See... you just thought you got away with it...
Can't you two behave?
And no C0ldf1re... No that does not count.

Could I count the ways I love you?
I cannot even try.
Not even with exponentials
For they always multiple.

Ok, I put some thought to this question. I'm not sure if it's still viable but I will answer. If a potential partner did not read, I would not turn them away, there could be a whole host of reasons behind this. Ranging from poor literacy skills, dyslexia (me) Disengagement of old creative narrative forms etc.

I guess the point I'm making is that surely it would be more wonderful to share knowledge and passions of reading to another. Whether it be taught or used as bonding between a couple. The question posed should be would you be prepared to share your love of books to your SO without any expectations.

Or....plain old dislike! Yes, your reasons could be included but in the majority of cases if a person does not read, even if their other half has tried and failed to spark an interest in reading then they are simply not interested in reading, and from that point onwards, its up to the other person if they want to read or not.

Hey if you dont believe me i can forward on all the lovey-dovey PMs, but your hard drive can only take so many heart emoticons.....plus he swore me to secrecy but he was the one who hugged you yesterday- he tracked your down, dressed up and hung out at the spots you frequent and without you even knowing it, he got his wish- to have physical contact with the most beautiful woman in the world.

Im sorry but i feel you have a right to know, for both his sake and that of his wife.

My honesty is my utter downfall

The world is a more interesting place with us in it Laci and you know it! Hey you could just tell Coldfire that you have lost interest in reading, he may move on but then again he may not....

Yeah, you and Fascist would definitely make any meet up very lively, i think between the two of you, ye have invented a new language. Its safely confined to the tweedle dum etc threads for NOW, but if it spreads then God help us all....

If it spreads i feel for you Mike... i truely do.

The only word for such a language would be a hybrid of you two- the language of Staby or maybe Lacist, oh sweet Jesus you are infecting me.....<bangs head with dictionary>

Much better.

hmmm... not intirely... we call it the Doctionairy. Once we get it published i'll send you one. Then not only will you know what we're talking about but you can actually join in! Arent you excited!

Yays!

If you think it's bad here you should see my facebook page and my phone. We have like 12 conversations going on facebook and several more during the day with texts. Also we just had our first voice on voice conversation last night. Very odd to hear voices after so long of just typing. You need a facebook so we can attack your page with our awesomeness!

Cool so what did it feel like to speak with real voices after nearly a year of forums?? I bet it was weird. I may set up a Facebook some time i usually just g-mail my mates.
