Oh Portiea why did you let him go....you must know how hard it is to find the 'chemistry' and almost impossible to find the chemistry along with romance....Do you regret it now or are you happy to just treasure the memory...hi by the way
In my experience I was always trying to change to keep my ex happy but he never was..now he has gone Im back to my old self or so Ive been told many times....and I am glad to be back and sooooooo much happier I may be a bit hot to handle for some guys but I dont intend to change...its me take it or leave it
I work with a very pretty young girl who seems to have permanently bad breath...other work colleagues discuss it between themselves but I would hate to tell her and hurt her feelings so I just step back a little and she talks louder
Closer to home I love Glasgow and Dublin...Glasgow has amazing shopping for the ladies and sits on the doorstep of Loch Lomond and both cities have fabulous architecture and fun, goodhearted people.....
I understand you are only looking out for their best interest (newbies), but, is it possible to respond to all new posters, just to make people feel comfortable, even when there isn't a flow in conversation? I mostly respond to posts that interest me, and don't really mind when mine aren't responded to, as long as i have made a point. I think we do a lot, when we welcome newbies, on their 'introduction' threads. It is up to them, from there on, to make themselves interesting and interested. We can't follow them around till they give a heads up. That would be baby sitting.[/q
A quick wave would be nice....God knows theres lots of hugs n kisses and stuff going around all the time anyway....
you are missing my point completely...maybe Im just no good at explaining....its not about being lonely and having no friends and not getting instant responses oh God I think I should just give up ....
i completely agree with you...I think that a lot of new people who dip their toe in the water of the forums as it were and try and join in can be in a vulnerable and often fragile state due to recent breakups or whatever...and although Im not saying anyone purposely tries to ignore them I feel that when the newby who is already selfing nervous, is overlooked by regular posters then the place quickly becomes intimidating for them and they leave...which Im sure makes CS a duller place..thats all Im trying to say and some people are taking it personally..its not a personal attack on anyone just my observations.
I couldnt give two hoots if theres a clique or not what gets to me is the total denial of it especially when so many people seem to have experienced it
Doesnt the fact that its being denied and laughed off confirm its existance. I have been on other dating sites before and have never experienced anything like it before. I will say no more on the matter as I agree it is becoming a bit tired....
Morganlee Im not having problems on here all I was doing was stating my observations on how I felt some new people had been overlooked..thats all and I am not new I have been on this site for ages now
What Im saying is that on the night this was previously discussed...and I dont want to go into it all again.....a lot of newbys jumped in and agreed that a lot of people were overlooked when trying to join in...some nice people, regular posters included, welcomed them but since then as far as I can see nothing has changed..these people have stopped posting...I would also like to say I had some very negative comments from a couple of the women for saying I thought 'in my opinion only' that a clique existed..in fact one woman accused me of being 'doomed' for agreeing with such a thing and another said the newbys were being ignored for not formally introducing themselves.... also spelling seemed to be an issue for some of the kingpins or queens as some call themselves....anyway I will leave it there cos if we start going around in circles again it will become very very boring and btw morganlee I wasnt having a go at you just voicing my opinion although I guess on here it will deffo be in the minority.
Im sure Im guilty of it too....sometimes Its my opinion....which I think Im entitled too and are you saying youve never came across inane drivel on these threads
Oh btw I have made a few good friends on here too....
I seem to remember being involved in this conversation before....yes I think there is a clique most definately.....and if you say there is youre doomed....but hey Im not on to talk inane drivel with a group of women anyway
Yeah I know its all pretty pathetic actually....sadly it does still go on a fair bit in the West of Scotland but its now well diluted by so many mixed marriages here...although I dont believe this to be the case in Northern Ireland unfortunately.... anyway on a positive note the sun is shining and the garden and book beckons...have a good day!!
No I dont find it acceptable I find it very sad indeed....I have no experience of this but when I started seeing my ex in the mid seventies in Glasgow we had the problem of being different religions...ie catholic/protestant....both families were not too happy about us getting together to say the least...however we married and had our family and we were both eventually accepted by each others families.... so these things can be overcome...and in my opinion it makes you a stronger and better person for the experience ....
