Misconceptions
I’m far from being an expert on what impresses women, but, over the years, I’ve picked up a little knowledge of what doesn’t. Maybe I’ve even got misconceptions about that in some cases where I’ve been the victim of a double bluff. As naive as I may still be, I’ve certainly come a long way since my teens when I thought that motorbikes with very loud exhaust pipes worked like an aphrodisiac. Then, when I got a bit older, I remember having to shed my belief that having a thorough knowledge of standard timber sizes and the relative merits of hard and soft wood made me irresistible to the opposite sex.I don’t think we ever get too old to stop making prats of ourselves by barking up the wrong tree when trying to show off, so I’m always eager to learn what other misapprehensions I might need to get rid of.
Suggestions welcome.

Anyway, I’m no Shania Twain therefore I’m pretty much easily impressed with just anything
Best comment you have ever posted
As we get older i think in the main a firm friendship, of trust, respect and interest that both can share, would come first.
I'm sure some women are impressed by ostentatious men though.
Here's wishing you a bloody awful Christmas.
Well, Art can come and pick MiMi up in a Merc.....
But only problem is......
He hasn’t got one!!!
I don't mind Mercs either, I just don't like name dropping brand names to impress me.
My last partner was a car lover and had some lovely ones, but luckily he only said he'd pick me up in his car, no brand name
Har, that'd do fine. But just say car
eg. My boss drives a 100k Porsche for his 0.5 mile drive to work
despite the fact that he's grossly overweight
Everybody who's physically able should ride a bike.
It's practically free (no fuel, insurance etc.) , it gets you to you destination faster in a city, it's fun and it's super healthy. No downside.
And if you DO drive, folks should base their car choice on fuel efficiency and cargo space primarily, otherwise you just look like a total knob.
Personally, I would rather pull my hair out than have to do that, but some people don't have choices.
I have a car myself, I also commuted for a few years, though even then I parked outside of town and cycled the rest of the way.
The things you own end up owning you.
Sorry, Har
Well... I guess, it's what I'm looking for in this life. Have yet to succeed.
Well... even from you.
