Great names. They really are funny. I could'nt stop laughing! Worse than some we have here in Malta. And I thought we were the funniest people in the EU
Poetry lovers are to be found everywhere just like the poor and the rich, the sick and the healthy, and what's more, they live side by side, making it impossible to pick either category out.
Besides, a lack of love of poetry is a lack of appreciation of the finer arts like ignorance of fine paintings......no thing to be proud of.
I agree though that less and less people are appreciating the finer things in life! That's why we men of great charm are no longer in such high demand LOL
I wish I could please you anyway you want, but a poet is not a painter, or a dancer. So a painter might paint you a picture, or a dancer perform some tarantella for you, but even with all the goodwill that a man has to please his lady, not all of us have all the combined talents. So I guess should we ever meet, I will bring you flowers. I hope you will give me a big smile in return.
I could agree with you Smoky on just about everything, but I still think that I, to talk about myself, could fall in love with somebody over the net. the difference to talking over the phone is that on this site, most people have photographs. And there are some terribly attractive females here. we also comunicate by mail. We see each others' postings on the forums, and all these things give a lot of feedback about the person we could interest ourselves in. They help build the profile which is not visible. So yes I can still say that unless the person has a horrible character and a large physical handicap which is not so obvious in the profile, in the picture, in the contributions and in the private e-mails, then yes I could really fall head over heels for a person who embodies physically my dreams for my perfect woman. I think this is the first step towards real love.
Hey, aren't we all missing something here? Why do WE have to go? How about asking out new found love to join us in our own country? I cannot imagine a man with a 250 acre ranch giving up all that to go and live in a one bedroom flat in Malta!
As I can't imagine a man going to the house of a woman who has just been abandoned by her husband, where she has to live with her children, mother and grandmother.
What's wrong if the other partner reallocated?
I hope that if I ever fell in love with someone like that, I would not have to leave whatever I have behind me to start life in another country. There is a reason for saying this too. In my country, I know what I have, a house or two, etc. and what I can afford to give to my loved one. In another country I would not know what I can afford to give. This does not mean that we would not visit her country as often as possible. I just hope that she would not object to my suggestion though.
I see all of Europe now on an equal footing. There are of course the language problems. Nobody could understand a word of English when I visited the Czech Republic, or Bulgaria. Just imagine trying to work there.
Im glad you'd love to find a poem written on your card, but the poetry I was referring to is the one that you narrate to your woman. The one that you give life and body to by saying it loud in the right tome and with the right expression.
As to what someone else said about preferring going to the restaurant, it is not said that one has to replace the other. Maybe a quiet restayrant is the ideal place to say the poem to the APPRECIATING partner.
Poetry, my friend, is like music. If you are educated enough to appreciate it, it makes a lot of sense. Otherwise like music which you cannot decipher, it sounds like rubbish.
So poets have to choose their listeners to make a success with their verses.
Well said Smoky. I could'nt have put it better myself. I have all the period records on 45RPM I also have a Wurlitzer jukebox in perfect working condition for when I want to dance to uninterrupted music. I still have to learn how to dance however. Any smart teachers (female of course)???
Hey everybody, Before we lose more time on the useless trivialities of what music to play, why don't we start sending picky one a list of the people we would like to invite. It is useless having all the music in the world without anybody attending, and the truth is that none of you girls have invited me yet. Do you want Me to invite you? Remember this is a virtual party, so it works in reverse where the girls invite the boys. Or is it ?????? The promoter is a woman, so I take it that we have all been invited by a woman????????????????
That does'nt happen very often, especially when people come from different countries. Net encounters are one thing, though most are very interesting. Meeting in person is another thing altogether. The reaction, the touch the expression on the face, the hug !
I confess that I believe in love at first sight. For me it is when your eyes suddenly fall on someone, a woman in my case, who impersonates in the flesh and in that reality standing right in front of you, all you ever wished for or could have ever asked for....When your heart misses a few beats, and you are frozen stiff, that you could not even reach out to grab her!. When your mind boggles, and when you doubt whether you are awake or dreaming!
I could say that sometimes even by looking at a photo I could get the same sensation, knowing that behind the photo exists the real person.
Of course if this feeling is reciprocated or not, is a different matter. According to Sod's law, in 99.9% of the cases it is not. That is why so many people don't believe in this love at first sight, because it is one sided.
The worst thing that could happen to you is that it happens when you are happily married to another person. But you are not to blame. You did not ask for it to happen. I am still suffering from such withdrawal symptoms that happened years ago.
What these people are asking you if you dance the Can Can like they do at Moulin Rouge. You must be prepared for a few surprises if you stick around these forums!
Ok that's a hard question to answer Sunshine, but I will try to give you my views about it. If after finding the right person, one feels that one should continue chatting with singles.....because this IS a singles site, then maybe it is proof that the right person was not the right one at all! It is not an attempt at depriving a person of his/her freedom to join the discussion/ exchange groups, it is just that it would be kind of superficial to join in a group which has primarily the function of bringing singles together. There are many other sites I suppose, that one can join that may be more adequate for such philosophical traits and opinions. If lastly the interest in what is being said is purely academic, like when one is writing a thesis for a diploma course, then maybe why not continue.
RE: What´s your theme song?
Do you really love rain that much? It brings me down. I love sunshine!
