Anyone Care To Prove Me Right?0 -
Sortab between Laindon and Basildon, Lee Chapel North, close enough to Laindon to order a take away from the Akash in the Laindon centre and close enough to Basildon to walk to town.
Cruise will be the first proper holiday I've had in a few years, visited my friend in Toronto last year, took DS to Butlins (ugh!) the year before. Last real "holiday" was a cheap week in Spain, which wasn't even cheap because it was in August, crappy little apartment right up the hill in Salou and that cost over 1k for a week! Cruise actually seems like value for money. REading about the fabulous food on board has made me drool....The best things in life are NOT free - but they sure are cheaper with MSE!:j0 -
knew i'd be back on here sooner or later and seeing as the band upstairs are in full swing i cant sleep grrrr.
I used to live in Basildon tooooooo
Well, Vange (how i hate that place name) I only lived there or 4 years but do miss being so close to the leisure park
Essexhoney, glad the bub is moving about a lot more. Lets hope she keeps it up.

As long as she doesn't want any physical qualities then she's in luckI'm no oil painting and have plenty of things to put ladies off. If it's down to personality, then people know i'm very caring, loving and have a sense of humour.......I guess they don't want that part of me either
Btw, did you post any of your cat pics here?0 -
Eurgh, it's too hot :doh:
Had a pretty bad day. I was getting angry about everything today. Too many people causing me bother, and not enough listening.......story of my lifePut that with the heat and my teeth hurt, and you have one very aggitated Miroslav
and when I get angry I get depressed and think about the things I don't want too.
Since my partner and daughter passed, i've had 1 partner (who was basically using me) this lasted 1.5 years (approx) so over 14.5 years, 13 years of no attention at all (And I mean NO attention, not even a wink . Must be something wrong. My dentist messed up my teeth and takes no blame, they aren't great, i'm overweight, skint, no drive, no own home and only my flatmate who takes the pee as company (my lovely cats aside! Even they are getting on a bit in age!) My Psychotherapy group don't listen, i'm often told nothing is wrong with me apart from being traumatised (that's okay then!!) yet occasionally, people (well, ladies in 30's and 40's etc) say i'm a lovely bloke.........pfffffffffffffffttttttttttttt!!!
Okay i'm ranting too much, I needed to get it all off my chest before bed. I'm getting very down, no-one ever listens (not just about painful things, but about anything!) and i'm getting angrier by the day. I've a nasty feeling something bad is going to happen soon, which means i'll have to stop posting :mad:
I'm fed up with waiting for someone nice and genuine to come into my life. I'm not asking for Britney........well I am, but I am realisticJust someone nice and gentle, who needs loving back. I've got more love than your above average bloke. I keep hearing about how girls want someone loving, gentle, someone to listen etc etc, yet all the girls I remotely like seem to have bar steward blokes and like it that way......I heard a guy in town this afternoon say he punched a bloke, and the girl replied "Excellent" and laughed, is this the average lady these days?
I understand people may not be able to see beyond my physical features, but I was hoping someone would be less than shallow. I've been told i'm not as bad looking as I say, but I am hard on myself.
I'm hopeless :wall:
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, i've gone on again :eek:
Oh well, tomorrow is another day, more housework, Wimbledon, sweat like a pig..........................
Back to the positive............Britney was on 'Flaunt' for 2 solid hours (Minus adverts!) I felt alright then...........0 -

Miroslav I am so annoyed with you saying you are hopless and NO the average lady would not laugh at the mention of violence. I know it's tought but have you tried other means of meeting people ? You sound kinda obsessive about the Britney ( oooooh the sometimes video ....) but at the end of the day it's not going to help you meet people if you are sat at home everynight watching Flaunt waiting for a snippet of her. GET OUT THERE , GET OUTSIDE YOUR COMFORT ZONE !!!
Try not to be too down on yourself > I had a terrible self image problem until not so long ago , having been 23 stone with a long term partner who constantly told me I was ugly and that no-one else would ever want me etc etc. I still don't think I'm pretty no matter what other people tell me but I am gradually starting to realise that people don't stare at me cos I'm sort sort of 5 foot ten, she man freak but that it's because I'm attractive.
Have you thought about seeing a counsellor to talk about your self image rather than your past ? I also have a very good self help book called 'the confidence to be yourself' normally I would run a mile from these but my relate woman recommended it and it truly made a difference.
Honey - there is someone out there for you but you need to believe in yourself a bit more , tough I know but you will get there.
Oh and one last thing - We are all listening , I just wish I could give you a massive squidgy hug this morning x0
