    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

A connection i cannot explain

When i first came here to Fauna, my only interests were to learn more about the hobby i love, and hopefully make some great new friends in the process. Never once in my mind did it occur that i would find my perfect match for me.
I wasn't looking for either dating or love, since i had been with someone when i first joined here, but unforeseen circumstances ended that relationship, and i am now so glad that it did.

A week or so ago, i started talking with this great guy here on Fauna, i responded to one of the threads he had started , and it just took off from there. I had said that i would be willing to try a long distance relationship with a guy, as long as we had plenty in common, and that when i was ready to start dating again. What i didn't know was that we have an incredible amount of stuff in common, besides our passion for reptiles, and the only thing we don't have in common is that i like sports, and he doesn't.

As we started to talk more and more, he would ask me questions that involved detailed answers, basically open ended ones and the eerie thing is our answers were exactly the same, and i mean exactly! We even like the same type of furniture, which is just plain scary.

We ended up talking on the phone last week for 8 straight hours, i mean for me, that was a marathon session, especially since i'm phone shy:eek::eek:

And the thing that really got to me, was that he is willing to not only endure a long distance relationship, but he is willing to be in a relationship with a woman who is carrying someone's children. That just truly shows what a special guy he is, and for us to have found each other, when we weren't even really looking, is incredible.

We actually plan on meeting fairly soon, and i cannot wait for the day that happens.

Will this work out for the both of us? We don't know, but we are gonna give it our all to make it work, it just seems that fate has intervened and we both are answering it's call.

Babe, all i can say is that i am truly blessed to have found you, and i am trusting my heart with you, and i have no regrets about taking this chance:):):):)
 
I will try my best to not disappoint you

for those of ya'll that believe in fate, or destiny, or whatever you want to call it. Then this will probably give you even more to believe in.

She made the post about these unforeseen circumstances and the termination of her relationship to her ex on the exact Month and Day of my birthday.

Now ya'll can add that to your collection of "whatever you want to call it"
