I think this is the year for me to find love folks

Over the past few years I have been on a few dates, and I have just scared the ladies off Mind you they have all been so bloody boring, but there are some lovely ladies that I work with at the festivals but i have been to shy with, so I am going to be more proactive with them this season

Some excellent points made, sadly I seem to be the last one left in my group insisting that the emporer is "tackle out", Coincidently there were similar, albeit more abstract points made in a new episode of South Park that was on in the States llast week - it was essentially saying that people who settle down for the sake of it are so dull all they end up looking forward to is the next episode of greys anatomy...

The only scenario in which I see myself settling down is if I'm in a situation where I'm "batting well above my average" and need to make some sort of a commitment to continue doing so (the batting thing isn't just about looks, I'm not that shallow, it would literally have to be a complete package, and seeing as I'm a realist I can't see that scenario playing out)

Incidently was having a conversation with one of the succubi... sorry I was having a conversation with my mate's girlfriend the other night and was told I'm too picky because I told her that a girl who I'm friends with was getting a bit overly friendly and I don't see her that way and didn't want the same things as she probably does (all her friends are my friends gfs and are all settled down and looking a marriage) so I expressed my relief when she started getting off with some bloke at a club a few weeks back - meant I didn't have to turn her down and friendship could resume. Now surely its not just me - but how can refusing to partake in the incestual nature of my group of friends make me picky, surely it makes them desperate!

You seem a nice bloke, and you are good at making people laugh....I think laughter is one of the most important things in life

Can I just check though, when you say 'season', you mean festival season, yes? Or was it mating season you meant??

Stop it. I have visions of men going around bars sniffing women to see if they are in "season".

To be honest when it comes to talking to women that I really like I clam up. I spent 2 weeks working with one poor girl at the Wickerman, and I never said a word to her. She got really upset towards the end as I used to sit around the fire at night laughing and joking, and then if we ended up on our own I would run off

I'd love it if humans sniffed each other's arses as a way of greeting

[Lithium05]

You should give them fair warning that if they don't stop nagging you to partner up that you will do your upmost to split them up... It can't be that difficult as it already sounds like most of them are "enjoying" the worst side of coupley life! Don't join the conspiracy, you must fight it and join the resistance!

[hombrederayo]

just thought Id chip in while we're on the subject of partners trying to change each other, thats definitely why my ex is now my ex....she wanted me to do certain things to be the "complete" person she wanted, and then we realised together, that that was just ridiculous; if there were things about each other that we didnt like and werent prepared to accept/compromise on, then no much point to it...and there endeth the relationship

LOL... just need to work on the mating dance.

I'm quite similar... Am OK with women who are un-obtainable (not that I'm objectifying), which can work out differently as somethimes they aren't as unobtainable as I thought , but am quite shy if I'm round a lass I like and think I'm in with a chance. Not a very good state of affairs anyway.

[Peevis]

I think the problem I have is that I become very aware of first impressions. Usually I don't give a shit and just pound in their in my rather blunt manner. But if I'm interested I start thinking, "Should I be funny or try to look deep and enigmatic?". "Will she think I am shallow and superficial?" "Oh God please tell me that draught isn't my dick hanging out again"

Get out there and be men, chaps. No one will think any less of you. I promise. And you will get plenty nuff more 'nani!

[Peevis]

If you're lucky (and careful) you won't give/get anything venereal either

[Radar]

Sorry Mum!

[Goblinz]

Ive recently refined a mating dance (ie got pissed, did a silly dance, got some attention )

Im very similar, though I come accross as someone with a short attention span (when drinking), I'll be chatting away with someone then get up to get a drink or something see a mate, chat to them, see another mate chat to them, suddenly remember I was chatting to someone else, go back and find theyve found someone new to talk to

[Lithium05]

Isn't that normal behaviour whilst out drinking

[rabid]

I fear you're underestimating the silliness of this particular dance

[sadwitch]

Think you need the sugar.

Date, er, take a girl out and try and find out what she keeps in her knickers.

You going to Download this year?

[Lithium05]

Unfortunately not.. I need to save my holiday time for China.... Kicking myself now i've seen the lineup

[Glitter+Vodka]

My mates are crap. Emailed them all yesterday to see who was up for the pub at any point this weekend, and haven't heard a thing back from anyone. No doubt spending every spare minute with their other halves.
