I withhold the answer to that question as it pertains only to my wife. But rest assured, if you allow me to speak for her for a sec in a non-Schryver way, she's quite happy with me.
That's not really what I meant. I kind of meant romance in your soul as expressed in empathetical terms.

Attempting to understand what you're saying is not 'twisting' your words.
I watch romantic comedies *for* the kissing scenes. So, yeah, I like it. I really don't think I am alone.

In Stem's defense I have found he is quite open, at least as far as LDS go, to the SSM issue.
"Any over-ritualized religion since the dawn of time can make its priests say yes, we know, it is rotten, and hard luck, but just do as we say, keep at the ritual, stick it out, give us your money and you'll end up with the angels in heaven for evermore."

You're a delight to discuss with, Jon. You have clearly missed what I called stupid. and asking Just me if it was a joke was in essence joking myself. I'm happy thinking others get all teary eyed when couples kiss. I simply don't. It doesn't really mean much to me to see others kiss. If its truly a joy for Just me to see pictures of couples kissing, then good for her. I won't hold it against her.
Sound fair, mister jump the gun?
Yes, that sounds a lot fairer than your original post on this thread. Now if we could just clear up what you were referring to as stupid...

That's a lie, Morley. Just kidding. but saying I said Just Me's position is joke and that I find it stupid is clearly twisting my words, so I said so. It appears Morley's going to disagree with me again. Oh well.
Love ya tons, Stem
I ain't nuttin'. don't get all worked up on account of me.
