I hear ya. Of course, it would be a little weird if men responded to "I love you" like cats and dogs do. They would lick your nose, or start purring and rubbing against your legs. I might be a little uncomfortable with that!Evo said:He's my best friend.When I tell him that I love him, he doesn't answer with "I don't know how to respond to that".
You reminded me of this cute little movie BobG posted on my birthday:

Now that's how to say I love you! :!)

You guys seem to have forgotten everything that TV has tried to teach you. The hero always feels discouraged and pushed to their limits right before they do their hero thing and save the world. It makes for better drama.

She probably does need new shoes. I don't know about any of the rest of you, but my Barbie dolls were always losing those tiny little plastic shoes.- #37

Hee!
You eat the same way I do! Hard boiled eggs and peaches for dinner. Yes!
Math is Hard, with absolutely no evidence whatsoever to back up my claim, I'm convinced you'll make it. Just keep blasting whenever the pressure builds up too much. It keeps your mind solid. Seriously.

blinguistics, eh?honestrosewater said:
I dunno, Rose. When I was a kid I took one of those tests on the back of a matchbook cover. Remember those? "If you can parse this sentence, you can make big money in the lucrative field of linguistics." I sent in my answer for my free evaluation, but they said as badly as they wanted to sell me their course, there was obviously no hope for me.
Yeah! I need to get back into Eye of the Tiger mode! RRAHHRRR!You guys seem to have forgotten everything that TV has tried to teach you. The hero always feels discouraged and pushed to their limits right before they do their hero thing and save the world. It makes for better drama.

Math is Hard, it appears as if you've lost the urge to throw random items at interlopers today. Plus, you appear to be growling less. Can we assume you feel better today? Or did you go shopping for new shoes? Or did you dig your shoes out of the kitty box and therefore your feet feel better?
