RE: Right now its really windy with rain,.............

Even more so as you watch the raindrops hit the glass panes of your windows and watch them slowly trickle down... yes, rain has its relaxing effect on us who can be in need of some downtime with momentary peace and quiet . Sure... even better if you can cuddle up with someone dear to you and enjoy it together...

RE: Women....men take heed.

Ian.... across all ethnicities.... there are the keepers and those you are better off leaving alone right from the very start.... Unfortunate with your bad experiences but granting that you were at your best behaviour , it also greatly depends on the kind of Filipina women you came across. What I'm referring to is not only their individual nature but ALSO their family background, upbringing, and education.... which really contriubutes to the kind of woman right infront of you whom you are dealing with. Whether Asian, Caucasian or other.... there are those out there who are rough around the edges, those who are more daring and think they can get by through honey talking and being more explicit, and whatever else that wont get you anywhere worth getting into... in the long run, that is.

RE: Women....men take heed.

SO best to heed your own words,then, Ian.... But you and I know temper... bad or even... is not bound by ethnicity, gender, nor geography....

RE: Women....men take heed.

And please.... dont attribute solely to women ... the art of wanton spending.... because men also have their spending passions too.... And just like men.... not ALL women are irresponsible with money.... Just like some men..... there are women out there who have learned to be responsible with their finances and have mentally matured according to the number of their age.

RE: Women....men take heed.

What an insightful peace of wisdom from a man..... distinguished and accomplished at that.....

Very funny but the things he pointed out were quite very true as well in real life which makes it all the more amusing to read.... Couldn't stop laughing and... at the same time... admiring the humor and wit in him...

RE: When was the last time you got laid?..............

When "Freehand" said "Good things come to those who wait, no time limits" ..... No it is not necessarily easy for her or anyone to say so just because they have youth on their side..... because regardless of age.... it IS worth waiting for ..... when you appreciate quality over quantity..... But when one just wants to settle for the quick fix to scratch the itch, then it can not come soon enough.

RE: Age aint nothing but a number....

It's not so much as preferring older men but more about the perceived REAL underlying motives behind it that one can be judged by people around you..... the old symbiotic relationship of users and those willing to be used.

RE: Just doesn’t cut the mustard

What adds to the difficulty of translating is if, like in the case/s that you mentioned, we are talking about slang phrases.... sayings or sentences that are not to be literally interpreted bec they have a deeper ogher meaning as understood by fhe locals.

Only way to find out and learn the accurate equivalent of the phrase is to either ask a local... or.... watch tv and learn if you are lucky that they show tv programs in its original english and just display the subtitle in the local language.... you miht be surprised how much slang phrases you will learn that way without even asking anybody... I learned that way...
