Deja vu - oh, you're going to be important in my life
I know this has been blogged about before but - that odd moment when you look at a profile pic and there's a *ping* in your head.Half the time of course you then realize the pic is familiar because it's been borrowed from a celebrity
And sometimes you make friends, even meet, on CS and there had been no *ping* at all at the start.
But it happened with a few profile pics. One was female and eventually became a buddy - one was male and when he then wrote to me I thought ooh, I knew the minute I laid eyes on you and where is this going? Well, nowhere, as it turns out, just buddies.
And quite often nothing ever happens at all - the pinger leaves CS or is a bit of a prat, or puts up a different pic and you're like oh no, ew
Once I hurried off to look up a profile and tchah, he was in his forties and looking for females aged 18 to 25. So the ping is not always true.
But one day, maybe, I will get the *ping* and it could be a true *ping*, a *soulmate approaching* warning.
Ooh, look! A flying pig!

Sometimes I get the 'Pong'
Must be the pigs...
"And any fool knows a dog needs a home, A shelter from pigs on the wing"
They were legendary!!!
But hey, Ping is a girl and Pong is trying to catch up with her
That is the most ironic thing about being here...ask ways looking out for the inevitable and sometimes it can be really fascinating
Sometime it can be like
What the heck is happening here????
Anybody I've dated off the site has been faceless
I must be a longer.
Oh wait... sorry that's how I greet Mimi...
Oddly enough when I ventured cautiously onto the forums you were the first person I consciously registered and looked out for in the forum community. The blur is unique. I didn't ping so much as think 'I will learn one day what that woman looks like'
Psychic 101.
Why, if they ever did, you'd know bouncing bricks don't make pinging noises
I know. I've thrown a few.
I strongly distrust a member who is unable to compose more than , "hi,"
but a few manage,"hi,how are you?"
There's a silver lining....somewhere
Then I added spaces and got Mix your with the bran then eats the pigs your
Um - what?
Fortunately/unfortunately I don't have many "pings".. not that kinda guy..
But you will surely know when and if something happens.. I'm terrible at hiding that kinda stuff..
So that's why you tease the saffers, and know your biltong from your droewors. Aha!
We like those who use our words, and some of us are lovely. Well, in our own bracing way
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger ey..
Hiya
Early days when I joined cs ....all pings were nailed when found to be in a message restricted zone!
Has stopped believing in pings .......became a fan of siren alarms
Also incredibly lazy and hate washing dishes so when a local builder was refitting a kitchen, appliances and all, and I got my second-hand dishwasher for £30, yes, serious attack of poshness happened on the spot
i am a Christian, I am straight forward, strong willed and I do not smoke. ...Am looking for a woman that will be able to listen to me , communicate his feelings to me , make me laugh, hold and comfortable with,
Anyway he thinks we're a perfect match, I tell you. Perfect Match. The smoking, pah, wave it away. He saw my profile and naturally, he fell in love.
If he had said there was a ping, you know what? I might even have replied. After all anyone can get confused about a woman and his feelings. Happens to us all.
I could entertain six with ease, more if some of them liked each other enough to share cutlery and crockery
I should have known that fling would end, though. No ping at all, just the beeps of a truck reversing ready to start a run
No regrets, and lessons learned. Oh, and I closed that profile and opened another. Anyone who wants to be my 3-blog crisis has an open field
Thank you
