You asked: You've set limitations on what you are seeking, why?
I put quite a lot of effort into my profile so when fellas send one-liners with one-line profiles I feel there's an imbalance of giving. If I tell a lot about myself and you don't reciprocate, then you put yourself in a position of power - where you have the info needed to help you make a decision, but I don't. So I see that reciprocation as considerate and courteous.
Having said that, I am a bit more understanding than I was, given that I am really talkative, enjoy writing and I'm a fast typist. A strong, silent type of man, a man who isn't keen of expressing himself in writing or a man who types at 10 wpm might be less inclined to open up in a written message. | |

Lowkeydifferent, I understand what you are getting at with the one liners, sadly I seem to be suffering a case of foot-in-mouth disease yesterday, won't happen again and apology tendered. | |

Rest assured, your foot is safely within your shoe and no taste of leather is sullying your mouth  | |

i'm giving it a go with someone i normally wouldn't choose or have been with before,
so think of me and thanks for you're advice it definately helped me to make the decision to meet him, although he was keen, i was doubtful, but here we go,
throwing all the pre-conceived notions and ideals to the wind and i'll see what happens.....sooooo nervous.. | |

I'm having a wonderful time with my man. We talk about so many things and it's amazing how relaxed and comfortable we are with each other. We click on so many levels.
My fingers will be crossed for you. He may not be the right one but hey, you never know if you don't have a go! | |

Posted: 2/2/2007 3:02:49 PM | Thanks again Jewel for this post, it was definately one of the many things that got my attention right before meeting my now 'partner'...
i'm feeling my way as we go along, i'm not used to being treated soooo special and just totally adored, but hey, i can get used to it i'm sure , he he!
We see each other a few times a week as he doesnt live too far away, his life has been relatively uneventful like u said with ur man jewel, at what point would i spew forth my colourful slate of life though....and would it be too much to hear, i dont know....
do you still have times in conversation or whatever where you're just like....huh! | |
