Singledom

Or just take a chance with one of 'em. It is a traditionally male role to make the first move.

i doubt Darren needs rohypnol. After all, he has levitation powers and a giant inflatable phallus that tastes of apples.

It might be because I've been drinking all day but I just fell off me chair laughing at that. Where the f*ck did that come from?!

Cool, that's the fourth time Stu has used a at me; still, i'm full of surprises like that.

What does everybody think of singles/dating websites? For saddos or just another way to make a connection and meet new people? I'm half-considering it tbh and want to garner some further opinion.

Just another way to meet people.
I think you have to realistically think about your opportunities for meeting people, for me the only place I go is to work, or to see people I already know. Now I'm getting involved with someone from work... which may not be the best idea!

Plus, it's an easy way to cut through the superficial stuff and really see what they're like.

That's excatly it, the only people I see really is people at work and my existing friends who are, largely, male and I've got "involved" with the only 2 nice girls at work already and that's not turned out so well. I don't think it's even a big deal anymore, may as well give it a go. Ta, peeps.

That means nothing without elaboration, J-Dogg.

I just watched (500) Days Of Summer. It has made me very sad

Mate, it made every single man in the world sad.

It hits you right in the balls in terms of emotion, bang on rightness and applicableness to situations.

Remember the Dylan Moran routine that ends "...that's how women feel about shoes."?

Note to self - "you miss 100% of the shots you don't take" does not apply when the shot in question is RETARDED. Argh. I p*ssed so many people off last night, this is Amy and Alice's fault for getting me drunk by 5pm.

You tried it on with a retarded girl?

Quick loser update:

* The 19 year-old seems to want me again but her mood changes with the wind so I won't read too much into that. I'm thinking she may just want sex tbh as she distances herself from relationship stuff but still is clearly interested.

* Joined a couple of singles sites and have started to semi-regularly contact a few girls but nothing really major happening at this stage. It's weird because it doesn't seem real with these girls online at all, maybe I should take things there a bit more seriously.

* I'm still extremely close with nice girl at work and there's clearly a lot of chemistry but the fact we constantly chat to each other but our other 'love' interests and give each other advice etc probably isn't a good thing as she clearly sees me as a friend, albeit one she likes getting off with when we go out but meh.

She could be trying to see if you get jealous to see how much you like her.

We ladies do that sort of thing.

See also, pretending to be convinced you're gay.

If the first thing you said there is true then she must think I really can't be arsed as I've not given my burning jealousy away one little bit, which I was quite proud of until you said that. Infact, like the a*s I am I've actually given her genuinaly good advice about what she should do rather than scupper her plans with subtley bad advice. I think people only get ahead in life when they're c*nts tbh.


Also, she does joke I'm gay all the time, largely because of my sometimes gay eccentricities, but she is aware I'm not.

Next time, if she notices someone hot/ says she fancies someone, pretend to get offended and say something like "but what's wrong with me?" and pretend go off in a huff.

Or, what you could do (this worked for me), is text her next time you're drunk (well, moreso tipsy) on a night out, telling her you have a secret crush but you don't know what to do/ whether this person likes you or not. Then you can probably find out whether she is interested in anyone and turn the tables and see if she gets jealous.

And the good thing is, you can pass it all off as being drunk. Teehee. Just make sure your texts can be read



Hehe. Girls like to be seen to be found attractive, so any compliments can't hurt (though don't go overboard because otherwise that's just bloody creepy!)

The female brain is an amazing and complex thing. Can I employ you as my personal relationship adviser please? I would literally pay for your help.

Quote: Toodles, Mar 2010

I still don't understand why you're so incredibly eager to get into another relationship so quickly.
*prys*

It turns out I'm sh*t single. I'm really fickle though too, sometimes I really crave companionship, sometimes I'm quite happy having the freedom.

Plus, the main girl in question at work really is amazing, I think, overall, I just want her and quite like the attention this younger girl sporadically gives me.

So that explains two, but what about the e-dating?

The sh*t being single bit explains that i think. I do want to start something new overall because I miss the closeness you get in a relationship, but as I say, it's worse some times than others. I'm quite annoying, aren't I?

No, we just have very similar circumstances with very different outcomes.
Enjoy being alone for a bit is my advice. Learn some new things about yourself and time will work its magic.
It's all well and good to perform some epic search, but you're more likely to find the RIGHT person when you aren't looking.

I dunno, I think there's a strong argument for you increasing your odds of meeting someone nice if you meet new people and put yourself out there, not necessarily pimping yourself or anything, just casting the metaphorical net a little wider.
Each to their own though, I'm probably surpressing all sorts of nasty psychological sh*t, so you'll probably end up with less cats than me.

The basic thing you need to remember when females are involved is this: if there is any possible way that an insult can be read into your comment, don't say it. It's an insult.

I think your best bet is to get every female on VR to combine our knowledge and then we can snag you a woman. It's hunting, isn't it?

Oi, get me one first, I've been single longer.

Pulled on Friday for the first time in ages, a direct result of which was getting punched in the face by another girl. Fun night
