Gloria25 Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 How in the world do you ever trust yourself, your judgement - when you made stupid choices in picking men/women? Do I just need to take a breather here or what? I mean, I misread so much and was literally delusional for one freakin' year. How can I trust myself not to do allow myself to be fooled like that again?
TaraMaiden2 Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 By re-evaluating your own Principles. You question your own integrity, what you stand for, and what you won't stand for. And the moment you perceive negative traits which run against your principles - hold them up to scrutiny, there and then. Don't brush them aside as possibly irrelevant, or that you might be blowing them out of all proportion. Listen more to what your instincts tell you, rather than your heart's desires. 2

My instincts told me from day one to stay away. Next time I will follow my instincts and not doubt them.
TaraMaiden2 Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Don't confuse 'instincts' with 'fear'. Be confident in your own ability to see things as they really are. But don't go looking for them. 1
lgspot Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Thank you... My instincts told me from day one to stay away. Next time I will follow my instincts and not doubt them. You'll be fine Gloria. Anyone that has been in the hunt has missed a time or two. We need learn to listen to our instincts and gut. Gut is seldom wrong. Right up there with female instinct..... Your "picker" is just a bit rusty. You'll be back on your game before you know it...... Ask yourself, "What would Madonna do?" Speaking of Madonna, this Rolling Stone Mag out now is a Madonna Dedication issue. Couldn't pm so included that info here.....
Author Gloria25 Posted October 3, 2015 Author Posted October 3, 2015 (edited) Ask yourself, "What would Madonna do?" Madonna would tell such a loser that if he wanted to see a puzzzy, just take a look in the mirror... Yes, lesson learned...if something smells funny - it probably "is".

TaraMaiden2 Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Great quotation recently from Helen Mirren (a superb actress. First class dame, too!)
TaraMaiden2 Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 A woman who thinks a man putting his arm around his girl is "like ownership" is a first class dame to you? Wow. I'd say that she is a nut job. What I wouldn't give to be in the same room while you said that to her face....! I bet I know who'd come off worse!! I was more referring to her comment regarding the more frequent use of the 'expletive/deleted'. But yes, she's a first-class Dame. By order of Her Majesty the Queen. Another pretty cool character. You seem to have a problem with strong-willed women, enigma....
TaraMaiden2 Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Exactly what this planet needs. More madwomen. If we'd had more 'madwomen' in History, women wouldn't find themselves chin-deep in crap right now.... But again, we digress. Probably just more of your 'feminist propaganda'... 1
TaraMaiden2 Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 What Helen Mirren said? Absolutely. Do you honestly believe that a man putting his arm around his girl is "like ownership" and that she should tell him to get off of her? Honestly, when I read that she had said that a while back, I was taken aback with just how moronic she must be to come up with some nonsense like that. I can only imagine the level of hatred she must feel for men. I don't think any women should take her advice on much of anything outside perhaps how to get roles in movies. Personally, no, I don't. I think the same could be said of a girl putting her arm around her BF, come to that. What you may not know about Dame HM, is that she began her career at a time when the Casting couch was still very much the norm. You wanted the part? The director's bed is this way, please.... enigma, on a serious note, truly, the condescending treatment of women has been going on for millennia, and really, today's standards are nothing to judge the past by. Women are finally making enormous strides in the world of commerce, and other realms previously organised, engineered and run by men. HOWEVER: Look at the world of Law. How many successful Judges or lawyers do you know, who are women? Most writers of legal books, are men. Look at the world of medicine. How many top-drawer female consultants are there? How about the world or religion? The Church of England has only recently approved the appointment of Women Bishops and that caused much furore, even among Protestants. The Catholic church...? Forget it. And Islam? Let's not even go there... And before anyone can point it out, yes, sexism is also present in Buddhism. But by "yesterday" standards, women are indubitably doing better than ever before. It's no wonder though, that some women are labelled hardened, insistent strident feminists for their views. or 'madwomen'. Given previous records, and the history of emancipation, it's astonishing there aren't more like her. Let's be honest. You may vote for one particular candidate or political party, but may not agree or see eye to eye with all their views. Simply because I believe Dame HM is a great dame, doesn't mean I believe every word she says is one I agree with, necessarily. 1
