    I try and avoid them but maybe it's an age thing - if someone tries to chat me up there's a good chance if I dig a bit deeper they are married. I sound like a saddo here! single is good - I'll get some cats eventually...


    P.S. I'm a good girl and always walk away!

    Why is that an age thing?

    Don't be silly. We weren't born married.

    You're probably the only girl in Christendom who does! I've lost count of the amount of my girl friends who ring me crying becuase their dream man is married/engaged. Still doesn't stop them tho! :confused:
