    Well again Guy's

    where do all these ideas come up, I find we talk about the most amazing thing in our local... We were chatting about who we turn to when little or big problems arise in the house hold.. Who do we trust enough to talk to and listen to their advice.

    I used to go to the old man, he's passed on now, so we tend to lean on someone else....

    Who do you go to for advice?

    When I'm in trouble, I normally lean on any witnesses so they don't give any evidence.

    Father Jack?
    Kind of depends on the problem. Some things I handle on my own, some friends are better for certain types of advice than others, depending on age, gender, life experience, etc.

    I don't really have any one person.. just a few really good friends who I go to at different times for different things.

    Usually Johnny Walker or Jim Beam.

    I trust no one.
    So i don't lean on anyone for advice. It ends up biting me on the back side.

    When the goverment and the Banks are in trouble they lean on me with a knee in the lower back.

    Is that the kind of thing your getting at ?

    If I have some worries or troubles I usually talk them out with my twin and/or my hubby... so I vote those two.

    Why is there an option for mistress but no option for friends? :confused: :pac:

    I lean on all options bar mistress or Fr Jack plus occasionally friends, depending on the trouble... :cool:

    I tend to lean against a wall or pillar, staring pensively, asking God for help, and if I'm lucky enough, I might just answer.

    My OH or my sisters are always great in a crisis, however my friends are great when the solution is to drink til it goes away

    Why aren't "friends" included in the poll?
    I'd most talk to my parents, my brother or sister and close friends.

    me ma, or arthur


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,295 ✭✭✭✭Duggy747


    Depends on what you mean by trouble...

    I haven't really ever been put in a bad position where I need outside help, if I need shìt taken care of I take care of it the best I can myself. At least I know I won't spread the word about any trouble I'm in or call up a favour in return!

    Though when I'm in that kind of emergency I usually just head down to docks and throw a lady of the night a tenner for her service. :pac:

    Maybe see if she can "rub" out a solution!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,070 ✭✭✭✭My name is URL


    Nobody. I just pretend it's not happening and do something to keep me distracted

    Sorry I didn't include friends It was an error? Apolls?

    I'd imagine friends would be one of the more popular answers, so maybe the poll could be amended?
    The "Father Jack" option is winning at the moment, so I'm going to take a wild guess that people aren't taking it that seriously! :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,448 ✭✭✭✭Cupcake_Crisis


    Honestly, if its a fairly big problem i tend to just keep it to myself! Most of my friends solution to any of life's troubles is to drink until you dont care anymore and thats great for the smaller things. And my parents have enough on their plate so i just muddle on.

    I tend to chat with my twin and other sisters about any problem I have. We all get on really well.

    I repress and internalise it until it causes a psychological schism.

    Its going great so far :cool:

    I generally depend on myself when in trouble.:D Dislike input from others, it'll make me more stressed. ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,893 ✭✭✭Davidius


    Going to people for advice? I don't pester people with my trivial troubles, pfft. After all I know everything.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 154 ✭✭Soul Cake Duck

    My mother mostly, sometimes friends but I mainly lean on myself, only I can deal with the problems I come face to face with, friends and family can advise me on the situation, but only I can sort it out. It's not always fair to go to others, you know?

    I'm one for running to the wife, I must admit. Sure the women are great for sorting things out?.. They should get a whole lot of good women to run the Country and we'll be all back to normal in no time..
