Your friends sounds like she has some real serious issues. I'm sorry that your friendship had to end over something so trivial.

I feel your pain. I got unfriended by my granddaughter -- who actually lives with me rent and utilities and food costs free, because she didn't like a comment I made to something she'd posted. So I know how you feel about being bothered about being unfriended by a friend. Magnify that 1,000 times when it's a family member unfriending you.

It sounds like you really have your head on straight. I think you will be fine especially if you stay rational like this and stay on top of things. <3

I think so many people try to acquire a taste for alcohol - like it's something they have to do. I like that you aren't going to waste your money or time on something you don't have to partake in if it's not for you! Good for you :)

You say you despise Harry Potter, but for young adults it sends a wonderful message. It teaches inner strength, the ability to stand up to adversity, the will to continue through emotionally difficult times. What else can young adults read? Oh, yea, Twilight. The entire message from that series is how important a boyfriend is.

Because, honestly, they totally aren't. People do not deserve companions until they like hanging out by themselves. Being with someone because you fear being alone is like being a character from Twilight.

You don't really write like anything close to a grammar-nazi, untrained or otherwise. At best, you could be described as someone with a decent grasp of the language. Risk and wrist? I can understand that being a turn-off. Indeed, like Dave pointed out, how you got off in the very first place is a mystery.

Did you read the original description though?

"Here's an e-mail that I sent out a while back on what I mean by sapiosexual. The message was in response to "What gender do you prefer in sex and/or a relationship?"Me? I don't care too much about the plumbing. I want an incisive, inquisitive, insightful, irreverent mind. I want someone for whom philosophical discussion is foreplay. I want someone who sometimes makes me go ouch due to their wit and evil sense of humor.I decided all that means that I am sapiosexual. I want to fuck with peoples minds. :)I invented this term while on too little sleep driving up from SF in the summer of '98 and I'm trying to propagate it as much as possible. So please use it when appropriate...But where's the gender in all that? That people that I find like that also happen to have marvelous, wonderful bodies happens to be a perq. Flesh is fun...You can only fuck someone for so long (5-8 hours is finite) but you talk forever."~ Darren Stalder

BTW Lo Sapio means "the wise one" and was a designation for the wise man/woman of a tribe. . .

Hi there!

Something related to ts. I dated a guy who told me that he likes me and that he was attracted to me. However, it was a big turn off my critical mind. I have to be honest, I found himself not very informed in a lot of topics but I did not give it to much of attention as I really like more aspects of him. He seemed to enjoy our discussions. The reality is that he could be critical about some topics but in others he was very conservative. Like homophobia for example and he was not open to change his very conservative mind.

At the end he broke up with me because he couldnt stand to have a partner who thinks out of the box.

It has hit feelings and I am a bit heartbroken.

While intelligence may be the MOST attractive trait its not the ONLY thing. So yeah there was more to it...he was damn good looking. Also I may have been a wee bit desperate at the time. You live and learn :)

Rather silly of you to go out with him in the first place. In 5 minuets of conversation on any subject it is possible to know if a person is worth 5 more minuets. My guess is you were attracted to some other aspect...or his personality?

Linguistically speaking, the prefix "sapio" derives from "sapient", which means "wise".

A more accurate definition for "sapiosexual" is: One who finds WISDOM the most sexually attractive feature.

Sorry to be the language police.

Wouldn't it be sabiosexual as opposed to sapiosexual?

Ouch, I've burned myself and it's not fun. I would hate to do it every time I cook! :(

I am sure you will do well with your qualifier exam. Just study hard and do your best. Don't get yourself too stressed out about it because that's all you can do!

I hope you keep feeling better. It does seem like you have some sort of immunodeficiency disease because you have all of these other symptoms besides just the arthritis ones. I hope that you are able to sort out what is wrong and that it really isn't lupus or something.

I think it's good to say things that nobody would dare say. It means you don't care what anyone thinks and you're just speaking your mind. At least that's what I think. :P

I'm glad you're still able to play piano. :)

While I don't necessarily have to explain myself (since it is my blog ) I guess I should address how I feel about grammar. Some grammar rules I am willing to overlook. I do realize not everyone receives a decent education. I do have a problem, however, when one does not know the difference between risk and wrist. I thought it would be a little mean to say exactly what errors were made by this particular person, but I will say switching risk and wrist was one of many. If that makes me shallow, then so be it.
I still stand by what I say, some grammar errors really turn me off.

I'm going in for the lab test for GHD next Tuesday, I'm kind of happy and nervous. :p I just hope this is what I have so I can take care of it.

Being attracted to intelligence isn't an excuse for being shallow. Because of his grammar? Really? He is the better for it.
