RE: Motivation.

Making stuff. I love making things - and it changes according to my mood. Time to myself some glue, some craft supplies and I'm a happy girl ...

saw him on some late night chat thing and he was the "man", irreverent, humorous but oh so passionate .... Prince Phillip might have a good day out for once!

but he looks like he puts away manly sized portions. no piddly cucumber sandwiches with no crusts for afternoon tea.

So I should be thankful my daughter only tells people we are getting a white puppy called Rosie ... She's got one sister and that's obviously enough competition ...

With the right surgeon and a good course of laser therapy never say never ....

I think the coat might be your problem

this morning, my 2 lovely but early rising daughters got into bed with me and the eldest(4) started chatting and said when she grows up she wanted to be a fairy princess.
She turned to her sister (2) and asked - what do you want to be when you grow up?
"Up a tree" was her sister's reply.
Then she asked and mummy, "What do you want to be want to be when you grow up?"

Oh what indeed .... ?

RE: How Approachable Are You?

Probably, although I've always found it easier to chat to guys rather than girls - and in general, always been like that - through work and whatever - not just "chatting up" type situations. My oldest friends are male and outside of my best friend, so would most of my casual friends.

RE: DATING !

Depends on the person and the situation - I'd never met anyone on here and then actually got a mail off someone who didn't live too far away, chatted on phone and met up 48 hours later but as it turned out we actually did have a shared past, through a workplace ...
other than that chatting for about a month or so and have met and for a couple of months and yet to - so they're already "friends" ..
I'd say "I don't know you" if I felt not ready to met them - that I hadn't got a perspective on them yet, or perhaps if I did not want to.

RE: How Approachable Are You?

Quite agree with that - some people can find me a bit stand offish but I'm actually really chatty if can find some commonality and it can be something quite small or trivial ...

RE: fathers?

aspirational stuff. I saw a couple like that in Loughrea recently, in their 80's and holding hands having a nap in the car. Made me smile with just a little pang of envy.

RE: Why do you think your single?

oooooo ... go girl ...

RE: Plans

somebody pays you?

RE: did your last love tear you apart?

Nah - think we jointly tore apart anything we had together. Til there was so little left you wonder how it ever happened.

RE: fathers?

Definitely true what you say about fathers - mine died when I was 15 but he was definitely the one that shaped many of my basic values and views on religion, society and perhaps to a lesser extent politics. Maybe I do remember him through rose coloured glasses.
Conversely my mother ran off with my father's best friend ... so guess why I never married - took me about 2 decades to actually reach a point where I could see she had her reasons but I will never condone how she did things ...

Budge over ....

true. but it becomes an easier alternative at times - why sit in a bar being ignored, switch on your broadband and connect ... except very few of us are really ...

RE: help :(

fair point - talk to everyone as if on my own page ... but feel like I have been on my page for a long time ... and so by now everyone has read it.

RE: help :(

If there's drink and messing and drink and messing ... it gets messier than Mr Messy's house ... and at least with pick ups they go away next day ...
But from my vantage point - I will say, the friends that are meant will stay and you will stay with them ... perhaps not together .. but friends all the same ...

RE: crufts ....

my - you are demand tonight sweetheart How can you keep up ?

RE: help :(

that's great advice but how do you rescue the friendship from there or do you just hang it out to dry as well?
Or do you rely on one of you to put precedence on friendship over relationship?
