Cathylynn, I'm glad the treatment helped your husband some, and also that the two of you have a bit of time out of the hospital as well.
Booyakasha, sorry about your dad. I can't even imagine that long ordeal. 
As long as we're on the subject of no one noticing, the remainder of us build everyone new things & new ideas, all the time, usually for free. That's where all my money goes for example; the future. As such, people into technology for the money mostly refuse to get along with me. Why do we give million dollar ideas away? Because we're not the first ones starving.
I hope this gets pasted around.
Great post. My opinion, for whatever it's worth: I have no problem with either group until they start taking advantage of each other, when one group profits off of the other's generosity.
The other concern, which I deal with in my own career, is when people offer their services at substantially less than what they would need to have a thriving business. These folks lessen the perceived value of creative or other services. I don't blame individuals for this problem, but I do believe it's a problem.

I think I'm pretty much at the same level of 'purity' as Kura.
See, it doesn't mean a thing.

Did someone say something?

... Sex/relationship...When one is subjected to smiles and niceties to then find out it was all fake for their own gain and intent causing a biological/ chemical reaction within resulting in Severe anxiousness, confusion, sadness, shaking etc ... That's why it's a good thing when people are open about there intentions. Smiles and niceties doesn't always mean someone has sex/relationship on their mind. It can just be signs of friendliness/friendship

Ohh.. I didn't mean it in that way haha I dont have one night stands, so sex/relationship are rather synonymous for me. Despite me explaining quit clearly my intentions being i am looking for something serious and not a one night stand.. Thats what i was meaning
... I have mainly female acquaintances and assure you i dont wish to sleep with any of them ... However i have slept in the same bed a number of times but literally just that, slept... No hanky panky

^I didn't mean a one night stand at all. What I meant was that it is a good thing to tell someone that you are only looking for friendship, in case the other person was hoping for a relationship. That way you might avoid people experience the pains you where describing. Do you understand what I mean now?

i know what you mean.
although i can't say i have followed that.
some people are very manipulative and it doesn't matter what is said unfortunately. 
although sometimes you get cheered up by having silly stupid dreams about forgetting you graduated high school two years ago, and going to the derby and attending the first day, only to remember....

Hi Froya, glad you're back. I suck at reading hidden intentions, so I tell people that I'm not good with subtlety and hope for the best. If they get to know me, they find out, at the very least, that I'm definitely not subtle by nature. Understatement of the year.
Kip, I still have the high school dreams sometimes, and the college ones, and others from different points in my life. I've even had Billy Madison-like dreams. For some reason, I was going back to school as an adult.

^^Yes, it's not easy at all. I certainly don't have a perfect record when it comes to this. I have felt sometimes that I need to say that I'm not looking for a romantic relationship, because I feel I don't want to hurt the other person. The other person might not have had that in mind at all, but it's better to be safe then sorry. I can be quite flirtatious in my way of being I have come to understand.
Sometimes it's really tempting to flirt, because it's fun and exiting

Hey
I tend to read a LOT of things (hidden intentions) into communication with others. I am super aware of subtle changes in tones of voice, facial exprecions and so on. Most of it is probably wrong, but I cant help it. Of course this leads to misunderstandings and a lot of suspicion on my part.
