Take them with you to the gatherings! I googled the place where the Wishlist people are having their ore party, and the place that Mamasan23 is throwing their get together. Both look pretty cool. But that Sluggers place looks hella fun! SKEE BALL!! Anyhow, hope to get to run into ya out there!
And some good advice for. ANYONE trying to find love, start out as friends first.. Get to know someone.. I guess that's why I'm still single.. No one wants to get to know who I am or what I'm about..
And I will never be a slut.. So I guess I'm just SOL. Anyhow see ya in Chicago maybe!
i haven't been paying attention...didn't realize that there was more than one pre-party...i was thinking it was gonna be like the one at PJ20... :fp:
this is all anecdotal, but i have to disagree with you about the being friends first part though. i have always had a lot of friends. lots of female friends, that neither of us are sexually attracted to each other, and they have all been my friends for years and years. i have never ever once had a friendship relationship blossom into anything more. if i were looking for that to happen, i would have gone into it with the intent of being more than just friends. there was always this mutual fear that introducing romance into those relationships would possibly ruin the friendships. and nobody wants that to happen. ya know? then again, that is possibly why i am still single

I find that more often than not, if you start as friends, you stay friends (or attempt to be more than just friends, and then fuck the whole thing up royally and get neither) ... But there are exceptions to every rule!
yeah i agree. this has been my experience as well, no exceptions though

If there are any cute Chicago girls looking for a ticket to the show in July, girlfriend and I recently hit the fritz and her ticket just became available. Ticket is GA on the field. I'd rather take someone in to Pearl Jam than a date that only knows two songs.

I agree with you. I have and have had lots of male friends, and in a few cases they have tried to take it to another level (or even been in love with me) and it just inevitably fucked everything up (and really, they weren't just friends with me first - they were attracted to me the whole time and kept it to themselves so I just thought it was completely platonic). So yeah, I have NEVER had a real friendship blossom into a relationship - at least not without disastrous results. And you're right... I figure that, especially for a man, if he's going to be sexually interested in a woman, he's going to feel that way from the start, or will never feel that way. And as a woman I'm the same. Either I'm interested in him romantically from the start, or I never am. I've tried to force my feelings to go that way once or twice, and it didn't work at all.

oh yeah, unrequited love does fuck everything up between 2 people. it happens all the time, and that has inspired some of the great art. as a guy i can freely admit to at one time being sexually attracted to a couple of my girl friends, but i knew that it wasn't mutual, and i was perfectly fine with that. i am still a very good friend to them, mostly, all attraction aside, because i really do care about them. as a guy i can speak with a certain level of authority that most likely, any time you meet a new guy, there is probably some sort of attraction that inspired them to approach you. and yeah, you can't force those feelings. that ends up in disaster 100% of the time.

I have fucking hate unrequited love thing which has often been the story of my life. I think sometimes people are just attracted to things they know were not meant to be :(

Wait, all guys are attracted to all women they meet and get along with?? What about the ones they personally find unattractive but fun and interesting?? Or guys with spouses?

thanks! he was. i think that is what is keeping me from having gotten another one up to this point. it is like no other dog is gonna be able to match up. i have some traveling and wrigley coming up, so maybe once i am settled from all of that i might rescue another one. i think he would want me to do that.

I know what you mean.. The dog in my signature pic was one of my two wolf-dogs, and he was just so amazing, and we'd gone through so much together in life, that it's hard to think of any other dog being that awesome! Eventually, I will get another dog... But for now, after Wrigley, I'm going to rescue another kitty. It's really weird not having my own pet!! As it is now, I have to borrow my sister's dogs!! Lol
I didn't go through the whole thread but think its a really cool idea. Ive always been a PJ fan ( my first purchased cd in 6th grade was ten) but just recently learned how really amazing they are. They songs just starting moving me etc. Anyway my wife doesn't get them at all. She doesn't get how i could watch you tube concerts every night or rock out to their albums all day etc. She likes country music :fp: so I could see how cool it would be to get with another PJ fan. Good luck to you guys.

Lol! My sister's male dog is an American Bull dog ( in the Pitt Bull family), he is full of insane amounts of energy!! And thanks, yes Momo was a really cool dog. I miss him terribly! It's amazing how attached you become to them.. Isn't?

yes it is amazing how attached we get.
the worst part about losing Nash is adapting to the unbelievable quiet. the silence in the house now is deafening. he was always up to something making some kind of noise, chewing on a bone, licking a paw, panting, farting, snoring, LOL... nobody prepared me for how still the house was going to be. i've gotten used to it now that it has been 8 weeks, but it is never going to be the same as it was.

I just laughed so hard I cried !!! That was the best episode of Seinfeld EVER! But god there's do many if them that are great!!
GST: I totally understand. It was so weird when my dog passed. His brother outlived him by one year, so that helped. But all the little things he did were missing. Like loved the cats.. And to not see him running around with a cat hanging from his jowls was weird. Incidentally the cats were cool with him carrying them around!! And at eight sharp every night and morning, to not be bombarded by having a food dish dropped in my lap or on my head.. Just everything was out of place.. It really is a unique experience to share your world with a dog.

Nash looks like he was a really cool dog.
I'll wear my signature Red Sox cap

And yup, I would also easily lose that wager as well.
