The Bombay: I can't believe you have never been called a turkey buzzard before. I would say that is an accomplishment on my part. You are from New York and I was raised in Southern Virginia, we do have a certain way of talking. Take care, turkey buzzard!
I do not think that if you really love the person. On the other hand, wedding rings can mean nothing. They can be taken off when a person wants people to think they are single. Or, worn right out in the open, and do not care what people say.
The ring can be a handcuff if the other person takes his off and you still love them.
I agree with you, Bodleing, it had become a handcuff. Not anymore. I have no ring on the left hand.
Phantom2, I believe some people are answering your original post instead of your latest update.
A month has past, you are talking to a kind women. You are not repeating the same mistake by finding someone who is not right for yoou. I think you are doing great.
Bad feelings take time to disappear. Also, the old girlfriend tries to blame you for getting her pregnant and it isn't true. You said so and did not engage with her further.
That is how you learn to trust again, you go through the stages of breaking up with someone. Finally, it starts getting better.
What is fair for the man, is fair for the women. I'd like 3 husbands. They would share everything including me, ha. They would also split the chores so I would not have to do anymore. They each would have to be a good cook, good maid, and of course be a good lover.
Having 3 would allow them some time off, I am generous.
drbombay, do you think we are not ready for that to happen? When it is over, you guys run for your live. One minute a guy is in love, things seem fine, then they take off to Mars. You guys are scary cats, ha. No drama allowed. It gives you indigestion, and freaks you out.
I will agree with you, once I had it with a guy. He was telling me something that I had told him to never say again. Fortunately for me, he was standing inside my apt, next to the front door. I simply opened the door and pushed him out and said never call me again, it's over. He didn't contact me either. I believe he was in shock right after I closed the door. It happened in a split second.
Maybe, just maybe, you are looking for the impossible and the Ms Wrong is really Ms Right. Got it? Sometimes the person we think is perfect is just right for us but we keep on going for the same type.
What if the person was right next to you and you never noticed because you had a certain imagine in your mind.
I had a feeling when I sat down next to a new guy in our group - I thought the seat was vacent, but it turned out to be another guys seat.
But they said, go ahead and sit right there. Then the guy I'm seeing now turned and we started talking and that was it.
Enough of the Aus lingo, I have no idea what you mean. Just spell out what you meant: what heavy stuff, lunatic mus??? That makes no sense. Stuff going on - what is that about? explain more clearer. What heavy stuff, lunatic mus? It is hard to wish someone the best when you don't understand what someone just wrote about the situation. Just sum it up, there is free speech here.
You can think of your ideal, but end up sitting next to someone who appeals to you. That is what you should look for, not your ideal. He isn't like anyone you have met before and you just hit it off. It just happened to me. He's older than I, but still very much with it. He also lives near me very close to me.
So what they say is true for me, you can meet someone accidentally at the right time and right place. My best girlfriend met her husband at the grocery store.
Tell them the truth, you won't be hanging with them anymore. Don't answer the phone, or open the door. They will move on. Good for you for moving on to a new direction. Besides, it would not be good for you to be around them any at all since you are getting off what they drink or take for drugs.
Wish you the best. I saw a girlfriend my age at the time, 17 get involved with drugs. She had it all, a great boyfriend, good mother. But she got started with smoking dope, then went right on from there. The last time I saw her she looked bad. I was not into all of that. But it opened up my mind not to go her way.
Here is an idea, report the person to CS moderators. The person can't hurt you unless he lives near you. You can also block the person.
Once straight, make a new profile. Don't let someone change what you doing, then they win, and you lose.. I wish you had let us know. Always do that, ok!
The Dobe I'm not going to say goodbye, because I want to see you work this through, then you will be the winner.
Please go to the International Forum for your bloody Aussie's since you have such a attitude. I hope you notice there are Auzzie's right here. I guess they like to mingle with with people all over the world beside just Auzz land.
You also put people hear on the offense with the comment above, give us a break. If this site was a place you liked, how would you feel is someone new just shot you down.
Help, I'm been wounded, get a doctor .......
The Dobe
Please will someone send me some flowers, and chocolate?
If you are looking for just Aussie's, go to your local area. But people here has found others all over, some even got married.
If you want to know some characters like most Aussie's are, join in the forums.
Things do not happen over night. Also, it's good to stay with a thread you created, so you can interact. You didn't come back until near the end to make comments. So how can you met people that way?
Hi Single, it's just a shock. We had a lunch with our group and it helped so much. Then we did get together on New Year's. So it will be soon, we will all have to get together again. Someone remembered her getting up one time and was dancing. It cracked me up. I love it when that feeling comes over you and you just do it regardless of others around. I think most people think, boy, I wish I was with that group.
A phone call before a first date is pretty important. You are learning about the guy and also trying to figure out how you will get along. A women is self conscious on what she is saying, and usually will just say anything that comes to mind, but she usually doesn't start with any dirty talk. So for the guy to say what he did, would be alarming. Women want to be treated with respect. I do not care if he was nervous. From what she was talking about, what he said had no business in being talked about plus it was pretty crude.
It makes you wonder if he's always that crude. What will the first date be like? He might try to go fast and you are just wanting to get to know him. When that happens, I know he really isn't interested in me, he just wants to get laid. Forget it.
Wow, that is progress. You got the wrinkles out and now will see him. Maybe he needed more time to think about it. Plus, you know he still wants to go out.
You have gotten it straight about where not to go.
I'm glad he told you he was disappointed about the canceled date.
Maybe it is good it happened. I think you understand each other more.
Venus, that was classic. It really made me laugh. Tonight, I was at a happy hour and had not had a drink at all. But I still managed to say 2 things that I regretted. Friends picked up on them at once. We did have a good laugh at my bloopers.
Men know what they want, and she did call. He decided not to go further. I do think he went to far, here it's a different story. We kid around and do know each others buttons. He pressed a button and it did not work. If he was wanted to go out, he would have tried again plus said, I'm sorry for what he said. I think it shows his character pretty well, and Kaybee, I still think you did the right thing. I would not second guess what you did. You reacted fine. Not many women would expect a guy to say that before a date, and most would not like it. If gives you a clue on what this guy is about.
I would work on removing him from your mind, he does not deserve any space in it. Only great guys who know how to treat a woman with respect belong there. Sure, as a relationship progresses, you both are more free to say naughty thing. But before a date, that's pretty crude if he doesn't know you. Again, be glad he did trip up!
How old were you, my son. Sounds like something that needs to be confessed to a priest. That I am not. But I can give you a few hail Mary's, tell you to scram, and be better.
Rider, you were so bad. But they did say not to touch the icing. Now what kid could be trusted in a room left alone with a iced cake? I'm glad they thought it was funny. I always thought that the things that guys did were very amusing. I could just see you with your pop gun.
Come on, just one thing. Being bad can have it's advantages. That girly boy never came to see us again, ha. I guess they might have thought I'd bet him up the next time.
Thank you Lovely, that was nice. It's funny to read you wrote share the person. We all belonged in a small group and would share ourselves, have dinner, laugh...We were in a large community and the head of our group wanted to start a small group to show how unique a person can be plus be with others. We each joined and grew to care for each other.
I actually think it was a blessing she is gone. She had 2 kidney transplants and had started to have a problem with the second one. But we were blessed to have the time we had with her.
She was very unique, she did not share her trials with all the group about trying to stay healthy. But a few of the group knew. We all went to the service and got to see her urn. It was beautiful. I think it helped her family to see our group since Colette had talked about us.
Here is my opinion, "Off With His Head". Then he will have something else to worry about
To be honest, I would have thought that, if he had said that to me - but like they say it in Alice in Wonderland. In the statement before this, I did mean his little head, oh, dear, did I write that?
But to get to the point, things can go down hill fast when talking before a date or be fine, you get excited, and things go good. I'd say, you did not over-react, in fact, you went with your gut feelings. You might have avoided a bad date. If he said that before the date, just what might he say to you during the date. Then there would be the dreaded good-night hug or kiss.
He didn't respond to your calling him back with an apology so I'd say that is another bad signal. He could have said he was sorry, so I'd forget about it. There are other fishes in the sea where that would treat you like you wanted to be treated.
I think most guys here know that isn't something to say before a date. Or if you don't agree with the Professor, maybe you would like to talk to my Doberman.

You are from New York and I was raised in Southern Virginia, we do have a certain way of talking.
Take care, turkey buzzard!
