RE: The Dash: A tribute to a good man

RE: Is it okay to pretend....

Yeah :happybirthday: Claayer

RE: Why! Why, Why does some one come with direct false information?

absolutely I agree...it would be a matter of basic caution that a girl not say anything that will indicate her whereabouts... until she knows and is more confident with the person..... if she lied and totally elaborated though I would be a little suspect however.. JMV

RE: should parents force children into religion or let them choose for themselve ?

matters of spirituality are useless IMO if they don't come from from within... so No!!

RE: HELP!! I need some advice from both a male and a female point of view

Just having a profile doesn't make him guilty of anything... what I would do is check him out for a while... be sure.. maybe even set up a profile for flirting and see if he responds.. he may have had that profile from ages ago and may only be checking in every now and then out of curiosity.. be sure before u act.. that would be my advise

RE: Make-up or al-naturale

TBH I wear very little.... but occasionally I will wear a strong coloured lipstick for dramatic effect

RE: when is a man a real man ? a woman a real woman ? and a child a real child ? be honest !

A real man understands how much those who love him need him, and takes his responsibilities seriously... A real woman is loving, kind and faithful but strong when she needs to be (which is normally for the people she loves) a real child is allowed to be innocent, feel safe and secure and not have a care in the world JMO

RE: Why can't people use the spell checkers on their computers???!!!

Why are people so pedandic... quite frankly I don't care!!!!... plus please take into consideration that not everyone has English as their mother toungue...

RE: The important things in life :)

Its more here too... I'd say something if people didn't know the risks.. you would have to be living on another planet not to know the risks...

RE: The important things in life :)

And whats more with the 30 cans of beer they had probably planned of having a drinking party while the poor five year old was left running around.... some people are just pure tramps!!!!...

RE: I got nothing more to say to her..

forgive her to release the burden from your heart.. tell her what you are telling us... if she is not to be a continuous part of your life.. then accept that.. but to move on you have to forgive.... even if she doesn't deserve it

RE: What's your favorite flower?

I love spring flowers particularly.. tulips, bluebells, snowdrops, daffodils.. I also like sunflowers, and daisies..was never that fond of roses..

RE: Before Internet Dating.....

I would have probably found you adorable... the understated guy is very endearing... .. My lil bro is quiet... and they just seem to flock to him..(he's 23)... my Mum said it is because he is the 'strong silent type and that girls love that' (granted she is a lil biased)..

RE: My colleague brings on the lunch table something that I cannot stand

Good answer.. perhaps you could have your food seperately (if you don't wish to impose ur views and put her in a difficult situation) and then join for a cup of tea and a chat afterwards... bit lonely though... is the fact that other people something which simply disgusts you? or is it that in principle you disagree..

RE: WHO ARE THE BEST FILMMAKERS ? SHOULD AFRICAN PEOPLE BE BANNED FROM MAKING FILMS ?

Hiya Gilly... excellent post... You probably have already.. but when u get a chance, join an international film club..

I definitely think their is something in what you say... which is possibly politically motivated... the powers that be and the decision makers.. don't want us to see the viewpoint of these 'risk countries' because they don't want us to be able to see their point of view..

An I agree.. our line of thinking is based on what we are exposure..

And I agree.. styles and moods do differ and there is a basis for that.. and yet again I agree..studying these films and what they are about would give us a deeper insight into what makes these countries tick.. and also give us a wider appreciation (and knowledge of) Film as a media in general

RE: I need honest advice

Agreed.. sounds like a complete creep!!!... makes me sick to think how many people he may have slept with as well..

RE: I need honest advice

One mistake that guys frequently make is to be over-keen... its kinda freaky and comes accross as being insincere and desperate... just be urself.. at the end of the day the girl who is the object of your interest is just a person.. give urself some time to get to know that girl, and that girl time to know you...

Another mistake IMO that guys make is to give vacuous compliments... If I had a dime for every one liner email that said... 'hi, u have a nice smile' or 'hi i think you have beautiful eyes'... its just so predictable and insincere.. u get the impression (as a girl) that they just churn these comments out.. I know its hard for guys, and we don't always know what to say.. but just remember.. we are mere 'people' at the end of the day

Sincerity always works... for me anyway

Good luck !!!

RE: Has the art of courting become to commercial?

The whole thing has become ridiculous.... .. gone be the days where it was just boy likes girl, girl likes boy.. lets see what happens.. u nearly have to do a full blown interview these days... .... and we have all become so damn picky.. whether its due to our increasing insecurities or media society projections I don't know but Geez guys none of us are really THAT special or hot..

RE: Appearance vs Personality

RE: Appearance vs Personality

Yes it does work both ways.. but with women, (not all of course)most move on from that phase (trial and error I guess) do men?... I agree that you have to be attracted to the other person... but what that attractiveness is based on seems to differ.. for example... and I notice it all the time.. when I am dressed up and make an effort I get lots of attention... if I dress down, tie up my hair and wear no makeup etc.. it is less.. I have to say that annoys me.. it seems so shallow... like uv got these guys and they are pretending to be interested in you and what you have to say.. and the same guy could pass you on another day... .. perhaps its just a personal annoyance...... its just so damn obvious.. and makes me wonder, if I were plain, would I be just ignored all together..

RE: Do you believe Atlantis existed?

Must take the time to read up on it.. at the moment I am inclined to need something more in the way of proof... must defo check it out though... very interesting.. .well we know that very sophisticated ancient civilisations did exist (Mayans e.g.) so not impossible, lack of archealogical evidence doesn't necessarily make it less so.. normally though some (if even only minute) evidence endures... history has a way of leaving clues.. as if willing itself to endure

RE: Could you/would you.........

Yeah.. never say never (for me) but I strongly suspect that I would take a similar stance TBH

.. morning

RE: life afer death

The good ones.. are REALLY rare so if you do chose to... do ALOT of investigation first.. cause you can end up spending alot of money on them... I have been duped so many times .. have never found someone since that good... also I don't bother with them anymore.. since I have opened up to the spiritual side of me I don't feel the need to any more.. cause I have trust in whatever is destined for me.. even the trials are never meant to be anything more than you can cope with as a person.. and usually (i find anyway) we learn from them.. and undisclosed(and indeed) unexpected gems emerge

RE: Could you/would you.........

I agree its very much a situational thing.. depends on the level of feelings etc.. I wouldn't say never.. but I wouldn't just for the sake of it (would be pity based..not right).. having said that.. friendship.. definitely (if there were a basis for same)

RE: life afer death

I went to a Clairvoyant years ago who was SPOT on.. she was able to tell me very precise details of my past, my family.. future events to a tee... like e.g. she told me a man would get down on his knees and ask me to a ball... a friend (drunk) and out of the blue(and completely unprompted) got on his knees (jokingly) and asked me to the Business Ball in college... she told me I would be a Barrister (before I even contemplated it myself) and how I got to do that is a weird coincidence in itself.. my sisters pregnancy.. but perhaps the wierdest of all was that she told me and a flatmate(we went on the same day) to beware of a girl (with a very unusual name)... (shivers up the spine).. she told us her exact name!!... afterwards when comparing notes... I found out that she was saying lies and negative stuff behind mine and my other flatmates back..

I could go on about this.. but would take too long

RE: WHO ARE THE BEST FILMMAKERS ? SHOULD AFRICAN PEOPLE BE BANNED FROM MAKING FILMS ?

In loads of ways Gilly.. more funding, greater independance (don't have to pander to American audience... ) this has led to better writing, acting, cinematography... and overall a more organic and honest product....

Once was just about a friendship really... it was very romantic, but in a subtle way... also the musical score was great

RE: Would you quit job, sell car, house, tv and move after someone if you had fallen in LOVE?

Me too it would have to be someone that I considered 'the one' essentially, and I wouldn't rush into it.. someone who is really serious about you would allow you that time and space... as u would them

RE: Would you quit job, sell car, house, tv and move after someone if you had fallen in LOVE?

Its all in the pouring... there is an art to it .. .otherwise the difference isn't as great as you would imagine...

Nice to meet a fellow Guinness enthusiast though

RE: Would you quit job, sell car, house, tv and move after someone if you had fallen in LOVE?

This is precisely what I am saying.. which comes first the chicken or the egg... has this principally mistrusting society originated from the fact that we are princicpally mistrusting.... it is a fact of life that we will be let down.. at 35, I know something about that....but I refuse to let negative experiences and/or negative people take possession of my future.. that my friend belongs to me.. and I chose to continue to give people and life the benefit of the doubt

RE: WHO ARE THE BEST FILMMAKERS ? SHOULD AFRICAN PEOPLE BE BANNED FROM MAKING FILMS ?

Irish cinema has improved sooo much lately... have you seen 'once'.. fabulous.. I have watched it three times already
