholic. there was a very brief period in my life around the age of 9 or 10 when i was deeply religious. i prayed all the time. at the age of 14 i lost all faith. since then, i have been an atheist. this greatly upsets my parents. so, i don't pray. however, i do think good thoughts, and hope that my positive energy will somehow reach the other. *shrugs*
