Lisajane - I loved that story........very funny without being rude - it reminds me of a joke I'll tell you when we meet! ;)

RE: Are we too set in our ways?

I got divorced in 1988 after ten years of marriage and remarried the same year. I got divorced again in 1990. I lived on my own until I got married again in 2004. It didn't last three years!

I guess we DO get selfish after many years as mainly single men, we DO need our own space and being able to find things, but I'm happy to turn my life through up to 90 degrees for a woman I love - 180 degrees is a big 'No! No!'

I guess you respect other people, Jacko, but demand that people also respect you and your own needs.......... you love your bike and I don't imagine you'd give it up for a little phut phut 50 cc moped woman, would you? lol

RE: any single guys out there

Your profile is straightforward and 'nice' (I like the wanting to play lawn tennis and learn latin dancing).

I know being 'separated' is quite normal in Malta as divorce is sometimes almost impossible, but I would find it uncomfortable dating a married woman.

It brings up the question 'Should a married woman be dating?'......obviously if one's marriage is as dead as a dodo and one is separated and unable to divorce it's one thing - but one could also be separated when a marriage is salvagable and I couldn't live with having courted a married woman when her marriage could be saved.

I am just writing what I think; it doesn't mean that I either find you are attractive or have the cheek to believe you might find me attractive either....... I am just saying that divorce is sad, but living in a country that doesn't recognise divorce is maybe even worse (for individuals).

I have a friend who has been trying to have his marriage annuled for over six years. He is a decent man. I feel that once his marriage is eventually annuled that both he and his about to be ex wife can start a new life while both being responsible parents to their children.

RE: any single guys out there

hey - I got married three times.......you can't say I didn't try!

Caring and loving? (some people are maybe too caring and too loving!)....... however getting divorced three times makes me a failure - or, if the glass is only half empty then I'm learning from mistakes!

I know I come across a little as being cynical and uncaring........ most people can't see through that 'front'

Maybe Maltese women DO want a man with a nice car and a nice body and a nice job........ some women do want a man to look after them while they get all nice and plump like an Italian pasta mama once they have trapped their man - that's no different to some women all over the world.

Also, many men will court a woman and be wonderful and charming and then treat them badly once they are 'trapped'.

A relationship should be symbiotic - where the union is greater than the sum of the two parts....... BOTH parties in a relationship should be better off and their lives enriched in many ways from the love they share for each other.

True love is always good and never bad - to claim you have loved somebody and then wish or do them harm denigrates the word 'love'.

RE: whats the 10 most important things that you've ever learnt about life ?

1. Don't let gillyloves annoy you (it's ok, I'm just joking!)

2. Think of at least six good things that happened to you today before you go to sleep.

3. Tomorrow never comes, so really do what makes you feel good about yourself today.

4. Other people can't possibly like you if you dislike yourself.

5. Do your best to smile without being insincere.

6. Don't say 'Have a good day!' unless you really mean it.

7. Inflation sucks and so do some people!

8. Do not worry about tomorrow unless you have more than enough for today.

9. However bad things may seem they always get better.

10. However good things seem, nothing lasts so live a good life if you can, while you can.

RE: what is happiness ?

Happiness is waking up next to the one you love and saying 'Good morning sunshine!' (works great if you are single and have a strategically placed mirror!)

RE: not ready for relationship

dang! (and I had a cunning hugging plan just for you!)

RE: Your Private Club ....

Thank you (I modelled 'em on me mum and dad........dad dresses up as a cocktail waitress now and again, and my mother - ok, let's not discuss my mother!)

Don't tell me you went to St Edwards - did you?

typographical errors.........

They are called 'typos' for short.

Do you get embarrassed when you type a thread, post it and then see you've made silly spellink mistakes?

RE: I'm new here

We West-Europeans have very sad lifestyles.......we eat a lot, we drink a lot, we avoid work whenever possible and we love our leaders because we can blame them when things go wrong, elect somebody else and then blame them too!

In the UK we love East Europeans because they are dynamic and hard-working and most of the women are cute ........

RE: I'm new here

Oh no..the tomatoes are back!

RE: I'm new here

Is there a EU regualtion for recycling belly botton fluff? If not, why not?

RE: who inspires you? do you have a role model?

My fathers!

1.) God (Our Father Who Art in Heaven)

2.) My dad - whose shadow I lived in for most of my life (my fault not his).....he is a wonderful man, and very genuine, and quite selfless and very generous and a wonderful husband of 62 years plus to my mother and a great dad and was a decent man in business (very hard with some of the corrupt people he had to deal with) and a man with an irrestible twinkle in his eye:

(scene: decades ago when I was a young single man on leave from the Army and my parents had thrown a cocktail party)

JHC: Robert, there are plenty of young ladies here. Why aren't you talking to any of them?

Me: Daddy - you won't let me get a word in edgeways!

At 88 and a half he still has way more charm than I'll ever have!

~sniff~

RE: Do Europeans

I remember a young man bragging in University on the number of different girlfriends he'd had.........it was something like 18.....and the kid was only 20 years old.

I said 'That totally beats me........I've only been with nine....nine different nationalities.'

RE: If you fell in love with someone, how do you show him/her??

I think it's easier with body language than with mere words......

RE: Hey guys.....listen to this

Dammit - does that mean I have to gly out BEFORE 1st October to stand a chance?



(P.S. - I hope you two have a wonderful time together! )

RE: Just another poem

bajanblue - excellent poem, but I have to admit I found Pearl's poem very sweet in it's naive yearning innocence........

Memories flickered across kis ken,
The warmth and heat and passion long since past.
He sighed -
Opened up the shutters.....
Greeted the sunrise glow
And breathed in fresh succour to his weary soul.

I'm another Robert by the way

RE: Just another poem

Yummy sentiments - did you write it? (if so, very well done as English isn't your first language)

RE: not ready for relationship

Wazzup kiddo? Need a hug?

RE: Worst way to break up? one for the men to answer

The best way to break up is to say it with flowers.... I'm not 100% sure of this but I think a bunch of lilies means: 'Buh bye - I wish you were dead!' (joking - I would never do that....like I'd spend good money on poxy flowers?)

I guess there is no easy way, and ladies hate being the dumpee and prefer to be the dumper......... if you don't want her calling round to your place all the time I guess the best way is to engineer it so that she thinks she dumped you -then you can pretend to be sad and she'll be happy!

Probably vice versa works as well....

RE: PLEASE everyone

Hi, Uli - how're you doing?

RE: so any plans for the weekend?

I fancy going over to the 'Cornucopia' tonight for a huge bbq they have on a friday night by the pool, with a band playing really old stuff from the 60's etc......it might be a laugh - so, who's coming?

RE: I'm leaving you all tomorrow!

Flower - you read her post..you've got to be nice to me while she's away!

RE: CS GET-TOGETHER in Dublin 19th-22nd of October

Pearl - some of the places are as cheap as £16 or £18 for the Friday and Saturday night and as low as £13 for Sunday night.......... it just depends on where we can all feel comfortable and what we can afford........... sleeping on the pool table is not sensible as you tend to wake up with a stiff back!
