It's okay, I'll just quietly sob in this corner, maybe I will hide under my desk and hide from the big bad world......
:cheesy:
On a side note, up to this point, I account for approx 21% of posts in this thread. Far behind Lucy and her 34% of posts. But then, it is her thread after all. I am bored as you can tell."I'm not from around here, I have my own customs"

As I said on my post, I want people to actually stop and talk to me and find out my name, not just try it on for sex or pass me by with a 'hello' at the gym and know me as the lassie in the back row at the circuits class. Even me saying I've tried meeting people on the internet, the assumption is that I'm after a relationship. I am, but a friendship relationship.
Good. Now what interests do you have? Have you tried looking for local clubs, or even other boards (yes - the rumours are true - they do exist...) which have those interests as their focus?bathgatebuyer wrote: »Is that really too much to ask? It's been about 4 years since I last had dinner or a drink out with someone and life gets very boring sitting in and watching Sky Sports News night after night.
It does - been there.bathgatebuyer wrote: »I happen to think I'm a nice enough person. My nickname at school was 'the friendly cow'. People used to write that out on my music before it even got to me. So, friendly enough, but unfortunately a face like a compost heap!!!!
Warm and good for roses? Especially on valentines...
Seriously though, you need to start believing in yourself. If you meet people with the attitute "You won't like me because..." then they may try to meet your expectations.
It's not what you look like that matters, it's what's between your ears and how it shapes what comes out of your mouth.bathgatebuyer wrote: »Most of my own peers are off and married and it's a bit difficult saying to them, "Do you want to come out and do X, Y or Z at the weekend" when their inevitable commitment is their family.
Besides no one does me at the weekend... And who are X and Y anyway?bathgatebuyer wrote: »Anyhow, I ramble and have actually ended up in tears thinking about how lonely I can get. Time to get on with some work I think!!!!
Aww babe... :grouphug: :kisses3:
It's nothing to cry about. You just need to know what you want. Then - and only then - can you start a plan of action to get it.
This place should be good for you. Why don't you get chatting with people on here who interest you and who are in places you can, and would like to go. May lead nowhere, or may lead to a night of laughing and fun.
