NO emc ! just incase no one fancies me, how depressing is that ! that would really rub it in, like being the last to be picked for the netball team , lol . No im going to stick to eating pickled onions out the jar for now. I think all the single people should make the effort to go to the next forum drinks
I think it's more that men are just a bit more embarrassed about going to singles events.....they feel a bit funny suggesting it to their mates so with no-one to go with they just don't....Soooo annoying that they're rubbish at stuff like that as I'm fab and am just going to waste!

I?m back from the pub and yes I didn?t meet anyone?. as usual. I?m up for a singles night bring it on. Got my own teeth, no beer gut, a job, no debt, wash regularly, not mental, not a divorcee?what else was there. See there are some of us out there!


Reading this thread you?d think all the problems are with the men and all the 30 + something woman are perfect.


I?m not doing f#cking speed dating though

My daughter just hooked me up with a solvent, good looking, intelligent, sporty guy who I got on really well with - only problem is that he's under 28 and I'm not!! Should I go for a possible short-term romance with handsome young dude, or should I stick it out until I find 'the one' that might last into old age?? Hmmn, hard choice. Get it while you can has always been my motto!!!! But maybe I should grow up!


What say you wise old tarts who understand my predicament??

Why wait for the prune which may never arrive when you have the chance of a bite at the succulent plum now? If you get on with him - what's a few years? I have 2 sets of friends who have juicy plums for husbands...one involves a 10-year age difference, the other a 17-year difference...both couples are very happily married. Go for the plum before someone beats you to it...


Oh, and enjoy!

Lol, I have had a much younger partner before, but this guy is totally different. Really switched on and intelligent. Plus he thinks I'm great, so far, lol! I'm still pinching myself ro see if I'm dreaming, but will take it slow. Once bitten and all that!

Sorry my last post/reply above sounds a bit negative, I think genuinely that single guys are fearful of going to a singles drinks do. After all there is situation where alcohol, conversation & girls all turn up at once. For some this is a dream & a nightmare rolled into one so they back out, even though they kick themselves after.


If you do want to organise an "event" then maybe a social activity like 10 pin bowling (Hollywood at Surrey Quays) will work, the less confident can hide a bit by getting into the bowling & the girls can see how the boys handle them selves. The conversation & booze can flow later.


It's a bit cheesy I know but good harmless fun.



Who knows there may be a few "lucky strikes" ( tishhh booom ) thrown in.




W**F

Of course darling - aren't we all!!

There are single guys around - but they usually are the wrong types!! Or I am very unlucky!!


I think the single nights are daunting for girls too (well me personally).. I did speed dating once only to support a friend (I was actally seeing someone at the time) - it was fun - but I probably wouldnt do it for myself - would definately hit a shy note...


Instead of a singles night, how about a girlie night out??


I dont know about other people here, all my friends seem loved up and fail to realise that if they dont go out with me, then there is less chance that by the time the meet me again and ask "so are you seeing anyone", that the answer will be "yes"!! :)

I have a friend in the British army who I write to occasionally because he has no family here in the UK. He is posted in Germany and would have been an ok catch if I were ever to be in the same country as him when I was actually single!! Does anyone want to take him off my hands??


He is due back in the UK just before Christmas and he's a total sweety. He's another young one though - and I've never been there - just incase you were wondering!!!

Why don't you single gals post a description of yourselves and the type of guy you are looking for, like height, length, age range, personality, etc?


If you want to be really adventurous - set up a disposable hotmail account and post it with your 'personal ad' to maintain privacy.


You never know - Mr Right might be reading this thread.

    • Why is the name a big of a red flag? Blighty is a common name for the UK whatever people might think.
    • The only election which counts is the General Election.  There is still strong resentment for fourteen year's of Conservative rule. They squeezed the working class's way to hard, then they squeezed the middle class, but somehow the upper class never got touched, funny that.   There is also new resentment for Labour because of the utter balls up they've made of things since coming to power nine months ago. The majority of the population (or at least those with an ounce of common sense) want these clowns out of office ASAP because they see the damage they are doing to UK plc. They squeezed the pensioners, then the farmers and then business. They made and broke promise after promise, or just didn't tell the truth or say what they where going to do, otherwise known as merely lying to get elected. Inflation may be falling but the cost of things in the shops and utility bills keep on rising, the direct opposite of what they promised. They will never be trusted once they are ousted from power in about four and a half years time.   Everything they do and touch causes further harm, led by three stooges, Rayner, Reeves and balls'less Starmer, who couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. He still thinks he's a solicitor at the DPP. Rather than spending week upon week getting involved in international politics he needs to be sorting out the UK's issues, sadly he's not up to the job and nor are his Cabinet.  Society needs a mix of people with different skills to prosper, not more and more graduates who can't get jobs in what they studied in.   Reform is the current anti establishment party, which will hopefully wither away back to where it came from.  The Liberals and Greens, well what can you say apart from using them as another alternative vote of dissatisfaction, but neither will come to power.  The country seriously needs stability and a Government that stands up for and represents it's people, not what MP's want but what the constituencies want and need.  Government needs to become far more open and transparent, it needs to be seen to be doing its job, doing what MP's are elected to do,  working for the people in the constituencies, getting back to basic principles and rebuilding the trust which has been lost by successive party's immaterial of them being, red, blue, light blue, yellow, green or some other colour.     
    • That’s very insulting! You are basically calling 17 million people that voted to leave the EU ‘thick’.        Brexit happened Sue.  Boring graphs!  Calling Nigel Farage a plastic patriot is also very insulting seeing as he and the Reform Party have had a landslide victory all over England.
    • These charity collectors are often classed as chuggers.  It can be scandalous that the charity/admin may keep a huge percentage of your donations and a tiny percentage is  actually given to the charity.   I can not speak for individual collectors - but it common practice.
