A CS member this morning wrote in a post to me on one of the threads, asking me to say 'hi to riz' for her, and to thank him for blah comment on some thread. I thought, "Oh, no, not again"..
Several other people have thought the same, but they had mentioned it to me privately. I think this false assumption has arisen from dear Rizlared's post somewhere that he was in love with an Australian lady living in Italy. Well, I currently live in Australia, though I am an Italian also.
Now Rizlared seems to be the sweetest guy, but the assumption just aint true.LOL. I had already alerted dear Riz once before of this misconception, so I write this publicly in good humour, and mostly for the sake of his lady love, Australia1, who is sane enough to stay off the forums!
The other reason I started this thread is to pick up on the many times each of us makes assumptions, where we are so convinced, we would gamble our homes or mothers or our children, we were so convinced we had it right. BUT, we end up being so WRONG.
But what ARE some of the assumptions you have made, that turned out to be, let's just say, way off the mark?
Good post. And yes, I'd wait for a public statement from the couple, or just mind my own business. So far, anyway. I made an assumption once. I was wrong. I haven't done it again.

Just give up Veneer we all think you and Riz make a lovely pair and are in the middle of emailing him that you have the hots for him right this moment lol.

Great, given I don't know the man. But I thought I would liven things up after seeing some morbid posts.
Keep the assumptions rolling!
And Dawn, I do love the way you always spell my name in that way. Obviously not a typo.
Hi Veneer, I probably have but at the moment can't think of any. Glad she is lady enough not to be upset and bring it to the forums. Sometimes when 2 people become friends and tease and flirt on here people do make assumptions. I knew nothing about this one, that I can remember anyway. Thank you for making it clear to people.
One thing I have learned, if I ever get fortunate enough to have a man in my life again, I will not post it on CS until I know it is going to be a lasting thing and then only if it is OK with him.

Hi sassy. 1. Strangely enough, I have rarely posted to dear riz, maybe a couple of times only.
2. Good idea to keep that private until you both agree, and when it seems that there is a lasting commitment between the two of you.
