[QUOTE=“dancarter, post: 1053658, member: 122”]A question for the lads on the dating scene. Assume ye are both in your thirties?
As far as I can see, and lad in his thirties with a job, not living at home picking up women should be like shooting fish in a barrel?
My missus has at least 6 female friends, early 30s, all reasonably attractive who are gagging, and I mean gagging for a relationship. If you think about it. Not that many single fellas about. Tons of women single far as I can see. Couple of quite hot birds in my office who are sound who are single as well, they reckon its a sellers market!![/QUOTE]
My missus has a couple of decent looking female friends in their 30’s, they’d be over here telling her they’d love to find a man etc etc.
You’d be out with them then and what seem like perfectly sound looking fellas would be coming up to them chatting them up and then they tell them to fuck off. Or else they’d score some lad and he’d text them the following day and they wouldn’t have any interest.
I told them they’d all die alone if they don’t cop onto themselves.
Woman are bizarre creatures.
[QUOTE=“flattythehurdler, post: 1053690, member: 1170”]We had booked the venue within a month of our first date, and got married a year, a week and a day after it. When I asked her to marry me I got back from a work night out, crawled into bed beside her, and woke her up and asked her. In the morning, she asked if I had meant it (mindful I’d had 12 pints). I said that I certainly had meant it. She replied that if I’d asked her the second night out, she’d have said yes. Funny thing is, I’d have asked her the second night out. Been together 11 years now, married for ten.
I’d never have believed in true love or any of that stuff before that, but I was besotted from day one. After our first date, we went out every night for three weeks. We were actually engaged before she put out, as I like to remind her.
I remember going home and telling the folks, and they just looked at me like I was mad as they didn’t even know i was seeing anyone. I was fucking seething. I said to the brother that at least they could have tried to look pleased. He explained their perfectly reasonable side of it.
We laugh about it now.
Anyhow, the moral of the story is: get them when they are desperate.[/QUOTE]
That’s a truely heartwarming story Flatty. You mentioned before that your wife was a belter, did this have anything to do with your decision?
how much must you spend on grub every week trying to feed a family, it must be savage, I eat like a king on £60-£70 and I only eat Tesco finest range or waitroses
Lads get a fierce shock when they settle down and get the family going.
If you have any sort of a mortgage at all, and 2 cars and you have a bit of a long term savings plan for kids etc then 5K net a
month would just about get you by.
