How vulnerable do women feel with their lover?
Posted:
11/24/2009 3:25:12 AM
i agree with julianx.....I think that to take that step, to feel vulnerable...in all ways, not just when having sex, but to enter into that zone where we are vulnerable to everything, love, lust, hurt, not getting hurt, showing your inner thoughts and feelings to another person...is an adventure, and it is a wonderful feeling. But I think it's also at the same time, terrifying, but I like that point, experiencing that conflicting feeling/hesitation, then you actually choose that vulnerability, because you want to so much there seems to be no other option!

Im systematically working my way through them...there was the Very Spiritual German caught- him-taking- photos- of- gurls- WAY- too- young- at- swimming- hole-violin maker, the half Polish misogynistic naturopath, the neighbour (s0metimes I don't even need to look, they are living right beside me)"oh by the way did i tell you I only want some non-committed adult fun", the aussie by-the-way-i-like-to-write-nazi- erotica, the newzealander 'I'm-a- fireman-but- in- my spare- time- I'm- a- burglar-and- sell- drugs", the ..........need I go on....there is still LOTS of scope luvulongtime
and lots of time! ps Im pretty sure they're all still single if you want any addresses...

would we be happy if we could arrange to date ourselves?
Posted:
11/6/2009 11:27:10 PM
I was messaging with someone and he said "I sometimes think that many people on this site would be happy if they could just arrange to date themselves"...I laughed gaily:
But then started to think.....are we asking too much...someone so like ourselves, and with interests so much like our own, that it will be impossible to find someone?
So, do we really want to find someone at all, or are we just pretending, by having a profile on here..."oh look, Self, I've tried so hard, and there's no-one I can be compatible with."
And then I wondered, "oh gosh, would I like to date myself..what would that be like?"(answer: fabulous, stimulating, great food, and of course a bit scarey at times ......
..hell, now I'll never find someone...except if he can't read or never reads the forums, which presents a dilemma, or is that conundrum, Scholar? ........) no, seriously......
What does everyone in ForumWorld think about these q's?

Different approach to online dating
Posted:
11/6/2009 10:53:36 PM
spicynice girl...yes you will arouse yourself...and if you actually eat the celery, on the spot, at the supermarket,you will also attract the attention of the staff, security, and that attractive man who has read this and is also eating celery, and you will both fall in love (with one another, not with yourselves..oh this plot is getting so complex..) and you will live happily ever after...so be sure to wear your wedding dress to the supermarket so that when He sees you, he is in no doubt that you want a Serious Relationship and are not just wanting some casual celery sex...let me know how it goes.....
ps i made this mistake so learn from my experience...

re "why do supermarkets bring out the pheremones...?"
...maybe it's the celery, raw celery contains the male hormone androsomone to trigger female attraction,,,after a few bites his sweat glands start releasing the pheromone...it also acts to elevate mood in women.....gotta go, taking hoummus and celery over to the neighbour!!! ...lets see how she responds....hehe
or the ginger?? (see Dr Ava Cadell.."passion Power" )

to theprivateer82 ...re "I would like an apology"
...and to think I suspected you lacked a sense of humour!!!! ..oops, .sorry for that (that will be $297...apologies don't come cheap!! )
ps ...someone else mentioned working girls in the Valley first...how come they don't have to apologise, too? Are you also discriminatory?

quote "they will be able to know what I'm talking about when I discuss philosophy, or politics"...I read that the working girls in the Valley are mostly all working to fund their studying to be Drs (that is apart from the nurses who are so badly paid they leave nursing and work as strippers,) ...And, they'd be good listeners....so there you go...perfect!
wouldn't you think I'd be able to work out how to do "quote" ...the degree just isn't helping at all..

o no teejaybee, I didn't imply you were desperate...any more than I am ...could do with a poerty outng soonish....how long should one go without poetry before it becomes a health risk...hehegiggle.(o yeah, i sure do get offers, to pre-empt any snide remarks, but none i've wanted to take up on for a while..)
Sorry, don't have web address, but same newspaper report said they had an open day .....google them, perhaps they're having another open day soonish....
wonder what the hell they do at an open day at a brothel...can you please report back on this, teejaybee? I'll mention you in "Acknowledgments", for sure..

what does he want???
Posted:
10/23/2009 10:18:24 PM
Sounds as if he at least was brave enough to tell you in person, also that he will miss you.
Doesn't matter why he's gone back, he has and that's a fact. You probably also need to decide now what you will do if he asks you to take him back , as I reckon that could be on the cards. Decide, then stick to it when/if he does.
And in future, add the questions re ex, into your preliminary getting to know him...sometimes you won't like the answers, but you will save a LOT of time!

Posted:
10/21/2009 4:05:03 AM
gee, I never thought of that, you mean lots of people don't like poetry? these forums are SO educational...
Or maybe its the deep eroticism of the poetry and music...could that be it...? come on now, music's erotic, music's poetry set to music.
what about,
"Give me a demon lover hooting in the trees,
creeping in at night with eyes incandescent,
to light a bone fire under my heart,
making me burn so brightly
that the blaze leaks out through all the cracks in the walls"
and:
Alchemy (And Hilly, you wouldn't be asleep there's torrid music, and bourbon)
"Like those medieval mystics chasing esotoric knowledge,
fermenting forbidden fusions
in the hope of revelation,
we conspire undercover,
and our union is quickened by something
older and stranger than mere chemistry..." etc (christine Strelan)
And what about "Dance me to the end of love"...who wouldn't like that. But not too soon of course...

and not all of it making babies ...I read that Toowoomba's first legal brothel just opened, (called Deviations in case you get to Toowoomba and still no sex comes your way, said smiling and with no malicious intent, teejaybee69.) Anyway the newspaper report said that protests were initially held, but the girls have now been welcomed with a gift of a garden gnome from a Christian ladies group and note saying "Dear beautiful ladies of the night, we decided to deviate and give you this gnome as a welcome to the community.".. Hmmm, gnome looked , in picture to be holding a small axe, or tool or something...

poetry as foreplay
Posted:
10/21/2009 3:19:46 AM
Why is it that whenever I go to poetry readings festivals etc with men, they seem to think this is practically the foreplay over... Do they think," Well, I suffered through poetry, so you should now have sex with me?" Why do I keep going with them...hehe its just so much fun! Am I just a tease? Am I hoping for a Poetry Conversion? No, seriously.. if i met someone I really hit it off with, I wouldn't hold it against him if he also likes poetry...(except for the Premature Poetry men of course.)
anyone else like poetry?? any similar experiences? Am i being sexist? Men...any experiences of taking your date to poetry and she then expected sex from you??

Chatting internationally
Posted:
10/21/2009 2:23:15 AM
he probably suffers from what I call "premature poetry " also. I just had quite an ..interesting.. experience (i'm in Brisbane) where i met the guy, and after that he was in love pretty much instantly, ..sent me poetry, filled with words of love etc, plans for future. He presented really well, apart from Premature Poetry which I reckon is a worry...heck, I am cute and great catch, and 2 know me is to love me...(smile), nevertheless I was not snowed. I asked The Question, "So what went wrong in your marriage?" He said his ex left , hid herself and the 2 kids, changed their names for 2&1/2 years! i heard warning bells...and lo and behold the bells warned me well.....your chat-ee sounds as if you also should be warned...and run don't walk....

Pretty straight forward. My first online dating profile.
Posted:
10/13/2009 5:44:29 PM
yep it's too long...some very cute bits though...but seems as though you have tried to say everything ...they can wait to find out more over time..nice photo..
Also, you can describe rather than say..for instance i said on my profile something like, "i like to wear red because it helps me rocknroll faster, and teal blue because it matches my eyes" and that gives a picture to reader...they know I am energetic, rocknroll, am creative, have teal blue eyes, begin to get a picture of how I dress....and it stands out because I am saying things in a different way. I get lots of responses. (mine is also a bit too long..i think a bit long is ok, as it says something also..but WAY too long, and oh dear, the girlies may lose interest while reading.)
I love sigur ros, and what about the Go betweens? and animal collective, and scott walker, interpol, augie march? hey look up blogsite http://jimsittin.wordpress.com/ and the related blogsites attached to this....you might enjoy those i think

try any books by Richard Flanagan..he's an australian journalist.
And I loved lots of the stories in "Birthday Stories" a collection with one story by Haruki Murakami, and other authors. I especially liked author Lynda Sexson, William Trevor.
Alexander McCall Smith is another author I really like. I heard him speak also and he was absolutely delightful. He was so excitable and enthusiastic!
"The Hours" by Michael Cunningham.
The madonnas of Leningrad" by Debra Dean, was great I thought.
I like author Chuck Pahlownik, too.
"platform" Michael Howellberg.
What about "the Jane Austin Book Club", sweet.
Margaret Attwood "the handmaid's tale."

have you ever had a manager so bad you dread any interaction with him/her. But you like the job or want /need to stay there. What inventive ways have you used to not only stay there, or deal with the boss, but actually be happier in the job?
