Awwww.... look how cute, he/she thinks they know me. Oh, please do pray for me, because then maybe I'll be saved. As for being lonely, you can chill on praying on that, because I'm already quite happy in the non-lonely department. Of course, if you've been "reading my posts for months" like you say, you'd know that. So I think you're really just a liar who wants to "put me in my place." Hah.

As for this, I talk to Allie every day and she's one of those rare people that actually likes to talk about her dead husband. Not because he's dead, but because he's her husband, and she's not one of you lame people that's all creeped out by death. Ask her yourself, she doesn't care when I talk about Ry.

As to the "liking to talk about my dead husband', it's not that rare. I'm going to assume you've never lost anyone particularly close to you. Most of the problem you run into is people not letting you talk about it, not the other way around. Believe me, no one ever pressures em into talking about Ry. He was a huge part of my life, and I love him, and I love to tell stories about him because he was great. People who let me talk about him are fine and dandy in my book. Last night I talked to a girl who lost her boyfriend to CF. I couldn't even tell you her name, and I doubt she could tell you mine. From the time we started talking to the two hours later, all we talked about was our loved ones. You don't often have to press us. Somedays we say their name because we're the only ones who will.

Edited to add: One thing. Leave names. I look at words for a living, and I have some of the anonymous posts figured to a decent degree of certainty. Don't be a coward. If you think something, stand behind it. If you call someone to the carpet, have the courage to really do it.If I think something about someone, I'll go "My name is Allie, and this is what I think". Courage holds more weight of opinion than cowardice.

Oh and for meaningful responsibilities... just because I'm not married (I do have a long term boyfriend and he counts for something, thank you) and don't have kids yet, or live on my own, doesn't mean I'm a moron. Just because you don't like my opinions doesn't make me stupid. It simply makes you judgmental and intolerant for assuming that because my opinions are different than yours, that makes me an idiot.

Oh wow, 3 posts back to back with similar bad grammar and lack of capitalization! They can't possibly be from the same person! Oh noes, beware the wrath of the anonymous uneducated idiot!

Ok - I live on my own with my common law husband, I have responsibilities in life, I'm 24 years old, and I tend to agree with Emily on a lot of things. I actually like her posts. She doesn't sugar coat things, and she is realistic. Because I agree with her, does that make me immature as well? You say that because she's only 22 and has no husband and kids, and doesn't own a home of her own, that she's not mature? Do you really need all those things to be mature? I don't think so. I hate peolpe who come on here, and say because you don't have a husband and kids, and that you don't own a home, and because you're in a younger age bracket, that makes you immature. I think that its immature, for annonymous people to come on here and say negative things about someone without having the courage to put a name to their comments. You don't know Emily - what makes you think that you know she's immature by a few comments that she's made?

Also, I have a 'mature' life. Five year old daughter, home of my own, job, was married, car payment, and various other fun responsibilities. I pay my own bills, in full. I agree with Emily most to all of the time. So life experience nonwithstanding, Emily is still very realistic and straightforward, and all the Care Bear stares in the world will not negate that.
