[theclaud]

You're allowed those?

We're allowed one view a fortnight. But we have to choose it from a list.

I suspect her opinion of you has taken a dive then. For what its worth and I suspect that is very little you have missed a good opertunity, as long as the teacher did not have any details about you, address,home phone number etc you had little chance of being discovered.

Then again I would not put myself up as anyones roll model.

Because women are all supposed to have the same views about everything?

No but on the subject of affairs the vast majority do. Try reading a womens forum it is quite enlightening.

Is this a men's forum?

You're simply wrong, by the way. A moment's thought about the subject would tell you as much.

Crock... will you go out with me mate? We will have a great time. We can have coffee and Doughnuts.

I'd already made flapjacks.

No it is not a mens forum but I suspect the majority are men however I was suggesting the overwhelming view on a femail forum such as mumsnet would be against affairs.

You say I am wrong indeed I may well be but will you please tell me how you come to that conclusion.

The way you present on here isn't typical of any woman I've ever known. I actually thought you were a bloke for the first few months after you registered on C+, so I'd say that PS is wrong in this respect when addressing you - typical mumsnet poster you aren't.

It's not rocket science. In Crockers' story he was propositioned by a woman. To have an affair. I'm afraid I'm not familiar with Mumsnet (although you seem to be), but I don't see why it should represent women in general.

All this should probably tell you is that what you think you know about women might not be true after all...

By the way, Linfy - I wasn't on C+. I was a relative latecomer to the current forum.

So if one woman is up for an affair this disproves my supposition that the majority of women are against affairs, that is a long stretch.

As for the mumsnet thing they have a lively political forum which my partner sometimes contributes to and from that point I have perused other parts of the site, the relationship forum is an eyeopener.

Has anyone ever been in the situation of being involved in some social group or organization, and feeling an attraction for someone else within that organization, asked them out on a date and got turned down? If so, did that person feel awkward/uncomfortable in your company afterward whenever you saw them again? Is there a way around this, or is it an inevitable risk that one has to take if one wishes to date the opposite sex?

Yes. But I was the one who was doing the turning down.
He should have started by asking to go for a coffee!

Probably mixing you up with another radical feminist such as Bonj, easy mistake.

I thought you'd been around forever. I stand corrected. It's certainly been a few years though.

It is probably the way your competitive nature comes across.
