That's great.

My very best wishes for your future

RE: Led Zeppelin.

Yeah, Led Zep


Defintely ,a great band.

RE: Smart in life, loser in love?

I'd say, don't expect anything in particular. Take it as it (he) comes. Let it develop or do not, go with the flow (I don't like this expression, but it suits best)

Good Luck

RE: just had a surreal situation....

from my point of view it depends how far one is seperated mentally from the former better half.

If it still hurts, you're probably still on the way (I know it takes some time), if it doesn't, welcome to the proofed single area.

RE: Near death experiences...

Hi Frances,

what you describe is similar to what many people experience.
Elisabeth Kuebler-Ross - she's a swiss lady - did some basic research on this topic while working in USA. You might get some further information from her publications.

RE: The one!!

I hear ya, Polar.

Why is it supposed not to fit.
I remember a line from a song: 'Love doesn't come easy'

I feel it needs some courage to go on to the journey of Love/Sympathy and it is more easy to deny any chances.

RE: Any hot tips for interviews??

Try to practise the interview with a good friend in a kind of roleplay. I felt it strange in the beginning but after the first minute it goes like a real interview.

Be aware of your body language regarding the interview situation. There are books about that.


Good Luck

RE: Do men listen?

Men are good listeners, or at least better listeners than women.
If God had talked to Adam not to touch or being attracted by the apple he certainly would not and mankind would still be living in paradise. But he talked to Eve ....

RE: i know im terrible!!

Thanks for posting this. I also think you simply don't know how far or deep you are atttracted to one person, finally.
Only experience from real life shows.

RE: Do opposites attract..

Yes, I think a kind of tension is helpful for a relationship.

Despite, also very helpful is the same understanding of honesty and respect.

Hiya Opti

How much 'right' needs to have Mrs./Mr. Right?

Hi Lorraine,

I guess this is somewhat a tricky issue. I certainly don’t think anyone would better be looking for Mrs./Mr. Wrong.
But I realized a switch in my perception of finding a partner. For the most time I was looking for the ‘perfect match’ (at least what I thought it would be). Sure, this doesn’t prevent from disappointments or leading the relationship down the tubes.
I now think it’s more prospective to find a partner while both have less expectations – means is a less definite Mrs./Mr. Right -, is ready to give a relationship just a start and is willing to give space for development. Of course there has to be the special click experience before.
JMHO

How much 'right' needs to have Mrs./Mr. Right?

This comes out of a yesterdays discussion. Everyone has preferences. So do I.
But on the other hand I realized that my best friends (only two) I wouldn't have found if I only would have checked whether they were a good match. What makes them special and valuable wasn't apparent. I needed to get to know them. The same with girl friends. I must get a click experience but I wouldn't be able to say why or from what this comes.

How firm are you with your citerias. Would you allow a period of experience, or do you sort out at an early stage ?

Would you be open for an imperfect Mrs./Mr. Right?

RE: Who here believes in love at first sight / Destiny

I belive in love at first sight I experienced it twice.

About destiny ? Don't know. My feeling is more that there is always the choice. I mean there is always the decision to let it happen or not.

RE: Body Language???

You simply cannot 'not communicate'. If not verbaly than with your way of acting, looking, walking, standing, ... at least (body language).
What are you actually looking for? Sorry, don't get you question here.

RE: what are your pet hates when on a date with a man/woman?????

coming late on a date, - or talking without listening to what the other said

RE: Happy Birthday p_seg!!!!

Happy Birthday Paul,


All the Best for your Future.

RE: CS I love you......

CS is like smoking.
Once you start it, you hardly can stop it

But CS is interesting and worthwhile, yet. I learned a lot from the posters. Thank you - just to say.

RE: Happy Birthday, Riyablossom !!

Hi Riya - Happy Birthday

I'm sending you my very best wishes

RE: The 24 Interludes of Life/ Author Unknown

Wow, big food for thought.

Thanks for sharing.

RE: Reason We're Put on This Earth....

yes, that's also true. Do what you like to do and (at least: try to) enjoy yourself.

RE: Reason We're Put on This Earth....

Thanks for putting up this question.
So far, I see it the same way as Kansan does. Quite simple. We probably are here for the very moment. I also think we should learn and develop ourselves. So this can be an ever ongoing story.

RE: Laura225!!! Happpppy ________

I'm wishing you a Happy and Funny Birtday from the other side of the pond.

Unfortunately, only know you from traces of your humour I came across here.
I also wish you the Best of Luck.

RE: Dating vs getting to know someone first?

I think in real life I also wouldn't jump into a date just from the very first second.

Let's say I would see and meet her - accidently - in a queue and have small talk. I might see her again or not. Let's say I'd see her again on work or anywhere else: I try to gain information - how she acts in whatever she does. I bet she would do the same. When I am attracted by her I will ask her for a date, then.
So, all we do in online dating is to gain information to possibly not getting disappointed. It's the same as in real life, isn't it?

RE: First date rules

RE: First Date Winner

Hey Laura, this is brilliant.

I accidently came across your thread. Thanks for sharing. This made my day.
The story is feeling so real as the times are getting cold again,

RE: Character Count

I'd prefer it KISS:

Keep

It

Short (&)

Simple

RE: He is 43 (but looks 30) I am 26. Will there be a happy end in our relationship?

Like most of the other posters I see it the same way.
Age is a number - take it slowly - appreciate any development - lower age doesn't make a relationship easier - ..... and so on.
I'd say there is only one real obstacle. If you are looking kinda subconsciously for an older man (a father role model) you may rethink about it.
I wish you the Best of Luck
