RE: What happened to you today..........

Today?

Breakfast. Whizz over to my folks to help with the decorating. Shopping, then paperwork, housework and catching up on e-mails. Not all that exciting thus far but finished off with a long conversation about when my fella's relocation is happening and getting a place together!
And now.... had to cry off a meet with a girlfriend, nothing but crap on the TV, so here I am!

RE: Ladies -- would you date a guy shorter than yourself?

I have dated guys the same height as me or a smidge taller, but I doubt I would date a fella shorter than me, no. That said, I am sure if I fell for the man, I could overlook something as insignificant as height.... minor issue!

Mind you, at 6ft 6 ins I have to keep asking my fella to sit down as I have developed a permanent crick in my neck...!!

RE: The most friendly ladies i have met on cs.

Ahhhh...... Cyprus!!

RE: What's holding you back ?

My fella and I were talking about this very subject earlier this evening. He gave me a male perspective (although it does depend on individual personality, of course). Some men lack the confidence for reasons you mention, choosing to avoid the possibility of rejection rather than try. I have, many times, had male friends confirm this.

My view is, based on that, one would be making assumptions about rejection, surely? The bottom line is that faint heart never won fair maiden, my friend. What's the worst that can happen? Nobody has ever actually died from embarrassment and chances are she may feel the same way?

Missing what might be a wonderful opportunity is one thing, but..... of your own volition?! We have so few chances in life and ALMOST never a second chance....

RE: Emoticons...

My favouties in no particular order....

RE: If she was half your age...

Errmmm.... nope!

RE: The most friendly ladies i have met on cs.

Bolton Wanderers, eh? If your grandfather came from Bolton, he's okay in my book!

If you find yourself with time to visit the south coast, Steve, look me up, yeah? You would be most welcome.


Have to dash, got some decorating to do... Ciao for now!

RE: Hi all....again

Hi ya, DK.... hope you're feeling better today, if only a little, yes?!

RE: Hi all....again

Hi ya, Steve!

RE: Wanting to chat to an interesting girl

Glad to hear you don't want to chat to an UNinteresting girl!!

But are you sure you're not being a little picky?!

RE: Are there any Gentlemen left out there? What percentage. Girls would you buy a book to help your man

I have no idea of the percentage but, yes, there are still some around. Though what someone deems a "gentleman" is subjective, n'est pas?

For those who have reached maturity and don't fit that bill (whatever that may be), I very much doubt a book would help...?!

RE: Devastated....Heartbroken...

I am so sorry to hear that its not working out as you'd clearly hoped, love.

You can't help the way you feel but, equally, you can't force it either. I agree with most of the posts here.

One thing that I would be mindful of, though, is his continuing to send you flowers, etc. Sounds like he is happy to keep stringing you along and that can only serve as a huge ego-boost for him, surely?!

I would be inclined to sever further contact. If you feel it hurts you to still see him here, perhaps take a break for a while and when you feel more healed, come back stronger and start afresh?

For you ---->

RE: Any fab fishes(Pisces) out there?

PMSL

Do You Prefer.......

Yes!!

RE: Do you look at people's profiles while you are signed out?

They won't know anyway....

RE: Choice

This is a site for adults. I am sure we all realise that there is nothing wrong with keeping one's options open.

Its all about intent, surely? If you are inter-acting with/dating several people there is nothing wrong with making that clear, is there?

Its when you are involved with several people and to any number of them you give them the understanding that they are the only one you are seeing and that a more meaningful relationship may be on the cards that you get into the realms of becoming a "Player"?! Its deceitful and intending to eventually cause hurt.

Honesty is the best policy!

RE: Why use a Dating Site as a Soapbox?

Why use a Dating Site as a Soapbox?

What.... a bit like we're doing now, ya mean?!

RE: Any fab fishes(Pisces) out there?

My ex is a Pisces. Wonderful?!! Errmm...

You can have him though, love!

RE: What kind of Cigarettes do you smoke.

If its not a Camberwell Carrot, its not worth smoking!

RE: What is your favorite ethnic food?

I love cooking and my specialities are French, Italian and Chinese. So, from your list.... Chinese!

I wouldn't mind trying Mongolian though.

RE: Do you look at people's profiles while you are signed out?

But as you are female and your profile stipulates you are looking for men, you're viewing wouldn't show up to other women anyway!

RE: Hi all....again

Hi ya! Wondered where you'd gone....

Sorry to hear it didn't work out. That means you have still yet to meet "THE ONE" but, rest assured.... you will!

Now you're back.... just have some fun?!

RE: How do you like your toilet paper to come off the roll...

Say Something.... No Need for Names!

Hmmmmm.... your posts are most enlightening! I can hand on heart say you never disappoint....

RE: Fish or Chicken

D'ya know, I just can't decide.... does that mean I'm inadequate?!

Do You Prefer.......

I know.... I just like to complicate things! Though, to be frank, there are some that I feel would have difficulty with it. Mind you, all credit to them for their attempts....?!

Do You Prefer.......

On which foot?!

RE: How do you like your toilet paper to come off the roll...

C...... I bow to your better judgement/wisdom!

Do You Prefer.......

One toe over any of the others...?

Well, it seems the order of the day. Let's get debating.....

Say Something.... No Need for Names!

There but for the grace of God......?

I am soooo glad I only have friends with brains!

C.... come back, pleeeeeeeze?!
