I never said that they should I was just pointing out that it is hard to find a guy who wants to even start a relationship with is all. I understand why. I def. don't start a relationship with anyone without telling them about my kids first. It is in no way for to them or myself or him for that matter. I do feel that if after they know about them and still want to date me then they have to take that resposibility. However, I do tell them about the kids right when I meet someone, I never introduce my kids to him until I feel that our relationship will actually go somewhere. To be fair to everyone. As far as inentive goes, well all you have to do is just look at me, and then if you are lucky enough to get under my skirt then you will have no worries there....lol....sorry too much bitterness had to lighten it up a bit, but I do have to say that I am good and being the goddess that I am I have no complaints there either.

It is funny, would be funnier if he was to instead drop his pants and say, "I don't know you tell me, my wife thinks I am." Or something like that.

So what you are saying is that I have to live my life all alone because I was wrong into thinking that having kids with the man I had loved and was married too was wrong because I should have seen it coming that as soon as the army sent him to Germany he was going to party and cheat on me and blah blah blah. That is all my fault yep so I and my kids should suffer now because of it and be alone without any hopes of someone loving us. My ex has nothing to do with our kids and that seems to be all my fault too somehow, no matter how much I pled with him and to his parents that he should spend time with them. You make my faith in men so much better and stronger now...

I just hope that this means that there will be 90% less gas in our otters as well....Last weekend I didn't get on a single load without atleast two people gassing up the plane. Why do people eat such nasty smelly foods before they jump is beyond me...lol...sorry had to change this up a little Kathryn

thinks to herself, sure but good dinner in Eloy...might have to drive a bit for a good dinner...but at least I will be living in Eloy by then...then she stands up goes to the edge again and looks over and thinks, should I???

Same here, I was going to go with my ex, and unless we get back together I wont be able to go. I tend to get depressed enough when I see him at the DZ not sure how I could handle doing what would be my first BASE, let alone all the BS I would hear from him would just make things worse I think. But to all that are going have a blast and perhaps I will see you there next year!

LMFAO... No $h*t! fighting both would not be any fun. I have not cheated on my main yet, but then again I have been paying packers and jumping demo gear, I wont be able to jump my own gear until the first, because I have had to downsize to it and because I can't finishing paying my rigger until then, and hopefully I wont need to cheat on that main for a while because my reserve is a bit smaller than my main...126 vs 135... not a big difference but I am still on a 150 right now and I want at least 20 jumps on my 135 before I chop...I hope... Kathryn

needs escape from all the bitterness in the Dating in the US thread....wonders if there might be an eternal freefall in this thread....

Maybe making the guy work so hard to get close to you is what turned him off? He spent all his energy trying to get close and you wouldn't let him so he gave up, right when you finally opened up. I've been there Well now maybe true, but maybe not. You never know what is going to happen, no matter how much you want to. I hate being hurt and I know I do it to myself by trusting someone with my heart, but then I have to think what if I hadn't and he was the one, and I pushed him away by not letting him in. I am so confused and it sucks. If only the movies were truthful in "I knew it when I first looked into your eyes that you were the one" Life would be so much easier....But what would be the fun in that? I think the best way for everyone to get over all this bitterness is think about what is really important...PULLING!!! AND IF SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT WITH MY MAIN CHOP IT AND PULL MY RESERVE...then life is much easier...if only I could spend all of my tie in the air I would have no stress in my life... Kathryn...

They said 7 to 14 days to get it fixed last night on the news. I can't go that long without jumping it will kill me.....

I agree a relationship built on trust does last longer, but only if both people are not in this "protect my self" plan. I do have to say that in my last relationship I was super happy and in love, but he left me for no reason at all. He told me that didn't want a skydiver girlfriend, even thought he is the one who took me for my first tadems, and he BASE jumps and we were together for seven months of me learning to jump and jumping. His whole excuse did not make since at all, which leaves for no closesur wich leads to not wanting to deal with another broken heart. Maybe I am just stupid in thinking that guys want a realationship as much as I do and that they are happy with being with one girl for the rest of their lives. I think that communication with each other is very important, if you can express how you are feeling and why to someone who will listen to it and then fix what your concern is without getting all pissy that you don't trust them or you are doing something wrong, will make for a longer lasting relationship. However guys are never like that, well at least the ones I have meet. Now as far as the guy girl ratio in this sport, I sure haven't found a single guy that wants a girlfriend, but found lots who just want to well you know. But then again my dateing is even more complicated because I am a single mom and I know that most guys my age are not wanting any responsiblity. Kathryn

Well I guess I must be crazy then because I dated a BASE jumper when I was still a wuffo. We dated a long time, but broke up after 7 months of me jumping. He didn't like the fact that I jumped, which is really weird because he had taken me for my tadems and paid for them. I guess he thought I would quit after an injury I had and I didn't. Plus I am thinking a lot about BASE jumpng now and that pisses him off even more. Not sure if he is worried about me or more worried about the "deviants" I will be hanging out with.

I know I am the goddess of freeflying...lol...any ways, next weekend we should do a caterpiller exit. I haven't tried one yet and they sound like a blast. Kathryn

I need someone to refresh my memory...

Hey if she does, I want a ride too... Kathryn

Really!?! What is the landing area like...Have to have video for my first as well.

No I am not related to Felix, and I do like cats, but I like my purple pants.

I ran out of gas on my way home from Eloy last night too, but got some from a gas station in Casa Grande with a ride from someone who was nice enough to stop and help me out. I hope it doesn't last too long, I go crazy if I don't jump every weekend...

Sorry....Better now???

This is the song that never ends, yes it goes on and on my friends. Some people started singing it not knowing what it was and they'll continue singing it forever just because.... I once had that song stuck in my head the whole climb up and the whole way down, made me pull at 1800ft...well no it didn't really that was my own fault for not readjusting my altimeter to the different DZ and for doing ground crew the night before at a 450ft tower jump, but it sounds like a good excuse none the less...

CONGRATS!!! Much love to ya... Our DZ wont have night jumps till Sept 6th, but can not wait....

Yes I did and many others like it. I wasn't wanting opinions on when someone should start, just when they did...I think it is def. a personal choice on when one is ready to start. I have done lots of ground crew for my ex-boyfriend and his friends and I have seen someone go in and someone with a 180 into a cliff and the wait for the rescue team to get him off was so long, made me really think twice about starting, but after a few really f-uped skydives and the way I handled what could have been very deadly situation without thinking or hesitation, I feel confident in possiably starting, but yet I think I want to do a couple of balloon jumps first to see what it feels like to actually catch up speed...So inother words still thinking about it, but was wondering what everyone started at and why...Just cause I am BORED...no money left after a weekend of jumping...lol...

I hear ya, nothing worse than someone reading over your shoulder...oh but wait there are those who scarff down sausage and egg biscits before jumping and then when climbing up to alt. they let it lose....ugh

I was just wondering when everyone got started and why? I had gone with a friend of mine and her husband on New Years eve to watch him BASE off a cliff all weekend. I was hooked but the guy I meet there said you have to have 200 skydives before BASE jumping. So I went the next wekend for a tandem and was hooked. Now that I have been around a ton of BASE jumpers and skydivers I have noticed so many diffrent opinions on when and if to start...

Hey I wear purple pants, but I am a girl so that doesn't count, and I do get laid... As far as a new object or not, I would agree with the address being the same, same object different exit points. Kathryn
