Be nice - Or stick to your criteria?
Posted:

I think the next time it happens, you should say things like this.......
You are extremely unattractive. Obviously i wont be wanting to be your girlfriend.
I'm sending you this message out of pity for your incredible ugliness, And just to give you that feeling of having something in your constantly arid inbox
And then you can ask them how they are, whats the weather like, are their kids as ugly as they are only in miniature...
All these things demonstrate a caring, compassionate yet honest side. And will help to avoid any delusions of grandeur they may possibly attain at having a message. And the chances of them then asking you for an intimate encounter will be significantly reduced.

What is meant by the 'left' and 'right'?
Posted:
11/17/2009 10:20:50 AM
Is it? You are probably in a better position than me to comment
I dont know whether i am or not. But i do know a lot about the Weimar constitution, and i do know it was set up on democratic principles.
"...and it was becoming obvious that he would never achieve power democratically."
"But Hitler wasted no time using his newfound powers to start eliminating his competition."
"In attempting to secure the votes, the Nazis made heavy use of terror..."
There is more included too, but the following link appears to be quite a reliable source...
http://www.huppi.com/kangaroo/L-hitlerdemo.htm
I'm sure its very reliable. But we're not debating about how good the democratic process in Germany was at the time, but whether there was a democratic process at all, which there was. Not a very good one, and Hitler exploited it extremely well. But it doesnt change the fact that it existed.
The above article demonstrates otherwise.
It demonstrates how poor it was, it isnt proof that it never existed
Would they not be the same thing
No, they're not the same thing. Upon release from prison, Hitler re-created the Nazi Party with himself as undisputed leader. Von Hindenburg offered him the Chancellorship from his position as the democratically elected head of state. Something clearly defined in the Weimar democratic constitution.
It doesn't sound too democratic to me.
Me neither, but the fact will always remain that it was.
"Still, they did not command the majority needed to elect Hitler Chancellor."
""Hitler came to office in 1933 as the result, not of any irresistible revolutionary or national movement sweeping him into power, nor even of a popular victory at the polls, but as part of a shoddy political deal with the 'Old Gang' whom he had been attacking for months."
It was still a democracy, a crap one absolutely, history clearly defines just how poor and open to abuse it was. But just because it was poor, doesnt then mean it never existed in the first place.

I find it happens quite a lot......
The first message i get always seems pretty great, then i reply. And then nothing!
I always figure they got a better offer somewhere else. Which is nice. I like to think that people are searching properly and will take the best offer (for them) they can get.
Then i go look at some porn and before i know it, another one pops up saying 'hello'

What is meant by the 'left' and 'right'?
Posted:

Hitler gained power through the democratic process
Which is correct.
I suggest whoever wrote this actually reads their history books properly.
Ever heard of The Night of the Long Knives?
Dear oh dear.
Sometimes the things posted on this place actually scare me
Looks to me that whoever wrote this has read his history books.
Read about the Weimar constitution, it's a democratic constitution, the residing president (voted for by the people) has power to select the Chancellor. Hitler was offered the Chancellorship by the then president Von Hindenburg.......Ergo, it was indeed democratic
Or are we talking about his rise to power within the Nazi party itself? Maybe it's better to ask the poster who claimed it to which power he was referring.....My bet its the power over Germany as opposed to power within the Nazi party.
That's a good shout. I do not know a great deal about history and/or politics, hence I did not counter the remark, but after doing a little bit of research you're right, he certainly did not gain power of The Nazi's through a democratic process
Pseudo.....
What power are you referring to? It seems some are confused by this.
Hitler became President after "Night of the Long Knives". Therefore, the poster was right to say that Hitler did come to power through a democratic process, which you even support when stating..
True, it was after "night of the long knives" But he didnt declare himself president on the strength of this........Read about the death of Von Hindenburg.
He was not even selected as Chancellor via a democratic process either, so where and when did Hitler gain legitimate authority like your earlier claim states?
Correct, he wasnt selected Chancellor via a democratic process. He was offered it as part of THE democratic process........Read some things about why democracy is good, but it would be silly to have everyone vote on every single issue every single time.
There is nothing better than watching a poster move the goalposts when his/her claims have been proved to be inaccurate
Until Pseudo clarifies to which 'power' he was alluding to, there is no way of telling if his claims are inaccurate or not. If he was alluding to his Chancellorship, then everything Pseudo has said on the matter is 100% correct..

driving

Automatics are fine, with the various jobs i've had over the years, i've not driven a tremendous amount of them, but certainly enough to form a solid personal opinion.
As a learner though, i'd never personally recommend anyone aim solely for an auto license.
Some people, though very competent drivers just cant get to grips with a gearstick. If that really is you, then go for the auto. There's nothing to stop you going for the manual allowance as your confidence and experience grows.

Are mens lives complete with out a woman?
Posted:
11/8/2009 9:30:09 AM
I would like to know when you think that might possibly be? Because as time passes and the years roll on the few available women will become even fewer.
Lets hope so......
Actually Hunni, you reminded me of something.......And what i say is by no means set in stone as exactly what has happened to leave you feeling like this. But i do know of at least one case and i'm sure there are many more....
I have a Female friend, very appealing on the eye, and she currently resides between the age of 45 and 47 (never reveal a Ladies age)
In her 30's she wasnt interested in Men, she had children to raise and she preferred to do this alone........She had tons of offers over the years. And never took any Man up on it...
Yet now, she would love a relationship, her children are grown and she's wanting some Man love.....
Yet she finds all the local single Men have gotten so used to the single life, they wouldnt have it any other way and definitely are not interested in anything more than casual sex.....
So maybe you could try looking at the younger model? Early 30's perhaps? Before they get too set in their ways.....

Yes......
Women are smelly and annoying, And they pick their noses.
So we only date Women when we want to get depressed after having way too much fun tripping the light fantastic.
Sometimes i miss having the regular company of one, but not nearly enough to put up with the nose picking for too long (although you can get used to the smell after a while)

CSA Have Reared Their Ugly Head
Posted:
10/24/2009 6:02:58 PM
my self employed ex can't seem to agree to pay the £50 a week
I sympathise cupid......
These kinds of threads are always very ambiguous..........I must confess, during my previous life, when my daughter was still under the age of 18, 50 quid a week would have been an enormous dent in my weekly wage. But for some, that same 50 quid would have been a mere pinprick.
I've always paid what i considered to be a reasonable amount. During the course of her growing up, i'd even raised the amount myself, It was never an enormous amount per se....And probably only made a small dent in the cost of raising a child when you take into account all factors......
But i did always pay my way, supporting my child is something i never saw as a burden, she's my daughter!
I'd always tried my best to maintain a decent relationship with her Mother. I found her to be vindictive, annoying, spiteful and resentful........I took this on the chin, in my mind....emotional support will always outweigh financial support. In the mind of the CSA its always financial. And so it should be. They're trying to save the government money...............Our money!
They werent set up for a moral crusade to try and make absent parents be better, it was purely financial.
I received a bill around 10 years ago for 14,000 quid. It was then i knew that my daughters Mother hadnt declared what i was paying her to the state.
Where do i go from there? Do i insist my payment? Do i sit back while her Mother gets investigated for fraud (which could carry a jail sentence) Do i do all these things knowing that it will turn my own flesh and blood against me.
No.......
I've not seen her in 3 years. My poison dwarf of an ex has ensured this has happened. Because when she turned 16, i had an unfortunate accident which left me on incapacity benefit for 3 years and her blood sucking leech of a Mother lied her backside off and has landed me with a bill of well in excess of 30 grand.
Bitter? Yes i am. When my daughter explodes on me (possibly) with all her built up venom and anger at what she see's as my abandonment of her, i'll still be muggins who sits back and takes the blame for everything. Maybe i'll have finished my jail sentence by then for 'non-payment' and i can start rebuilding my life sad in the knowledge that my only child hates me, but happy in the knowledge that i always did the best i can...........It might not have been great, but it was always my best effort.
Ah well.........Theres always beer and Portsmouth Football Club to console myself with

CSA Have Reared Their Ugly Head
Posted:
10/24/2009 10:09:02 AM
Sounds like you're in the same boat as me pimp......
Basically............We're both screwed. Unless you can prove payment has been made we dont have a leg to stand on.....
If you can prove it, and she's been claiming full benefit entitlement, she'll be prosecuted for fraud.
The money wont go to her.........Always to the state.
When Women say their ex 'owes' them money, it's rarely the case. The state has already paid them by form of benefit. So in actuality their ex owes the state.
And they fully intend to get paid. Either by you because you cant prove it or by her because of her fraud.
The only way out is to either give up working and live on benefits for the rest of your life. Or go self employed and hide as much of your earnings as you can. If they start docking my wages, i fully intend on returning to self employment......I've always paid my way in life and for my daughter. No way in hell will i pay the same bill twice. I'd sooner go to jail.

A Woman who throws lots of Ann Summers parties would be appealing...
She would have access to lots of toys, which would come in handy if i run out of puff and get sleepy......The thought of extra sleep i find enticing.
Or maybe a small penis inspector.........Then she may see mine and think i was really big. And i would be able to strut around all day being smug.
A Lion tamer would turn me off. I would always have that worry she may get eaten someday. Then i would miss her, and i would be sad........Thoughts like these dont turn me on.

women who lie about being raped
Posted:
10/24/2009 9:51:04 AM
Proving someone lied about being raped is about as easy as proving they're telling the truth....
Should a proven liar get a similar sentence to what the alleged rapist had got if convicted?...........Absolutely yes!
Probably wont give the innocents any peace of mind though, their life will be in ruins anyway.

10/23/2009 6:35:52 AM
I do have an account, i rarely use it to be honest. Although i confess, in my desperate bid to be Mr. Popular the few times i do log on i accept every friend request without fail......
Half the people i have on there i barely (if at all) know or remember......I've just looked now, it's full of really, really interesting messages that have brought light into my previously mundane Friday afternoon......
I'm delighted to see that some chick i have vague memories of, is 'waiting for Mother' and she is really, really in Love with her 'special Man'
Thrilled to bits that i have discovered that Pete wants me to join his squad in 'band of heroes' (I have no idea who Pete is)
Am astounded yet humbled at Sandy having collected a special egg in 'hatchlings'
And lots of other stuff like this, from people i probably once knew at some point in my life.
I feel elated to see that many people i have as friends have managed great scores on bejeweled blitz.
My walk to work later will have an extra spring in it's step i'm sure....
I can revel in all my 'friends' reflected glory at all the amazing achivements they have attained today.......Because all i have to show for today is a rather long sleep and grabbing the milk off the doorstep.........
Like all social networking sites, it can be great. Although i cant help thinking that lots use it as little more than a tool for telling an uninterested World how brilliant and important they are.......
Actually, i think i'll add to mine that i am brilliant and important...........I'll do it right now........

The only things i like to keep private are relationships i've had with Women i've met via use of this site.
I dont know why, none of them have been unpleasant in any way, but i do like to keep it private.
Errrrrrr not that i'm any kind of Lothario mind you, i've only had 4 pof meetings that ever developed into any kind of romance. But my lips (and fingers) shall remain silent. Well, apart from this one chick...........Ooh no! Doesnt matter.......I met her somewhere different.......Crumbs was she a freak of nature..........

Pensions, new ideas?
Posted:
10/6/2009 11:43:43 PM
You will be dependent on the working population of the UK for your pension when your turn to retire comes around.
I'd always thought it was that way round, but i do wonder when i read how the government has "raped" the pension funds......
Surely there is no money there to start with? The government dont take our NI contributions and put it safely away for us for when we retire, whilst hoping we die before we use it all up.
Or do they? Or maybe they do it a little bit then decide they need a wage rise so spend it on themselves instead.......
I intend to just keep on working personally, and when i do become too unfit to work i shall sit in the pub, nursing my pint of mild and moan a lot about things
And when some other pensioner brags about going to Eastbourne for the weekend, i shall wish them well and hope they dont die of old age before they get the chance to enjoy the delights of errrrrr, well Eastbourne

the numerical imbalance of women and men causing problems on plenty of fish
Posted:
10/5/2009 10:38:00 PM
first of all there are far more women on here than men
I seriously doubt this, from my own observations, i would suggest that the ratio of Men to Women is in the region of 5 Men per 1 Woman. But for arguments sake, lets say you're right.....
this obviously swings things to the advantage of the ladies
Having more Women than Men would give the advantage to the Men, i cant see any logic in thinking the opposite would be true.....
The rest of your posts talks about looks and the old favourite.......Leagues!
It's been done to death, and we all pretty much agree every time that looks will almost always be important initially, no matter what League you may deem yourself to be in.
And i also agree, i imagine there are a lot of Men and Women who will suddenly disappear on you once a better offer appears on the horizon.
Yes it's a candy shop, yes we all like the best looking and best tasting candy...........But that doesnt mean that our final choice in candy will have a lasting flavour or be any good for us long term.
But that wont stop us looking for another exciting looking piece of candy to try when we're either dumped or get bored ourselves........Rinse and repeat (pausing only momentarily to have a jolly good moan about how unlucky we are along the way and how its never our fault)

Holocaust Deniers and Revisionists - EU to outlaw
Posted:
10/5/2009 2:42:19 PM
I dont like the idea myself. I prefer head on debate which directly tackles anyone trying to deny it ever happened or revise the figures. Imo its a battle very easily and always won (Nizkor Project)
No matter how ugly that voice, it deserves to be heard simply because revisionists and deniers truly believe they have valid points to make.
The fact that they're always shot down in flames doesnt mean that we should now create laws stopping them from carrying on with their flawed logic.

How important is it for our children to remember the holocaust
Posted:
10/3/2009 7:24:30 PM
But like so many elements of secondary state curriculum the objective is merely an introduction to the subject to provide students enough familiarity simply to make a choice about taking up further studies perhaps related to a career.
Which is of course absolutely correct. I'm no World authority, but i have studied 20th century conflict for the past 24 years. And i would only ever admit to having a small knowledge. I've mostly concentrated on WWII because not only is it within living memory for many of us, the aftermath is within living memory for all of us! But i digress.....
You hit on some good points vanaheim.....
But i feel school curriculum history would be better served concentrating on the 20th century than discovering how many wives Henry VIII had. For those with even the remotest bit of interest in history, teaching them things that are still relevant today is much more worthwhile. I'm sure there are plenty of teachers who can grasp a delivery of information without lending the subject bias, whatever their political persuasion. If Thames Television can do it (The World At War) Then i'm sure history teachers can also manage this feat.
I also agree, its not a natural event in German history. When a country (especially an apparently civilised one) decides to adopt democracy, you're not expecting total War under a dictatorship with an extremely warped ideology from that same country 20 years later.
I know many people knock wikipedia, it isnt always a 100% accurate form of information, but their page on the holocaust is just about right imo.......
For further reading i would suggest
Raul Hilberg
Richard Evans
Martin Gilbert
For a decent breakdown of how the Nazi party came to be and up until its final demise i'd go for William Shirer "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich" It's a monster of a book, but well worth the read (imo of course)

How important is it for our children to remember the holocaust
Posted:
10/3/2009 2:58:16 PM
You talk of the holocaust as if only Jews were killed
Some Historians will use the number of Jewish exterminated, some like to use the total amount which would include (among other groups) Soviet Pow's. The key here is to note what figure a historian is 'quoting'
People from all over eastern Europe were killed and those with disabilities
Anybody who has given WWII more than a cursory look is fully aware that not only Jews were exterminated. I dont know why people keep mentioning this on this thread as if it's brand new information that people were previously unaware of.
However the numbers were nowhere near as many as what Stalin killed
Stalin wasnt offered power, Russia wasnt a democratic state. And this is, after all, about the holocaust. If you want to talk about other mass murders, start a new thread.
however Stalin was on the victorious side so that is swept away
I dont know anyone who has ever swept away what Stalin did to his 'people' Do you have sources for this 'sweeping away' stuff?
As efficient as Hitler was at getting his party and people to fulfill their tasks whether it be building weapons and motorways(Invented in Germany as a way to transport tanks quicker) or whether to kill people. It is totally impossible that they could have killed enough Jews, Czech, Poles, Austrians(who defied Hitler's policy of Lebensraum 'living space'), non-aryans and whoever else in the period that the killing began.
It isnt totally impossible, and we know this because it happened.
Tot ry and justify the numbers, many historians try to claim that the killing started as far back as 1925 and Hitler just carried it on.
Without wishing to sound rude, can i see links to Historians claiming this?
However this arguement is now rejected by many holocaust historians.
Rightly so, sounds like complete crap to me as well.
The systematic killing of prisoners began in late 1942 and finished early 1945.
The final solution began in 1942. You seem to be forgetting that there was plenty of killing going on before that
So in three years the Nazi party killed over 20 million people.
Source for this figure?
The last figure I was taught was 9million killed
9 million what? Jews? Or is this a total of all killings
that number is now reported as 12million jews killed
Source? Not seen a figure as high as this myself, i'd love to see who quoted this.
By this number alone, the Jewish population in Europe would of been totally wiped out as only 8,861,00 Jews lived in Europe
Here's the kicker. I've not seen who's quoted a figure of 12 million Jews. But i'll take a punt and say they also insist that there were more than 8,861,000 Jews living in Europe. Otherwise its a silly figure to quote isnt it? Would be like me saying "you see those 10 people over there.........i've just killed 11 of them.
So unless every single Jew in europe died in thecamps and none died of natural causes outside then there is still a 4million population jumped.
Even rabbits with premature ejaculation dont **** that fast.
It is generally recognised that there were around 8.9 million Jews living in Europe, i would reject any historian claiming 12 million on that basis alone. But then again, i've never seen this number quoted which is why i would love a source.
A report in 1992 showed these figues for those killed(at a maximum).
Jews - 5.9million
Soviets- 3 million
Ethnic Poles - 1.8million
Romani Gypsies - 1.5million
Disabled - 250,000
Gays - 15,000
Jehovah's Witnesses - 5,000
So the official figure in 1992 was that a grand total of 12,470,000 dead.
I'll leave you with that for now.
This includes non-Jewish people......
Is the whole of your argument based on these figures? Did you not notice at the top of the list it says "Jews"
The rest of the list is non-Jewish people.
These numbers have varied slightly over the years, i agree, but mainly due to new evidence appearing and of course, more dead bodies being found.

Well today we finally picked up our first points of the season....We really wasnt expecting it this side of Christmas.......
We're all dead excited down here, rumours that an open top bus tour of the City in celebration are abound. And hundreds of street parties throughout the PO postcode area are already underway.
It should be quite the social whirl
Still rock bottom and still well adrift.................But still in it

why do men go to prostitutes and women dont??
Posted:
10/2/2009 7:22:20 PM
Because Men need love and warmth and cuddles n stuff.
Women dont like doing this as much.
But some heroic Women will provide this service in exchange for cash..

So to sum up......
You invite some poor innocent, unassuming Man into your lair......
You then invite him onto what he thought was a normal common or garden sofa, but it is in actual fact your 'casting couch'
And then you assault him.
And this on the 2nd date!
And then you come on here and ask if anyone else goes round inviting members of the public into their homes and then assaulting them?

I tend to go with the 'blokes' and 'birds' thing.
Or going out with the 'lads' or the 'boys'
I suppose i've always seen myself as a 'lad' the only thing left for me now is when i become a grumpy old git, which is a lot closer to happening than i like to pretend.
Nowadays i see Men as Jedi Knights, and Women as Sith Lords from the dark side.
So i go out with my fellow 'Jedi's' and occasionally we come across a bunch of 'Sith' and tread very carefully in case they attack us with their light sabres, until they are safely out of our way.

It will be interesting to read more details when they are revealed. Anyone got a source for this case?
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/lancashire/8287460.stm
They couldnt merely caution her, because she didnt admit to doing anything wrong....Make of that what you will......This coming hot on the heels of the Lady killing herself and her disabled daughter, i can only hope that whoever wins the next general election makes a huge effort to tackle anti-social behaviour.
At least she had the guts to do what so many don't and that is to go out and confront the little shit.
While it would be great to see people confronting their antagonisers. On 5 live tonight, i was appalled to hear a 65 year old Man had been beat to death with a hammer.......The reason? He confronted a 17 year old youth who was behaving anti-socially. The 17 year old got a life sentence with recommendation he serve at least 9 years

Splash a bit of Old Spice all over...Rub a bacon rasher under my armpits and i'm good to go!!
Well, either Old Spice or a ton of Brut, both awesome!
During my cab driving days, one of the worst things to happen would be to have a bunch of chicks in the car heading off on a night out..
I think some of the marinate themselves in it for the day, only to leap out at the last minute, throw some clothes on, spray another couple of litres for good measure and then jump in the cab........Multiply that by 4 and i was coughing and spluttering, eyes stinging within seconds......And then one of them pipes up
"Ooh, dont get any of your germs on me Mr. Taxi driver"
Sometimes, the mind boggles

After an hour of searching.............I finally found my effin' keys!!!!
Now i can go out safe in the knowledge i wont have to kick the front door open just to get back indoors.
Someone convinced me recently that not all Women are the spawn of the devil. So i thought i'd try dating one again........
I must say, it's all going rather well so far. Although my pof time will drop massively, but that only affects myself, so my concern is minor

How important is it for our children to remember the holocaust
Posted:
10/1/2009 1:58:29 PM
"£1.5m national programme will train a teacher from every secondary school in England
Hundreds of schools across the country are to become specialist centres of Holocaust education under a national scheme launched today.
I'd love to say this is a step in the right direction, but i dont think it is.......
Are we to separate this from other crimes committed in WWII? If so, this is a mistake imo.
To fully understand why the holocaust ever happened, you have to examine those who perpetrated it. This is especially important given the fact that the Nazis rose to power in a supposed civilised, Western democracy.
It seems the British Government is intent on ensuring that the Holocaust is taught - which is one way to ensure it is remembered.
Its a step. I just dont think it's quite how we should be handling it.

How important is it for our children to remember the holocaust
Posted:
9/27/2009 11:39:31 PM
what a load of crock, i know nothing about a lot of things like say who scored the winning goal in the 1954 F A cup final but i am hardly likely to repeat it
Do i really need to dumb it down for you? Well it looks like i do. But i cant be bothered...
If anything it makes it worse - it villifies the victors and champions the cause - after all; war is always ok if it's in the name of a cause.
Depends what that cause is
Better yet ask how many gassed bodies were autopsied?
Is that using the well known medical procedure of performing an autopsy on a pile of ashes?
Your kidding they still push that 6 million myth ?
Thousands upon thousands of eye witness' hundreds upon hundreds of camps strewn all over Eastern Europe. Full and documented evidence that suggests a ton of mass murder was going on........All adds up to what we call Holocaust. Thats not forgetting even more obvious facts such as a community missing around 6 million of its people and senior Nazi's actually admitting that it happened.
Or did we just make it up for a laugh? Thats an awful lot of people making things up. And if they did make it up, where are they all? It's not an easy task to hide 6 million people, you're gonna need a pretty big loft. Or did they all just die of natural causes? Which seems a bit odd to me. There's a World War going on, and 6 million jews die of natural cause.
There is no proof what so ever of how many Jews were put to death in auschwitz. If, as the Jews claim there were over 5 million jew murdered by the germans, well I find that figure hard to believe. Doing the maths, that is over 10,000 a week. The germans did not have the resources to accomodate and kill that many people.
Seeing as the figures are so massive, historians can only estimate. But this is also a very educated guess, they dont just pluck a number out of thin air and think "yes, this will do, it's lunchtime and i'm tired of researching now, lets say 1.3 million and call it a day"
Actually, the Germans really did have the resources to kill that many people. And a ton of evidence was found to prove it when the Nazi's were pushed back during 1944 and '45.
Himmler speech 1944
"The Jewish question in Germany and the occupied countries has been solved."
So where are they all? They either resettled them somewhere, or they killed them. We know they werent resettled. Otherwise we would have stumbled upon them by now. Unless they're all still in hiding. My, my, i'd hate to play hide n seek with that lot!
we seems to be constantly reminded of this fact and there are other people that also died in terrible circumstances during the wars of the 20th century.....lets not forget the terrible treatment that POW's were subjected to by the Japanese and later on in Vietnam.
Or the 14 million Russian civilians.
Maybe we do concentrate on the holocaust to the detriment of other sufferings of WWII. I wouldnt personally just teach about the holocaust of WWII, you have to take the subject as a whole. Selective teaching is never the way forward. You would also have to teach about our own War crimes, what drove us as a nation to purposely murder innocent civilians? But that's a whole 'nother thread.....

Men searching for single mum's
Posted:
9/24/2009 7:11:30 AM
I cant see me rushing to subscribe
If a Woman had young children, thats wonderful. But not something i would actively seek, and i certainly wouldnt give preference to those with kids.
I've dated a few single Mums over the years. My experience tells me, that not only are her children first.......They're also 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th. I generally ranked somewhere below her car and just above a pedicure (or was it the other way round? Actually, now i think of it, i was lower than both)
I'm sure that Men looking for Women with children do it for a multitude of honest reasons. Inability to Father their own, they may have young children themselves from previous relationships. They may just like the idea of a ready made family unit without having to actually make their own.
Edit
I effectively became her father, she even started to call me dad. I don't see her anymore, which is such a real shame for her as well as me. Her mother cheated on me, and has moved quite some distance away. If i could, I would take her to court over access. Sadly though, with me not being the natural father I don't have a leg to stand on.
I hear ya Colin. Been in a very similar situation myself

Old people driving.
Posted:
9/22/2009 2:29:49 PM
I dont think this is a thread about young drivers?
Personally, i think the age limit for driving should be raised to 21 (at least)
How many times do we pass lamp-posts or trees strewn with flowers in memoriam of some boy racer in his souped up mean machine who thought his driving was really good and he simply 'must' show off his excellence at every opportunity. And he kills not only himself, but all of his passengers and anyone unfortunate enough to have been in the way.
There is no excuse, bad driving is bad driving whatever the age.
This week alone.
I have nearly been ploughed into from the side on a roundabout by a 20 something Woman, who simply did not see that someone was actually on the roundabout.
I've witnessed a Male driver (in his 40's) hogging the outside lane of a motorway, while both other lanes were completely clear of traffic.......He was doing 55mph.
I've seen a 'little old Lady' career across 3 lanes of traffic narrowly avoiding causing a multi-car pile up. It bothers me somewhat all this 'mirror, signal, manoeuvre' stuff.........Some people take it way too literally......Just because you have mirrored and signalled, that doesnt then mean you can make your manouvre regardless of what is in your way.
And i've had a boy racer screaming up behind me on a single lane road, headlights on main beam, and get so close i couldnt actually see his lights at all. In fact, i get this one practically daily.
Ooh! And tonight I witnessed a Woman pulling away from traffic lights, she clearly wasnt too sure of the road layout because she then bumped up the kerb and proceeded to drive along the central reservation until finally she realised something was wrong, so she eventually rejoined the actual road.
I dont even mind the last one so much, that seemed to me to be more like a genuine mistake. We all make those, we just hope we dont kill anyone when we make them.....

Smoking!
Posted:
9/22/2009 2:12:36 PM
Being a smoker myself i much prefer to date someone who smokes (NSS)
It hides a multitude of sins on our breath. I've dated non-smokers, and i really dislike kissing someone who's breath reeks of stale (whatever it is they last ate) Even when they've brushed their teeth! All its doing is giving their stale 'last meal breath' a minty tinge. And as for morning breath..........yuk!
Smokers may not have the greatest smelling breath ever, but it's better than a non-smokers breath by a country mile.
IMO of course
As long as a smoker takes good care of their personal hygiene and changes clothes regularly. Then i'm a happy bunny.....

Male/Female Roles - Can You Deal With Change?
Posted:
9/21/2009 1:12:50 AM
Well SSBBW i think you've hit a pretty good point there......
While i personally think it's great that we have a lot more equality in our World.
Part of me is sad that being a Mum/Housewife or whatever you want to call it isnt quite the same these days. Because i think it's probably the hardest, yet most wonderful life choice a Woman could make
I look at my Mum, a remarkable Woman, who didnt need a 'career' she didnt need or want 'childminders' she never needed 'after school clubs' and neither did she need maternity leave......
She wanted to be there when my brother and i went through our pre-school years. She wanted to be there when we left for school in the morning and she wanted to be there when we got home from school in the afternoon. She took a part time job in the school kitchens, which was her money and hers alone to spend on any treat she wanted...
She was the glue that held our family together, she was strong, yet delicate, she never felt undervalued or second class and she knew that between her and my Father, she would almost always get her way.
As for my Father, he worked hard, it's true he actually earnt the 'cash' but he always appreciated that it was my Mother who was the real 'earner' in our family. He loved and respected her and in many ways he treated her as more than his equal. He was the protector and the disciplinarian. But he was always guided by what my Mum told him....
Good luck to everyone, whatever path they choose in life, whatever kind of family unit they want...........
But for me personally, if someone offered me a relationship similar to the one my parents had, I'd grab it with both hands and say thank you very much
Well................Maybe not now, i'm a bit too old to start that baby making malarkey all over again.........But never say never
Actually...........i'll be 40 soon........I'll say never

Selection strategies
Posted:
9/21/2009 12:42:48 AM
-Do I just want to have my cake AND eat it, am I expecting too much, or is it a reasonable want?
Why would you want cake and not eat it? Cake looks great, but it only looks great because we know that it's gonna taste great when we put it in our mouths. Sounds to me like you found these Men a touch boring, maybe a bit harsh seeing as it's only the first meet, but you're entitled to want at least a bit of spark.......
-Also, what do you look for in profiles that make you think a person is or isn't your type?
1) Is she shaggable, the first thing i see is the pic, so i may as well click on something that may possibly look good wearing a Pompey top, lounging on my bed and saying "come here big boy"
2) Is the profile amusing to me.......This is very important. I like amusing people.....
3) Does it contain even a hint of emotional turmoil? This would make me sad and reach for my running shoes.
4) Does it say things like "Genuine Men only" or "No liars" or "No pervs" or "Looks dont matter to me" or "No players" or "Ask me"...........and lots of things like this.....This tends to also make me reach for my running shoes, i dont want to spend weeks attempting to prove i am none of the above.
5) Does it have the lines "My kids are my life" and "they will always come first" .........Again, running shoes. I prefer this to be something nobody would have to express. It's a bit like saying "I like breathing air so that i dont die". I've not read a profile where she states "I really dislike my children, i wonder how much i can get for them on ebay" This would take me immediately to point 2 above.
6) And finally. I get to the end of my selection process, and i'm generally left with quite a lot of Women........And it's then i make my move.
And my move is to do absolutely nothing. Because experience tells me that they're the ones who turn out to be the worst of all.....Well probably not, but i'm just lazy...

The film was great as well.......Certainly in my top 10 of all time.
I dont think i'd personally go back and change anything. It might possibly lead to me not being the fine, upstanding pillar of the community i am today.....(yes really......well maybe not quite...But very nearly! Honest guv)
Would be interesting to go back so i could avoid some of the Women who make up a large part of my history. I reckon it would have made my life much more enjoyable, but then again, it could make things a lot worse, so maybe, let sleeping dogs lie (literally)

Mature Ladies?
Posted:
9/18/2009 3:33:32 AM
Hmmmmmm now how would i define a Mature Lady...
I would take a Lady (any common or garden Lady will do) And very carefully wrap her in muslin for a year. Allowing her to breathe of course.....
Then i would unwrap her to find her skin had developed into a beautiful rind, which rids me of that horribly boring, flawless skin of previous years. And she will also have developed her own unique taste, which can be a wonderful thing for the correct palate.
On the downside, she may also have a bit of a funny smell, but nothing a hot bath couldnt fix i'm sure....
And there you have it.........1 Mature Woman.
