hi folks. i currently belong to a "once a week" writing group, and i belong to a desi "once a month" book club, and am now wondering if any minnesota folks out there would be interested in joining a book club that would meet once every 3 weeks or so.

why put forth a subject and not answer it? stupid! it is as if they wanted you to open the page, but when you did, there was just an advertisement.
how very annoying. i opened the page to read the opinions on the subject, as well as to see some questions answered. no questions answered, and no real opinions were given. that is what i get for thinking that an MSN article would acually be worthy of my time. (as this post is worthy of your time! :))
by the way, i will pose the same (as MSN's article) question to you, is monogamy a myth? until i was 27 or so, i thought that the idea of monogamy was the most ridiculous thing, and quite frankly it was very scary. to commit to only one person, and to give your heart and soul to them, in hopes that they commit to you and stay with you for as long as you live...i truly had believed that this was an impossibility. it seemed a big risk. the other point was that i would be forced to become that person, or we would become a single person...our individuality would be lost and we would instead become uninterested in anything in fear that we would lose the other in the process of pursuing the interests.
today? i still hold that those things above are vital in having a monogamous relationship, to commit to that one person, and to lose your interests for if you keep them, you will lose the person...but i want to commit to that person (course i am just a little over a year of my marriage) and i am keeping some of my interests (see the first part of the post, writing group,etc.,), if not all (to travel as much as possible, to move to another city, to party like a rock star...okay that last one is not true...)...
is monogamy a myth, actually the question should have been 'is the possibility of obtaining monogamy in a relationsip, a myth'...but anyway, i think that it is a concept forced upon by society, and throughout time, we, humans, have been able to respect it, so it is not a myth...but i do think that it is the hardest thing is making it happen, allow, believe in and respect.
