RE: Speed dating

laugh I think that line would work too.

Speed dating

Promise me if you find a speed-dating thing in your general area you'll go handshake it's all about people who want to meet people whereas here on CS for eg some have complicated motives for being here. At least in just 5 minutes nobody will (surely?) be asking if you found Jesus, or talking at random for the sake of talking. Oh help maybe some will sit down and launch straight into politics uh oh well you don't tick their name on the list, sorted!

RE: OLD SCHOOL

it's understandable cos you had school phobia. Were you naughty? That's debatable.laugh

Speed dating

A guy honest enough to say yes, hmm. At least you could watch them wriggle and no no I want a companion for long walks on the beach and sitting in front of the fire and and well okay maybe a quick fumble or two laugh

Trouble is I'm older than you so if I tried that I'd scare them off. Maybe for me the line would be 'do you just want your feet massaged' rolling on the floor laughing

RE: Speed dating

Seems complicated laugh was never any good at getting dates lol. One thing i do have to offer is a whole bunch of attention. I was always attentive and it was mever said that i never spent enough time with anyone.

OLD SCHOOL

Thanks Danni. You're right of course. Why a headmistress didn't understand, is a puzzle. But some people are not really cut out for a job that requires understanding that we all learn differently.
I realise also that I must have had a school phobia. I was probably more anxious than others.
My father died when I was 12 and I was still at that school. I took matters into my own hands and instead of going to school on certain days, I would stay on my bus and not get off at the school, but instead stay till it reached the city. I would spend the whole day train spotting and looking round toy shops. I would of course go home at the usual time.
Was that naughty or not?

Speed dating

So maybe not your opening line laugh go with I'm a musician, happiest playing my guitar, love animals and handy round the house (are you handy round the house? Women LOVE handy round the house) (if not handy round the house go on a DIY course, lots of women do those because there are so few men handy round the house)

There are single blokes here but some are gay and some are shy and some are rich and afraid of being chased for their money and some are poor and want to see your bank account before they'll commit ... but the point is when you meet someone speed-dating two questions are ticked immediately

Single? yes
Looking? yes

Aha!

Unless you HAVE to live at home you can also tick another box on some lists, 'ready able and willing to move in' some women do like a man around all the time, they feel incomplete without one even if they don't actually NEED one they prefer one, preferably doting, on tap in case.

Speed dating

Oh, I will, and will report back when / if it ever happens.

I joined an expats club recently and noticed they have a night for solo members, might venture along for that, there could after all be members under 90 years old, although I've yet to see on one under 90 at their backgammon mornings laugh

RE: OLD SCHOOL

It can have negative effects on mental health, leading to shame, fear, and anxiety.
There is a risk of physical harm, such as bruises and injuries.
It often fails to address the root cause of behavior and does not teach positive alternatives.
It can role model violence as an acceptable solution to problems.

RE: Speed dating

I don't know about other places but here its a lot easier for a woman to date than a guy. Typically women can pick and choose who they want because there are a lot of single guys here to choose from and the guys are all fighting over the same women. Its actually a bit toxic when you look at it from a distance.

RE: Speed dating

laugh Dang! They are in demandlaugh

OLD SCHOOL

Thanks Danni wave
These days, teachers would never be allowed to hit kids. They would be sacked and charged with assault. When I was elected school captain and wore a badge, this entitled me the special privilege of being driven by the headmistress to the cricket game instead of using the bus. Part of that woman liked me, I know, but her method of teaching did not show an understanding that we all learn differently, especially at a young age, and you don't use violence to correct a minor indiscretion.

RE: Speed dating

Most of them are taken lol. Here where I am, dating is hard, not a lot of availability in a isolated place.

RE: Speed dating

Speed dating is about first impressions. Which isn’t all bad since a lot of men are just about sex right off the bat. I would sit down and ask do you just want sex? He would lean in and say to be honest…yeah. Then I would say okay. This speed date is over. NEXT! You know maybe it just would work for me after all. laugh

RE: Speed dating

Never tried it, doubt if I would be cut out for it. I like substance, speed dating is about speed.

RE: Shake shake shake

4.8 not such a big deal? but I guess if the earth never moved for someone before ... Taiwan had a monster 7.4 last week and weathered it impressively well, considering.

Spain has - and I did not know this until I looked it up - 30 a year on average, wow roughly every 11 days help the most recent was 7 hours ago. I slept through it ... perhaps if I'd been awake I'd have seen my glass of water ripple and wondered if there was a T-Rex in the area.

In the past 30 days, Spain has had 528 quakes of magnitudes up to 4.5:

1 quake above magnitude 4
7 quakes between magnitude 3 and 4
83 quakes between magnitude 2 and 3
437 quakes below magnitude 2 that people normally don't feel.

So today I learned something.

RE: Speed dating

Hey! sounds interesting. Why not gove it a try?hug

Speed dating

Voices are super-important to me too - must be said though, I rang a window-cleaner to book his services and OMG his voice was fantastic I couldn't wait for him to pitch up. Put it this way, turned out to have a face absolutely made for radio, once I'd seen him I didn't even find the voice so good any more.

However still think that sounds a good way of meeting. Good voice, good conversation, I would so meet up. The downside is that my own voice - well, put it this way, most marketing calls from real human beings assume I am the man of the house, can't see that being a turn-on lol

As for this speed-dating malarkey, there are lots of women interested, not enough men. At this point the next meet is being pencilled in for mid May and she asked if I could rope in any blokes to help that happen. Well, if all the women are being asked to sign up all the men they personally don't want -

sigh

OLD SCHOOL

My best time at this school was playing football and cricket. The uniform was a green blazer. On cricket days we wore white shorts and marched to catch a bus to the local park. The headmistress would sit on a blanket on the ground with her lady friend and watch us play after she had organised us. This was every Wednesday afternoon, weather permitting.
The girls played netball back at the school.
On normal days the boys would play football, so long as there was a ball available at break times. Kiss chase was the other activity, and the same girl always caught me. I didn't put up a struggle.
I was at that school from age 8 to 12.
