Deanna would be my pick if I could have a relationship with any Star Trek character. Kes would be my 2nd. My girlfriend is very empathetic bu... |

| ok, is SSD better than SSI? which one is better to have? Disability is definitely better for me & probably most others. SSI gets reduced by one dollar for every two you earn before taxes. It also gets reduced by how much unearned income you have & there's restrictions on resources. SSI is a... |

| That's my favorite part too when you allow an extrovert to carry the social interaction and they love you for it. I'm surprised you'd be introverted in your own home though, I have not heard that one before. I thought even introverts would be comfortable in their own home to be a little more social... |

| My grandparents were married almost 60 years and they never shared a bedroom. Apparently, he never saw her without makeup or with wet hair, either. That part's weird to me ^, but I can relate to the bedroom idea. It makes me think of those old black & white shows. They wanted to pretend like hu... |
