The state of doing anything in your means to get what you want.
The state of being so lonely and so insecure, due to lack of esteem, that you will date/marry or have sex with anyone. You dont care weather or not it is bad for you, but only how "good" it feels to have somebody you think is compatible with you and likes you for yourself. You decieve yourself into thinking that this person makes you happy, when in reality it's only the feeling of love that makes you happy. Instead of waiting for the right person to come along, you settle for someone who is much less ideal for you and can make your life even more miserable.

In being desperate, you deceive yourself into thinking that this person makes you happy when, in reality, it's only the feeling of love that makes you happy. You are so desperate for love, attention, and affection, that you resort to lowering your standards. You may even "settle" for an abusive relationship, just for the sake of not being alone. The state of being desperate is a dangerous thing.

A state with extreme scerenity, significant sunshine (over 300 days of sunshine a year in Denver) and the best opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. The Rocky Mountains make it the state with the highest average elevation. Denver, its capital and largest city (population 570,000), is called the “Mile High City” because it’s capitol is exactly one mile in elevation. Denver is consistently ranked among the top of America’s “fittest” , “thinnest” , and “most educated” cities. About half of the state’s 5 million residents live in the Greater Denver Metro area. Other important population centers include Colorado Springs, Pueblo and Fort Collins—all of which are located on the eastern edge of the Rocky Mountains. Colorado has extreme variations in climate. People in Denver can get a tan and snow ski in the same day. The enormous flat plains of eastern Colorado get huge thunderstorms in the spring and summer that make for a great lightening show and tornadoes. Colorado is where the song, America the Beautiful was written. “For purple mountains majesty above the fruited plain” describes Colorado to a tee. Beef cattle and wheat are its two largest agricultural products.
I wouldn't mind living in Colorado. It's progressive, has a reasonable cost of living and generally friendly people.

Also known as living together or cohabitation. It's the practice of a couple--usually a man and woman--living together having sex and playing "house" without the benefits of marriage. Living in sin is not a good idea for a couple who is considering marriage, because the couple can get to know each other well enough by the time marriage occurs and living in sin makes a couple more than twice as likely to end up divorced.

Living in sin is never a good idea for a couple, and usually ends up a futile attempt to bring a couple closer.

Refers to a married couple who probably does not plan on staying together: a "warm up" to a future relationship for both partners. It focuses on convenience instead of commitment.
A starter marriage is the dumbest thing ever. It's an oxymoron becuase the word MARRIAGE infers staying together permamantly. If you don't plan on staying together, why get married? Just break up and stop wasting each other's time for real relationships.

the war that occurred in the United States during the 1860s under President Abraham Lincoln that caused the highest number of casualties than any American war. It was a war between the North (the Union) and the South (the Confederacy) that centered around slavery—the North wanted it abolished while the South permitted it for economic reasons. The central issue of slavery began to divide the country in the 1840s as members of Congress bickered over the issue and as new states entered the Union. When a new “free” state entered the union, a new slave state was required do the same to create a balance. It even divided certain states themselves-- Missouri and Virginia, by which West Virginia seceeded from it after the war.
The war began shortly after Abe Lincoln became President in 1861 when the Confederacy attacked the Union's Fort Sumter, South Carolina—allegedly by mistake--and didn’t end until 1865 when Confederacy General Robert E. Lee surrendered to Union Commander Ulysses S. Grant in Appomattox Courthouse in Virginia. The Battle of Anteitem was the deadliest battle of the War. Stonewall Jackson, Robert E. Lee and Jefferson Davis should have all been hung afterwards for being a traitor to the United States, in my opinion.

Don’t mess with Texas. The Lone Star State. Was once part of Mexico then became its own country then became a state in 1835, causing the Mexican War, then became part of the Confederacy then back to the U.S. Part of the Bible Belt. The state where everything is bigger: the road signs are bigger, billboards are bigger, boobs on broads are usually bigger, people are bigger or fatter, and big SUVs. Texas is just too dam big, period. It’s the 2nd largest state by area, covering some quarter of a million square miles in the southern/southwestern U.S. with 263,000 square miles. It could fit several Midwestern states in its vast territory. It takes about 13 hours to drive on I-10 from El Paso to Houston or vice versa and about the same amount of time from Harlington/McAllen to Amarillo. The drive, no matter which way you go, is dull and mostly flat with not much of a change in scenery, unless you are close to El Paso, which looks like Arizona. Texas is so big that El Paso is closer to San Diego or Los Angeles than from Houston and Houston is closer to some areas of Florida than from El Paso.
Texas is also the 2nd largest state by population (22,000,000) and growing quickly. Austin is the capital and 17th largest in the country, while Houston is the largest city and 4th largest U.S city, but Dallas-Ft. Worth is the largest metro area. Other large cities include San Antonio, El Paso, Fort Worth, Arlington and Corpus Christi. Texas has three cities alone that have more than one million residents: Houston, Dallas and San Antonio—the most of any state. And these three cities are among the top ten largest American cities. Houston is the largest single city and home to NASA and the Johnson Space Center, numerous energy firms, petrochemical manufacturers and one of the largest medical centers. Dallas is a major financial and high-tech center, San Antonio is, well.....only known for the Alamo and that’s it. Nothing special otherwise about San Antonio.
Because Texas is so large in area and population, it is very diverse. Texans come from all walks of life: suburban soccer moms, whitetrash, hillbillies, hicks, rich oil magnates, inner-city gangbangers, cattle ranchers, cowboys, Bible thumpers, farmers, poor Mexican migrants, anything and everything. Diversity is also found in its economy. It has the 2nd largest economy in the nation after California. Houston is the country’s leading energy center and was built on oil. It also has more energy firms than anywhere else. It’s also the home to NASA and the Johnson Space Center. Houston is also a major medical center, thanks to the University of Texas Medical Center. And the Houston area is the country’s leading center of petrochemical production. The Dallas-Ft. Worth area is home to many financial and insurance firms, high-tech firms (Texas Instruments and Dell Computers) and transportation and trade (American Airlines and Southwest Airlines). Austin, the state capital and 4th largest state capital by population is in a class all by itself. It’s a major, hip college town thanks to the University of Texas at Austin. Austin has frequently been ranked among the “youngest” ,“coolest”, “most educated”, “weirdest” and “most fit” cities in the country. It’s the “live” Music Capital of America and it’s recent slogan has been “Keep Austin Weird.” San Antonio, the 3rd largest city (unofficially 2nd largest according to 2007 estimates), is not known for much except for the Alamo and Riverwalk. El Paso is nothing but a craphole. Some areas like Laredo and Harlingen/McAllen are among the poorest cities in the United States and populated by almost nothing but illegal immigrants and Mexican migrants looking for free handouts. These two areas are two examples of everything that is wrong with our federal government not enforcing immigration law. Not surprisingly, they were ranked among the poorest and worst metro areas in the country to live, according to the Places Rated Almanac of 2007.

I honestly wouldn’t mind living in Texas depending on location. Wheather you love it or hate it, Texas unarguably is the epitome of state pride.
