Hi! my name is Amber. I'm 22 and a college student graduating in May WooHoo!!

Hello this is my first post. My husband and I have just joined. I'm 26 years old, and married to a wonderful man! We have 2 daughters ages 5 and 1!

Wow, after reading some of the intros on this page I feel kinda old...30 here ;) For all you youngin's out there, allow me to allay your fears...being 30 is like being 25 with a lot more money and life experience :thumbsup:.

Well, after surfing the site topics, I'm VERY excited about participating! Happy hunting to me :D

I guess I should introduce myself properly as well. I'm Nadine, I live in Salt Lake City, and I'm married and have a little boy who will be three in January. I found this board thru a friend and I'm very glad he introduced me! I've become an addict in a few days ;)

Hi. I'm new to the whole TFP thing. My husband got me turned on to it. Just a bit about me.... I'm 35, a wife, a mother, a wannabe writer :-), and at 35 I need to quit being so introverted. So here I am jumping in feet first.

i just joined tfp, my bf pointed me this direction. i'm a twentysomething slacker with no kids :) i work, sometimes go to school and spend plenty of time online (although not so much during holiday season--very busy time for me and mine).

Hey, I saw a link posted to this board, I like reading what other people have to say about the world.

Hi, I'm Bryn. I've been hanging around TFP for a while now, but haven't introduced myself, or really explored past Tilted Sexuality and the Music Trivia game I'm obsessed with. *grins*

I'm 33, happily married (going on 9 years), no kids. I have two adorable dachshunds. I'm a full time student, kind of a late bloomer.... I just started from scratch after thirteen years out of school. Eventually, I'll have a bachelor's degree in English before I move on to get my Master's degree in Education.

Well, that's the salient points. If you're interested in more, just ask.

Hi, I'm Shayna and I'm relatively new to TFP. My boyfriend introduced me to it through tilted exhibition (elwoodblues) so you can see me up there if you'd like :)
I don't really know what else to say except..that I really like TFP and feel really comfortable here :)

Just realized that I haven\'t officially introduced myself, so here we go:

Hi, I\'m Jade, twenty-something in New England, currently in grad school. Nice to meet all ya ladies here!

I just realized that I never introduced myself either. Hello everyone, I'm a college student who is currently trying not to get burnt at the stake (I picked the wrong college) and to do well on finals. Now I hear a French paper calling my name and I must heed the call or fail the class.

*blinks*
 

Well, I noticed the Regina the queen introduced herself, and that reminded me that I didn't either.
Brooke is my "name" here in Michigan waiting for life to being and then realizing on random days that it already has! I wont tell you about myself - I will let others more wise that I give the story!

I am new to TFP. A friend turned me on to this site. I am 24 and single.

:p I'm new! I've posted a few times but never introduced myself. I'm 22, female....

heh..sweetpea, your enthusiasm is admirable ... but it may be wise to check dates before you quote/respond to someone ;)

Aaaanyways, welcomes to all the new ladies, looking forward to seeing you around! :)

Hello
 

Hi! I'm toni1114. I'm kinda new here. I'm into sales. Hoping to get to know you all.

hey girls... i'm new here, still trying to understand how this all works. so forgive me if i do something stupid or post somewhere i'm not supposed to. i am ALMOST 20... chicagoan, student, writer (at least i like to think so) and a lover of people. ha ha, well, most people that is. so hello, and i am looking forward to some of these posts and proceeding discussions. *waves*

Hello everyone,
I am Maria. It's a pleasure to be aboard, thanks for the welcome! I will be graduating from St. John's University in May of this year with a Masters Degree in English Literature. Yay!

I currently live in NY, I don't like it much here, it was much better when I was younger. I am the author of the book 'whispers in the wind' and currently published my newer pride 'eventide bliss' which will hit bookstores soon.

I am sure all of you females are super cool and that is why I decided to post here so that I can meet all of you!

Kisses.

good morning and welcome Maria!!!!

:::Bows::: Thank you, thank you.

:-)

Hello. I have been reading TFP for awhile through my husband, but just decided to join. It seems interesting, so I thought I would finally join. I can now post my ideas and opinions too. We recently moved to Chicago, I am getting my Master's degree, and am hoping to get some relaxation and mental breaks. I definitely need the breaks since I spend my day with 26 4th and 5th graders. Anyway, enough about me. Just thought I would type a hello and give a slight introduction.

Hey all,
I'm 21, and live inMontreal, Quebec. I've been a member here for a week or two, and my boyfriend is the most wonderful guy ever!

Welcome ophelia783 and ohh_shesus! There are a fine bunch of ladies (and blokes) here...have fun!

hi, i'm aly, a 21 yr old college student. sblime422 (current beau) introduced me to this site, and i'm hooked! you ladies are awesome.

hello i'm 35f i work at walgreen i like to fun with woman ,men to i hope we can be friend

I'm 22 and I'm a married woman looking to talk to ladies about girl stuff.

I thought about just starting a thread but thought again.
So I'll reintroduce myself seeing how most everyone probably forgot about me.

I'm married to Alpha Phi for almost 5 years now. Michigander but not for too much longer. After I graduate from school we'll be moving south. Yep I went back to school! I'm going to be a professional pet groomer. It's the perfect career for me. I know I'll be happy. No kids, and we decided not to have any. For many good reasons. A lot of things have changed with me and I've grown up even more than I thought possible, but in a lot of ways I'm still that kid at heart. I haven't been around due to my busyness and I help run a HP related forum. Hope all you olbies have been doing well and hello to all you new ladies.

Hi , I just wanted to introduce myself properly :)

My names Lynne and Im 40 and sadly all too single :( Im not too talkative and i have sadly very low self esteem which I might as well stress here and now because no doubt it will surface in time anyway.

Ive been lurking and only posted a few times since christmas but Ive decided to give myself a push and see if I can cope with being among all the grown ups :p

i may fail miserably and run away crying with my tail between my legs but nothing is gained from not trying.

Maybe ill feel at home here and end up being a prolific poster , that would be nice.

Anyway thanks for reading and i hope I have a little bit worth contributing. :)

Despite my odd nickname, I am of the female gender :lol: I haven't posted in this section yet because I haven't found much to say...

But I'm 19, portrait artist, Jimi Hendrix superfan and a lead electric guitarist.

Glad to meet you all! :)

thank for wish me my birthday i hope we on fun

I'm Gilda. I'm a middle school humanities teacher of around 30 years old (give or take a year or two). I love comic books and old movies. I'm in a three-year monogamous relationship with another woman, to whom I would be married if that were legally possible, and whom I think of as my spouse in every other meaningful way.

I think this forum is a wonderful place, and I'm impressed with the support the women are showing for each other here, and it must be nice for the guys to see how it is women relate to each other on a personal level when they aren't a part of the conversation. I haven't posted to any of the threads in this forum yet because I haven't seen anything to which I think my exeriences would be relevant.

I love the supportive atmosphere here. The tone is so much nicer than other places I tried before I found this place.

my name is wanda i like woman and men i work walgreen i like to swimming i have three kids i am 36 felman i live in dallas,texas

Welcome aboard Gals! Nice to have you all in our community. I'm sure you'll love it as much as I do. Shout out to Superredhead, Ladyhawke, Howatzin, ei555 (rock on!).
Lin and Gilda, please don't hold back, your thoughts are always relevant and this is a very supportive and loving place (especially this here Ladies Lounge).
Welcome back Atropos4!
Have fun all! :icare:
-Manny

Oh, I'm not shy about posting--I've probably got a dozen posts in various other places--I just haven't seen anything in the ladies lounge where my experiences would be relevant. Many of the threads seem to deal with how to deal with male-female relationships, which for the most part leaves me on the sidelines, which is fine with me. I still find it interesting seeing how women who are in dating situations with men handle that, and how that's different from two women in a relationship, and I'll read here just for that reason.

I'd like to hear what you have to say about those differences...maybe you'd like to post a thread about it sometime. Sounds like it would be an interesting conversation.

I'm going to hold off on posting new threads while I'm new and just contribute to others for a while, until I get a handle on this place.

However, I can say the one major difference I've noticed. Most women in a romantic relationship have a separate same-sex best friend. My romantic / sexual life partner is my same sex best friend; I don't have to separate the way I operate in my romantic relationship from how I operate emotionally with my best friend, because they're both the same person.

Gilda,
I thinks that'a really interesting. My exhusband was also my best friend and I didn't ever really have too many girlfriends (not very close ones anyway). I found that one person couldn't provide all the things I needed in a relationship. Anyway we split up for a number of reasons...
Since then I have developed a few close friendships with women for the first time. Different friends provide different stimuli and it's been very gratifying. My new boyfriend is a friend as well as a lover, but I really need my girls too.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy it here and I look forward to reading your contributions.

Yeah, I hear what you're saying. I don't want to hijack the intro thread to keep talking about this, so I'll just make one more comment.

I know married couples who say that they are each other's best friends, and I never doubt their sincerity. But in most cases, both partners have a separate, same-sex best friend (or second best friend I suppose), from whom they get things most men and woman can only get from a same-sex relationships. Sure, there are those who don't have this and don't need it, but I do think it's very common. In my case, that close same-sex relationship and the romantic one are the same relationship; they're intertwined so much that I can't separate the elements from each other.

I'll let this go for now. I don't want to hijack a thread, or even start a new one comparing lesbian relationships to heterosexual ones my third day here. Wouldn't be prudent.

Oh, and I've decided some of my experiences are relevant. I have had sexual relationships with men; enough to know that that isn't my cup of tea, but enough that I think I might have something to say about them.

Hello Everyone!
 

Well, what to say about me?

I'm a baby. I can't even drink yet. This'll be my first post on TFP, dedicated to all of the ladies out there. Or something...

I volunteer at UofT's sex-ed centre. I'm omnisexual and in a longterm relationship with a guy. I intend on doing some stencil work around the city one day, but I'm a bit of a pansy. I flirt, but it is not to be taken seriously.

I suppose that's all for now.

Hello cellophanedeity!

Yay! I'm not the newest one here anymore!

[does the dance of joy]

I was the last new girl here. This is a great place. I was a little shy about posting in here the first couple of days, but I've gotten over it. I even posted my first new thread in the Ladies Lounge. I'll be looking forward to reading your posts.

And I see you're not shy about contributing, either. Welcome.

I've been searching long and wide for a message board where I thought I would fit in... I think I found it... :)

I feel the same way Starlight4. I'm sure you'll enjoy it here.

*Ella stares at tec's groin*

*looks puzzled*

Hi everyone
 

I usually just kinda hang in the back and watch everyone else. However my friend Amnesia620 has successfully removed me from my corner. So, HI, I'm new, 27, I work full-time and go to school full-time (online classes are great).
I am also the proud owner of my own mini-me, my beautiful overly spirited 4 year old daughter! Anyway this seems like a great place and it's very addicting. :)

Welcome, ScarletLeo...nice name, by the way! ;) Glad I could help. :D
I hope you enjoy it here on TFP when you can find the time (to waste) ... Miss you girl... remember to check out my poetry in Tilted Literature...oh, and be nice to tecoyah, the moderator...he's mah homie. :lol: jk! Nah, he is a friend and he's cool, too...
as is most everyone on here...like Halx, Amonkie, Pinkie, Shanifaye, Seer666, K-Wise, etc...(sorry if I didn't name someone important)

Ok xoxoxxoxoxoxo bye! Love you!

i like girl and woman i like what you said

Months ago I became a member of TFP. But I never noticed this thread until now! :O So hello ladies, I'm settie (my crazy nickname, kinda taken from my actual name, Steph), 18, female, single, and very happy to be here! I love coming to the Ladies Lounge to read and occasionally post about the latest stuff happening to all the females on TFP. All you ladies are awesome, and I'm glad to have found such an awesome forum. :)

Hi. I am new to TFP. My name is Laura. I am almost 36, married with 2 kids. I am feeling shy right now, but would like to join in here. I could use some ladies to talk with.

Welcome sportswido05! It's always nice to have a new lady for girl talk. Don't be shy, we're eager to hear from you.

Another welcome to sportswidow - Great to see you joining us in chat!

* remembers she needs to go get dark chocolate M & Ms :) *

Woohoooo. I finally got one of these things after forgetting my password and lurking here using my boyfriend's account.

I'm 18, female of corse and work at a pottery studio. And I'm happy to be able to post in such a positive, supportive community.

:)

Just saying hi. My name's Steph. I'm 24 and have a 2 year old son. I've been a computer geek since day one and love girly stuff. Glad to be here. :)

Hello! I'm very, very new. I just found this forum by surfing around--looks like an excellent place to talk about sex & life, comfortably. I'm 36, married for one year to a super good guy, no kids, two cats (love 'em!), grad student turning into a librarian. Trying to keep stress levels to a minimum.

Sue

The heartiest Welcome to Buns and McGee,
May TFP members soon hearken to thee!

Thank you Ms. Cow. :p (more power to the cups!) BTW, your quote makes me want to read Children of the Mind - I'm going to check it out.

A welcome to Lead543 as well... enjoy yourselves, and glad to see you here!

glad to have you!

welcome to the GirlieGeek™ club ;)

@ Lead543 - a pottery studio, how neat! I took a couple pottery classes back in HS and really enjoyed it.

I should have introduced myself before ranting.

I'm Liz, 21, living in Fresno but moving to Sacramento soon. I'm pregnant with my first child (21 weeks tomorrow) which is pure luck - I've been diagnosed as infertile and told my chances of getting pregnant were worse than winning the lotto. I'm a computer-lover (so much that I built my own dual xeon server), videogame addict, and avid reader of anything I can get my hands on, usually textbooks from college. The begining of the semester I feel like a kid in a candy store, it's sick.

Welcome! And I know this makes me sound eight different kinds of perverted but everytime I read your username, I see "Dick_Pusher." :lol:

hey girls, its The Wee Penguin! i am completly oblivious when it comes to this computer stuff so if any one has any advise for me, please help! Stupid boyfriend got me to sing up! and i don't know what i am doing!

Relax -- Computer skills aren't necessary -- Reading and opinions are quite helpful.

Poke around, look at a topic that interests you and start reading.. .if you have an opinion, be sure to share it.

it's a great idea to start with the sticky threads first - -thats the threads that are at the top of each forum, those will give you the guidelines for behavior.

If you have a question.. ask.. we'll help

Now -- get out there and have fun

May I say amen to that? Mal has patiently walked me through all sorts of techno-dork questions. I'm still a techno-dork, but I'm learning slowly, but surely. :)

Heya! New lady here, so be gentle ;)

Im a mother of a 5 yr old boy and am currently in a relationship with a great guy (he's a keeper). I thought I would drop in and say hello and mingle a bit, and hopefully make a few friends along the way.

Welcome tiger4053! I hope you enjoy finding your way around this place... and friends are a garauntee if you be yourself and join in what interests you :)

I'm all new to message boards and stuff.

I'm a mother of one daughter and currently pregnant with my second. I look forward to learning more about posting properly and learning a bunch of other stuff along the way!

Hi! I'm new to TFP, but i've been browsing..and i like it alot... esp the ladies lounge.. i've learned..ALOT by just reading the different topics raised.. :thumbsup: anyway....there will be alot of questions i'll be asking along the way.. haha..plz enlighten :D

doLL.

Hi all! I'm new to the TFP. I'm also all new to message boards and that sortof stuff. I'll start by telling you alittle about myself. I'm 32 years old and have four kids ranging in age from 2 to 14. We are the typical blended family. My husband and I have been married for 4 years, together for 8. I chose Getwonk'd for a screen name because my usual screen name was taken. It was the first thing I saw while signing up, my sons box of nerds. I hope to get to know alot of you better.

Welcome :icare: You're going to love it here!!! :)

Well hello all! This forum was recommended to me by a good friend I just met (!). I'm not new to boards, but most of the posting I do is on Middle Eastern/fusion dance related sites.
I'm looking around right now, getting a feel for things. One of the things I noticed is the emphasis on contribution, so I thought the least I could do is introduce myself here.
I don't dance all the time, so during the day I'm a tech. editor and systems integration analyst.
No kids. Love and have cats. Love performance arts, and in my neck of the woods (access to Hollywood-not movie Hollywood, but old-theater/dance stuff) I am spoiled in that regard. I consider myself open-minded (but then, who admits to being closed minded? heh).
Also enjoy travel, wine (although I'm more of a wine dork than a snob--"what do you have under $10?"), Sci-Fi, chocolate martinis (as extensive field research in Las Vegas will testify!), and more than anything else, witty reparté.

I guess this is a long enough intro. See you all around, hmm?

Welcome Sultana! Great start on the contributions - I hope you find some places here to plug into your interests - all best approached with that open mind of yours :)

:cool: :D Hi! My name is Shannon.
I am married with three children.
My hubby told me about tfp and I like it so far(I just signed up today)
Look forward to taking with the girls.

Hello ladies! It's been a long time! :)

I used to be a fairly regular member here eons ago and now I have finally made my way back home! For those who don't know me (practically everyone!) my name is Barb and I am a single mother of two gorgeous boys! I love football, exploring the wonderful world of wine and playing on the net.

I look forward to getting to know you all better and reuniting with old friends! :)

had been scoping this out for a bit and thought i'd join up. i'm 28 and a very overworked social worker. just recently back together with my exboyfriend and he's driving me a little nuts :crazy: , so i thought maybe i'd try and learn more reagrding what to do about Himself. i'm not holding my breath, of course. no kids, just a cat who's also a little off-kilter.

Hey all! I'm 25 and a student (again? still? always?) in lovely Philathelphia, PA. I've been browsing and I'm excited to be a part of this community!

Welcome Fredweena and That one girl - We're glad to have you here :)

There are plenty of places to poke for interesting things to read ... Enjoy the exploring!

Looking forward to getting to know you!

Hi all, I am new. I guess this is a good place to ask, how do I get an Avatar? I couldn't find a place to add one. I found in the CP the "Edit Avatar" plave but I only have the option of "No Avatar." Any advice?

Thanks for the welcome. Wow this is such an AWESOME idea for a forum. Just for us ladies. ;)

Don't have too many female friends so it will be great to sit and chitchat with you lot.

I'm 25, single, no kids, too many pets, and slowly going crazy. :)

Nice, neat, very cool to be here! :thumbsup:
