Sure Dpn Quixote meets Clark Kent.

Why? I If you hang out here long enough you'll get to know people at a natural pace. Understanding is a few steps beyond getting to know.

ShellDeFelice says,

I totally forgot how "literal" these sixes can be interpreted without a backstory.

This was completely 100% a reminder to myself of six words I am currently choking on. I'm having a hard time understanding someone in my personal life and I would rather "boot kick them to the curb" than take the time to better understand.

I do not want to be "that girl", instead I want to push out of my uncaring cave and connect.

Most of the time my sixes are not autobiographical...at least not in the current moment. Happy to get to know all of you exactly where you are and however you show up!

Got food?

jl333 says,

Sorry, I should probably explain since your somewhat new...I'm always, seemingly hungry. Got food?

ShellDeFelice says,

jl333 you are so funny! Always baked goods around here.

jl333 says,

I'm on my way...

Love a girl who can be bribed by cookies. True story: I was a science retard and I passed my physics lab in college only by bribing a quiet, brilliant but painfully shy girl ,in the back of the class with home baked choc. chip cookies. If she hadn't agreed to be my partner I'd still be there. I can't even get the alligator clean in Where's my Water!

TheUnknownComic says,

That's an old joke on understanding men - Men are either horny or hungry; so if you see one without an erection,make him a sandwich.

ShellDeFelice says,

Boys always want to make like they are that simple but I see it now as a ruse. The guys in my life have been well fed and ....uh well let's just say full all the way around. And, yet somehow they also rquired a full time cheerleader and glass half empty refilling girl. And all of that while wearing something from Frederick's while hiking Mt. Tallac.

TheUnknownComic says,

Put on some Agent Provocateur and some Manolos and I would request you fill up my glass just to watch you pour. As for hiking, I prefer more relaxing vacations.

ShellDeFelice says,

If you're providing Opus One for the pour in some warm tropical location I might be game.

TheUnknownComic says,

Of course I do enjoy seeing the occasional cheerleading outfit :)

ShellDeFelice says,

See, I knew it...you lead with the puppy dog eyes saying all you need is a rub down and some treats. Next thing we know you are demanding a three ring circus with an extra long high wire act. Sandwiches indeed!

TheUnknownComic says,

Three ring circus - that's a nice euphemism for it :) On the plus side I've never required any woman to stand on one foot. Also, aren't spouses supposed to support each other? That doesn't mean being a brainless cheerleader either. Of course, it might require more thought than one might want to put into the relationship.
