You say that it takes time to know if you love someone. Both sets of grandparents say it was love at first sight for them, I have held on to that notion since I was old enough to hear the stories. Do you say not possible because of modern times or do you completely not believe in love @ first sight

In general, I don't believe in love at first sight. You don't meet someone and suddenly know them well enough to build a life with them. That takes time.
Your grands were lucky, or rate, or given their history, have brushed over some details. I know several married couples that tell great "how we met" and "we always knew stories."
Um, I was there for some of those early stages. The story they tell leaves out a lot of messy details. But "I met him, he was dating other women, and I used to drive by his apartment to see if he was home ", doesn't have the same ring as "it was love at first sight."
Does it happen for some folks like your grands? Sure. I'll take your word for it. But looking for "love at first sight" is not a dating strategy that is applicable to the masses. Your grands were the exception to the rule. Everybody wants to be the exception to all the hard rules, but they are not.

Will you completely shut down this site.? Still playing catchup reading prior questions. Don't delete.! I need my fix Bel. :)

yup. Read "Don't Waste Your Pretty". The highlights are there. :-)

A group of couples all friends one of the couples is getting divorced. The wife sends photos of recent vacation to all of us via email including our spouses emails they are nothing but skimpy bikini pics. I think it's inappropriae and should've sent to only the ladies thoughts?

yeah. inappropriate. i get if it's mostly scenery/food/drinks/events and such and there's a couple bikini pics thrown in, but it's all or mostly bikini pics, then yeah, #teamtoomuch
I've had a few friends get divorced. in all fairness to the wife, she's in a bad place and not always thinking clearly.

Bride'smaids daughter was single when she RSVP. 2 wks b4 wedding she asks to bring new dude(destinationwedd).We had paid catering/open bar bill. I told her no extra room. She was no show. Her mom told other Bridesmaids thats why & she was in support. I am pissed my friend condoned this. Am I wrong?

Nope.
But what can be done about it? The wedding is over. You're mad about something that can't be fixed.
Your friend can't be held responsible for how her grown daughter moves. Whether she agrees or not is irrelevant.

Why are u switxhing platforms??

Because getting hits/$$ for someone else doesn't make sense.
Black people should own more, consume less. :-/

B no it's HER neighbor not my neighbor I don't know dude other than seeing him in the bundling when I go visit her. But now I'm wondering of they had eyes for each other this whole time. She mad foul for this. Broke up with me but we kept Having sex and she was seeing him too

You weren't in a relationship with her. She was single. You have no claims on who she dates when you're not with her.
Sir. Please leave this woman alone. You don't want her. You don't think highly of her. Your ego is just bruised now.

Asked a question on the new site almost 10 hours ago. Realized that the activity is on this site still. Kinda confused but still a fan :-)

This site shuts down when I hit 12k. Im transitioning. Thank you for your patience during this time.
I am currently answering questions on both sites. Even on the new site, I still won't be able to answer every question.
