    Would you marry an ex-stripper, escort, prostitute, etc.?

    This is a question for the guys. I want to see your take on this. It was a convo I was having at work the other day. A few of us ladies were asking the men around the clinic if they would. Only one of them said yes. So say you met a woman who you find very attractive who has a good personality...

    Buying new, used, or leasing?

    When it comes to cars, which do you think is the best option overall? Cars drop in value right away soon as you drive them off the lot. I can't remember the average they drop but it almost seems criminal when you look the prices doing down. I used to think buying a new car was a good investment...

    Do you think your past experiences help you decide on what you want?

    In terms of finding the ideal partner, do you think your past experiences with previous relationships help to discover what you want in a partner or do you view it more as wasted time? I was talking to someone who recently got married and she said she regretted her past and not finding her man...

    Did you ever read the Bible cover to cover?

    Curious to see if anyone here has. I have not but I am working on it now. Got myself a new KJV bible and I am reading it almost daily. I want to actually read the entire thing instead to cherry-picking and reading the same few chapters and verses over and over again. I just have to stick with...

    What little things in life bring you joy?

    I am trying to be more positive this year as a whole not only in my life but within my worldview. So I am making an effort to be more thankful, grateful, and just focusing on the little things in life that bring me pleasure, joy, and peace. I think we can all use a few moments a day to reflect...

    Would you ever consider micro-farming?

    I am not sure if "micro-farming" is the proper term here but what I mean by this is having a smaller scaled farm. Like you have a garden for fruit and veg, some chickens for eggs, maybe a pig or two you raise up for meat, and a horse if that is your thing. The more prices seem to be getting out...

    Do you think white women are glamorizing black men?

    I was thinking about this. I see so much content online of white women with black men and it seems like they are glamourizing their relationships as it is some sort of status. Like they are almost showing them off like they are a trophy of some kind and it makes me hella uncomfortable. I am all...

    Do you have a budget and financial plan?

    A lot of people I talk to around my age don't. Like they have their wants and needs but no one is making moves to make it happen. Like if you want to buy a house, you have to manage your finances, budget accordingly, and save. You can't just coat by and spend your money carelessly. Curious to...

    What is the furthest you have driven?

    Random question, I know. I was thinking about it last night though and I have not driven for more than an hour straight without reaching my destination or at the very least, stopping for something. Some people out there are driving for 6 to 8 hours a day, if not more. Straight too! I think that...

    What if you don't get along with the family?

    Say you are dating someone and you are really thinking of your future together but you and his/her family do not get along. Maybe some of them downright hate you for whatever reason. How do you handle this? I am asking cause I am paranoid about this happening to me. I mentioned seeing someone...

    What is up with sports players all testing positive?

    I keep hearing about this. More so in the NFL and NBA than other sports but it keeps happening. They set up rules that you have to be vaccinated so all the sports teams are fully vaxxed yet they keep getting sick? And there is some weird ish happening with soccer players in other countries dying...

    Habits that would put you off from dating someone?

    I think we all have those turn-offs that signal something in our brains that makes us think "hell no" when someone we thought was attractive does something not up to our standards. In terms of bad habits or general habits you don't like, what are some that would put you off from dating someone...

    You ever known someone who played Strip Poker?

    Maybe I am wrong but is this like a made-up game or something? The only time I have ever seen it has been in TV shows and movies. I have never known anyone to have actually played it IRL and not it is bothering me. LOL Like does this game even exist in the real world? 90% of the time as well it...

    Online Business Ideas For 2022?

    I would love to one day have my own online business. I love helping people and my job but the last two years has really worn me down. I almost dread going to work on a daily basis now. With the overtime, the lack of sleep, I am just about at my limit. I am going to start looking into online...

    How would you handle your partner losing their job?

    Say you are in a relationship with someone who accounts for at least half the income and means of finances for you both and they lose their job. Maybe they were fired, maybe the company shut down, maybe there were budget cuts. Either way, they are no longer employed and their income was needed...

    Who here had covid and knows they did? What did it feel like? I was vaccinated a while back since I work in a clinic. I was around a few people in my family who had it during Christmas and didn't know. They both got pretty sick but nothing life-threatening. I was feeling unwell from Sunday till...

    In terms of getting married, what age do you think is best for a man, and what age do you think is best for a woman? In terms of having children, what age do you think is best for a man and what age do you think is best for a woman? I have always had views on both subjects that have changed...

    City Life/ Suburb Life/ Country Life?

    In terms of general lifestyles (excluding politics, religion, etc) what kind of area do you prefer when it comes to living - in the city, in the suburb, or in the country? I never cared for city life. I have lived in a city for half my life and moved away. I prefer it in the suburb. It is a mix...

    What do you spend on your SO for Christmas?

    I am only in the beginning stages of a relationship so I am not sure if I will get him something or not. I will say in past relationships that were fully established, I would spend $100. I think that is a nice number that can get a good gift or two. I don't like to go overboard. I feel like if...
