RE: Crazy Spiders

Aaaagghhh! Spydafobia! Watched it thru fingers, with eyes closed. Quite clever though.

RE: Just normal, what happened to normal people?

Quite right Namaron. And who needs the hassle? ...get a pet instead.

- Greg. I don't think age has anything to do with it. Some people like going out and others are hombies, irrespective of what age they are.

- Most women are still looking for the qualities you mention. But these women would probably not be looking for a prospective partner in a bar as you're more likely to meet someone out to have a good time. And if the homebies don't go out, how do you meet them?

- Don't give up yet. It's just a matter of knowing where to meet the type of person you want.

RE: Charles Manson

Another sick loony.

RE: Wish the Whom ever is in charge would get a move o

I haven't seen anything on TV or in the papers about the preparations going on in SA for the World Cup, although in the UK there's obviously excitement and a build-up to the games. There are lots of St George's Cross flags around. I’m not a footie fan but I do watch the World Cup and I’m looking forward to it. Are the South Africans excited to be hosting the games?

A couple of months ago in Spain, there was a radio programme where a South African guy (I don't remember his name) was urging the teams to bring out their own armed security guards because he said it was very dangerous and the teams were likely to be attacked (I find that hard to believe). He seemed to be of the ‘shoot first and ask questions later’ brigade a la John Wayne. In the end, he made himself sound like a right supremacist. I think I would have been more frightened of coming face to face with him.

Have fun at the games!

RE: sayin goodbye..in my own way

Good Luck! Be happy!

RE: I am a lonely man Looking a Lovebird for Casual Re

Looking for a casual relationship in Saudi???

Don't they stone women to death for this?

RE: hi

I'll say one thing Handsomehunk, you sure gotta sense of humour. And I can see you're also very modest.

Mr Anonymous, how about putting a picture up and letting the women be the judges? If you're looking for serious and genuine people, you'll have to do better than this.

RE: out-there?!!

What's SWF???

RE: I am very thankful...

Hi Brad

Welcome to BlogLand.
You're quite right about counting your blessings. I can imagine where you live in Australia is really beautiful, as is the Mediterranean coast in Spain where I live.

I moved to Spain from London a few years ago and used to complain about the British weather, like everyone else. I now work in England so travel regularly between the two countries. To be honest, after the excessive Spanish summer heat and the freezing winters with no heating, it's like coming back to an oasis and now I'm thrilled when it rains or is cool. I have grown to love the unpredictable British weather and you won't catch me complaining anymore. It really doesn't bother me now.

The UK is not as extreme as Finland where they have long periods of light and darkness, but people can suffer from SAD in any country which experiences winter.

I'm currently in the UK and as a matter of interest, we have had nearly a week of sunshine and high temperatures and, according to the weather reports, it's been hotter than some Med countries. Do I sound like a true Brit? You bet!!!

Cheers!!!

RE: He found his rib in me

That's wonderful news! Wishing you a funtastic time with your new friend. This will obviously give fresh hope to those who are becoming disillusioned with website dating.

RE: WOULD YOU DATE OUTSIDE YOUR RACE

I wouldn't mind dating a Na'vi from the film Avatar. That would be great!! Tall, blue and handsome...

RE: how tuff to get nice lady

Yep! And even tuffer to get nice man...

RE: Another Sleepless NIght...

Have you tried magic mushrooms? I've been told you'll be dreaming plenty with those.

RE: IM,why not

The problem with IM, Messenger, etc is that before you've had time to respond to a question/comment, another question/comment comes through and in the end, the conversation becomes disjointed and distorted. That's why I personally don't like it.

If you really want to talk and have a good discussion, there's always the phone, if it's impossible to have a face-to-face.

RE: decieving love

Hmmmmm. Probably because the men are bigger liars. As the saying goes: 'if you can't beat 'em, join 'em...'

RE: Does relationship with another person living in an

Hasn't worked for me (same country or different countries). It's very difficult to keep up indefinitely, unless you're into a part-time lover, can visit fairly regularly, or one of you will relocate.

Difficult especially with busy, conflicting schedules and other commitments.

I agree that it needs a lot of commitment + money.

RE: Has anyone found their matches on the site?

I’m sure they have...........in their dreams!!!

The overwhelming response could be a hint. However, I would think that if someone visits a dating site solely to find a match, they would stop once they had found someone? Hence, no/few responses from those who’ve been successful.

Paying sites sometimes list testimonials from 'success' stories, but who can tell? If you're paying, it's in their interest to entice you.

Seriously though, I introduced a couple of friends to this site last September. The lady met someone soon after and recently visited him in his country. Things are still going very well. The guy deleted his profile a few months later because he said it was just a joke.

The other success, although not dating: a friend’s daughter in the UK met an Australian on a common interest site about a year ago. They have exchanged visits since then, speak almost daily and appear to be madly in love with each other. The guy wants her to relocate to Oz.

Hope springs eternal.

RE: Happily Unmarried

At last!!! The only happy person on CS, with only a maid dilemma.

But it's quite easy. What about a different maid, from a different country, for each day of the week/month/year. By the time the year is over, you may have found the perfect maid!

And JN, I'd like to take a wild guess as well. CERTAINLY you have NEVER dated men, have you? Then you WOULD DEFINITELY KNOW better.

Have fun!

The Prodigal Daughter Returns…

Mr English: Thanks very much. This blog business has been doing my nut in, but I’ve been devouring blog guidelines (along with the chocs and vodka) and, by Jove, I think I’ve cracked it!

Shame about your being so far away, but if you're ever in my neck of the woods... I’m definitely up for salsa.

Feeling better already!

RE: The Yoga Quest for Inner Peace

First (and last) time I went to a Yoga class was over 20 years ago. I went with a group of girlfriends and the tutor hummmmmmmed so much and made such strange sounds that we spent the hour in fits of giggles.

Then he made us lie down on the floor and I fell asleep, only waking myself up when I started snoring. That was embarrassing to wake up with 20 pairs of eyes on you.

RE: fact

Great country Turkey, and it has some spectacular sights. Will be interesting to see this dig.

RE: The Yoga Quest for Inner Peace

Dannii: What is your interpretation of yoga?

I’m not a fan. These are just some explanations I've seen on the internet:

“Yoga is a path that leads up to the state of supreme blessedness and peace”.

“The ultimate aim of practicing Yoga is to create a balance between the body and the mind and to attain self-enlightenment”.

“Yoga is the science that teaches us the method of uniting the individual soul with the Supreme Soul, of merging the individual will in the Cosmic Will”.

Have I misunderstood your comment?

RE: Why dont you look at me?

Maybe she's blind.

RE: Mary's Faults

If this is your own composition, it's beautifully written. Very expressive and very haunting. Reminiscent of ‘French Lieutenant’s Woman’. It’s nice to see a bit of culture on here once in a while.





But if it’s the story of your life..........Get Over It!

RE: WHY TRUST LOVE?

True love... Javed, very beautifully put. Thanks.

RE: any body there?

Nope. There ain't nobody here but us chickens!

RE: dating

Touché CHS.

RE: dating

There must be one or two out there somewhere!

RE: SERVICE

Rapowal
I'm beginning to look forward to your blogs in a peverted sort of way because they make me laugh, if nothing else. And I think I'm even beginning to understand you a bit (dangerous). Maybe I was rather harsh with you the first time.

But this time, I'm totally and utterly

Online or not online...

Nothing would surprise me!
