RE: A Fine Predicament

Does your dad like music?

If so, a cd or ticket to a concert would be great. Elderly people also often like anything related to the family, so a family dinner, an outing with the whole family including grandchildren, or perhaps great grandchildren given your dad's age, a framed photo of the family.....

Elderly people don't see all their family often enough, so a get together if possible would bring joy I'm sure.

RE: The Injustice Of Prejudice

Hi. I don't think you have a "bone to pick with her husband" as you say. He may have simply been acting on the wishes of his wife if, as I said previously, she didn't want anybody to know she was dying.

Whatever, she appeared in good spirits the last time you saw her so be thankful for that, and despite your reasons for disliking her, you went to see her, which I'm sure she would have been thankful for along with your friend, her husband. wave

RE: The Injustice Of Prejudice

If she had been suffering from cancer and knew her days were numbered, which is likely, maybe she just didn't want to tell people that. dunno

I'm sure her husband knew though.

She may have been a much nicer person than you thought.

RE: The last of my trip...

Some wonderful pics Abigail. You've obviously had a great time. What was the highlight of your travels?

RE: why why

Why should they delete their profile? I go for months, recently over a year, without logging in. They may be ill, in a new relationship, or simply too busy. Not everyone is here 24/7!

RE: a bit scary

Loads of "weirdos" and yes I agree the same can be said in real life. However, online weirdos take much longer to identify as such in many cases, so be careful. It's much easier to lie behind a computer screen.

If you arrange a date, meet in a public place and tell a friend or family member exactly where you are going.

RE: do you think a 37 yo can count as AN OLD MAID ?

Well i would have said it's a cultural thing, but apparently the age for marriage has risen considerably in your country. Average age for women is now around 29 years for women so maybe you are a little over the hill! Only joking! laugh wave

RE: what women want?

What women want is not generic, it depends on the woman, and I doubt that it is really any different for men. I've had my kids and certainly would not welcome any more. I've had a husband for many years and also never been out of work, so two more strikes off your list.

Love? Well I have that from family and friends. Do I want romantic love again? Perhaps, but not at any cost.

RE: Blondes? . . . Brunetts?, or an occasional, snappy

How do you know which colour is natural? Many women change their hair colour regularly and it makes no difference to their personality whatsoever.

RE: Tokyo 2020

I'm Englsh but have lived in Spain for 12 years so I was a little disappointed that Madrid was eliminated. Not surprised though, but there don't seem to be any honest explanations as to why certain choices have been made.

RE: someone answer this please~!

It's a sad fact of life that obesity is increasing at the same time the media is portraying unattainable body images of the "ideal" woman which a lot of men, and some women, particularly young women, buy into.

I don't know what the answer is. I do know that I try to work hard at not gaining weight because I don't feel good about myself if I struggle to zip up my jeans! And as a middle-aged woman I don't want to become type 2 diabetic which is also increasing in the Western world.

If a man does not fancy you because of your weight you have to accept it. He may not carry too much weight but have smelly armpits or arthritic fingers which you may find equally unappealing, so don't take it personally. handshake
