Pity...

Still, no doubt love and soul mates exist. God too while we're at it. After all, what would the alternative be..? :rolleyes:

Love at first sight, leading from that, seems a rather immature expectation, when instead something born from understanding, knowledge of the other person, etc.

That, and if he's really really cute.....:rolleyes:

and what happens when you fall in love [supposedly] with someone on the pc that you ahve no idea what they look like, then you see them and one of 2 things happen, 1, you love them more, but this is in fairy tale land, and 2, [the more probabble you dont like the look of them!!!

which means looks do count for something.....

It's been my experience that people who claim that beauty is only skin deep are often:

Lying
Disturbed
Blind
Ugly (and hence have an interest in this being true)
Atari Jaguar (A combination of a number of the above...)

FI, love over the pc is only the modern pen pal - and why should it not be possible - the only difference is that people were far more honest with their pen pal - pc is that bit different - anyhow I much prefer the idea of a soul mate than love at first sight - a soul mate is for ever (and anyone who knows any couple that are soul mates will feel it).

love at first sight is a thing made in holywood, its the thing that made disney huge. dose not and will not ever exist, you might think your in love but as soon as the drugs or the drink wears off its not that hot. romance died with the horse and cart.

four_star · 04-04-2002 09:28AM

it's lust at first sight and all of us experience it

lol, totally agree.........happens to me all the time
too bad they are always taken or gay!

being a single women is hard , I mean jaysas men, why cant you just walk up to us and ask us out! I am tired of letting moments pass because I dont want to have to be the one to always make the first move!! I wish for the days of old when it was the mans job to make the first move, I hate that you expect us to do all the work now! anyway, enough of that.
Is it so much to ask for a single, nice,loyal, funny lad with aspirations and goals? do they exist anymore?
single life can be great, but it can also really suck sometimes :P

francie brady · 04-04-2002 07:17PM

Fancy going out sometime?;)

where are you?
do you ahve any femail friends you can go out with, my problem is i dont have any female friends to go out wiht hence i dont get to go out.

im in Dublin, maybe we should go out sometime and really show them!!!!!

I believe in lust at first sight, which can be confusing.

On love at first sight, I sometimes know that when I see someone that it's highly likely that I will fall for them. But the actual love bit kicks in later. I don't think you can be in love with anybody at first sight as I think you can only love someone if you know them. You can however fall instantly in love with the idea that your in love with them.

I think I've just also discovered why I'm single.

tell ya what fi, when I am back in ireland we can hook up some time...I wont be there till july

try and have some fun till then

same to you too francie

fi · 04-04-2002 08:16PM

i think the fact i ahve 3 children is a real scare thing. man dont want to be an instant dad if they arent already.

all the younger men just want sex and no commitment

and the older ones are eitehr married wanting a bit on the side, and because im single / seperated with children im so desparate ill do it with them!!!!! so they think!!!!

others are georgous but so in love with themselves not to notice anyone else!!

i wonder is being a lesbian as much hassle!!!!

Augmerson · 04-04-2002 08:16PM

Can anyone regail us with a story of Love at First Sight? I seem to have lost my Mills and Blooms books.

Jesus, to be perfectly honest I think I'm with Herr Amp on this one.

Btw Amp, a/s/l????

ok well we could ahve a meeting with all the people who are interested... we could post where we are going to meet and everyone is welcome to join us??

how does this sound to everyone?

we could meet somewhere central like knightsbridge in the quays
we could find love!!!!!
or are we looking for lust!!!!

IRISHLILY24 · 04-04-2002 08:20PM

well, I am NO lesbian in any manner of speaking, I love the men and all thier parts (except thier brains ofcourse)

, But I do understand how hard it is out there, believe me. I know its harder for you fi, with children and all, so you'll probably be lookin' for a family man with maybe kids of his own or whatnot. It will happen, ya just have to put yourself out there

or let a friend hook you up with someone, as long as you get out there maybe that person will turn out bad but he could have some frineds that arn't

i had been talking to a guy on the net for about 6 months i knew everything about him an knew he was in love with someone else in the states. i dubped my b/f for lying to me as he had been seeing his x wife on the side so i ended it and was feeling down so this other guy said he would come round to keep me company, up to this we had no idea what we looked like

he sent me a picture of him sunburnt a few years erlier, i thought nothing of it to be honest, thought he looked young.

he arrived at my door and my jaw hit the floor i was hooked and was in love on the spot, i could feel it as did he.

later i was to find out he had the same reaction to seeing me!!

we fell more and more inlove, then it ended. took me ages to get over it and i ahvent really dated since as im sort of afraid of that pain again, i had never been in love before nad havent been since.

would so love to feel it again though

im liking the sound of this meeting the more i think of it!!!!

The Corinthian · 05-04-2002 10:38AM

Personally, I've always felt I was a lesbian trapped in a man's body...

...this thread is getting very muppety, and I'm not helping...

Very sorry Fi, I'm not male, but female, and I do think what I say!

And no it is not a typical male thing, if women were more able to accept and deal with their lusts and instincts, they would feel much less frustrated.

Be free for F*** sake!, you don't need to follow social stereotypes. Enjoy yourself, be yourself and stop thinking that you should behave like your Great Grand Mother! :P
