    Where the hell is the atari jaguar option?

    There are one or two single people out there you know (and especially on the net;))

    My last girl (as a proud single man, I don't do the whole girlfriend thing yet - I am only 27) was Irish if that helps your statistics.

    There is a world of commitment between having an Other halve and dating someone.
    I hate that term.

    In the market for a foreign national.

    I've never been in a relationship with an Irish girl. Mainly because i lived abroad. Last girlfriend was Cuban. Before that she was Mexican. The rest were Americans of various ethnic backgrounds.

    I voted foreign, cuz this is an Irish-based poll.... my GF is Basque (The Basque Country - between france and spain) and I am Irish, but we live in The Basque Country (between france and spain) hope it doesnt affect the results of the poll too much :rolleyes:

    why is it that lots more blokes have foreign girlfriends as opposed to the other way around? Is it because they can't pick up Irish girls because Irish girls are not as friendly/easy? Or is it because the foreign women in Ireland want to pick up a native man? I always found meeting chicks from other countries would instantly give you a lot to talk about when you meet them, thus engaging you in conversation that can lead to phone numbers etc. etc.
    I don't live in Eire now but my mrs was Deutsch when I was back home, for 2 years.

    Oh and I'm currently riding a yank, but I'm not at home, so it doesn't count really. And no I didn't meet her off the net like all the other nerds on here going out with yanks.

    What a lovely attitude you seem to have. I'm with a polish lass for the last 3.5 years. Must do something about it soon I guess.
