My dad and I should be out there, weather permitting.....so is the otter going to be there??????

Personally, I think you've got it right! Those people that say that being single must make you lonely are wrong. They say it's wrong because they don't know any better and it scares them. I was with the same man for over ten years and hated going home so much that I became a workaholic and went back to school at night and on the weekends, just so I wouldn't have to be at home. I was miserable, but comfortable. I spent 10 years with someone I wasn't emotionally or physically close with. I never really realized how lonely I actually was until I left. My family can't comprehend why I'm less lonely being alone and single, but its because that's not the way they choose to live. I think that waiting until you find someone that you truly want to be with is the right idea, rather than settling and living lie (some cheat). I learned a little late, but life is too short to be so miserable. Just remember everyone has faults and every relationship has it's down moments. You have to compromise and no one is "perfect". Good luck!

Those that voted that the thrill is what makes you cheat, I can't help but wonder how long until that wears off? Is this something that men and women grow out of as they mature?

Hey...If you find one that tells you when to flare....PLEASE e-mail me...I would buy it in a second!!!!!!!

Hello..I'm the originator of Weight belt thread and wanted to ask what may be a stupid question. If the weights add to the dive and wing loading, then would I be safer jumping a larger sized canopy like a 190 and try weights? To answer that question I will give you a little more history. I have about 35 jumps + 105 minutes in the wind tunnel and have broken my ankle and leg twice so far. I started with a 230, then 210, then 190, now I'm jumping my dads 170 Triatholon. My dad is a coach in Davis and feels I need weights to increase my fall rate. I trust him, however I'm always looking for other opinions. Any help is appreciated :) Thank you for yout time, Kristin

I just got my A lic. and need some advice on wearing weights. Are some brands better than others? How much weight should I start with? I'm currently about 130lbs and can't fall as fast as everyone else. Thanks to all who reply!
