RE: Romantism does not survive!

Yes, it's the paying attention in gearing a gesture to what the other person picked up from paying close attention, is what it's all about. Nothing to do with money or material goods.

And yet, something so simple, seems to have become such an elusive occurrence.

RE: Romantism does not survive!

Yes, it was very beautiful.

And I agree, sitting down and discussing with an even temperament so there can be clearer understanding about an issue, should be fairly straight forward. Unless I am overtired, overwhelmed or similar, I am one that just can't help to want to talk things through. Only way I know on finding out was is or is not wrong.


I have no idea why romantic gestures are biewed so negatively. Having said this, such gestures have been known to be misused, and may be in the guise of a romantic gesture, but really intended for some other purpose. Such as the husband buying his wife a dozen long stemmed roses, because he felt guilty about some indescretion he may have committed, but did not own up to!

RE: Romantism does not survive!

Everything is so personal and what is romantic for one person is not for another. No rules there.

Two people need to know each other well enough, otherwise, issues of 'creepiness' already mentiioned surface.

My parents have been married over 50 years. My father came over one day, and saw violets growing in my front garden (I noticed they are blooming again, now it is spring here). He stopped all excited, and as he stooped to pick some he said with such delight, "Violets are your mother's favourite flowers'. I was stunned to see this behaviour in my father, as they are known for the odd argument or two. He was pleased as punch to be able to present her with the tiny posie he had cllected!

Certainly not an everyday occurrence from him,lol

RE: Which do you prefer?

Hmmm.... Vegas, Passion, Yoghurt.


What an interesting set of ingredients for a 'passion potion'!

RE: Romantism does not survive!

If you're dating a woman that doesn't appreciate it, stop dating her! Simple.

Of-course it's fun to be romantic. It can be shown in a million different ways.

As you said, it shows the other person that you think about them and care enough to show them.

It's so easy to get caught up with 'stuff' and forget what is truly important.



OK. Now, I shall get off my podium!

RE: Romantism does not survive!

Give to charity, sure.

But don't forget the little things. No need for anything expensive.

Even just picking a flower as you walk, and giving it your lady, is the loveliest thing to do. So, if you like to be romantic, don't let that go!#@

RE: Which do you prefer?

Hi Modestly,
What happens in Vegas, in respect to passionate people?

RE: Astrology Match

BTW. Nothing intended against any male Scorpios here! Just based on my own experiences only. That's all we can ever do.

RE: Astrology Match

Yes, but not based on the astrological signs. I have never found matching on that basis to show any reliability. It's much more complex than that. I will nonetheless wait on hearing from my 107 year old great uncle !!!

One thing I can say though, I will never date a Scorpio! My brother is one. He's a shocker at communicating with women! But he's great to have a good argument!

RE: Astrology Match

Thanks for all your hard work kamelia!


Various other friends I met while there recently, are also avidly looking. One thing an Italian is not allowed to NOT have.



Oops, let me qualify that! It should read, "One thing an Italian woman....."

RE: Astrology Match

Thanks for all your hard work kamelia!

I actually have my 107 year old great uncle in Italy, going through his list of eligibile Italian men, as we speak.

One he has put forward, is a 30 yr old nephew of his. His heart's in the right place!!!

Various other friends I met while there recently, are also avidly looking. One thing an Italian is not allowed to NOT have.

One is a handbag. Musn't be seen without one. And has to be leather of-course!

The other i...... a MAN !!!!!!

RE: Which do you prefer?

I can vouch for the fact that Italians are passionate



How could I have missed this opportunity....???!!!

RE: Do I just go ahead and date my Brother!!

Hi mylifewithyou

This is kind of related to your thread.

Until my brother recently took on an all-consuming job, most of my socialising with men, revolved around going for coffees with my brother. He is often the only male around here with whom I can have an intelligent converstion, even argument, about politics, the economy, employment market, investments, real estate.....

So, here I find myself, still as me, myself, and I

RE: BLATANT BLATHERING THREAD....NO SERIOUS CONTENT...YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Good for you, xoredheadxo!

Singing lullaby.....

Oh, I'm sure this blathering thread allows for lots of snoring and as much sleep time as required.

It seems to encourage better blathering the next time 'round!

RE: BLATANT BLATHERING THREAD....NO SERIOUS CONTENT...YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Well then, given that I respect Fallingman's opinion, what can I say, RAY?

RE: Sleep depravation is like driving drunk..Two night with only a few hours sleep makes me dangerous.

So true, hollandgirl!

The body responds as if you were drunk, when sleep deprived. In the last four weeks, I can't remember having one full night's sleep. It will be SO nice when it does

RE: BLATANT BLATHERING THREAD....NO SERIOUS CONTENT...YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Why not ask Fallingman? It's his thread.

RE: BLATANT BLATHERING THREAD....NO SERIOUS CONTENT...YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

I have a sickness certificate all ready for your employer!!!

(Does it need to be from a doctor? )

RE: BLATANT BLATHERING THREAD....NO SERIOUS CONTENT...YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Yep, you're right, too.

Said you would be!!!

RE: BLATANT BLATHERING THREAD....NO SERIOUS CONTENT...YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Of-course you're right!

Now that I am also Italian again, I feel the Aussie part of me kinda slipping away.....!!!

And....it shows I never repeated it 20 times myself!!!

RE: BLATANT BLATHERING THREAD....NO SERIOUS CONTENT...YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

I'll second that! I have had Scotch Whiskey and could barely tolerate it.

But since recently partaking of some of the best Irish whiskey on offer, I could never go back.

Nothing else comes close!

RE: Astrology Match

Well, another thing, I was born in the northern hemisphere, now I live in the southern hemisphere.

And even the water as it goes down the drain does so in the opposite direction here.

So I have absolutely no hope!!!

RE: Astrology Match

I totally agree, Galactic. Besides, what if you're a horse, or a goat, or a snake, or a pig, or a monkey...????

But YOU can talk about recipes for disaster.

Posting such poems on a singles site!!!

RE: BLATANT BLATHERING THREAD....NO SERIOUS CONTENT...YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Of-course you're right. On this thread, because you have gathered so many moths to the flame, we all allow you to be right about absolutely everything.

All agreed???

RE: BLATANT BLATHERING THREAD....NO SERIOUS CONTENT...YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Hi stooie

Of-course I am. This is not a serious site, after all!!!

Oi, oi? Hmm, gee, the best of Aussie lingo catches on the world over...



So, you must learn to say it properly. It is: " Oi, Oi, Oi, Aussie, Aussie, Aussie!!!"

Now, practice that 20 times a day. Promise???
