What is the silliest question on earth?

Bags.jpg
The most common silly question is:
"Do you work here?" - Is that a trick question? I'm wearing a name tag, shelving books, and I am on the clock. Or maybe, they just have a genuine curiosity about my job.

"Are you open?" - We must be, you are inside the store asking me the question.
"Do you have any in the back?" - Sure, we love to hide the most popular merchandise in back. Why sell it? We could send it back to the manufacturer and get exactly what we paid for it. "Can you call your competitor for me?" - NO, NO and NO! We are selling our merchandise, not theirs.
"Where is the men's tie section?" - We don't sell ties, this is a bookstore. "What store is this?"
You get the picture; surely you have some funny stories to tell. Make me and the other folks laugh. Leave a comment about your funniest retail experience.

iaminperth - completely agree - trust is the basic foundation of any sort of friendship/relationship, so in lying they've sunk the black before they even begin! A bit sad really... also pathetic all those old guys "who look and feel so much younger" making idiots of themselves. Double YUK!!

IAMINPERTH: Bravo! I agree with you completely, 3 posts running.

1) Better to tell the exact truth about their age, so when you set your search parameters, you miss them completely, than to lie about it, and then own up immediately in their first email to you.

Let alone explaining that it was a marketing ploy so you'd even look at them through your green-tinted ageist filter-lenses, but abandoned by them, the moment after it had worked and led you to make contact.

Then throw themselves on on your mercy, and ask you to judge them on the rest of their profile, and preferably on the basis of a personal grilling, please.

2) Once you have caught someone out in their first porkie, you will never ever again trust a single thing they say.

3) Socially inept males who rely on the relaxant qualities of intoxicants or other administered drugs to cause females to be more comfortable about a quick pash at her front door are drug pushers, and everyone on a wholesome, contention-avoiding site like this is bound to agree with your values.

No

Now I’ve got you worried. What was the order of your questions again?

Posted by: neuroticfish at March 12, 2008 8:05 PM

Heres another silly question.
And why would any man be satisfied having sex with a woman who only wants him when she's half shot.?

Posted by: oohlala1 at March 12, 2008 8:04 PM

WoodnWine

To answer your questions:

1. Can I keep a secret? No. But you have to realise that none of the girls on here have ever told me anything in confidence. I don’t know whether it is my early training as a confessor that does it, or my later experiences in the Spanish Inquisition, but they seem to cough up every little detail. I have trouble literally keeping up with the huge gory details of their confessions. One young thing used to delight in recounting in glorious detail her adventures, including her crowning glory when she lapsed into unconsciousness through sheer excitement, the poor hapless boyfriend was desperately trying to resuscitate her, call Triple 000, and throw some clothes on her at the same time before the Ambulance arrived. She woke next morning in hospital with a male shirt and jocks on. Another has told me endlessly her bedroom adventures, who she has seduced, how good they were in bed (eg “couldn’t get it up,” “didn’t satisfy her one ounce,” “grunted loudly all the way through it” and “gave up in the end”) and who she intends to seduce in future. Becky Cole’s Hit Song “Way Too Much Information” has nothing on this femme fatale. So that when someone, who shall remain nameless, suddenly accuses me recently of blabbing all, take it with a grain of salt. Her disclosures that she was bedding someone 15 years her junior were NOT made in confidence. They were a boast. Oh yee of little or short term memory. In an earlier blog, there was an admission of an affair with a younger man.
2. Do I love you? Now let me see. Women do not hesitate to send me their naked photos. Maybe you should do the same, so I can determine whether I could fall in love with you. Rear view only please. Now I have you worried. Mind you, it used to get hot and steamy in the referees’ room after a torrid game, but maybe that was because the abuse was still ringing in our ears. And did I tell you of one referee, when put out to pasture, was so fit that he entered the industry of helping the poor old girls in 3 Nursing Homes out, until a daughter complained and a policewoman set him up and prosecuted, thereby ending another illustrious career.
3. Can I trust you? You’re joking of course. All’s fair in love and war. Sorry mate.

Posted by: blueeyes1955 at March 12, 2008 7:43 PM

Hi iaminperth! Personally I know four men around here who are between 5 and 7 years older than their rsvp profiles. Goodness knows how many others there are. Lots it seems? It's a behaviour that is not gender specific, lying about one's age! I understand why people do it, but what do they do if and when they meet someone they really click with? First off tell their newly beloved they've lied about their age? If it happened to me, my first reaction would be, what else have you lied about ... Anyway, I just don't want to have to go there, even if I get less contacts by putting my real age.

Will you still respect me?

Posted by: woodnwine at March 12, 2008 7:36 PM

Here's the silliest question on earth. When are any of you going to say something interesting on these blogs?
I've been reading for weeks now since I joined and they have got worse and worse each week. they are really getting boring to even bother to read now. Its like a boring family dinner. sameold same old every night.How was your day bla bla bla? Who cares?

Posted by: oohlala1 at March 12, 2008 7:28 PM

I'm with you Perth!!
Not very respectful is it? Obviously back in their younger days some of these guys were the same type of sleazes we tried to avoid in our youth!!

I suppose being drunk meant the young women concerned weren't able to judge whether the guy that just had sex with them was all that skilled in that department.
Did they let you near them when they were sober?
Also if a woman is so drunk she gives consent to sex in circumstances when she may not normally have done so, is she actually capable of giving informed consent?

Posted by: amberlight58 at March 12, 2008 7:26 PM

Hey laminperth, its a silly term but said in jest l'm sure....
re your comment about guys changing their age, refreshing to know that they do it too...l was beginning to think that was only a trait aimed at women by disgruntled men........................K

It really is a very festy expression isnt it iaminperth !!

Posted by: jenjen57 at March 12, 2008 6:59 PM

Hi Marcus
Actually if you have RSViP its 60 kisses a day, although how you could find enough time to research locate and send kisses out to so many in one day is beyond me.........I am busy enough working and studying. Maybe thats part of my problem in finding Mr He's The One For Me.........

Posted by: jenjen57 at March 12, 2008 6:56 PM

What a revolting name for a drink a legopner. Surely if the only way you can get a woman slightly interested in you is to get her half drunk you must be a pretty boring sort of person. You obviously are not going to be able to do it any other way. And why would any man be satisfied having sex with a woman who only wants him when she's half shot. yuk

Posted by: iaminperth at March 12, 2008 6:34 PM

I also think it's is so silly lying. The truth Will come out one day and then how does the other person know when they can trust that person again. I believe that trust is the basis for all relationships with anything and everything.

Posted by: iaminperth at March 12, 2008 6:31 PM

Silliest question on this site WA seems to be how old are you really ? I have seen some guys profiles disappear for about a week and then turn up with a different name and about four years younger. Different name, different age but the same photo. What a laugh, one guy on here was actually 58 last week and now he's just turned 53. Same photos though..........! I suppose women do it as well but I'm not exactly looking thru the female pics, although sometimes get a little curious as to what they are saying, must admit.

Posted by: iaminperth at March 12, 2008 6:29 PM

We've got local gov't elections this Saturday, and my local Council is window-dressing, to try to keep their jobs. They've even got their Parks Dept staff belatedly raking the sand in the sandpits in all the public parks, to protect the kiddies from discarded popping needles and other sharps, not to mention dogs' droppings in public places, which the Pontiff has just declared to be a mortal sin - one of the new 7 extra ones that are to do with our duties to the universe, rather than to our own salvation.

Marcus @ 4.22pm: Mate, I just loved that response of yours - the delicious height of irony. Well done.

Amdoingit @ 4.51pm: I did say that was before Bris ended up -Vegas. Just a big sleepy country town, 30km up the river. Didn't even have espresso coffee till 1959 - only milk-shakes.

Premier Joh and Co kept everything PG-rated, and at my advanced age I am now suddenly no longer homesick for those times.

Here's a G-rated haiku, sorry, senryu (because it's about a person not a landscape) as my entry into the silliest question competition:

ENIGMA

Why would a girl
buy kiss-proof lipstick,
instead of
just eating garlic? (c) me, 2000.

C u when I knock off work in an hour or two, after sunset. (This was late lunch.)

Posted by: timewarp1 at March 12, 2008 5:40 PM

Silly questions? Oh I have many examples over the years of dealing with the general public when I worked for Australia Post...

A couple of the most memorable are:

A woman came in to send her Christmas presents to the UK. I told her she was in time to send them seamail. She looked at me with a most peculiar facial expression and said, "Does that mean I have to take them back home and pack them waterproof?"

A guy came in to buy a stamp to send a card to Canada. I sold him the correct postage stamp for what he needed. Five minutes later he came back and asked me if I was sure that stamp was ok to send to Canada because it had Australia printed on it.

The bog mindles...

I do remember that there was a time when Dry & Dry was the in drink. That was the Dry Cinzano with dry ginger ale.. I am going back aren't I?? Artsy/craftsy/phoney... Hmm, I actually enjoyed it !!!! "G"

aMDOING IT @ 12.44pm: Yess - Pimms No 1 legopner always taken as a long drink.

My recipe 1 shot Pimms in a very long glass, 1 cubic inch/2 blocks ice, dash of Angostura bitters (still in fridge door today after 3 house moves), equal parts lemonade and ginger ale - strip of cucumber peel and marashino cherry.

Also disguised/camouflaged with half-slices of lemon, lime and orange, if being administered with evil intent.

Champers No 2, of course.

In the early 60s I kept one champagne glass in glovebox of my hotted-up red Hillman Minx (with white roof, to be cool, and less uncool.) If sharing lips later, why not glass sooner?

Cheapskates used Passion Pop, Porphyry Pearl etc, but in Bris-pre-Vegas, vermouth was far too artsy-craftsy-phoney for anyone.

Back to work after lunch.

decoratress ... I'm with you ... 50% just isn't enough, although to expect perfect compatability with someone I think would be foolish and leave us alone for a very long time. As I like to say, some things (that we prefer in a partner) are non-negotiable (read core values) but some are and they are merely preferences. Also, we need to remain open to new ideas that a good partner can bring to us.

Marcus @ 8.31am...

Re your comment "Pussy power. Not fussy power for the olde girles. The young girls seem to understand it implicitly"

Some of us "olde girles" (hahaha..) are naturally fussy.. we actually like being fussy.. it brings us quality, not quantity.

Some of us don't feel the Need for a man in our lives, just would like to have one we adore rather than one who is merely ok..
I enjoy many aspects of being single, & am not prepared to give them up unless I meet a man with whom I have an extraordinary connection.

Being fussy is not limited to age.. I was just as fussy when I was in my twenties, as I am now. It's also one of the things I seem to have passed on to my daughter.. she is just as fussy as I am, & has difficulty grasping the concept of 'making do' with someone who doesn't knock her socks off.

Sometimes it seems you forget that we are all different. You are very fond of making sweeping generalisations... this appproach is very often tripped up by the amazing individuality of human beings.

.. you go for 50% .. I go for higher.

One cannot argue Right & Wrong on issues such as these. It all comes down to personal preferences, & our right to have them.

Pixie @ 11.26pm.. I don't want to start a war with you but to say that it was typical of the nonconstructive people on this site was in fact an insult. Methinks you do need to think before you type when it comes to comments like that. Just a word of advise ok and offered in good faith...

"I can understand how people end up in relationships where the feeling isn't mutual.

You meet someone you get a long with so you see them again; there is some attraction there. Before you have completely analysed your emotions one of you at least believes you're a couple. It's not a bad relationship as you are compatible on various levels but it is unsatisfying.

This has happened to male friends mine and once to me. Not a happy ending."

This just shows that dating can be tricky and it may in fact be rare where both parties are progressing at the same speed. I think so long as each party is given a fair chance and allowed to make a few nervous mistakes and there is open discussion then the chances of hurt for either party can be minimised ... but probably not illiminated.

Posted by: woodnwine at March 12, 2008 9:45 AM

Jenjen
The kiss limit is or was 10 per 24 hours. So only 300 a month.
Men with their analytical brains realise that partner hunting is a numbers game. Women need to wake up that things have changed and to be proactive and honest about it too. Not reactive. Maureen Dowd feminism. Pussy power. Not fussy power for the olde girles. The young girls seem to understand it implicitly.
Just a thought.
Cheers Marcus

Morning Jen, and I also must depart to work. We may be deluded but eventually the odds must be in our favour if we are at least giving it a go.If one sends me an email I always respond and don't take everything in a profile at face value. We were always told to not judge a book by its cover. Some books turn out great while others disappoint but you always have to read at least a few chapters before being able to decide.
Hope the gender rate equals for Chardy Lounge but history tells us the other. No wonder the guys like going there as they get soooooooo much attention from all the lovely ladies.

I forgot to add, to that ever so lovely piece of London slouchedom, what, pray tell, is an “electric violin”?

Some Stradivarium nightmare? Plugged in to a 9 volt battery no doubt.

You can fiddle and fart
And it’s kinda tart,
But if you’re into grass,
It’s better to pass,
Stick to your bongos
Or your bongo van,
But if you’re bit of a tramp
Try using an amp
Or you’ll squeak and squeal
Like a tortured eel,
So give it a miss
Unless you’re on the proverbial.

Perth @ 8.26pm: Marcus, or to give him his european title Marquise, is our current resident exponent of "Yes but!"

He talks a lot (nearly as much as me) but his unusually intelligent and knowledgeable left brain is usually overshadowed by his right brain, thirsting for emotion.

So he takes the opposite side of any argument (or no argument till then) and if that doesn't generate enough emotion to satisfy him, he tries some insults.

Kianee has a pet name for him - I think it's loquaciousandamusing. Does that answer your question? (No he's not naughtyfish)

Posted by: timewarp1 at March 12, 2008 4:25 AM

Bean @ 7.37pm: I was only trying to clue Virgil up about women. But I'm happy to rave on about the other side of the coin for you, till the advanced hour makes me fall off my perch.

So what does a woman do if a man tries to seduce her (your word made him sound like a ram or a wildebeeste), during the first date?

1) Expect it. (So many men are very good accountants. They want to minimise the time and dollars invested, before they get their first dividend.)

2) Think about it scientifically. Consult the stars - get feedback especially from the Southern Cross and the 2 pointers.

Also check the local geography - are you two alone on a desert island? Is he the only blind man for 100 miles around? (sorry - that was a bit insulting, wasn't it?)

3) Keep your decision verbal for a while. Respond with your thoughts and their reasons, before you resort to body language like kneeing him in the codpiece.

Does that answer your question?

Posted by: timewarp1 at March 12, 2008 3:48 AM

Why do I always come, after you've gone to sleep? The seminar was excellent, but my 2-for-$50 guest stayed here talking to me till well after midnight, sun time.

A few quick thoughts: We were told by a planter in the 50s that the world's best legopner was Pimms, and I still have some left in the bottle we hadn't quite finished when a second unplanned pregnancy suddenly turned herself from a loveable larrikin into a teetotal control freak.

Sweetbumblebees @ 1.33pm: What about cutting to the chase with something like "You seem to be down today. What would make you feel better?"

Marcus @ 1.53pm: Are sure about your multiplier factor? Could it actually be the reciprocal, suggesting they'd be ready to pay a dividend after 32 dates? I can visualise that with a gold-digger ...

Blueeyes @ 6.47pm: I'm sorry your very useful question didn't get more replies.

My attitude: In my profile I list what qualities I'd love to find in someone, to make her into "my ultimate fantasy" (I call it that.)

Then in the fine print (which my kind of people DO read, and very carefully) I advise that I'll be very happy if I only find "Ms Right-Enuff who also thinks that I'm Mr Right-Enuff."

I'm with you. I'm not wasting my best remaining years, in the hope of finding my 100%-perfect match, just in time for my less-good downhill years.

The only time in our life that we are able to enjoy is now, whenever that happens to be.

And the quality of a loving relationship depends on the dedication of both lovers to one another, more than it does on the perfection of their suitability for each other.

Re getting some correspondence going.
I can offer that if your replies to men read as much like an instruction book and a humourless list of wants and as your profile that might be the reason.

Willow- thanks too, for your kind comments- I'm so glad you're back & didn't let the miserymongers get to you! Hah... for once my vote may have counted!!!

Kaz, Wishful, Virgil, Willow, et al....
I'm lining up that isolated (but still within easy reach of civilisation for necessary supplies of said chardy/cocktails) farmhouse. On to it. First thing tomorrow, the real estate mags....
Will keep you up to date on progress....

May I suggest somewhere in the Dandenong Ranges? It's very beautiful up here...

Posted by: decoratress at March 12, 2008 12:45 AM

Willow,
Are you sure all that chardy/ cocktails very loud music and "entertaining" conversation would be suitable for your little ones? (I'm not sure about my 11 yo!!)

Posted by: amberlight58 at March 12, 2008 12:35 AM

Virgil, sounds like a great idea but the country retreat would need to be big enough for my kids to visit on weekends.

Trust me, the other guests will get just as much enjoyment out of them as I do. They will brighten eveyones lives with laughter and unencumbered love .... a thing we can all do with.

A couple of side orders, lots of water to swim in and Foxtel for the footy and a bit of cricket please.

decoratress, love your profile and pics. Unique and full of individuality, think I may have said this before in the past week or so.

As others have said, so I'm just another voice. Glad it is now visible so we can share in it.

Pixie, this is not directed at you and I hope you have been able to understand my earlier joke.

Posted by: willow1059 at March 12, 2008 12:24 AM

Most certainly Virgil....can't have you providing the entertainment without contributing something myself..
And l do so like a nice cold glass of wine.

Amberlight yes l think a large country property would most definitely be more appropriate, given the loud noise that Virgil will be making and the fantastic singing l will no doubt attempt............K

Posted by: auntykaz at March 12, 2008 12:23 AM

Virgil..

May I bring my djembes & collection of percussion instruments...?
And my electric violin...?
Pleeeease?

(Kaz, if you're bringing the chardy, I'll bring the makings for the cocktails, ok?)

Posted by: decoratress at March 12, 2008 12:21 AM

I can understand how people end up in relationships where the feeling isn't mutual.

You meet someone you get a long with so you see them again; there is some attraction there. Before you have completely analysed your emotions one of you at least believes you're a couple. It's not a bad relationship as you are compatible on various levels but it is unsatisfying.

This has happened to male friends mine and once to me. Not a happy ending.

Posted by: cautious08 at March 12, 2008 12:20 AM

Yeah l can see me at the Nursing Home for the Chardonnay and Camembert set.......
Pearls ,Twinsets, Chardy and Cheese.......
I should look okay with my 7 earrings (so far), high heels, and sharp tongue.......
Probably be in charge of thr resident's commitee and introduce Chardy hour or three.. At least l will sleep well at night without sedation..............K

Posted by: auntykaz at March 12, 2008 12:06 AM

I know a married couple who are now in their early 80s. They met in their early 60s (both widowed) and have been together now for 20 years. They both have the most wicked sense of humour and it's obvious they still adore each other. They say that when they got together, they never believed that they would still be alive and together so many years later.
They are still living in their own home, although you can see their health isn't as robust as it used to be.
Maybe having a shared sense of humour and a sense of fun is very important in longer-lasting relationships.
I must admit that my ex-husband and I weren't on the same wave-length when it came to humour.

Posted by: virgil at March 11, 2008 11:58 PM

Hi misschievously at March 11, 2008 3:07 PM.

Regarding your question (not silly, as it is asked by many people,)

>"Are they (girls and boy twins) identical?"

Answer: no.

Identical twins are from a single sperm and single ovum that for some reason scientists don't understand yet, split into two separate individuals not long after conception.

Therefore, as far as the medical profession know; it is impossible for male and female twins to be identical.

Adult males normally have two different types of sperm: female sperm referred to as "x", male sperm as "y".

Some males are genetically predisposed towards having a higher count of one or the other.

A high sperm count is often associated with a higher rate of male child conceptions.

A lower sperm count (whether through hereditary, ill health, age, stress or frequent depletions) is generally associated with a increased rate of female conceptions.

Male sperm swim faster and while female sperm are not as quick, they are more durable than the males and not quite as susceptible to less than ideal conditions.

I thought that was documented scientific fact, JenJen while we see exceptions, I think our science textbooks will tell us that.

Posted by: virgil at March 11, 2008 11:47 PM

Amberlight, you get to talk and meet many types of people on these sites and there will always be those we think are lacking in people skills. I don't have a problem with someone changing their mind but they should at least have to courage to say so and this can be done in an extremely polite way.I usually send these people an email stating their intention to contact me and that if they have changed their mind I would appreciate an email saying so.On a couple of occasions I have had apologies sent agreeing with what I had written.If I change my mind about someone I always send them an email saying so but also saying that their company was lovely and I enjoyed the outing I had but I don't think I am the one for them.
Jen- must read your profile again to see what it is we have in common.

Posted by: blueeyes1955 at March 11, 2008 11:46 PM

pixie 10:44 "willow1059...obviously you just dont get it...think about it before you get too smart!! and also you arent privie to the previous blog on this subject!"

Pixie, my 10:38 post was a joke, a play on words. No intention to be smart or otherwise with merits of the argument. Just read the previous posts tonight about sex, sleeping with others and you will see the context especially in conjunction with others posts about bonk time.

There was no comment intended about the relevance of your post or previous blog topics.

Posted by: willow1059 at March 11, 2008 11:43 PM

Also misschievously, there are those people who think love is really only about the racing pulse and surge in libido one gets in the heady, early days of a new relationship (particularly potent in one's adolescence). Once that starts to settle down they immediately think that they must have "fallen out of love" and begin looking for someone else who elicits the same response!

Posted by: amberlight58 at March 11, 2008 11:43 PM

Decoratress....great profile..just had to have a peek! Some wonderful photos and colours!

Decline from 25 Virgil ?? I think its very individual........TW being one obvious exception as he is still working, very physically active and sharp as a tack mentally. My Dad might even give him a run for his money and he is 89 and not a frail bone in his body. I really think a lot of people talk themselves into being old.

Posted by: jenjen57 at March 11, 2008 11:43 PM

Ah yes the midlife changes that happen....
can't wait for that........NOT !!

I think that attitude is a very important part of the ageing process, combined with the physical pressures that humans tend to place on their bodies...........

So right, l should live to be a hundred and five, minus a few for the odd glass of chardy and bit of cambembert...........

You are probably correct on the "lust ' thought . By the time he realised it, it was many months into the relationship and yet as a couple we were extremely compatible. I guess we are all looking for different things. Mind you he is a hard act to follow.

I find that sometimes these posts force me to evaluate my beliefs and opinions. I really feel that I've benefited greatly from everything I've read here and I do sincerely appreciate the input of all. If someone says something I disagree with, I have an opportunity to evaluate their comments and opinions in respect to my own. Sometimes my position is altered as I gain a little more insight. Sometimes it reaffirms my own beliefs. Either way, I've benefited. Thank you.

Posted by: riversong1 at March 11, 2008 11:37 PM

it becomes more evident as the years go forward. Maybe some, like possibly Timewarp dont deteriorate as quickly as some others, however its decline from 25.

I didnt even think this would be disputed, given that women have more difficult childbirth as the 30's progress, and stop having children at some point.

Blokes also, I think go through changes, in their 40's and 50's.

Posted by: auntykaz at March 11, 2008 11:24 PM

This is my take on blueeyes' post @10:59

I don't think it is any secret that some men (yes, and women) do not truly understand their emotions. So, it is not surprising to me that they may mistake the initial overwhelming feelings of lust for love.

Hence, once he has satisfied those base desires and the giddy feeling diminishes, he thinks he no longer loves, when in fact, he never did love.

A possible solution: no physical intimacy until love has developed. Assuming of course, that this is the desired outcome.

Posted by: misschievously at March 11, 2008 11:23 PM

What an awful way to treat you, blueeyes.
I have read so many of the bloggers and others discussing this kind of disrespectful behaviour. Whatever happened to treating others as you would wish to be treated?

Makes one wonder why anyone even tries internet dating really. Maybe I am lucky after all!

Neuroticfish......I believed in you...peace out..I also believed in my dreams, your one of the pioneer of this blog until recently recognized you though those picking me, which I started open my eyes figured all this things...

Many times I tried to left this blogs, unfortunately my rest never my thoughts as always my names included behind my back. Which is never given me peace of mind. Reason keeps coming back and back again...

NF..as you been aware of my dreams a beautiful butterfly rested on top of my head but before the omen foretold I have to encounter many trials and bad weeds to ruin my beautiful gown..which is all true ( inside & out RSVP )...

I prayed loud & hard to divine...how long should I be on this quest...My Spirit is willing But my hope is losing...through dreams appears saying...I have the strenght to carry-on on this journey for all ages, waiting...waiting....there is some kind of power I can resist to denied why I was been pick-up to this journey throughout my life,...I fall-in love once but was been curse for disobey and he died my greatest grief.

I was wandering alone for goodness sake 2 decade I almost given up...my own effort, alone, to tackle all the challenges...the great opportunities i left due to the warning sign of my dreams...through travelling as far I could reach makes my time past-away for time being....

At the end of my strenght weaken me...sent message in my dreams, I was bound with a man I have not meet yet from the the revelation will take place why I was in this journey's because of the bloodline...

This man is equal of mine, from all aspects as I see the shoes I am wearing same as his style, design and materials made...he wears my foot shoe - same he does wears mine. If you are the man in my dreams rejoice and be happy as...wealth, peace, old age healthy, honour, bloodline, harmony, travel four corners of the world will be....then it shall be done....if you still remember about my dreams I wrote in this blogs..now it is happening....but if not meant to be will never be....

Thank you so much of the sapphire will talk that once we meet then see if the omen foretold correctly. Have peace body & soul ...as the omen, No human can stop...

maybe MissChievously, but sometimes a non contacting might not be as sinister as one might think. There may be much indecision, sometimes some, who lack either courage, or the ability to quickly decide, choose to do nothing, you just dont know. It is hard being the waiting person.

Posted by: virgil at March 11, 2008 11:12 PM

Mischievous- I would probably think so. Try a lunch date,a dinner date, an email suggesting another date,and a missed phone call then no replies to text messages or emails yet still checking in on the site.You'd think they would at least be man enough to email saying they had changed their mind. I don't understand why some people are not adult enough to let the person know. With an email they don't even have to do it face to face.But at least you would know and move on.

Posted by: blueeyes1955 at March 11, 2008 11:10 PM

Oh reading my last post the first bit sounded a bit cold.....
what l meant was when we are younger the usual point of a longer lasting relationship / marriage is to have a child.....
You know, meet, fall in love, marry have a family, a mortgage, a dog and cat.....
Not for everyone of course but for most the reality, particularly those of us in the 40's and 50's age group........hope that is a bit clearer..............K

Posted by: auntykaz at March 11, 2008 11:08 PM

Pixie,
I would be keen to know about your theory. Are you talking about ageing?

Posted by: amberlight58 at March 11, 2008 11:07 PM

Agree pixiemagic, younger days are for procreation in general......that was the point of your statement wasn't it???

Attraction, reaction, acceptance, devotion rejection, dejection, happiness, sadness, all are human emotions that we experience at some time or another in our lives.........

Marcus, a thigh to ply or a groin to grind... what about a bum to knead, and l can't think of anything else that rhymes.......
but l think l get your drift....................K

Posted by: amberlight58 at March 11, 2008 11:00 PM

Am back from dancing- more action there than here.
"Not sure about stars, fireworks and heaven bit either sounds a girly concept." from Marcus. Most of my girlfriends think on a more practical level and believe "being in love" is something that grows in time where you care and love everything about the person.Whilst the male friends think that when they are in love they should see nothing but their partner and the room lights up when she walks in the room.They seem to view it in a more romantic way where they say they can love someone very much but still not be 'in love' with them. I have heard this from a few girlfriends whose relationships lasted a little over a year.

Posted by: misschievously at March 11, 2008 10:34 PM

When I was first here piximagic had a theory that once we get a bit older, mother nature doesnt care so much for us.

This theory was not liked very much, and being new, I kept out of it, as one does if new.

Although I completely agreed with the theory

Pixie magic

Ok...here I go again and thanks Virgil for that comment...all I was saying at that time had nothing to do with anyone's libido...it was just about the normal structure of the universe..whether animal or human and that is procreation of the masses. Remember nature is selective....when we are older we are no longer so important to the enduring structure of life..doesnt mean we arent important as human beings just not important in prolonging the species..if that hurts then sorry but its the truth!.

Lets be kind to each other and try and make this an informative/constructive site.

Quess I'll duck for cover for now (<;)

Aliane, sweetie, I have a sapphire ring on order especially for you.

And it won’t be the one that the Babe told me to stick up my new hard drive either.

My next expedition will be to fossick out a few gold nuggets. You would think that on a site full of golddiggers, I could get just one of them to go with me, but no! not a single one wants such pleasant company, such a memorable experience, the joys of camping in the wild, surrounded only by one thonged Yowies, German tourists and Swedish backpackers- the only people these days who go bush in Ostraliya. Oh. Did I forget. A lonely Canadian pocahontas who knows how to keep a wigwarm, even better than Canadian whiskey can. I don’t think she knows what she is in for. Aliane, you must be a mind reader to know all this!

Of course, it's not all up to me and finding someone who is on the same page as me is easier said than done. I'm flat out getting a man to send more than one email. God only knows what I am saying to repel them. It actually has been intrigued, how men think.

Marcus, does the pash and dash result in the male equivalent of the chilly nip, the shrinkage????.
Think George Costanza in Seinfeld.....

MissC,
from my perspective and experience if
your gene structure is sound and your mental faucilties are good you are just coming into what should be the best period in your life, apart from the hormone change that will ultimately catch up with you. With a few exceptions it is now that you are grown up, have the experience of lifes up's and downs, and the confidence to face any situation, be independant if you wish to be, and have the sense to know a wank when one lifts himself out of the gutter.
Cheers OG

Ok Mr ????.... Stop peeping....You're going to give me a complex or something if you keep this up.... you can only say hi so many times you know without making a person wonder why????
Maybe you should just send an email !!!!! "G"

Posted by: amdoingit at March 11, 2008 9:43 PM
ohh I just had a look at your profile amdoingit, umm havent said Hi, I would send a kiss if you were in Adelaide.

Posted by: virgil at March 11, 2008 9:51 PM

Virgil.. That's probably why we have to take extra care of ouselves as we get older.. Mother nature can be very cruel to some yet very kind to others.. Luck of the draw I guess... So far I've not been too harshly dealt with so am keeping fingers crossed.. Good luck to you all...."G"

Posted by: amdoingit at March 11, 2008 9:49 PM

misscheviously.
Yours is an excellent point about lusty love and reproduction and physiology.
I think if you still find your mate hot after those initial stage things look good.
The anthropologists reckon that this rare in nature situation is because evolution stole the mother child bonds.
A lot of people see love as an evolutionary trick and in many ways a sick state with much in common with some psychiatric disorders like obsessive compulsive.
Hmm Cheers MS

Posted by: amdoingit at March 11, 2008 9:43 PM

When I was first here piximagic had a theory that once we get a bit older, mother nature doesnt care so much for us.

This theory was not liked very much, and being new, I kept out of it, as one does if new.

Although I completely agreed with the theory

Posted by: virgil at March 11, 2008 9:42 PM

pash and dash eh? I was going to rhyme the next bit but it wasn't quite Haiku.
It is a serious point amdoingit. The man assumes a woman has her criteria which in the classic situation are pretty straightforward and she decides yes or no.
That is what suitor means.

Aunty.
The cold nip. is a feasible get out because the pash and dash often happens at the car door.
Cheers Marcus

Posted by: oldergent at March 11, 2008 9:40 PM

blueyes, I think perhaps that this may be part of the problem with relationships. It is impossible to sustain those initial feelings one develops when in the beginning stage of a relationship. Many of those feelings are chemically induced, to ensure continuation of the species. The chemicals, or rather hormones, will eventually subside once nature decides that you've had enough time to procreate.

However, this doesn't mean that you can't still be 'hot' for each other, it just means that you need to compensate for the lack of hormonal assistance. Whilst I can't say from personal experience, I do believe that the relationship that develops beyond this stage can be even more rewarding, or at least this is my hope. :o)

The transformation is well liked here too

Posted by: amdoingit at March 11, 2008 9:36 PM

Bean, (been watching "Brat Camp") maybe it would help you know who to grow up, 12 or 18 months there. I am starting to like the new OG to ohhhmm
Cheers OG

Aliane.

Of course it is quiet.
It’s Tuesday nite.
The poet said
As he went to bed.

When women start discussing kissing on the lips, next they’ll be discussing the benefits of holding hands and going steady.

Such discussion always begs the question:

“North or south of the border?”

“Down Mexico way?”

Actually I’m in love with my new hard drive.

The whole 750 gigs of it.

Even an Italian modelling agency doesn’t have that many.

Posted by: neuroticfish at March 11, 2008 9:32 PM

My first loveshe was 15 and I was 17
ummmm
nearly 16
I wil;l remember her till the day I die

Posted by: virgil at March 11, 2008 9:32 PM

Aliane.
I'm right for dogs thanks though OGre has been barking and threatening to bite me tonight.
I have my lizards and they are very little trouble.
Don't you take anyone here too seriously.
Cheers
Marcus

Posted by: laughsandtalks at March 11, 2008 9:30 PM

Hmm Virgil
Good tip with the Green ginger wine. I've tried mead too. As of 24 years ago I don't drink- too much bad behaviour.
My first was Italian and lives in country Vic with a Croatian bloke who was a more acceptably Catholic than me.
The Croats intervention had it's silver lining because it enabled me to get to know her older sister a lot better.
Cheers MS

Posted by: laughsandtalks at March 11, 2008 9:27 PM

I have one phrase for you marcus - the pash-and-dash :) It guarantees nothing but a good passionate kiss followed by a walk out the door - alone! Always fun :)

Posted by: impossiblebean at March 11, 2008 9:27 PM

OK Marcus.. I am having a chuckle here... Tarts for practise.. goooo... Lets just agree to disagree on the least resistant shall we??
As for the right of veto.. once again a two way street. Have seen many a femme do her dance and display, etc, etc. And so we go.. See.. You can't win darling because it does work both ways.. That's a fact... Agreed??? "G"

Posted by: amdoingit at March 11, 2008 9:26 PM

Come on Marcus have you ever had an Aunty kiss???

Joking actually........ whew he says......

Maybe the tactile nipple is because its a bit chilly.............................K

Posted by: auntykaz at March 11, 2008 9:24 PM

you win Marcus...., I can shut-up as you know I am always "Underdog" would you like pet-dog, they great protector, lover, friends and guidance, I won't bark on you, so don't bite either...fair enough...got yah...

Posted by: aliane at March 11, 2008 9:23 PM

Not a smackeroo girls, a passionate kiss, one with a bit of moisture.
Is a 100% sure thing at some stage if she does that. Unequivocally so. Have had it confirmed many times.
Haha
Cheers Marcus

Posted by: laughsandtalks at March 11, 2008 9:22 PM

or maybe it's just a cold night?

Posted by: impossiblebean at March 11, 2008 9:20 PM

Do we ever recapture the first real feeling of love??
A genuine question, and by it l mean our first husband, wife, partner whatever, our first absolute love of our lives, for want of a better phrase,

Do we become a bit overdone with the thought of someone totally being in our lives again, as opposed to "me " time???..............................K

Posted by: auntykaz at March 11, 2008 7:25 PM

I dont think so, my first love will always be special. I think she is married to a German guy, now living in Germany, a long way from Broken Hill

Posted by: virgil at March 11, 2008 9:20 PM

amdoingit.
Men usually follow the line of least resistance for sex rather than being easy. ;-}
That explains the popularity of tarts for practise, particularly with the learners.
In the consensual world I inhabit the man makes his pitch, does his dance and display and the woman chooses. The woman has right of veto and picks up the man.
He can rub his bulge against her or himself and sometimes it is helpful but that kiss or the tactile nipple is the sign that says "your in".
Cheers Marcus

Posted by: laughsandtalks at March 11, 2008 9:18 PM

Thank you Jewels... Glad I'm not alone on that one. I'm a terror for that.. Full on smackaroo on the lips. Do it all the time and always have.. Must admit it does take a few back.. Need to remind myself sometimes that it's not everyone's cuppa tea.. Cheers... "G"

Posted by: amdoingit at March 11, 2008 9:18 PM

for those newbie Bloggers perhaps you don't understand this conversation of mine....my apology.

for those my fellow pioneer Bloggers, I'm sure you know me well from the start. of course you get my clues....

Now my silliest question is:

Where is my Darling?
Where is my Sweetie?
Where are my associates?

As you know I am the "underdog" ...I bark if needed...Dog was a protector, lover, companion and guild-dog for blind-eyes.

thanks, nite is quiet...thanks for the guild-DOG methink!

Posted by: aliane at March 11, 2008 9:15 PM

Even a full kiss on the lips does not mean anything really Marcus.........and certainly no guarantee of a bonk

Posted by: jenjen57 at March 11, 2008 9:13 PM

Marcus... maybe it's equally arousing for a woman...and... much more definite than a bulge rubbing against a thigh... Hmmmm. (sorry, best comparison I could come up with). Does that mean he'll do anything and should I brand him"easy"... Just a little food for thought... See it does work both ways... "G"

Posted by: amdoingit at March 11, 2008 9:12 PM

aliane.
With your suitors and bodyguards on full alert I think I'll be the paparazzi, hope for a picture and observe but not get involved
Cheers MS x

Posted by: laughsandtalks at March 11, 2008 9:10 PM

amdoingit.
50% is satisfactory if you are not intent on planning a life together and both want pleasant distraction.
Re the kissing. I mean a full kiss on the lips, not an Aunty peck.
It is arousing for a man and strong signalling. Much more definite than rubbing the nipply part of your boob against a blokes arm or shoulder.

Posted by: laughsandtalks at March 11, 2008 9:04 PM

The silliest question:

She says: “Do you love me?”

He says: “Can’t you keep your mind above your navel for once.”

Actually I just wanted to write another blog that gets wiped.
