Finding your Ex on the same dating site!
Well this is awkward! Finding my ex on the same dating site!
Has this ever happened to you! How would you react! Would you block her from seeing you or would you flaunt yourself in front of her by posting your name every place you could. Or perhaps this would not be awkward at all!

When a lover becomes a brother
Not all relationships end badly, in some cases following a relationship a deep friendship ensues that in many ways can be more worthwhile than the relationship ever was.
Have you ever had a relationship that bombed, yet afterwards, found you could confide in your “ex”, ask for help and advice, tell all your worries too whilst knowing you are not going to be criticized or made to feel vulnerable?

Connecting Singles worked for me.
Hi guys!
My name is Peter. Let me tell you about a love story that goes back to 1990. I met this beautiful Swedish girl when I was on business in London UK back in 1990. Sitting at the hotel bar after close of business that day, my eyes came into contact with a lady who could have been a pin up movie star.
I just had to speak to her and started up a conversation.
She only had a couple of drinks and we decided to go to the park next to Earls court. It was breath taking to sit with a lady who listened to me, in turn we both had so many questions for each other.
I knew that from the first moment we saw each other, I had fallen in love with this Swedish girl.
After one of the most beautiful nights in our lives, we said goodbye the next day as she was flying back to Sweden, I was due to go back to Scotland at the end of the week.
I promised to call her and did a few times when I arrived back in Scotland. The fifth time I called her, a young child answered the phone and could not speak English. I said best I could.* Tell your mom I will telephone Friday* When that Friday came, I was heart broken. The number was no longer connected. With the UK and Swedish operator figuring out that there was no forwarding address number.
I met a lady in Scotland and we had a relation ship for 18 years until she ended up with my best friend.
After a while I thought it was time to date again.
All those years later, cell phones and online computers were all the rage.
A few short relationships later, I decided to try online dating.
One day, I came home from work and saw a couple people had viewed my profile on Connecting singles.
When I looked at the second one, this picture of a beautiful looking woman, mature in years like me. She was pulling my eyes to her picture. There was something about her that I was drawn to.
I think it was two days later when I had a message from her. She just wanted to know if I was the Peter she met in London in 1990!!!!
WOW! You could have knocked me down with a feather.
Yeppers! It was Veronica.
10 days later she flew over to Edinboro and I fell in love all over again. She told me I was the only one night stand she had ever had. LOL. Technically.
We ended up with her moving to Scotland and my home. That was in 2012. On September 21st 2013, we married. ( See Picture on my profile. )
Last year after having cancer for the third and fourth time, she didn't have any fight left in her. She passed away in front of me.
I loved her to bits and still do. Now I have to get on with life and living. I have cried honest tears. Grieved hard, but, now I am starting to laugh and live again.
What better place to come back to than Connecting singles, where beautiful things can and do happen.
In the end, I was given some beautiful years with a woman that I thought I would never be with. I was also part of the solution, not the problem with what she had in the cancer.
Love sometimes finds a way. In my case, It did. It was fate!
I am young at heart at 64 years old. My mind is of a 30 year old, but my body reminds me I am not lol.
Thank you for taking time to read this. Thank you connecting singles.

Why Knowing Good English Is Important
Got this from a Swedish guy.... I've always have a soft spot for them, blond, blue-eyes and all that but now.........
Why I Will Never Admit I Was Ever On A Dating Site
REPRINT OF A LETTER, A GOOD LESSON IN GENERAL FOR THIS PLACE.
Hi,
Would you flip me the bird or something polite just to let me know you're not interested in corresponding same as if I were a real person standing in front of you please? Because, basically, I am a real person standing in front of you only the fact that you disappear before I realize I am standing there talking to myself to I realize you do not respect me like you would a real person.
I would prefer your rejection to apathy to be honest. A politely worded rejection would be so much better if it would not drain too much of your energy to muster. There is no way to duck rejection, and it is kind of insulting (when you think about it) that the rejected has to take the responsibility for the rejecter as well. It is rude. I mean, it is not like you have received me as a form letter, some junk in the mail. How would you feel if you basically only received form letters here? If I had sent you a form letter, I would not mind so much being treated like some assembly line garbage. I looked at your profile, commented on it, and offered you an opening for dialogue. Instead of feeling gratitude for a dilemma of choice, you react with apathy that puts the rejected into an awkward position socially to realize he or she is basically having an imaginary conversation with him or herself.
That is a sad feeling apathy amplifies to the lonely. I would guess there are a lot of lonely people here for apathy to hammer down like so many nails. Scammers never reply, so there is that apathy bringing down the mode average of communication here, by the numbers. The weight of apathy can be oppressive if a scammer is successful filling the void real people leave here with their apathy. A "real" person should act real, IMHO of course.
By “real,” I mean adult.
I thought I would explain this to you because you're not an unintelligent chick.
Cheers,
R. A.

Have you ever...?
As a single person, you don't get touched. You don't even realize how important it is until someone touches you (in whatever capacity that encompasses) and you find yourself hypersensitive to their touch.
How does that make you feel? Do you welcome it? Or wish they'd bugger off so because it makes you too cognizant of what you're missing?
I know this is a weird blog, but I'm single and I wonder things.

Man 64 yr-old man seeking woman, 18-35
I wrote to him:
Hi, wanting to meet your daughter or granddaughter???
Don't you think that is ridiculous. But if you wish so, each to their own. My beautiful granddaughter is too old for you.
He answered:
Not sure you should be here sending rude messages to others, an old woman like you should know better, maybe it's you shortage of education
(I am 75) and have no intention wanting to meet a 64yr who wants an 18-35
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
