No Honest...... It is my pal looking for love! I'll have you know I am a lady!

On a less charitable note I hear they've a speed dating night on Valentine's day (Mon 14th Feb for all lads who are bound to forget!) which I got my ticket for the other day. There was array of fine ladies getting tickets at the same time...a fiver well spent me thinks! [/QUOTE]

theres a speed dating event at the Forum on valentines day...maybe your friend should try it...

yeah thats all very well but its only up to 25!! what are the likes of me supposed to do lol enter through the door marked scrap heap or shelf x

Come to Trippets on Thursday, I'm bringing my friend and determined to get her fixed up with someone. She's a lovely lady, just a bit 'in your face' at first but she really is nice, think the 'in your face' bit is to cover up her insecurity! Come on - you won't be disappointed!

Hmmmmm, a nurse sounds sexy.... As does always happy... I hate these moody types!

But you haven't really described him very much Scoop... What does he look like? What kinds of stuff is he into apart from running? And how tall is he? That's a vital question!

Why is he 'looking for a lady'? Doesn't he enjoy being single? And more to the point, does the poor lad know that you're advertising him on the Sheffield forum?!!!!

You could always lie?

Jbee, yes my friend has asked for my help in matters of romance.
He is medium build, height etc, your avarage type of chap.
So far as I know his main interests are just running and being generally sociable and helpful!
Very nice chap, have had some interest through PM's though so you had better get in quick if you'reinterested!
To all those who have replied - I haven't passed your details on yet I am seeing him on thursday and will do so then.

You know my mate is a big fat ginger bloke and he pulls a different women every friday and saturday and some of them are fit. You know what it is? Confidence.

Your friend may look good in frankie says relax shirt but kid if he ain't the gab then he may as well just go the the dark side and try visiting the cosac.

Oh and scoop if you really want to give him a chance then when you go out with him try leaving him alone for an hour so every women who's looking at you 2 does'nt think he's with someone.

Hope this helps.

I would agree with that - I am assurred that I am not nearly as bile-inducing as I think I am, but the problem is that I think I am.. and more importantly I think WOMEN think I am too!

End result - have totally given up on finding love before I've even reached my 23rd Birthday :cry:

'Cif' used to be 'Jif'. Incredibly meaningful name change there then :P

Craig,

Having met you you're a good chap!

Of course, that's not much good coming from me, being male.... :) However, confidence is so important - build that up and you'll be beating the girlies off with a stick!

Joe :)

Hi Tracie,

It meant a lot to the Bean Counters - it was only called Jif in the UK and was Cif in the rest of Europe - probably even the rest of the world, I think.

So, the re-branding meant that the product could be shipped all over the shop without different labels, and also you could record one set of TV ad spots and such and just do cheesy voice overs to use them in different languages. And of course the usual pony-tailed marketing spod talk about common brand image... :)

Also, changing the name from Jif meant that no lnger would British men poison themselves by squirting bathroom cleaner on their pancakes, after mistaking it for Jif Lemon.... :)

Maybe the whole thing about being desperate and a professional singleton is what people find bile-inducing, and not you as a person?

I'm not trying to be mean, honestly, but just offering a view on it. With the right people it can sometimes be used in your favour as a way of getting the sympathy vote, but on the whole women seem to be looking for men who are confident and not pitiful.

Maybe just relax a bit and be happy in your own company, and women will find you more attractive. People can usually smell desperation a mile off, and it isn't attractive. "We pursue that which retreats from us."

OK firstly Snook...
I'm not trying to be mean
..you failed! That was the biggest crock of **** since..I dont know what!

I'm not even going to dignify it with any more of a response than that. :loopy:

Joe...
you'll be beating the girlies off with a stick!
..yeah, their blind person's stick! LMAO :hihi:

Well, i'm sorry that I failed, I was only trying to help after hearing the womens reaction to your posts on here in the chatroom... so it obviously wasn't a crock of ****.

The fact that you react like that leads me to believe that you don't really feel that way about yourself, rather you were using it as a line.

Sorry that I offended you, it was never my intention and I do not wish to get into an argument over this.

I think you give me more credit than I deserve... no way would I ever use a line ever so for a start you're wrong there. Also, if I were to use a line it certainly wouldn't be that.

To be honest I'm quite sure where you get off - you talk as if you know everything about me from just reading a few posts on a forum, when the fact is you clearly couldn't be further from the truth (hence the crock of **** remark - which still stands true).

Oh, and I don't believe you for one minute when you say you weren't trying to start an argument - if that were true you wouldn't have said that and definately wouldn't have been such a **** about it.

Maybe you shouldn't presume you know people before you shoot off at them about things you clearly don't have a clue about.

Honestly, I wasn't trying to argue, it really wasn't aimed just at you, it was more a general remark about peoples attitudes to being single and feeling so sorry for themselves. I am truly sorry that I offended you, and retract all my comments. You are right, I don't know you and shouldn't have used you as an example. Sorry.

I apologise too - didn't mean to go off on one, it's just if there is one thing that really annoys me it is people thinking I'm just feeling sorry for myself and should "snap out of it".

Honestly - if it were that simple don't you think I would?!

I hate feeling the way I do, and certainly would never use it in an attempt to pick up women.

Craig,

Seriously, when I spoke with you last week I found it an interesting cnversation with a nice guy.

Just treat women as possible friends rather than possible partners and I'm sure that you'll get more success.

Don't let yourself be scared by them - they're only human (Tracie included ;) ).
