Face forward - even if not moving forward

I get annoyed with the requests as well. So many never post a comment or anything. Now I refuse to add anyone who does not comment and hang around.

Most just seem to want to date me/marry me/impregnate me/have me get them a visa...but i would never add anyone unless i at least somewhat know them...or we're trading cards baby!

Well Lucy, I never get all of those offers

Mostly just "hi" or uh, well that is all they usually say!
I never even respond... I'm a snob like that.

and when do i get this shoulder massage you speak of??

Thanks Henry but I'm only famous to my doggies!

yeah i know the term, i just thought i'd waggle a free massage out of it

I just drifted onto your page and had a wee read at your blog.

Oh how I wish I had read this blog when I joined opera at first. It would have helped me lots.

At first when I joined I was bombarded with invitations that I accepted from so called people who wanted to become friends with me.
One week into my membership and 25 proposals of marriage and two to become a mummy to some man`s daughter, who had bought me a gift and wanted me to move to the USA.

I went through my friends list and deleted all of these people who had weird notions about me.

Now I have people I like and make and keep contact with through blogs and mails.

I learned the hard way, but now love my opera. And use it as it is intended to be. And I will not accept friends until have built up some communication with them first.

Hey, no one ever asked me to marry them. I don't get many pm's anyway.

Is it my breath?

Henry, I have a facebook account, however it is very different and very commercial and actually full of viruses, hence I never use it anymore.
I also have a bebo which I find is full of twenty some-things speaking some weird language that I really do not understand such as ` ye awrite man ` and other phrases I just do not like. Maybe something to do with me being Scottish and our Scottish slang.

Yes, I have discovered that the personal settings on opera and it helps. It`s good to be in control of who can get in touch.

I really have encountered some nutters on opera. But all under control now.

Hermitess,

You look like a nice well behaved dog, with sweet smelling breath.

So will you marry me?

There does that make you feel better ?

wow she is catching up - two proposals in the one day for Lindsay - Well done, you are catching up. shame about the dogs


ps- I am used to the dumb blonde jokes - thick skinned and it`s just as well cause I get plenty of them. Not just here, but at work too All in the name of fun and a wee laugh

I feel so special! Thanks Guys!

I'm already married soooo ... I'm gonna have to pass right now. Ask me again if I get divorced.

@ Henry My dogs get their teeth cleaned!

Lindsay, that`s nice your feeling special.

And at least now you have two new things to talk about.
Being proposed to twice in the one day. And by both sexes he he

And you already being married.

Very True! I have universal appeal

Oh and just FYI, if I were to take either of you up on that proposal, you must know...

Marry me, marry my dogs! We are a package deal.

Well - I`ll have to pass on that one.

Over to you Henry?

Not a dog person? They are small and cute.

And hairy - which clings to black clothes.I Like other people`s though as long as their not in my house

Yes, and mine are mostly white! I use a no-shed shampoo and brush them regularly outdoors. That helps a great deal. Although I gave up on dark colored clothing because of that. I use the sticky roller thing though to get off hair if I need too I'm prepared for all sorts of situations!

Fine fine, retract your proposal. I see you were just toying with my emotions. I'm delicate so I will need lots of caramel and buttercream icing to heal.

Oh dear. Hairy dogs. In all honesty I had a very hairy dog from a puppy till she was 15, sadly a tumour meant we had to have her put to sleep. The saddest day of my life so far. I was so brave and stayed with her, closed her eyes and walked away an emotional wreck. I stayed like that for two weeks, that was 5 years ago. I have thought many times about getting another wee dog, but I just can`t. and I feel you get far too attached to them. i love dogs. And I missed her so much. The one thing I never missed was those hairs. But if I could I would have her back hairs and all. aw if only.

I hope you heal soon and maybe Henry will change his mind

I have been comforting myself with sweets.

Death of a pet is so very sad. I've never not had a dog or some other pet. It's harder on me to have one die and just have the empty space to remind me than to go ahead after a little while and get another dog.

Pet hair really doesn't bother me as long as I'm not covered in it. I grew up on a horse and hiking in the woods with my dogs and playing with the endless kittens we seemed to have. So an outfit without some animal hair just isn't complete for me.

You will get fat

Pet`s are just so loyal and lovable. I could easy fall in love with another, but decided not to. And my working hours are long. it would not be fair to leave a pet alone . So I`m best to stay dogless, for now anyway

wait... I'm gonna get FAT?


Oh Fine Henry, I supposed it would get complicated, what with you dating and my being already married and all. Plus not living in the same country. sheesh, you people sure are picky !

*sob* Will someone marry ME?!! feeling awfully left out here since i too have not received any proposals.. I just laugh so much at the ridiculous broken English! Ok they cant help it but still. its hilarious.
i completely agree with this post, hear hear!

(and we should totally get jackets for the TCG)

OOOO Jackets!

Well I had TWO proposals yesterday and BOTH got retracted. That may be worse than none at all.

*licks the bottom of the icing tub*

Retracted? As in like, 'Oh sorry love i made a mistake i actually DONT want to marry you it turns out'?

aww but we still care, don`t we Henry ?

Yeah, pretty much Bianca.
I feel so, so, naked and raw! So, So disposed!


ok maybe not. I have a large Hispanic/Native American man to break my fall.

Bianca -- They don't want my DOGS.

WHO couldn't want my cutie pups?!! Just because Bella looks crazy and rabid in the avatar doesn't mean she is, she was yawning! Honest!

Aw but remember we do still care - don`t we Henry, where are you Henry, i need your input

Henry is probably taking a nap right about now.

See I totally already know your routine anyway.

Fine, *sniff* I'll be.. be... sorry, I'll be ok....

What?!! We should be your first priority!
*gives Henry the stink eye*

I know you care Henry. I'm just being a brat.

This must be some romance! I missed that wedding post. I will go look for it.

Henry this is a great post. I wasn't even notified. What is up with this not being notified? You are definitely one I want to be notified on!

I'm glad I decided to see what you have been up to or I wouldn't have found this post. I will be adding this to my favorite's as everyone should read this.

I too had alot of bizarre friends request. Um.... I haven't gotten any proposals either. But some of the request I have gotten shouldn't be discussed where children might read. I have to say I was very offended by them. I am a good girl and don't appreciate the sicko's out there.

I hope all is going well for you, and you are happy.
I'll try not to be such a stranger. It just seems I can hardly keep up with all that is going on. I'm forever trying to work through my notices, never to get to the end of them.

God be with you ALWAYS!!!

*doesn't get naughty notices either*




Dang, no marriage proposals or kinky stuff. I must not come across well.

They are always canned comments, or links to something, of which I have never clicked on. Some even pretend they already know you.

I'm sure they are afraid of your dogs.

Well, I have been proposed to. And asked to be a Mummy to a nine year old`s daughter. I must dig back that email for you`s to have a wee nip at he he I`ll post iton here later

But never had the kinky stuff or naughty notices I feel like you did last week L and jealous!!!

As promised girls - You can imagine my reaction to this - BLOCK!

Good day my lovely

When I was reading about you I felt something
unique in you, my daughter Elizabeth is 10 years and am very proud of
her because she is my everything, I never wanted to enter into a
relationship, but she is really new my neck saying you need someone to
call mom and above all, she feels every time they feel neglected
because her mother teach the divorce of his mother who had never set
eyes again on her, because she lives in Holland and now town.Custody is
home to me by itself on the basis of situations around the divorce.I
always feels sad when her mother complain about issues, I decided to
seek advice my cousin about how I will get someone very special and
someone to spend the rest of my life because it is really difficult to
live without a companion, which was how to introduce this site that I
can meet someone very nice and humble here really impresses me about
that are not real women like you because I never thought much dating
direct affinity.

I specialize in the following areas, oil worker and mining. Also we
haveour sevice pointin usa,africa,asia and middle east. But I am the
CEO of Ambeli Gallery Arts and Crafts was established on November 2,
2007, as a great day because that day was the birthday of my daughter.

I am a Christian and a kind of fear of God as that last visited Greece
was 1998, I have much to say about me, but few mentioned as follows, I
am ambitious, optimistic, playful, hard work dedicated, intelligent,
trusting, genuine, honest, sincere, fun and friendly man with much joy,
love and happiness to offer my true love and Ms. Right. I am very
passionate and emotional in all areas of my life. I am very responsible
and try to eat well, so I make sure to keep in shape for not having a
pot belly. I have always believed in a healthy relationship, but I have
not had in a long time, it is important to be passionate, romantic
love, with a lot of laughter to keep body and soul goes smoothly. I
have strong family values and morals in my daughter is the most
valuable and only family I have now, the best thing that has happened
to me!

I love being outdoors with my daughter and the weekend is always a
special moment for me and my daughter, my dear I am not here to mess
with your online love and heart in the event that we have a
relationship, I am a man serious-minded, and I want to assure you that
if everything goes good for us, I'd like to meet you someday so we can
see what kind of chemistry we have together, I want to let you know I'm
looking for a long term relationship with the right woman, and I hope
not to see more because I think there is something special about you
... I hope to hear from you later. Attached photos of me and my
daughter Elizabeth .. I love to hear your voice before. So please send
me your number. Or if you want to call i will indicate my number to
you, waiting to read from you soon ............

Cheers,

Much love, care and blessing.
