RE: I need a hug so much right now

Oh you´re so much nicer than me.

RE: I need a hug so much right now

I think you appear to be a lovely person and you are a prolific poster in such a short time of being here. I admire your confidence for achieving that, yet find it ironic that you post a thread like this. Don´t you have friends or family to give you that hug or boost?

I´m sorry if that seems harsh, but I never understand why people post threads like this. Is it simply a lack of confidence? People here, or many here seem truly great people, but really, the people most important in one´s life should be those closest to you in the real world. This is patently clear when you read the numerous threads and see posted pics about people´s families etc. Blood is stronger than CS! As it should be.

I understand that not everyone has the luxury of turning to people in their real life circle of family and friends, and if that is the case here please forgive me.

I just know I´m going to be lambasted now.

Oh and don´t let Scotty see this.

RE: to much chocolate leads to small head

All I can say is how sad.

RE: GIRLS OF CS

We are women, not girls...the majority anyway.

RE: Finally threw the line out to a guy--SOS advice please!

Good luck sweet man. I´m sure you know what you´re doing, and I
can´t really offer any advice. I rarely do in these situations whoever it may be. Only my best wishes for you and to tell you to stop being so nervous!

It was interesting for me to see who actually responded to your thread though....only two guys I think?

I hope all goes well for you.

RE: Top 5 Favorite Posters

No apology necessary, you were spot on with your typo actually!

And thank you.

RE: Landing on Moon: was that true??????

RE: Top 5 Favorite Posters

I have a few favourites, but that´s only because we appear to have similar views on things if I´m honest. Others I like because they make me laugh because of their irreverent and controversial sense of humour, not often fully appreciated by many folk here.

RE: Open For Y'All Input

And another one bites the dust.

Really, how many stories like this do we read here, far too many and I´m beginning to think that there are very few trustworthy people on these dating sites.

I´m sorry you learnt the hard way, but at least it will enable you to be forearmed and forewarned in the future.

RE: Landing on Moon: was that true??????

Why do you people have to be so rude and pick on an individual so relentlessly? It isn´t completely outside the realms of possibility that someone might know a little more than you is it?

RE: wot didya eat 2nite....

Grilled sardines and salad with some lovely Spanish red wine. Yummy, but I´m reducing carbs so missed my bread.

RE: Landing on Moon: was that true??????

It´s all lies, I tell you, lies!!!!

And to the OP, if you don´t want to hear opposing views and have to be rude to those who post contra your beliefs, then don´t pose a question to the hundreds of forum posters for goodness sake.

RE: i am curious......

I don´t think it "eats" everybody as you say. It´s simply a fact of life that there are opposing views to everything that bonds us together as the human race. Some will try to actively convert those who disagree with their point of view, others simply refuse to acknowledge that there may just be an alternative and will argue to the death that they are right, and a few good souls simply accept that it takes all sorts to exist happily therefore make concessions, and listen.

RE: my date walked away

Hi sweet man, yes I´m busy busy but having a weekend of total relaxation holed up in the house. Drat, I´ve invited people for lunch tomorrow though so that´s going to spoil things!

RE: Blah blah blah....

Hi V I don´t agree though. Perhaps they are the most benign because the comments are cryptic and nobody knows who they are directed to therefore no drama unfolds.

I don´t mean the harmless "good morning", "I feel crap" etc comments. They are benign and funny to read at times.

RE: my date walked away

No it´s not. I said earlier, and a couple of others, that we understood why this man did not want another date with the OP.

Hi H.

RE: Blah blah blah....

Oh my last dog, a beautiful labrador was named Bailey, a he though and I miss him so much. I have had dogs all my life until I divorced and started travelling. Bailey stayed in the UK with my ex until he died, and now I can´t have a dog with my lifestyle sadly.

Anuway, tears aside, I don´t like these kind of threads, people more often than not make cryptic comments which are quite frankly nasty.

RE: Out of these countries where do you think is more friendly and welcoming?

I´ve had the good fortune to be welcomed by folk in many countries where I´ve lived and worked, but one country not on your list which is one of my favourites for friendliness is Russia.

RE: What are you?

I´m a winner P. What are you doing over here on the scary forum?

Up the reds.

RE: A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE

I think you need to be more specific.

Most of us here are old and ugly enough to tell a tale or two.

RE: What are u allergic to?

Nothing in the medical sense thankfully.

I´m a bit dubious about all the so called allergies which exist today.

RE: how much important to u,the look of ur date

Yes I agree, it´s very important for me too. Well groomed and smelling nice makes a big impression on me. Then of course I have to discover if the personality is as good....not always the case sadly.

RE: Tooth aches......

Every pain imagineable is worse at night, probably for the reasons Imma gave, clever girl. hi Imma

Go to the dentist.....oh and belated birthday greetings young man.

RE: Leave an Anonymous Message...

What´s up with you? Don´t you know by now that posts like these won´t gain any favours? You disappoint me my friend.

Who cares how much time people spend here? Yes it´s patently clear who the 24/7 folk are as you say, but just be thankful you aren´t one of them.

RE: my date walked away

Me too.

RE: Just how bad is it??

I´ve just read throygh this and it´s turned into a nightmare with a lot of knee jerk reactions as per usual!

I think jac´s first post was the most fitting and answered the OP succinctly without any drama or deep analysis which wasn´t necessary. When I read the OP I only thought of "mal humor" or bad tempered, moods which I´m sure we all experience from time to time.

Sometimes I go to work feeling a lite moody, not through illness or depression thankfully, but perhaps because I didn´t get enough sleep, my hair won´t straighten well, or I´m feeling hormonal....whatever, non serious things, but I do go into my classes with a huge smile because I must, and the feedback from my students changes my mood immediately.

Is that what you were getting at Clearlystated?

RE: burka

Yes they are very beautiful and I had one made for me when I was in Sri Lanka which I adore.

I think many Westerners don´t fully understand that covering oneself in extremely hot temperatures can be actually cooler and prevents skin damage. Noel Coward´s "Mad dogs and Englishmen..." springs to mind. Even here in Spain where there is no religious dress code, the locals are astounded at the holidaymakers who strip off and walk around red as beetroots!

That´s not fundamentally what this argument is about though is it.
