mens fobias Posted: 9/25/2007 4:37:27 AM
Hi Op, From reading this from start to finish, it is a little perculiar to say the least. If he has been dependent on his family (not neccesarily financial but emotionally) for so long he as you put it could be fighting his feelings for you. I think that he is very scared at the prospect and potentially looking at the negative side of things, especially if he feels so strongly for you. It sounds as though he may have a confidence issue and needs reassurance from not only you but also his family. if you are 'loud' as you have put it, maybe he is anxious of what his parents may think of you? Maybe you guys need to go for a walk and a chat away from both of your houses to somewhere neutral and lay it all out?? Best of luck for you ! Dean

How can you get a man interested in you without sex? Posted: 9/24/2007 5:20:40 AM
Hi OP, While sex is an important part of a relationship, it is certainley not the govening body as to the start of a 'relationship' Surley the courting is all about finding out about each other and being mentally stimulated through conversation? This will then lead into the 'relationship'. I would question the man if he looses interest because you state that you are not ready to be so intimate yet. There are men out there who are also looking for what you are looking for and would actually prefer to wait until you are both completley happy with the way things are going. if all else fails.. start talking about football! best of luck

A question for the men!!! Posted: 7/20/2007 5:42:26 AM

Do you think this is creepy? Posted: 7/13/2007 3:35:32 AM
Op, I kinda agree from where you are coming from.. I would see it is a big of red flag if they wanted to phone / meet straight away. It is irrelevant of what they have stated as there main reasons are for being on here.. I personally prefer to get to know somebody before exchanging more personal information. such as work email (as it is not always easy to be on line!) or telephone numbers. I would be more inclined to say that i would prefer to exchange email alittle bit first.. although i believe that you cannot get the tone via email but that is why we use punctuation marks and smily faces and exclamation marks..

Has anyone found happiness on here?? Posted: 7/11/2007 5:28:42 AM
Okay.. so i am going to be the only one that says that YES! i have found happiness on here.. he was hidding behind dopey and doc... no but seriously, i have really found this site exciting and mysterious and yes.. at times a little frustrated. The feeling of recieving a new email.. or even recieving a response from an email that you sent.. surley that has put a smile on your face.. I have also recently started to date a girl on here.. and that brings me the biggest smile every morning and night.. and things are great! Okay, i have not got my head in the clouds.. and if this lasts for another 7 days, 7 weeks, 7 months , 7 years.....even 7 decades.. i will always be able to say thank you POF.. for giving me the oppurtunity to find somebody.. and especially as we speak for finding her! Okay, so i have been lucky some might say.... but luck favours the brave.. Enjoy yourselves and take a chance once in awhile..!!!! Happy Fishing All...

How long should a woman wait for a man to make a commitment? Posted: 7/11/2007 5:17:15 AM
Hi Bambi, Quick question.. how do you mean a lasting relationship serious?? do you mean moving in together or getting married? Kids? I dont think that you can put a time on it. Some people are together for years and years and do not get married as they see it as being ' commerical' or 'just a piece of paper' After 2 years you guys are still getting to know each other.. enjoy it! You might find that having this time period may in actually fact hinder the longevity of the relationship. To much pressure may make the guy run. With regards to 'wasting' years of your life, i would say that you are not with the right person. Even if it ends after 2 years or 10 years you should be able to look back and say ' hell, we had a great time!' If you put all the energy into pursuing the paperwork you may not be saving enough to actually have the one thing that you want.. a relationship! I hope things certainley work out for you..

forgive or move on? Posted: 7/10/2007 7:47:24 AM
okay.. i am going to play devils advocate here.. so before i start i am not saying that anyone is right or wr0ng.. just coming from a different perspective..... Okay, so you like this guy who it is not going to work with.. for whatever reason .. your friend.. who also likes the man.. is not allowed to approach him, even if they are compatible and can make their lives happy , to save your gracies, even though your are never going to be able to be with him?? Now i would see that from the otherside and think because you cant have him, nobody can... Like I say, I am just playing devils advocate as my friend is currently going through this exact situation... It is not fair on the person in them middle. What about their thoughts and feelings? has this not been accounted for?? Before one can make a definative decision, i think it would be best to sit down, as adults, and see what everybody would like...

Hi Nikki, I think the profile is fine, however it doesn't have any va-va-voom in it so to speak.. you have been quite general in your interest and also in the type of person you are looking for. I think give it some of your personality into it and i am sure you will do fine! Happy Fishing!!!

Hi Fab- Mom Read through your profile. I will be honest, however please bear in mind this is just my opinion... Okay, lets start with the piccies.. think they are great, however would maybe use the picture of you and the babe.. think that is FANTASTIC! First line.. Well to be honest. I found it very scary.. Perhaps a little bit tooo honest! I know that there is a hint of humour in there but.. Whey! :0) Perhaps state that you are not looking for short term relationships, so any players or serial daters please move on to the next profile I do like your honesty and think that is great but really be positive in what you are all about and what you are looking for. I don’t think the reason for not cooking is really necessary, but again my thoughts!! :0) I wish you all the success and happy fishing!!!

5 Irish Men.... Posted: 6/26/2007 6:36:27 AM
5 Irish men are sitting in pub ~ Murphy, Paddy, O'Driscoll, O'Callaghan and Seamus. Murphy says ' hey guys, what do you think is the quickest thing in the world? Paddy says – ‘ That’s easy. Its gotta be a blink!’ ‘A blink?’ O Callaghan says ‘ey, a blink, look at how quick this is’ (paddy blinks) ‘bloody ‘ell that is quick’ says O’Driscoll but not as quick as a thought! Look im having one now and you didn’t even see it!!’ ‘Your talking shite!’ Says Seamus ‘ the quickest thing in this world is electricity!’ ‘look you press the button here and blow me down if the light doesn’t turn on like that over there! Now that’s bloody quick!’ Murphy shouts out ‘you’re all talking absolute boxxocks!!! The quickest thing in this world’s diarrhea!’ ‘Diarrhea?’ shouts out Seamus ‘Ey, Diarrhea… before you blink, before you think before you put the light on you’ve shat yourself!!!’

Eating your cake Posted: 6/26/2007 6:19:58 AM
Okay soo you really wanna know.. Mr statto.... The original version was "you cannot eat your cake and have it too." John Heywood's Proverbs had that version back in 1584, which means that if it was published then, it was around for even longer than that. Incidentally, Heywood published it as "Wolde you bothe eate your cake, and haue your cake?" however, the latest version of you cant have your cake and eat it has slightly evolved over the last 3 millenia to make absolutley no sense at all... Still... everyones a fruit and nut cake!

Emmy, Your profile is not in the lease bit awkward and i think that you could not be any clearer in what you are (or not) looking for! It is detailed yet concise which is a first! Best of luck!

Can someone review my profile? Cheers! Posted: 6/20/2007 3:48:30 AM
Hi Dawezy.. Okay, this is just my opinion but if you take 1 thing from it great! I think in general your profile is quite generic. You should say more about who you are as an individual, what you specifically like and what you are specifically looking for in a girl / lady. Dont worry about the rate my pics.. it is just a bit of fun and your right getting a low score can be damning but shrugg it off - it means nothing.. Well best of luck!!! Dean

Dating for 1month & he's still checking other profiles online. Continue seeing him? or Is it a sign? Posted: 6/14/2007 5:44:53 AM
Well one certainly did open pandora's .. what is it again..? Sorry OP, I can give you a male perspective. I always like to see the best in people and i will through something of a spin on this. Okay, so you guys met on a dating website, cool. Now was he the first person who you spoke to and then agreed to go on a date with? Maybe he is on line but chatting to people who he has befriended. it could be all innocent and if you like this guy, you could ultimately push him away. It is way early days, however i would ask the question about the relationship. I personally believe that 'dating' means that you are courting one person, however from various threads etc people have different perspectives on the term dating. I would ask about the exclusiveness and see what happens. It is way early days to be putting pressure on. If you do ask the question, and it is not the answer you would like to hear, you will have to ask yourself if you are strong enough to continue with the knowledge that he could be out to dinner with somebody else. Good Luck and hope you do get the answer you are looking for.. Dean

Still waiting Posted: 6/14/2007 5:35:45 AM
Hi Real, Firstly, sorry to hear about your mum. I dont think that there is any defined time, I similar to you, have been broken up with my ex for nearly 2 years now. Have I totally gotten over her, i would answer yes. However that does not stop me from thinking of her every now and again. Silly things may bring out those memories that you have hidden in your subconcious. I think i would be more worried if you didnt think about him. You shared 2 years of your life together. It can be hard when you are single because you may reminise about the times that you had and from there on your mind does wonder. When you meet somebody new who invigorates you, those memories will be pushed further back into your subconcious being replaced with new memories from a new beau. Take Care Dean

Review my Profile. Posted: 6/13/2007 2:09:18 AM
Hi TJ, Read through your profile. It is really good to be stating what your interests are and your passion for your children and your religion. If that is scaring some of the people away, well thats surely a good thing ? You want to meet like minded people who share your passion(s). Couple of things that i think could possibly improve the profile, although only minor points. Perhaps put some humour into your profile, maybe a funny story while camping with your kids etc? Also, the pictures are excellent of you enjoying the trip with your kids (assumption made) but it would be good to get a picture up of you a little closer as the only pic which shows your profile is at a distance and slightly blurred. All said and done, good luck! Dean

On a date, who makes the first move? Posted: 6/12/2007 4:20:28 AM
Hi Jenny, Have you had any body language from him? Maybe is saying exactly the same thing to his friends. I am also very cautious and sometimes give of a negative vibe when it is actually me trying to be the perfect gent or afraid that i am making the wrong move. Perhaps next time you are out, be a little flirtatious by every now and again touching his arm or leg when you are talking to him. Complement him with your language such as after he tells a really bad joke, laugh and say something along the lines of ' I think your great, dime bar! or something like that. If you do not feel comfortable doing that face to face perhaps do it via email when you chat. This may give you an indication of what he thinks and visa versa... Just an idea that may help - best of luck though! Dean

Throw some more darts at my profile please Posted: 6/7/2007 3:04:49 AM
Hi Arkr, Just read your profile.. Boy is it long! Quick pointer.. I think that it is way to long and looks like a CV rather than a profile however, it is clear that you are incredibly intellegent. I would potentially shorten the working experiences and concentrate more on what you as an individual are looking for. I notice you only have 2 lines based on what you are looking for in a women. Perhaps put some humour into the profile it appears alittle serious? The pictures great and hope you do well. Please bear in mind this is only my thoughts.. ladies may have a different approach! Best of luck

How much time to you really have/want? Posted: 6/7/2007 2:13:17 AM
totally agree with the special time away from the norm.. however it is ensuring that what you do with that time is the key factor. 30 minute walk alongside the canal on a beautiful sunny day can be just as exhilorating as a 3 hour meal in a restraunt..

30 and never married? Posted: 6/7/2007 2:01:50 AM
Yep, here's another! No Kids, and i would like to say that it is because of work and career but i cannot. I just simply have not found the right person. And the strange thing is that once you start to get into the late 20's nightclubs become so much clearer that pretty much everybody in there is totally wasted and not really a great place to meet!

What should I do now? Posted: 6/7/2007 1:46:20 AM
Alternatively, contact your cell provider and they can restrict the number, i know that in England the handsets can be programmed to refuse the call. This way, you would not even know that he had called. I think that he is really winding you up because he in fact is not having a great time, he is still wanting your attention. Be strong.. it will not be easy at the start but you seem like a great girl and I do not think it will be long before you find the person that will treat you as though you are the most precious thing on this earth.. Good luck!

Totally agree.. young people.. even worse is when you are watching the news and it is like the 20th year annervisary of the berlin wall coming back.. I rememgber watching that live.. is it really 20 years ago??? Also, now that R&B is coming back into the lime light they are covering so many great songs.. but we actually remember them for the original!

How much time to you really have/want? Posted: 6/6/2007 6:38:28 AM
This is something that you cannot quantify. It is definatley down to the two parties. We you are having fun 5 hours can seem like 30 mins and equally when things are not going well 30 mins can seem like 5 hours. I suppose it is about understanding what you both want, no need out of the relationship. Again this can change day by day week on week. I suppose.. its a case of going with flow! Best of luck!
