    You're right...that makes no sense at all.....surely between us we should be able to manage something!

    Why is it like this? We are all brilliant and fabulous. It just annoys me so much that some people seem able to jump from one relationship to another so easily:confused: What do they know that we don't? It's like some secret society. :rolleyes: How do some peopls find it so easy?

    It's like those magazine articles that keep promising that what you need to do is enjoy being single and 'find yourself' and that all that nonsense and then Mr Amazing will ride into your life on a white charger.

    Which is complete boll***s

    Steady now:naughty::D Sometimes that's all I have left to cling to:rolleyes:
    I'm totally happy being single but no man has ever been amazed at my independence and single satisfaction.

    Exactly. It seems like being clingy and needy and not being able to do a blo0dy thing for yourself is more attractive. Grrrr:mad:

    Get round to crush man's on moving day and stand there filing your nails whilst proclaiming "ooh, you're so clever, that looks difficult." He will fall at your feet. :D

    Fab idea, but I would never pull it off - soooo not me! Although I am mildly obsessed with my nails - and spend far too much on them :o

    Hi!

    Didn't think anybody was about, so I left. Loads to catch up on. I tried to read most of the posts, but didn't manage all of them. The mood seems to be a bit down and I'm afraid I'm not feeling much better. I think it's down to tiredness, hormones and a sense anti-climax after the weekend for the most part. Also haven't had a good time at work over the last couple of weeks and am finding myself sitting at my desk a lot of the time thinking 'I hate my job, I hate my job, I hate my job...' It doesn't help that since that guy blew up at me, I feel really tense and uncomfortable around him and I have to work quite closely with him.

    Ok, the lowdown on the weekend...Take That were amazing. It was an incredible show. Gave me goosebumps on several occasions, it was so amazing. I was *slightly* disappointed with our seats though, but other than that it was fabulous. Wimbledon was absolutely awesome. I've never been before, but the atmosphere is great. I'd prefer to try to remain anonymous on here (although PM me if you're interested...I just don't want other folks wandering on here, who might know me to realise who I am), but we were on TV a few times as we were pretty close to the court and the players. The match was great (as you saw), but I REALLY wanted Andy to win. Poor guy, I just wanted to give him a hug when he was stood there with the plate. I definitely want to go to Wimbledon again as it was fantastic to see all the places I've grown up seeing on TV, but I honestly don't think any experience will top that one now (unless I'm jammy enough to get to another final). It was the best weekend, but now I'm back and it's back to work and reality, plus I'm skint which probably isn't helping the mood!!

    makeup - I'm sorry the fire affected you so much. It was quite shocking to hear about it on the news. I was in a house fire (although thankfully I got out pretty early) earlier this year. It was very scary, you don't ever think it will happen to you. I know it's probably irrelevant to the poor people in those flats (I really hope there's a thorough investigation going on), but I'd urge everybody to check their smoke alarms every week - it's so, so important. Also, get a fire extinguisher. If I'd had one, I could have tackled the fire when it was still a tiny flame. It would have saved so much hassle with insurance not to mention the fire brigade putting themselves at risk. They were so professional though, I have even more respect for firemen (and women) now.

    Sarah - Fingers crossed for the job. As regards relationships, I've also been wondering how some people have it so easy recently. Some people just find other people so easily and can go from one relationship to another without blinking almost.

    FeeFee - Well done on being sub 5k!

    Hugs for everybody else who needs them.

    Gwenx
