I wouldn't say I have an "Org Life". confused Friends and family know that there are people online with whom I chat and have fun and trade CDs with. Also, that there are a few I speak with on the telephone, exchange cards/gifts with who have "crossed the line" into my everyday life.

They think it's fine, they trust my judgment.

Oh indeed, that would be a definate YES!

The site was actually recommended to me by my Mummy and my aunties,

so that I could find a lovely Org.Princess to have an arranged married with and start the

baby-making factory off!

(N.B. Must have a valid British passport and be able to juggle 3 weekend jobs aswell as putting

in a few hours behind the counter at my uncle's Spar shop!)

My daughter likes to read some of the posts... over my shoulder... confused

My boys just deal with it... I guess they're used to seeing their daddy clicking away on the computer...

My wife has not paid any attention to this... every once in awhile she asks who I'm emailing... I usually respond, I'm at that Prince site!!! lol

I'm just now starting to tell my friends at work about the site... I feel like such a dork though... razz

I really love this site. biggrin

My wife makes fun of me...

she makes a quick typing motion with her hands and says
heheheheehe....says that's what I'm like. mad

Yep, the org is one funny place. nod

(hehehehehhehe)
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

well....yes my friends know. Since i meet Julie on here i have had to fess up to it. it's kinda liberating letting people know that there is a community on the net and you find that people actually are doing the same thing you are doing. so most of my close friends know. my family doesn't really. they wouldn't get it. they know i'm a huge Prince fan but that's about it.

Almost everyone does now 'cause of Matthew. Before him, just the people I talk to the most. . .my best friend, probably my parents. . .it comes up in conversation, you know? "This guy on the org said. . ." . . .I mean, eventually you have to stop and explain what this place is.

Which is pretty damn difficult, actually. Most people can't figure out the community part aside from Prince. "Wait, it's a Prince site? Then why were you talking about a kid who got a peanut lodged in his sinuses?" or whatever. mr.green
