    This one is ABsolutely true, on me Mum's eyes, those here who know me may recognize me as not of the prevaricating type, no need for that. Anyway this happened several years ago in me travels. .. as it turns out I've been fortunate enough to have lived in not a few countries and have visited perhaps 30 or so in toto around the big blue marble.

    Well sir a few years ago I found meself in country X let us say... pardon the anonymity there but really the particular country don't matter... and there I woke up one day and says to myself, "Well Draggie old boy here you are 5 zillion miles from nowhere and no relationship, nothing, let's start this thing called life up anew here shall we?"

    So I get up and start looking - I go to the frequent places, pubs, etc., ...across Internet, across everywhere, and pretty soon I finds a lass who seems real promising... soon we are together for months and I start to learn the real truth behind the facades.

    What I have picked... AGAIN... for the umpteenth time... is a lady who has either 1) has some addiction which she tries to hide (unsuccessfully) ... 2) comes from an alcoholic home (or addicted household) and the family members are all screwed up... 3) been abused by a family member or an authority figure in her upbringing. 4) shows serious indicators of sociopathy herself (perhaps because her mum drank while she was preggers) or - grand total 5 *SOME combination of ALL of the *above!

    Now what irony is this, I sit here contemplating some mornings when I log into this board... how many times do we do this? I mean, how it is that I can go to a completely public place, be it a pub or even an internet board... looking for a simple life and person who is just clean and sane... and pick out and am attracted to *the one *from * hell!

    Anyone here gie me some insight? My picker seems brokener thye further I gets.



    p.s.
    interersted responding candidates should please leave personal address, phone number(s), full picture(s), bank account information, religious affiiation(s),and 5 sober references.

    p.p.s.

    if board adviser should choose to edit same this would be understood >wink.

    How about not picking up lone women in pubs if you're looking to avoid drinkers?

    Yeah and if she carrys round small plastic bags of white powder then she's probably bad news too.

    The problem is that everybody is at least a little bit f**ked up in their own particular way.



    Except for me of course, I seem to be the only one who's perfectly normal
