Linkalicious> "Gorgeous, smart, and a hell of a conversationalist.....and you're looking for advice?" Wow, thanks. And, yes, I am. Looking for advice that is¡K
Don¡'t take advice from other people? I think I know what you mean, but you see¡K I¡¦ve been through SOME men in my life, and until know I've always ended up pulling my hair out, throwing my arms in the air and leave.
In this day and age, where we use and abuse things (and people unfortunately), I've come to the realisation that I look for the wrong kind of man. What ever it is I THINK I want is not what I really want¡K
And after a long marriage I need to get out and start the tantrum of flirting and stuff again.
So therefore I need to know how to
Debbiejo> Well, no harm done in looking, is there? My friends always tell me, I don't know a guy is flirting with me, even if he¡¦s in front of my face.
A usual night out with the girlie-crew:
Friend A: "Woaw, Omega, he REALLY liked you!"
Me: "Who? THAT guy?"
Friend B: "Yes, he was totally flirting with you."
ME: "THAT guy? What¡K no, he was just asking to buy me a drink."
(General hitting me with bags ensues).
PVS> Thank you. 🙂
Yes, love is totally irrational, what is a scientist like me supposed to do?? Can't make an equation, can't calculate, can't rationalise it...
Well, no problem with getting laid. I AM gorgeous and all that¡K But eventually that gets empty, and simply a way for adults to get self-confirmation. Then it's hollow..
I can only agree on the fact, that if people live a lie about love then they're blinding themselves and worse... lying to themselves. I can see the difference in the couples I know, between those who KNOW love, and those who have settled for less. I cannot do the latter... I'm just not very good with irrational (flashes uni-degree as excuse...)...
I'm not very good at staring at the mobile-phone for five minutes, waiting for that sweetest, most handsome and great guy to reply¡K in a way I forgot to expect...
Bardock> Being in love is like being insane. My best friend once made that comparison. What don't we DO when we're in love? The most foolish things...
Mechmoggy> 😆
Sometimes just one post is enough to remind me, why I love this forum¡K despite the hassle when people CAN'T see eye to eye...
GCG>"well if the guy is a total stranger, you cannot just lasoo him off the kerb and into your house"
😆 What? Why not?
"....Is this someone in particular at Work, A shop, A neighbour or a close friend ?"
Well, truth be told... there are two! Both are friends of mine, known them for years... Both are currently single (one in the middle of a divorce)... I've flirted with both... But this is a looooonger story... and it is complicated...
Backfire> It's not soon... I think. My husband and I separated almost a year ago, and while I've enjoyed the last year as a single woman with all the benefits that entails... I know in my heart that I'd like someone to take me into his arms and whisper sweet words in my ear, someone to share my life with...
About being direct. Well... In these two cases it is NOT that easy, because the gents in question are not complete strangers. And I am not sure exactly what I feel either... But as one of them once said to me, "If you think there's an opportunity over there, then GO over there and check it out."
Fly to California? 🙂
Well, maybe I do that one day¡K I've never been to CA, but I've heard it should be a cool place to VISIT! I have visited friends from I've met on the INET, and you're one of those people I wouldn't be scared to meet.
Capt> There are TWO guys... They won't disappear right now, and maybe BadKitty is right and I should wait.. But they're just... (twirls hair and looks weird)... I know what sex with one of them is like, and that was pretty damn amazing... It was just supposed to be fun, a friend I'd had for years, with me going "Hm, he's actually a handsome guy, easy, not too bright, but hey, let's seduce him," But afterwards I actually got to KNOW the guy and he's a damn lot more interesting than I originally thought¡K
The other is my martial arts instructor! ... Yeah, yeah...
But that's the way love goes... or...
