well, just so you know you're not the only one Paul, Jen and others.........I went out with a guy who asked me, worked in office next door - sort of knew and spoke to him for a couple of years so thought he was ok. He asked me out after all!!! Quiet but nice guy, sent me the biggest bouquet of flowers for my birthday and we'd not long been seeing each other. Saw each other for a couple of months - once, twice a week only as he lived in Manchester, so when it was his birthday I bought him a Man U shirt (kept it quiet as my lot all Chelsea fans!!) He couldnt get away quick enough - didnt contact me for 4 days after so I sent him a message asking if he was ok. The reply? "presents mean control and ownership" and I dont want that!!??? I was shocked - in my family birthday presents just mean "happy birthday"!!! he obviously had serious issues about relationships/women - on explanation. Also told me to keep in touch with him but when I called or emailed (which wasnt that often for fear of being thought of as a stalker or bunny boiler!!) he said he was disappointed to see that I had done so!!?? After hearing nothing for 8 weeks after what I thought was a lovely evening, he text me out of the blue and asked me out again. Now, being a lady, didnt want to be too rude and dont believe in hurting ppl unnecessarily but lets just say I told him a thing or two about his behaviour!! He's still in office next door, in fact was there today, trying not to look out when I walked by...........my consolation is that I found out about his weird behaviour sooner rather than later and ultimately its his loss not mine!!! Shame tho, I really liked him thought he was ok, and his grown up kids were great just like mine - we all liked and got on great together when we met, it was just their dad that had the problem!!! Oh, well, move on and dont look back ........................only way

Storm, she was a Gemini...how did you guess?
As for throwing cash at the girl; I meant every time I went around I would take a bottle of her favourite drink or a box of chocolates, and take her out for meals on the weekends I stayed over (Read trying to be thoughtful).
I suppose I should have know better as I had joined a large online dating agency (The one which advertises on TV) some months ago, so far I have been astounded by the number of strange people with major problems that I have met (Makes me wonder if a viable business plan would be to start an online shrinking website so that people could offload their problems?). The worst was when I was locked in a womans house and couldn't get out and had to stay the night, didn't sleep much with one eye open.
Think I should get my lame ass out some nights and get chatting to people and find someone the old fashioned way. Although I find time a bit difficult to come by what with work and weight training, the few days I have 'off' every other weekend I like to spend with my iron steed - it excites me, humours me, entertains my intellect but best of all never argues or lets me down! Oh and it's cheaper too...recent service and two new tyres £391 - try and run a girlfriend on that amount ;o)
Hey I'm still looking for riding buddies, anyone out there close to Maidenhead next weekend?
i was sick of my wife's mood swings so being thoughtful i bought her a mood ring so when it was green i knew she was in a good mood but when it turned blue it left a great big red mark on my forehead next time she said perhaps you'll buy me a diamond he he...i think my wife was supposed to be blonde she left me for an older model shes always been impatient though ,she just couldnt wait till i grew up,oh well ive got a roof over me head and my lad lives with me so i just get on with it ...
hi my partner dumped me coz i put my bike parts in the shed and not my new tools the lil left and took my cycle keys with her and that made me heart broken if u like the sound of me ladies send me a wink emial me
Aaaaawwww, lets get this in perspective all - tarring everyone with same brush no good, not right and only leads to you never giving anyone else a chance and being alone and bitter and twisted too maybe - not good!!! I was married for a long time before it went wrong, had some good times, and loved each other to bits. Life and s.... happens, just have to accept, deal with it as painlessly as possible and move on - part of the journey as they say. I still live in hope, although dont put my life on hold waiting or chasing that special someone, but Im sure there is someone for everyone nevertheless. Never give up hope and keep the faith is what I say. Dating sites, breeding grounds for sad, mad, bad cases no doubt and when the few of us who are relatively "normal/ok" ppl find that out they leave quickly. Hence the strange lot that are left on there lol!!!! There are some good guys and ladies out there - its all about the person not whether they're male or female - one day all, one day...........................in the meantime, it just aint worth worrying about, losing sleep or getting hurt over - live, have fun, keep healthy and stay happy - be it as a singleton or with that special "someone" - count your blessings....................life's too short (take it from someone who's been there, got the t-shirt and aint going there again lol!!!)

hey paul its good to hear there are still thoughfull people around, she perhaps wasnt the right one for you mate, i believe in fate and if its not meant to be then it wont work....
milsey think you came off best in this one mate, you and ya kid together what more could you ask for
and i agree sandy date places not good go to local supermarket an checkout errr excuse the pun the goddies on offer there, its said that more relationships are started when shopping !!! never worked for me though
Not too sure the supermarket would be a good place to meet people...I too have a one track mind and when I'm shopping it's on the food! Although if a person of the fairer sex saw me in the checkout queue they would give me a wide berth thinking I'm a lustful pervert, what with all the salivating going on (Again my mind being only on the food!).
Hope you've all had a good biking weekend, I'll be out on mine next weekend. I did get to buy my 3 year old son his first bike (pedal variety though)- put it together for him and took him for a ride up the road...when I went to put it away he looked up at me, grinned and said "I like my bike" - made me melt as those four little words were better than all the thank-you's I have ever received from anyone.
Well Millsy and Paul for that matter lol!!
I think the same really, when you go to supermarket your mind is on your stomach and not further south generally (although Im sure the pervs and weirdos shop there for more than food too lol!!!) Just have to watch you dont get too carried away and make piggies of yourselves whilst in there as if you end up little porkers may be another mark against finding that lady of your dreams. I for one, would be a bit suspicious of a guy coming on to me in Asda's I think as I wouldnt be expecting it, (unless thats what they mean when they smack their bums in the advert??) Im blonde remember tho guys??!! Whereas in chat rooms Im well ready for em and soon get rid lol!!! As for Au Pairs Millsy - mmmm naughty, careful you dont wish for what you may not be able to handle - no response needed to that comment ty ol!!! and Paul, all I can say about little one and first bike - aaaaawwwwwwwwww remember it well - pure magic and one of the precious memories that will never leave you - enjoy!!!
TC all - you do make me giggle lol!!!
I love the look on my boys' face when he is happy, gets away with murder with that look.
The best tho is when he runs up to me, puts his arms round me, gives me a big kiss and tells me he loves me, that cannot be beaten by anything.
Big softie me
Di I have to agree with you, not got kids of my own, but when I get that treatment off my sister's kids I just melt.
I really really love kids, probably because I grew up with them.
Was dumped on 4th jan, totally out of the blue, done by email and he's refused to speak to me ever since. Thought we were having good times planning to go on my first rally with him, go on some rideouts, have weekends away in his other love his camper van and generally have a laugh but turns out he couldnt cope with having to integrate into my life too with my mates & kids so that was that. Was heartbroken but that I cant be doing with jealous possesive types. So i'm free and single again so any guys looking for some fun and a pillion buddy get in touch apologies to those of you who know him (you know who u are) but he's been an immature twat lol
yes, heard that kind of story so many times cheyenne - better off without em!! Also, email, texting has its place, but is also a cowards way out when it comes to "dumping" someone - a real man and a decent person, does it face to face and explains why!!! Only right after all - so much for modern technology helping us along our way uh?? Hate to hear it when guys do this to women - messes with minds and lives and no need for it!!! Oh well, the right one is out there for sure - enjoy and have fun in the meantime - move on as they say and dont bloody look back!!
Sandy
ive read most of the posts n all are true, but in my experiances everyone carries some sort of baggage from the past ,some poeple can leave it behind n some just put it down to be collected n sorted tho again later . as we get older it gets harder to find the right person . i belive there will be alot of single people of our age group in years to come there will be lots of dating but as to finding the right one well that will be the real challange . well after all that babling on i will leave you with a thought my mum put in my head years ago she said."why are all the nice poeple divorced" now that haurnts me cos im now in that gang . be true to your self n only compromise on what you want !
