I had the same experience. Could never get him to take time off work. Our holidays meant going on different flights his an hour later than mine because of work. He used to bring his laptop to bed daily, come home and bury himself in his laptop. I am a professional myself but I was never married to my profession. His emotional neglect left me with severe depression. Never again.
lol quite a lot actually but they're just encounters getting to know men over a coffee. Don't get away with the idea that anything intimate goes on as happened in another thread. I get invites, meet the guys and talk. This week I had three dates but cancelled one. I keep trying to find a good one but he's eluding me so far!
i was confused myself. drinking at the beach can be romantic but I didn't feel comfortable doing that on a first date. At least the bar was quite deserted. I don't know what's happening to me I'm on my guard all the time but it just didn't seem like a wise idea at the time. You know a couple of drinks on an isolated beach and you can easily be taken advantage of.
I like it when a man offers to pick me up for a date but seeing I meet men from cs whom I don't know I insist on meeting in a public place and drive myself. Yesterday I had a date and made an exception/mistake I let him pick me up at a designated landmark. I insisted we go for drinks whereas he wanted to go and drink a bottle of wine he had brought himself at the beach. This really put me off and I won't be seeing the man again. In the end we didn't go to the beach. I insisted we stop at a bar but I've sworn never again to let a man pick me up even though he was a gentleman. I don't know if his intentions were to be romantic or otherwise but I didn't like his idea of wine at the beach. Also he never stopped talking on his mobile throughout the date. I thought he really had bad manners.
If the rent is paying your mortgage you can't just leave and go travelling, if you don't have enough money. Moving back in with parents is nothing to be ashamed of if the sacrifice allows you to hold on to an asset such as property.
That's exactly the situation I'm in. I chose to rent it out and move back with parents. I've also applied for benefits. To the poster who mentioned the streets having been filled with gold. I landed myself in this situation because I moved to London seven years ago then came back to Malta and was branded over experienced. I'm qualified and experienced and 38 years old that's not a good combination for the job market especially the age. Employers tend to employ younger than 35.
I spent most of my childhood outdoors, at the beach, on boats, camping, swimming, cycling in the countryside. At the same time I also used to enjoy staying in reading and relaxing at home. Eventually as an adult I just morphed into a homebody. I hate the thought of camping, or long walks or hikes or anything adventurous. I think I must have had enough adventure as a child.
At times I think men love the outdoors because of the hunter/explorer in them. The other possibility is that people are scared of coming across as boring if they say they are a homebody in their profile.
I had dinner with a lady from CS yesterday. It was nice to spend time with a woman and I definitely need more friends. This is an invite to the ladies in Malta, if you're feeling lonely and have nobody to go out with please get in touch. I don't go out much because I don't fancy the idea of going to a club or bar on my own. Needed girlfriend to go out with.
Blah Blah Blah.... the most innocent of comments gets accused of being negative. it's a hobby with you. You are a judgmental person who loves bashing in the guise of giving advice.
Hello patmac - the usual suspect who investigates and looks up my profile with every new thread to see how he can bash me in the forums about negativity and whining. At least I have better things to do than viewing people's profiles and past threads to bash them in the forums. I think you're the sad person of the two of us.
Blarney seems to enjoy bashing people on the forums. Just ignore like I do and do your own thing. If I had a penny every time someone like Blarney bashed me or called me names I'd be rich by now but I decide to keep on posting and to hell with whoever does not like my threads or calls me negative or a whiner.
I used to have a job that required quite a bit of travel so I'm used to travelling alone. The holidays I took with my ex were horrible. Deffo prefer travelling alone.
i've loved truly but left because it wasn't reciprocal. Not a great believer these days judging from my experience you give a lot and get kicked in return, so lonely and single is a better place to be than with an unappreciative man. At least for me.

I'd say yes to a date with you Boban!
