Perhaps it was because yesterday, can't remember which thread of yours, you invited somebody to check out your profile, not once but twice. People were obviously curious!
I often look at both male and female profiles, not because I'm interested in them as a potential partner, but out of curiosity particularly after a little debating in the forums.
I usually work until 10.00 pm then sometimes go and have dinner or a drink with friends. If I log on at this time often there is nobody around so I usually move over to the International Forum which is always active but not as interesting for me.
Ah but that's life isn't it Sheila, all of us take what we have for granted until we lose it.
As an independent, working woman I don't NEED anybody to cook, clean or provide financial security for me, but it would be nice to share my life with somebody, as equal loving partners. This is an emotional need which I believe is normal and not at all threatening or suggesting a flaw in one's character.
Instinctively I would say yes. However, I have given second chances twice after being hurt enormously but things were never the same and didn't work out.
There are some things which, however much you forgive, cannot be forgotten.
For sheer wit, humour and intelligence and whose posts I always enjoy reading, even laugh out loud at times....Belushi, Alex, Tumpa (James), Gibsonish and Abra.
I decided to have a tattoo at the grand old rebellious age of 41. It is a small pink rose on my lower back and I love it.
I chose the lower back because apparently it is the only place on the body which doesn't really suffer age related gravity. I didn't fancy a tattoo changing location each year!
I too have an age preference on my profile AND a polite note thanking interest from much younger guys but no deal. It doesn't seem to stop twenty something young men from contacting me though.
As has been said, I think we are all pretty flexible and the age thing is really just a guideline.
As for the question, my forties have been the most life changing years for me, and I mean real radical changes, new career, different country, learning a new language etc etc, so age shouldn't be seen as a barrier.
I've met young people who have such boring outlooks on life and think that I'm brave but a little crazy!
Winston, you already know that I can't make a commitment so far in advance because of my work so I'm sorry I can't add my name, much as I would love to.
Brought up in the north of England and moved to the south when I was in my twenties. Due to my work since then, I have lived in Turkey, Poland, Portugal and now beautiful Spain where I intend to stay.
Exactly! You and Tikiguy should be joined in matrimonial bliss, you both have more in common with each other than with any of the female, or male CS members for that matter.
No, I did not say I was an athiest because I think I 'serve a higher purpose' whatsoever. Being an atheist does not mean I have no respect for believers so you have deeply offended me. I mentioned it because I didn't want the poster to think that I was criticising her on moral or religious grounds. In addition, I did not say it was 'unchristian like'. Read another of the same posters threads this evening about misinterpretation.
It's just that I have read so many silly threads this evening about tasting, licking etc purporting to come from someone who has often come into interesting, albeit controversial debates, insisting we stop and pray.
In most cases it's not misinterpretation at all but healthy disagreement with the opinions being expressed. This is something that some people cannot accept therefore they become sulky or feel hard done by.
