I agree Molly. I like to start a relationship as friends and if we feel a mutual chemistry we take it further, into a relationship. Sometimes the relationship doesnt go anywhere but we dont want to lose such a good friendship as its what the foundations were built from. For me, once a relationship is done, its done but a friendship can last forever.
So glad someone has FINALLY raised this issue. I'm saying it til im blue in the face..................several of us girlies on this are of the mind that there are countless married/attached guys hiding behind faceless profiles.
Xin nian hao! I celebrated your Chinese New Year here last Thursday in Dublin Ireland with a big Chinese party in a chinese restaurant. The Chinese ambassador and his delegates celebrated with us. Fab night!! Enjoy!!
Hi I had a nosey at your profile to see what guys are checking out. Can I say 1st, you are a beautiful girl but your profile is a bit too long. No disrespect to guys but they dont wana read an essay. Mine is too long too though its only a few lines; its a bit like an interview, just give a few lines about you and let THEM do the work getting to know you. They dont need to know it all before they contact you, we're ALWAYS hearing about how guys like a bit of mystery, right?? Just saying..........
Rain I can relate. My daughter and I are estranged a long time now and she has isolated herself from most of the family. Although my grandson is only a few months old, she wont allow either Grandmother to visit and wont visit us either. We both got an invite for his Christening, though the other Gran especially was treated disgracefully at the reception and left early. This is heart breaking and no one can do anything. I wanted to do something for him so he would know I had some interest, some input in his life, however small so he would know, in time, that his gran never stopped thinking about him from the off. I set up a Savings account for him and bought Investment Prize bonds for him that will mature when he turns 18. I felt so much better having done this as I feel I have invested, in some small way, in his life. It may not be contact, but its something personal from me to him. Everyone said 'just wait til she has a child, she will turn around and realise she needs you', if anything its worse now. I dont hold out hope for change but I feel the better for having done something which I myself can control.
Dya know, I did just that last year. I had a 'permanent pensionable secure' job which I did for many years THEN early last year I thought 'do I really want to do this up til retirement'? I realised I wanted to reinvent sooooo I handed in my notice and left in November. Took a chance, everyone said I was mental.............Best thing I EVER did!
I set myself up as a Teacher online and started teaching online in February. I also signed myself up in college to study Holocaust Education which I start on Monday. I will eventually Teach this subject too.
I didnt realise back a year ago that I had been in Banking so long that I had become institutionalised............I feel so liberated and alive now.
Sometimes ya just gotta Eat the Peach and look beyond the ties that bind.
I'm off them since late January and, to be honest, havent looked back. Vaping E-cigs was my saving grace. Looking back I dont know how I afforded cigarettes
