it was an innocent mistake....I am aware of your name...I just mis-typed but I fixed it as soon as I realized it...thanks for pointing it out though....it's late and we all make mistakes or mis-types occasionally....but thanks to friends we find them and fix them! I hope my posts help....and I bumped another one to show you both where the "rules" are stated.... I didn't make the rules....but I do "obey" them....whether I agree with them or not. Have a good night!

Cassie I did a quick search and was unable to find the information. I guess I will go to the offices and print what you have posted. It will make my life simpler and save me time.
FYI - I believe when you use the term "sweetie" I think that may be considered Sexual Harrassment. It has been a long time since I have taken one of the courses, but please check it out if you want. Thanks for all the information. HB |

Again hope it helps..... Although I can't imagine for the life of me why this has become an issue suddenly when it has been discussed so many times.... I am sure when we do a thread/post search we will all find more if actually needed...and/or a trip to one of the offices...thanks again for the interest... Have a goodnight HB....

Cassie, please correct me if I'm wrong. BUt I think you've stated a few times that you are looking for friends aged 34 to 50. Well, good for you!! I can certainly understand your desire to be with people your own age. And especially with a young daughter. When I was your age, I certainly respected my elders, but wanted to be with people my own age with common interests.
I'm assuming that most members of TOTV are aged 55 to 90. Therefore, TOTV seems a strange place for you to try to find friends your own age. I think you said that you are 34 years old (please correct me if I'm wrong). I would really like for you to be happy. You seem to be seaching for something. I hope you find what you're looking for.

Bare...I am actually not really sure what YOU are looking for! I am happy...very happy....and LOVE all my friends that I have here in TV and on TOTV. Now if you would look back to my other posts on this thread you will find that I was just interested in meeting MORE people.... I was curious to see if there were any other people in this world that have chosen to live TV's (or around TV's) that happen to be under 50. Admittedly it is an unusal occurence, so I was interested in meeting them and hearing their story. Why did they choose here...what brought them here at a younger age then the norm... Some how this thread was blown way out of control and was not carried on with it's original intent. There are some people here that seem to think I may have ulterior motives for moving to TV's....but they don't know me....although I have explained things over and over and over again....it doesn't matter....they can think what they want. I will explain no more... I honestly do not care anymore....trust me...I don't care... However, this under 50 question's intent was just like anyone else going out to find other like minded people for a small group once in a while....like sports fans finding sports fans, bikers finding others, religious people finding others....to share conversations and experiences. As you know there are not many people in their 30's or 40's that CHOOSE to live in this area...and I just wanted to see if there were any on TOTV that were hiding in the closet so to speak. I wanted to share my excitement and love of this area. While I appreciate all of the people that "suggested" I go elsewhere to find friends my own age.....you just don't get it! I don't want to make friends my own age....I have friends of many ages....I wanted to share experiences with other people in similar circumstances.... why is this such a hard concept to understand... I am not sure why you seem to care so much about my well being.... I guess I should just be very grateful to have such concerned person looking out for my best interest. Although it confuses me that you keep bringing it up again and again. Is there anything more you would like to say. Do you not think that a 34 year old should own in TV's...or hang around with people over 50.... It is ok if you feel that way....you have the right to your opinion and there are a few...just a handful on here that agree with you....as they have stated this to me. Sad that you might feel that way....because I thought you seemed very open minded and care free and I am actually a very pleasant person....and sometimes fun to be around....  But I have MANY friends here in town and they love me for who I am....everything about me....including my age....or despite my age. So Bare....while I appreciate you wanting me to be happy....you really don't need to worry about me. Let it go....time to move on....  I am doing just great and I really wouldn't want you to waste your time over worrying about me and whether or not I have friends...I do.... and guess what?! I met a lot of them right here on TOTV....  where I intend to stay for a very long time....

I think that about covers it all, well put.. Some people think if your under 55 you dont need be around this place. There are alot of younger people that work here, and built this place that are friends with the residents that live here. i guess maybe some people can not grasp that concept. C-325 nothing wrong with what your about!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Keep going on and keep posting!!!

Cassie
You are so blessed to have so many people concerned about your well-being. How nice is that! I have checked and re-checked many other postings by members and I think I am correct when I say that it appears that you are on the minds of other TOTVers more so than any other contributor. In fact, there seems to be a few people who are so concerned with your well-being that they continually offer you advice on how to be even more happy than you already appear to be. Very nice of these folks; don't you think? You and I have had fun calling each other "Cousin" but, of course, we're really not. If we really were cousins, I would be ashamed of myself because, as family, I am not nearly as troubled about your happiness as others are. Yes, so many people really care for you. I guess that's why you purchased a home in TV and intend to spend, gosh what would it be, another 40 or more years enjoying the lifesyle! Yeah, in the year 2045 or so, please be as kind to the young "whipperstappers" that may be living in TV at that time as we older folks have been to you. |

 JMHO, when a young person seeks an old-timer out to be their friend, rest assured they will be the most devoted friend, as they've looked hard for your friendship and to probably learn from your experiences.... Yesterday I received 3 emails from friends in LA who are all under 40.... God bless them for still wanting me as a friend...... Cassie, I'm a "tad" over 50, but will you still be my friend?? See you for lunch later..... have a great day and stay as "sweet" as you are!!!

Subject closed?
I say hold down the jubilation. Seeing there are 6,000 plus members on TOTV and you only got 3 positive responses, two of them being gimmies. Let's see who else weighs in.

I was asked to explain my recent post to you and I will. You (Cassie) seem to be under the impression that the people of The Villages all espouse your views on the issue of amenities usage, age restrictions, etc. Actually The Villages concept was for folks who have traversed life and have gone through trials and tribulations, many of which you have never seen or experienced yet. No matter how one spins it, you have not seen or done it all. We all have. Some of us have gone through 30 to 40+ years of life you have not been through yet. That is why we are peers and you are not. Grandchildren are fine to see on squares as they visit their grandparents, but they don't live here 365, they go back home. We (us older folks) have a much different concept about living in The Villages than a younger person would. We have paid our dues to finally get here, in fact some still struggling to try, and when they get here they want to be comfortable in our environment. I wish you no ill will, and what happens will happen but please step back and look at the window from the other side.
