RE: Women are intelligent but...........?

RE: Women are intelligent but...........?

The first and lonly time I was called a fool was by a young man when I was 14.

We were at an Italian wedding, the kind I would habitually take a book to, and sit in a corner and read(yep, I did that once or twice)...I really didn't like them.

When I came for dancing, a young man came up to me and asked me to dance. I was really shy(still am )and refused. He came up really close and whispered in the softest voice..'You're a fool'...I'd pretty much say he was right all those years ago.

Sheer perfection!!

RE: If u had a choice of any pet what would it be???

You do really have to watch your p's and q's with a resident parrot. Could get you into a lot of trouble.

RE: If u had a choice of any pet what would it be???

One that could unlock the gate and take itself for a walk when I'm not here...

Love at first sight - Is there such a thing?

hi scottyburd, my above comment relates to your post also. Nice to see you.

Love at first sight - Is there such a thing?

Well, with so many conflicting reports, it seems that it can happen for some, but mostly not, for others. Whaichever is the case, loves requires constant nurturing for it to flourish, within a committed relationship. The tiniest, seemingly inconsequential thing, is sometimes the most treasured and welcomed.

p.s. above is dedicated to a friend of mine who introduced me to Mozza...

RE: Music that you listen to over and over again!

I used to listen to this one last year over and over...and it was played on all the long bus trips all over Italy last September! Then out of the blue, last week, they played it on television as they introduced the local Today, Tonight show. It took me by surprise!

Here's another of Clifford T. Ward. He wrote it for his 'missus' when he had to go away for a while...

RE: Music that you listen to over and over again!

Hi John, a pal of mine in the UK has introduced me to many, many wonderful songs. Depending on my mood, I will listen to one or other over and over.

Here is the first, from Clifford T. Ward;

RE: PROPERTY SITES GERMANY

Hi Juliette, you might want to send a note to Ulimaroa here on CS, as she lives in Germany and has a good idea of the property market there. I'm sure she can point you in the right direction. ...a lovely lady whom I met in person when she was in Australia 18mths ago. All the best.

Thanks, Phoenix...I had not heard that song in a long time. Johnny Cash lives on...

RE: MEN are shy.....?

I think that men are generally very shy with women. It's a shame, because so much time is lost and many wasted opportunities. Life is too short and should be enjoyed as much as possible.

Love at first sight - Is there such a thing?

So true. That is one thing no-one can ever do...stop you from loving them, just because they no longer/never did, love you.

RE: Shirts Off Saturday

You're a good man, 54xmax...

RE: would you date someone much older than you?

why did you start two threads exactly the same?

RE: would you date someone much older than you?

A little bit younger yes, but not too much older as it would be like dating my father.

RE: Lost my plane

Send someone with a helicopter up there to blow it back down. You can stand at the bottom and catch it.

RE: Why are there more singles?

Your mother is a smart woman!

Love at first sight - Is there such a thing?

It's highly unlikely that they would not want to be loved as it is an instinctive thing from birth. Babies deprived of touch and love fail to develop normally and often become intellectually and emotionally impared. So I would say they are afraid of being loved. Being their friend unconditionally is a good start.

Speedy recovery for Jem's pooch
They are pretty resilient creatures, poor darlings never complain, they just put up. Lots of hugs and healing to the poor thing.

RE: Why are there more singles?

Not here, trueheart ...mind you, he thinks it would be perfectly acceptable for his mother to live with a man. He just thinks I should never bother to marry again, saying I did it once and it didn't work so why would I want to do it again? Despite me saying not all men are like his father, he doesn't buy it. As I said, I doubt it will ever be an issue.

RE: Why are there more singles?

As a clever CS'er once said...venere is an anagram of 'veneer'(don't think it was colonelbogey )...so I'm just an illusion jlw, I'm not really here at all.

RE: Why are there more singles?

Haha...yes, that's right. My millions!

Hey, Vinny. Long time no see or hear. All is fine, ta. I have so much work to do, but hey...it can wait a while

Hope all is well in your world.
