so far it seems only a third of people are here because they are looking for a relationship! wow! interesting to know. im here because i am ready to meet someone special and all going well, enter into a relationship. i see online dating as just another medium for meeting people. im am trying to be proactive in my love life, but so far, to no avail............
well i havent been in galway in years (hence lots of excitement in coming down) and have never been in The Dail so i didnt have a clue really. anyho, i sucked it up and made the most of my night in galway and had drinks with some randomers... lol but i was disappointed not to meet all the CS peeps.... :(
hey lads! only getting to the internet today! i came down from donegal to galway on saturday and arrived to The Dail around 10pm, the pub was totally jammers and all i seemed to find were birthday parties and hen-dos. no CS'ers!!!??? didnt see anyone i recognised at all. but it seems from this that there were people there! its my own fault really for not exchanging a contact number with someone, i suppose i didnt expect the pub to be sooo packed
k, so i was out on a date last night with a guy, first date, more of an ice breaker than anything...
i asked him out. i gave him my number first.
the date went well and he showed interest in meeting again via text after the date. but nothing was actually arranged, which is fine. but what i am thinking now, is should i ease off being forward, and let him do the asking if he wants to continue??
so buying cds is for days gone by, but what if i still want to buy an album and just listen to all the songs? i cant do that on youtube can i? i wouldnt know all the names of the songs. youtube is grand for singles.
recently i have been interested in what my rating is. men, being visual creatures, often rate us ladies from 0-10, 10 being a hottie. the people that vote dont know you from adam, so i wondered what my average was turns out im very average according to connectingsingles folk, a big 5 for me! dont think i'd get bogged down in it though
i moved to a new town last Feb due to a career opportunity and am really struggling to make friends in the new area. im starting to get really disheartened about it and worst of all... lonely... never a nice thing... i have tried lots of things, i joined hill walking clubs, drama clubs, sports, volunteer work... in some cases the people involved dont seem interested in making (new) friends or i meet people of a different age-range to me, for example teenagers or people in their 50s or 60s... this seems pretty ageist i am aware, but i would just like to know 3 or 4 people around my age to hang out with... simple... or not so it seems can anyone help me out with some suggestions?? im running out of ideas......

hello all! i have just finished reading "the Game" by neill strauss have you read it? and if so what are you opinions on it and the world of PUA's (Pick Up Artists)...... thanks
hello, i would like all CS'ers opinion on this dating experience of mine.
so i have been on a few dates with a 27 year old guy, it has all been going well, we are compatible, there is chemistry, conversation is flowing etc etc. on the last date the topic of dating/relationship history came up. i was completely stumped when he told me he had never had a girlfriend. all i could think to ask was "why?" and he responded that he had never found the right girl to get seriously involved with. so i left it at that. but its been on my mind and friends tell me he must be gay and in denial or possbily he was in jail.... anyone else got any ideas?
on the one hand i think i am also aware of not wanting to lead someone on. if i say yes to a second date they may be like "woohoo" whereas im lukewarm..... that doesnt seem fair to me.....
on the other hand im aware that people can be nervous on first dates (including me) and not totally relaxed..... do you think this affects whether there is chemistry or not....
did anyone read the article in the Irish Times a week or so ago about speed dating? i found it very interesting. the age range thing came up in this. the age range was 25-35, which the girls stuck to and the men who arrived in were any age at all 40, 45 etc. i was surprised at this. we irish arent well known for our complaining but bad word of month.... that we are good at.....
i agree totally with tomboygirls sentiments. you have to make contact.... not that i follow my own advice.... when the shyness hits im doomed. but this guy you are talking about.... yes i am creeped out and i feel a little ill now also.... unfortunately some naive young women may be flattered by the attention of an older man and not see him for the weirdo he is. i reckon he should "HIT on" a waitness his own age... the outcome of that would be interesting... plus, in regard to a person in third level education behaving like this.... i met lots of dumbasses in college, having an education does not mean you have common sense or morals unfortunately....
