....you have my sympathy but, no, I still won't marry you.

S'alright. I'll just talk to myself then. I'll probably end up in an argument though.

I need to release so here's an update:

So again my lovely, dear sweet female friend this time got me over for a cuppa last week and we funnily get on to the subject of dating. She had a brief out pour on the bliss of marriage and then mentions a 'friend' her husband has who is also it would appear a rather happy singleton. Before she had finished i was already thinking, 'please leave this poor soul alone'. So there is an intention of a meet and greet at her daughters upcoming birthday party, oh joy.

I do find it quite sweet. Her and her husband found it comical that this guy fills his time doing exactly what he pleases while they argued over who was going to make tea.

Anyways I have decided I'm ready to take it a bit more seriously and therefore signed up to online dating... more joy, what could possibly go wrong? (Enter sarcastic eyebrows). I could prove my point by mentioning that one of our oldest friends is on said dating site. The headline of 'separated and looking for fun' probably wasn't what he wrote in his wedding anniversary card over the weekend... Regardless, dating is fun!

;)

I was single for 16 months between separating from my ex-husband and getting my current lover.

If I'm honest, it was a great time in my life. I learnt to be independent again, learnt that I was perfectly capable of managing to run a family and home alone, regained alot of lost confidence. When I stated seeing my boyfriend, it was more to do with a feeling that I was missing out on male company than anything (and I really mean company, you dirty minded lot). I wasn't really in the market for a serious relationship.
I'd known him for many years and knew that he was trustworthy and a good person, first date night I fell completely in love - never looked back. He's the love of my life, we're just about to celebrate 5 years together.

Isn't this perfect for you? If you meet said lady & she is as happy with her life as you are with yours, then between you you can silence all the hassle by just pretending to go around together, it might be that you could develop a friendly relationship without all the other hassles.

Who had 4 days on the bet??

Lots could go wrong
It would seem the internet is a den of iniquity for several married old acquaintances (certainly no good friends). Given three of them are on the site proclaiming singledom, plus the messages i have received from others... i have decided this is not the right place for me. It hasn't put me off but it's given me a lot of food for thought...:whistle:

I think you need to spend a bit more time reading what people write before wading in.
Oh forgive me I am so sorry I shall do as you demand in future

I am 52 and wouldn't want to be single, IMO, single people go crackers quicker. Seen it happen to friends, they go "odd", it's really sad.
