There is a traditional Turkish saying explaining the 3 basic needs of Turkish men (well maybe its a little old fashioned now unless you are a bandit!)

At, avrat ve Silah! - means A horse, a woman and a gun!

What would you describe your three most basic needs as?
Everyone answer please not just Turkish guys!

AND ONLY THREE!

dont be giving me big long lists now! Just 3 OK? and no smart answers like air, water and food either.

CIK ya.... why am I sure I have to explain this...

1- My special cosmetics
2- Men
3- My mp3 player

I know they're very banal, that's my banal side, but now I don't want to bother you with my deep philosophical answers.

I suppose I am duty bound to give mine since i started the thread.
Mtlm. We all have our banal side and what would humans be without it?

So my three basics. (pretty similar to MTMs)

Maquillage, Men, Mercedes! lol

Yes, just the third one's value exceeds my third one's a bit.
Then I change mine to a white sport Mercedes with a superb music system. lol

1. My children
2. My men
3. My mac

...I know that two out of three are plural – but what can I do? I can´t live without them! :-S

Not as portable as an MP3 player......
But faster at getting to the places that it can go!

I ll follow the rules (for a change )

'What would you describe your three most basic needs as?
no smart answers like air, water and food either. '


so I won't mention my daughter, my freedom, friendship, humor, fun etc (all of which i cant live without)

instead, i ll say:

- music
- cigarettes
- boots (high heeled mostly)

You did say I had to limit this to just three......
I could give you a huge list and köpekler would be near the top

Offfffffff Straighteners - thanks for reminding me Ocean - I forgot to add them again () and cats - a world without cats????!!! NEVER!



slightly off topic but i found this very strange, this morning my boyfriend refused to change his clothes in front of my cat, saying 'i dont want him to see my thing'.... does anybody else find this slightly odd?! not to mention the cat was fast asleep and not even looking at him!

Oceanmavi that's so strange because my cat used to have this effect on my Ex! Once when my boyfriend had his arms around me, my cat must have thought he was attacking me and jumped on his back and scratched him hahahaha. Ahhhh I miss him so much........the cat I mean, not my Ex lol lol lol



lol don't you just wish all boys were as caring and as loyal as cats! just jumping to your defense no questions lol
