RE: GENERAL CHIT CHAT THREAD

we just like to let you guys think that you thought it first!

oops now the secret is out

RE: Our health...I'll drink to that!

oh ' wee sleekit timerous cowerin' beastie
oh what a panics in thy breastie' or words to that effect!! isn't it burns day soon- ah for haggis neeps and champit tatties- my favourite meal!!

what song describes you lol

ok so the more i hear it the more i think that bagatelles song 'outragous' is 'my song' try you tube if you don't know it.
what song describes you to a 't'?? ( ok maybe not to a t but it is the song of my life in some ways )

RE: anybody there to wish me?

isn't it funny to look back and see the people that posted here in 2006 all, that i can see, other than nuala who has returned ( and I am sad but glad to see you here) are all gone. I suppose that some have found love, some have just drifted of,and some were pissed off by the way things were going at the time and left. soooo folks, you see these things truly do go in cycles, things are fun and even romantic for a while, and then maybe things go a bit astray, and a few trolls arive, so lets get over that and start the new phase of the friendly CS

RE: What excites you?

purdy= pretty

RE: What excites you?

ha ha- is your laptop tall dark and handsome j/k!!

RE: What excites you?

kisses, kisses , kisses- does it for me everytime-
okay lets start at the very beginning- a very good place to start !!
in a 'potential' man= eyes, a look, a man who is interested in me, will talk to me, be near, touch my hand/arm/other

someone that i am already 'with'... kisses that are going somewhere or nowhere- just kissing is the start of anything for me- a slow sensous one, a loving expectant one- and sometimes one leads to the other- hopefully!
a man that takes the time to spend time with me, doesn't care if his friends are right beside us- i love to spend time with his friends too, but makes me realise that he enjoys my company and wants to be with just me- that turns me on sooo much!

RE: what work you do

district nurse

RE: Hey Everybody! Please say "Hello" to my friend Carla.

Hi carla, and welcome

RE: I am nearly in tears here

they will E, when things calm down- these things go in cycles- it is good to get a break and come back with fresh thought and a bit of reserve to deal with the occasional hassle in the meantime- enjoy the new people that has come on here recently- they are the life blood of the forums

RE: English/American words

In a day, i eat breakfast, lunch and tea.
i get confused when the irish use 'dinner' for either lunch or evening meal.

RE: English/American words

just don;t offer any girl to 'knock you up in the morning'

to me that means 'call at the house to awaken you' but to others it can mean a whoe different thing

oh i had some hilarious misunderstandings when i lived there

noone in texas understood me for ages, and thought my irish friends and i were 'talking in our own language' when we were just talking fast in (me) scottish-english and (her) irish-english. they eventually understood me, but when i went home for two weeks and came back, i was back to square one!!
having said that- they loved to hear me speak and I got away with murder at work because of my accent

RE: Is there a connection between good looks and arrogance?

come on now S- you're not brad pitt but then i'm no angelina, but neither of us is 'ugly'!!
i have been accused to being 'aloof' 'stuck up' on occasion- but by people that didn;t know me, but all those that have since got to know me, have come to realise that it was actually shyness, or insecurity, and are now close friends.
arogance to me is someone who thinks their opinion/ life/ job/family' etc is better or more important than yours and will belittle others, that they don't think meet their standards.
often( usually) they are hiding the fact that they don't really like their life/job/family etc and are too ashamed to admit it

RE: is it really bad manners to say Whatever?

or do you mean
'matchstick men and matchstick cats and dogs'

i think when the word is used on it's own.. it's more a 'whatever!!' and is dismissive, as in ' you think what you want, i don't care or agree'

RE: English/American words

no wonder they say america and britain are 'two countries divided by a common language''

RE: CS Valentines Night in Dublin, Saturday, 14 February

ooh- the sign up list is looking hot just as well I'm not going or think my neck would be sore, from not knowing which direction to look next

hoping to hear of lots of valentine romance

RE: Mind your workplace manners -- it pays

i found out that americans can be soooo unreasonable when i worked in the US-... all i did at work one day was ask to 'borrow a rubber'

RE: Mind your workplace manners -- it pays

your round MF

RE: After last night, please!

I am sorry you had to deal with this- and to have to break the hearts of her parents telling them.

RE: WORDS OF WISDOM

good ones

RE: Can you Ever Go Back to A Relationship?

hmm- that's a tricky one. I can see that, yes, he would now have more time to concentrate on you, but...... if he didn't value your relationship enough to realise that he was 'neglecting' you while he was ''too busy being a lawyer''... then would he really have changed, just because he isn't working.?
I, obviously don't know him, so can't really say- only you know that.

RE: genuinely confused

[/quote

and exactly why I don't join in the forums....

oh please don't do that- things have been a little weird around here recently, but it is not normally like this. It will blow over hopefully- there are only a few apparently unpleasant people here, and they usually leave, or sometimes turn out to be really nice people that have been taken the wrong way, or let something get to them and reacted badly and out of character.
Give us another chance

RE: genuinely confused

Ok- so i may have missed something here, and i am probably not going to make myself popular here, but i don't really see anything wrong with what GF posted as his OP.
I am not talking about anything else that went on in any other threads recently- only about this thread- and don't see why people have jumped on him.
i do think it , unfortunately, goes a bit of a way to compound the fears that some have had that there is a different attitude displayed towards less known members.

i would hazard to guess that if one of the 'supposed pack' (of which i have been accused of being a member), had posted a thread saying that, say, I had recieved an email saying the same thing, that my friends and probably all here, would be saying how terrible it was, and since there were no clues as to who the other person was, would not have accused me of airing dirty laundry?

i don't know any of the circumstances of the contact that the two involved had, but i don't know GF, and i know I like LM.
i don't think some should be able to post something and be supported and others do it and get attacked- unless there are extremely obvious reason

RE: only new here 2 months:already set backs !!!!!!!!!!!!

regardless of whether you were carrying 'a few pounds extra', or looked a little slimmer in your pics, anyne that would come right out and say 'you are fat' to someone, anyone is waaaayyy beyond rude. Glad you had the self confidence to not let that ba&tard get you down and stop looking. IN one sense- thank goodness he didn't think you were just as imagined, as you may actually have started going out with him- I'm sure extreme rudness was not his only character flaw

even if i met someone on here, and thought they were completely not my type, for whatever reason, I like to think i would at least give them the benefit of the doubt and enjoy our date. whether or not i chose to see them again would depend on what they were like to spend time with!

For the OP- your friend sounds like another who has had a lucky escape. Hopefully she can see that his comments are nothing do do with what she looks like- if he really thought that, then why was he asking for a body pic??

some people- male or female, are just dragged up

RE: Well I couldnt stay away!!!!

Hi Nuala- welcome back Hope you had a good Christmas. How are the kids doing??

RE: as a nation

couldn't get that site to work properly- but I think that for anyone to use that kind of weaponagainst their fellow man is despicable

RE: Thanks You Are Great

welcome- glad you're enjoying it- hope you find some romance as well as fun

RE: question on the kiddies..

it certainly complicates the equation but can also be a good indicator of whether that person is for you or not. the guy I am seeing has grown up kids while mine are 7,9 and 11 and he seems to have no problem with that and likes kids.
Having said that, my kids have a father, and he lives nearby and sees them a few nights a week, so they don't need a Dad. If, in the future, we get serious, and he meets them- at first he will be my 'friend' and maybe later, my boyfriend ( though that may come a lot sooner than i planned since his brother , who lives beside me, told his son( my mans nephew) that we were going out- confused??? you will be - so i suppose i will have to tell my kids unless i want their 9 year old neighbour to break the news)

I can't really comment on how i would feel if i was single and no kids if i met a man with kids. but i do know i would never try to replace their mother- that is a sacred bond.
I actually met my ex's g/f at our local christmas party and we got on like a house on fire ( I live in wisteria lane, WX and i'm sure a few noses were out of joint that we didn;'t have a cat fight and give them something to talk about )

RE: Serious or fun?

i regret to stooping to that level. I will leave it thinking that you misread, and misunderstood what i wrote on that thread- if you read it correctly you would realise that keeping my kids from the Dad they adore, or using them as pawns, is not only hurtful but so far from the truth as to be laughable. i am hurt by your acusations, but will take it as being the misunderstanding of the written/online word that does not explain things as they really are, especially when people don't know the person/situation

RE: Serious or fun?

That comment speaks for itself. you are a small man
