Hi friends, I'm in a confusion and would appreciate your opinions here.

I have no desire to marry and have kids again, been there, done that...but wants someone special to share some parts of my life with. I'm not looking forward to sharing the same house with that special someone and cuddle everyday. All I want is to have a respectable relationship on part time basis, what I mean by this is that I want to have a separate life, have enough time and space for myself...spend time with that special someone whenever it's convenient for both of us, like seeing each other 3x times a week. A part time relationship but with set rules and with respect to each other. So far no one agrees with what I want.

Does what I want debase the value of a relationship?



Thanks and have a good night/day everyone!

It will take years before appeal is decided upon and her chances of having the verdict overturned isn't good.

"Anyone appealing has an uphill battle,” says Rebekah Sullivan, a Washington, D.C., attorney who focuses on family law. Most likely, the lawyers who spoke to TIME said, Heard’s team will argue some legal error was made during trial and will try to overturn the verdict on the basis that the jury was influenced by things they saw and heard outside tge courtroom."

From the latest news.What Legal Experts Think of Amber Heard's Chances on Appeal

The decision was for Johnny against lying Heard.
Justice is done. 15 million for Johnny, 10 for compensation and 5 for punitive damages.

Now I am not sure what impact this case does to both of them but I have a feeling Johnny is in good shape.

She was found to have done a malicious act by lying about her defamation report as published by the Washington Post.

This drama which has become one of the most watched show on television is going to affect how this relationship squabbles will be handled. I'm sure to play and claim as a victim will be thoroughly investigated and questioned if only to punish the aggressor.

It has been awhile since I last talked about feminism and its dangers to society.

I am curious, what do people on here think about feminism today?

...bad

Flirting is an important component of social behavior and although it can easily be misinterpreted, it need not be so if you select your ‘victims’ carefully and if you follow the six primary rules about flirting.

I love flirting and openly admit it in my profile. Everybody knows me as a flirt and I have rarely picked up problems because of it.

Rule 1
Do not flirt with complete strangers.
Flirting with complete strangers is inviting trouble. While I don’t flirt with strangers, I will certainly pay a strange woman a compliment if it is deserved, whereas in flirting, I grossly exaggerate with the compliments. I will flirt with the wives or girlfriends of my friends and relatives whenever the opportunity presents itself. I even flirt with my grandson’s girlfriend.

Rule 2
Do not touch the person that you are flirting with.
You flirt with the mouth and the eyes. You don’t need arms and hands to flirt. When you touch the person, it becomes personal and it can easily be misinterpreted. Don’t hug, don’t hold hands, and don’t kiss, not even her hand. If the person you’re flirting with start touching you, move away, and if it continues, stop flirting with him/her.

Rule 3
Do not flirt with somebody if you don’t know his/her partner well.
If your friend has a new lover, it is ok to flirt, even if you were just introduced. The quicker they get used to you, the better. The bottom line is, don’t flirt if the partner does not like you.

Rule 4
If your attentions are not welcome, stop it.
Not everybody enjoys flirting and look out for them. Don’t antagonize people. If the person or his/her lover does not enjoy your attentions, stop it right there and then or you may spoil what would have been a great party.

Rule 5
Only flirt on parties or other gathering where there are many people around.
Don’t flirt with your friend’s partner if you are only two or three couples together. If you are in a public place( like a steakhouse) and there are women in the company, don’t flirt with the staff; even if you don’t have a partner with you.

Rule 6
Keep it above board.
Flirt only if there are other people in the company. Do not flirt if you happen to meet alone on the verandah or while you’re dancing. Do not single somebody out to flirt with. If you want to flirt, flirt with every body.

So there you are. Six simple rules and if you follow them, you will never get problems about flirting. Flirting is a pleasure and a great icebreaker at parties and gatherings. People will see you as a big sport and it will often see you invited again and again.

But flirting has a serious down part if you have a real interest in a somebody. He or she will not take your attentions seriously but if you scale your flirting a bit down towards that person and talk some sense to him or her, your message will get through. If you want to know which girl I fancy at a party, just find the girl I flirt with the least.


I wish you all a great weekend and don’t flirt too much.

What would I call those people on CS I would enjoy having a drink with if the chance came up, would go out of my way to meet, have talked to a great deal over the last nearly-two-years, and really like?

I follow, and am followed by, hundreds of people on Twitter - I've met, hmm, about twenty of them, a fluctuating group of us meet up several times a year, always fun. Friends?

I have hundreds of friends on Facebook - some genuinely are, scattered all over the world, we often haven't seen each other in years and may never meet again, but we share news and photos. Some are colleagues from earlier jobs, and some are writers I may one day meet. Facebook calls them all friends.

Real life, a handful. Very highly valued.

Easy to find out who's a true friend - screw up, or go through a challenging time, then see who sticks around.

Okay, not easy. But definitely interesting!

Yet what is a person who is entertaining, amusing, but ducks out whenever they have something more interesting on, or you aren't as much fun as usual? We always do enjoy catching up.

There need to be more words than just 'friend'

I’m in love with two women and I don’t know how to proceed. I really love my girlfriend, but I’m also in love with her son’s mother.

Should I come clean and tell them about it, or should I let them fight it out when one of them hears it from somebody else?

Some of the guys here may envy me but I can tell you that at my age it is blue hell to keep two women happy. Everything I do, I have to do twice.

It is not my nature to cheat but I cannot help it. They are both so cute; I cannot make up my mind about which of the two I really want. I’m so scared that I may choose the wrong one.

And the mere thought that I may lose both in the end, keeps me awake at night. What shall I do?


I hope your Monday is not blue.

I've been in long relationships and I've been single, and I prefer together. I'm not a fussy bloke. I'm tidy, I don't snore too loudly, I notice when she looks good and I couldn't be less bothered if she looks like the Bride of Dracula in the morning. I look a bit of a werewolf myself until the old razor has been wielded. Take me as you find me, and as long as we want roughly the same, we're good.

Single is different. I get invited out to dinner with friends, I don't need to say 'I'll check with the government if we can make it.' I want to work late into the night, my choice. I want to climb a mountain, that's between me and my knees.

Distance relationships combine the two worlds. You have the phone calls, the emails, sending texts whenever you want to share something, but you are still living on your own. I made a long-term decision two days ago because the price was right, the place was right, and the chance too good to miss. It hasn't gone down too well with the government.

Made me wonder. Made any decisions lately, big or small, which pleased you, but might have been completely different if you had to take someone else into account?

Hey! Yes you… the fella who moved from 69 to 88; I thought I found a perfect partner for you… and then I realized you’re not Italian. But you have that Italian look and we can still save the day if you are willing to relocate to Italy even if it is just for a while.

This gal is hell bent on a tall, dark and handsome Italian guy and she has been searching for years now; just as desperate as you. You’re already tall and dark and with a new pic we can get you to some degree of handsome as well.

The Italian part is a bit problematic but there are many booklets teaching Italian phrases and you do really have an Italian look. She is South-African, cannot speak Italian and won’t even catch on that you only know a few phrases. And to sweeten the deal you can tell her that your father is a Count of some sorts. She very status aware. This will go easier than what I thought.

Hooking up with her is going to be just as easy. All you need to do is walk by and pinch her on the bum in true Italian style. She’ll love it and you will live happily after.

When I think of it, you are a perfect match. You’re both weird and both have the tendency to ask the same question over and over.

Ah, I better prep you for the most important question that she may ask. Tell her that you will inherit the title of Count but your father is planning to wear the 'o' round his neck into his grave..

And then I have the perfect escape route for you if your union turns sour. Just tell her that Catfoot is your best friend and that he’s coming to visit for six weeks. I can guarantee that she’ll leave before the next day.

If you’re interested, let me know so I can point you in the right direction.


I’m doing it here because the two of you have another common trait. Neither of you seem to read the comments on your own blogs.

The contents of this blog is purely fictional and a figment of my imagination. Any resemblance to anybody, dead or alive, is absolutely incidental.

Although I adore women, they are an enigma, no guide books or code breaking machines are yet capable of deciphering or understanding what these beautiful creatures really want.

An extensive search of the Internet and time spent correlating the results showed these are what women want in a man:-

Honesty, Understanding, caring, strength, compassion, security and Loyalty.

I think these would mean different things to different women and they still dont help without more information.

So let us men ask questions, and or let the women tell us what they really want.

As a vast majority of people on the blogs are around 50 or older, so have women's priorities changed?

I dont want sexist or stupid questions, might delete any of them!

My first questions:

What makes you feel special?

What are you really looking for? (not a glossy impossible match like some profiles)

I, and I'm sure some of you do too, view other members and think, 'Yeah, they would be a good catch'

Don't get me wrong, not necessarily for myself, but for somebody.

There would be both men and women on here that I would think that about.
That they should not be single and hope that the right person sees what I see in them.

Of course, the natural 'matchmakers' see these things, and actively try to find a suitable partner for them

Me, nope. I just hope somebody sees what I see in them



Of course there are the 'others' too. The ones that you recoil in horror at when you see somebody nice being lured into their web.
But that's another blog
