That was a little low Felicity.

What was low...what did I miss when I was watching Deal Or No Deal?!

If you mean the lawyer joke, I thought it was funny...

Feel better?

Still though, I never saw or picked up on that kind of behavior from them so it would just be evil surmising and guesswork ... and I'd still like to think that they're not like that.

Felicity, I'm not saying your wrong ok, maybe you've not seen or heard this before, that's great. I really think most would not share such stuff, because it's so wrong.

I never saw this kind of behavior modeled by my mother or my sisters or my grandmother.

Never saw it modeled by my close friends -- either before marriage or after it. Neither I nor my close friends acted this way (intentional manipulation to draw some guy into relationship with us).

Haven't seen it modeled by most of the women I know in any kind of personal way. Like I said the women in my social circle which was the church circle didn't act that way. It was never even thought of by myself --- my mind certainly doesn't work that way. My husband would agree.

Our opinions are formed by our own realm of experience. Guess your realms of experience are outside of mine. All I knew was church, loving God and living for Him. And the friends I've hung with over the years were the same.

Here's the original post that we are all questioning now.

What was your intent in this post?

I think we are going in circles now.

It's okay Cupcake dear. I'm okay. You're okay. We're all okay.

But deceptive, devious, sneaky, dishonest, manipulative controlling behavior using sex or whatever to get your own way isn't.

God bless you all!
