I think so too. I don’t know how he was able to cover it up tho. Both of them. Definitely fake, without a doubt.

Not really sure. I actually stumbled upon that info while doing some programming & analyzing logs looking into the cause of the site slowdown a few days ago.

My guess is that Googlebot is on GC often, but not sure if it always crawls so many pages in a single day.

I've been doing a lot of work on GC & think some of the changes were detected by Google, resulting in more Googlebots here to crawl GC pages.

Lol, I wasn't describing regular computer use stuff. You're doing just fine even trying to understand most of what I posted about that.

He’s a former president. He can cover up anything.

Today, I made him a card and wrote in it- a kind of throw back to our early days when we were long distance and had to write letters as our main communication. I'm going to mail it tomorrow.
So romantic! Walking and talking, and just spending quality time together, it just doesn’t get any better than that.

Well, I’m glad you think I’m doing better with it than I think I am.

It’s probably easier than I think. I think it’s the terminology that makes it complicated. Kinda like a foreign language? I’ll bet if I understood the language and how everything relates to the other, then I’d probably be like… “Ohhhhh, I get it now!” lol.

Dee, that sounds like SO much fun! You two are making up for so much lost time. But now, I think the timing is right.

Nope. We won yesterday.

And I should be in bed right now. I mean, I am in bed right now, but I should be sleeping because my eyes are heavy and I have to get up for work in the morning. But this game has gotten close, lol.

He said the three words tonight and said he has often regretted breaking up with me 40 years ago.

Just how much homework do a first grader, a third grader, and a fifth grader have? Each day when they and their parents walk to school, each child AND a total of three parents ALL carry big backpacks to school. Are parents attending the school as well, or is there simply too much homework

Wait… what??? He did? Whoa! Dee, he’s held these feelings for a very long time then. I’m assuming. But then, you’d been in contact with him for quite some time now, right? Like, before you started going out with him again.

What did you say to him when he said that to you? Did you say it back to him? And then what’d you say when he told you he made a mistake? Based on what you’ve posted, I just couldn’t understand his reason. I know you said you had some insecurities back then, I mean, but we all have some. So I just didn’t think that should have been the reason. Did he say why he did that?

I told him what I said here- that I loved him then and it didn't go away, I just locked it away in the part of my heart I had given to him and moved on. But that being with him again has unlocked it. That's when he said he always thought of me with fondness and some regret for breaking things off. He said he was valuing the wrong things then. I told him I thought we both needed to grow and it wouldn't have worked then anyway. At that age, I really couldn't see my value. I only saw what men thought of me. I was very codependent and thought I had no value without having a man. It was through my first (very abusive) marriage that I learned to value myself and have standards for how I expected to be treated and to believe that I was fine on my own, without a man. Until that happened, I couldn't have had a healthy relationship.

We are having some very deep and serious discussions about expectations and what we want from our relationship and our goals, etc. Very good open and honest communication.
