Hello everyone, my names Jim and i thought that i would write a few lines to say g'day. I'm new to this whole business and have been divorced now for almost 3 years and thought that it's about time that i started to ressarect my social life, Life can get pretty quiet at times and i think it would be nice to meet some new people and who knows maybe even meet someone special. So what i want to know is how do i go about it? I'm not after some one night stand type of thing or anything like that as i think there's enough sites catering to that sort of thing already, i want to meet happy well adjusted people, even if only to broaden my social life, make some new friends and enjoy life a little more, Well folks that's it in a nutshell, i'll look forward to hearing from you, byefor now.

Hi Jim
Welcome to .CS.
cswelcome

Just jump right in and start posting your thoughts in the forums. If you like amature photography why not join in the next photo comp. They are always a lot of fun.

And there is always the search option to see if there are ppl close by who might want to get to know you.

I enjoy joining in with a great bunch of ppl , having a laugh or sharing opinions. I hope you will too.

Anyone can give their vote on the pics we put up on here. It is what appeals to you. We have had a few who did not appreciate our amueter amuater ameuter (whatever) attempts, it is just a fun way to connect on here.

your welcome Jim
are you any good at gold prospecting, taking pictures, knowledgeable in the ways of politic's, have you got Oakshots ear???

Watch out for scammers, (the pretty wee young things that don't have much luck writing in English and ask you to message them on there yahoo, skype or msn) Nigerian be more likely, just delete on site.

Hi Jim

just do what is right for you, but yep, the forums can be fun way to get to know people

good luck, as a few have said beware of the scammer, not just for the money aspect, but the emotional aspect of it too.

Hi ah Jim wave

Welcome to the forums... cswelcome

We tend to be fairly tame in here on the Aus/Nz.. but we try to have fun and interact... via chatting and the photo comp.

The comp for this past month has just ended, and the idea is to go on Wash's thread and pick the winner..

so the method is pick five photo's you like, and Wash will do his tally...

Highest votes win... and what do they win you ask... dunno

The honor of picking the subject for the next comp.. which you are welcome to join in.

We are also having a CS get together in March... there is a thread about that... Serene is the OP... and its scheduled for March 23rd in Melb. we pretty well are all going..

Most interstaters that come along, come for more than one day, and I have a thread for the Friday night at Kanelas ... spanish resturant and dancing... if you are inclined.

Ok OK.. we wont make you sing or do anything untoward like tar and feather ya... troooly... wink

So, join in and enjoy the company... joy

Hey Jim wave

It can get a bit daunting dipping your toe back in the dating game again, take things slow, be yourself and be aware most people aren't, lol. You have had plenty of healing time so time to look after you, just take some risks, meet some gals who take your fancy and work from there. Be careful not to get stuck behind the monitor for too long. Good luck and welcome to the forum, always a good place to fall back on for some light entertainment and social fun. The more the merrier so get amongst it cswelcome danceline

Well, you are off to a great start of "how do I go about it?"

Look, send a flower, email.

Have a shot, and don't get disheartened by the scammers, and the rejection that comes with the territory of expressing interest in some on this site.

Be yourself, be real in your expectations, and consider your paramaters for a potential date. How close? Looks? Personality? Kids? Country?

Have fun, and take it slow.

And secondly, you have to do the "P" word

tonyxf: Yes Aba, been a while crocodile, but hope you really enjoyed your world trip, cant remember where you went. Perfect clone there, although could be me, but one eye looks different to the other.


It is just you... The camera has some interesting features, but it's a perfect clone.

World trip? New York, Boston, Niagara Falls... it was all very spectacular. I made some wonderful friends on the trip, a lot of Australians on the tour. We are having a reunion in March... hopefully I can make it to the weekend. They keep nagging me incessantly to check my roster, but ... my roster changes according to demand lately.


... Sadly , not my demands.

So, how has everything been with you, Tony?

Oh, so the innocent pose in your profile pic is a rouse to suck us all in?

Sounds interesting.... I can't wait until you "unleash the beast"..... yay
