A decision has been made...

[dana]

Dana... that's tough man, but there's more to life than clothing.


You know, of course, that you can STILL come to XMarks and chat with us. There's always guys that come on here to see what's going on and spend some time with friends. There's also a lot of discussion about music, festivals, culture and "off topic" subjects. This is more than just kilts... it's a cultural center.

To many of us, educated supporters are even more important than kilt-wearing pretenders. It's a fine distinction that you've earned.

Thanks Jimmy. You've gained my respect over the time I've been here, I appreciate your support.

Thanks for inviting me to continue visiting XMarks. I hope I can still feel like I can contribute in a meaningful way. You guys are great guys, not just kilt wearers.

Thanks again.

Sorry to hear about your decision Dana, but being a married man, I understand compromise all to well. I hope you will stick around and enjoy the company. I also hope that you will not rule out any local Celtic festivals, as they can be a great time (kilted or not). It's toobad we couldn't come up with any solutions for you yesterday in the chat room.

Anyway, stick around.

Hi Colin,

Thanks for your words of encouragement. We have a great group of intelligent folks here don't we. After reading all of the notes, I'll probably stick around and contribute when I feel like I have something to say that's worthwhile. This is a one-of-a-kind place

Btw, you have a very beautiful wife and great looking kids. You are a lucky man.

Thanks, I think so too.

Who can resist those Canadian beauty's? I know I couldn't

Dana,
My condolences, but to echo the general sentiment, you have made the correct move. I resisted the donning of a kilt until my bride wisely purchased one for me, but that's her desire. If I were to wear a camo kilt, however, she would hate it. We have to keep our priorities, and it sounds like yours are correctly placed. Best of luck, and I hope to continue to see your insigtful posts,

hehe.

But Dana, even if you are kiltless, I still hope that you stick around here. and if you ever come out to BC to see your in-laws, give us a call.

Dana,

I am speechless as to what to say, but like everyone else has stated, the decision to keep your relationship intact far out weighs the decision to persue kilt wearing. You are still one of my kilted brethern, and I would still be honored that you still post here, but if it is to painful I do understand.

This is a very supportive group, and I really think that we will still support you regardless of you being kilted or not, for you are one of us and that will not change!

Take care my friend and give your wife my best regards.

Hey Raphael,

From the responses I've gotten, I'll be hanging around and contributing as often as I can. I'll be kilted in spirit. You guys have been a great support.

You better believe that if I get to BC for any reason I'm going to contact you. Wouldn't want to miss that

WOW! I'm not sure what to say. To be considered one of your kilted brethern is quite an honor. And to be counted among you means so much to me. I hope we all never take for granted the friendships we've made here. This is a very special place.

I'll continue to post here, although it will more with jealousy than pain.

Thanks Glen, you guys are great.

Oh man! Dana!

I'm sorry to hear about the decision you've had to make, but I respect you for it. Jimmy's completely right - there's more to life than clothes.

I'm really glad you decided to stick around! I've enjoyed getting to know you over the past few months, and wouldn't want you to leave for anything. If there's anything we can do to keep you encouraged, let us know. And feel free to chat with us in the chatroom any time too.
