(my ex was a workaholic, the money and the Aston Martin were fab but after a while, it got boring) has the imagination to buy gifts without prompting,
A chap I dated for a number of years in my early 20's thought he could buy his way out of anything, i.e. let me down.... buy me an expensive gift. He just didn't get it. The best gift I ever got was a charity bookmark of my favourite childhood cartoon character, which my OH got me. He got it as a little surprise and because I love reading. The majority of women like little surprises that mean something not grand gestures and no time together.
Useless, when you do find someone keep it simple. A picnic or home cooked meal or bag of chips shared walking along the beach can be more romantic than any fancy restaurantCC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J0 -

I recently met someone at a work event who had just got married - he met his wife through eHarmony. We had a good old chat about it and he said the company was really thorough in the questionnaire you fill out - even down to how tidy you are as a person. Apparently that's how they make sure the match is right. He didn't get any 'offers' for the first two months and then found his second 'match' to be THE one.
He is middle aged, a nice bloke but not outstanding in career or looks and managed to find true love by leaving it to the professionals... you could give that a go.:hello:0
