1. When you get heavy rains, do you get floods in your home or on your street?

2. What is your guilty pleasure TV show?

3. Do you light candles at home and what is your favorite scent?

I don't worry about it as I said there are other things in her life. I see adults who look like their phone is attached to their hand. You sound like one, sorry to say. This is just the norm and while I don't like it, there is not much I can do.

What part of we do a lot of things together is not a real life example?  Can you really not imagine doing things with your family that you both put on a calendar?  Oh and again, nobody said they have to do anything, for you to keep saying that is quite dishonest when you have already been corrected twice, now three times.

Why can't you just give me an example of how you would need someone to be on your calendar on your phone or vice versa? I am not getting why this is such a difficult thing to do.

Four times now molly, nobody said need....so why are you?  I can't give you an example of something nobody said why is it so difficult for you to understand that nobody said need or have to?

Molly must be hearing voices again, lol...given that I already gave an example in this thread where you didn't have your phone attached to your hand and enjoyed a wonderful time with friends.

Given that I have just repeated myself for the fourth time and someone has also said the same thing that I did about need, so a total of five times.   I do wonder about this.

Four times now molly, nobody said need....so why are you?  I can't give you an example of something nobody said why is it so difficult for you to understand that nobody said need or have to?

Since you said you are very close to your family and they are on your calendar, what is an example of this that you can't just add it to your calendar or they put it on theirs? Why would there be a need for an adult to synch with another adult. Not an adult with a child but an adult with an adult?

The examples you used before were for spontaneous things. Are you including that in your calendar?
