@ Al <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ROFL.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ROFL.gif" alt="" />
Oh I love you! I really do!

@ Dragh
You really have to believe me. All my friends say that I am a woman of a great taste when it comes to men. And I am not joking when I say that you are really handsome. As I have told before, we learn to appreciate beauty -and show openly our admiration- from a small age in here. Therefore I am completely honest...
And astonished of course <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />

@ Jan
I am so glad that you did it! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/XmasJump.gif" alt="" /> You know my opinion for your lovely dark hair <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> And be carefull... my bucket is ready if you have any doubts <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" />

@ Ube
From what I have seen, you have great options to become a really, really handsome man. Give yourself the time and you will see <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> I am even betting with you about that <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" />

I have said it before and I will say it again, Dragh you are absolutely gorgious!!
If I wasn't married I think you would have a stalker!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

@ Janggut
Glad to see your face in the forum also. You already know my opinion about that <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />

And Alrik;
I knew I saw you before <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> That is why you can write such nice stories, you enharited the talents from your brother!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" />

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" />

It does make me feel better about myself, still haven't had much luck with ladies ever :s But I know it's because I never open up.

On forums it seems all so easy, but irl...

There is no need to have luck to be with a lady Dragh. Just courage to show your lovely you. And I mean what kind of person you are. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

The first thing you need to do is get past that first hurdle.
Who you are and who they are inside does not matter at the first hurdle.
Hold an aire of confidence about yourself, not arrogance.
Even if that aire is an illusion, girls sense that aire like a magnet, and are drawn to it.
When you talk to girls Never talk about yourself, unless they ask something about you.
Then answer their question with picturesque words.
Mainly it should be you asking them the questions and listen to their answers.
Pay attention to them.
Be romantic, be very romantic.
When you part ways, look deep into their eyes and
kiss their hand like a knight would.

I know this sounds cheesy to a guy, but girls here in America
really love guys who treat them like princesses.

I always did (treated a girl like a princes)
and I always meant it.

So, if I ever go to a party in the U.S I know what to do now <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />...

All girls from every country I've ever been in
have always liked romance and being treated
like she was the only girl in your eyes.

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/offtopic.gif" alt="" />
And what happens when you get bored to act like a knight?

I never did get bored.

But, even if I and she, were never meant to be,
being a true gentleman is always first and foremost.
One does not need to be disgraceful if a parting is called for.

I have been hurt myself.
The shoe can be placed on the guy too.
And it does carry a heavy burden.
I am not perfect, but good is good.
One should treat a woman always
like she is the only girl in ones eyes.

Tsel

Note: I am being sincere

Drag be yourself that's all.
The girl has to love you just as you are.
If she does not, she is not the right girl. Forget her.

From what I can tell Ladies like humor...funny guys. Dragh...as Ive said youre a funny guy <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ROFL.gif" alt="" />

Hm, I'd add that it might be good for you to look out in areas where you have your hobbies. I mean that a hobby that you share with a woman could lead to friendship ... and then more ...

I don't know, I just think so. Would make sense this way, imho.

Well I don't know... Nero I think is right. I prefer men that can make me laugh. Not being silly but with nice sense of humour. Plus I always liked men that were sincere to me and never lied. I can live without red roses but I can not live with an hypocrite. Oh and I always liked men that respected my beliefs and did not want to dominate me. I need my "space" sometimes and if someone can not understand it then I suppose we are not meant to be together.

Me and my mate are together for 13 years now but I do not know if I would be with him if he could not respect my decisions.

@ Janggut

First of all i hate hypocrisy and your post is full of hypocrisy !
You know that you are good looking and you just want to hear the people say :
"Oh no jang you are wrong, you are so beautiful." tsk tsk tsk....
I prefer men without beard. When i see a man with a beard i always think that he is someone who don't have enough confidence in himself.
Your general look reminds me more my friends from Madagascar than the people from China or Viet Nam.

Barta

Tsel, I know all that, still words are so much easier than acts.

I keep hearing "Romance is dead" but I can't believe it, to me everyone who says it, no-matter what level of relationship their in, doesn't know romance when it hit them like a brick to the head.

What I meant with luck with ladies, is based on the fact I do believe in romance, and I haven't felt anything like it in years.

Barta, I'm always myself, the same reserved young man that loves rock, sporting, and beeing silly, sorry Luc my humor is all about sillyness... beeing reserved isn't the best characteristic to meet girls now isn't it, but that's who I am.

But enough talk about me, this is the camera whore thread. thank you all for the support, you lovely great bunch of friends, I hope once to find the courage to go for it, with good or bad result maybe it's that one time I really need. Altho recently I have been approached 100% it wasn't romance, not from my side. But we became friends.

remind me to take some piccehs of my dearest Duo the cat.

Do you respect his decisions as well ? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

girls, ladies.

Ive heard eyecontact is crucial, if so I'll have to work on that, a lot.

alrik, you refering to who now?

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/offtopic.gif" alt="" />
Sorry, one last off topic post, so sorry again.

I know for an absolute fact that if I would have simply acted myself, I would have never hit it off with my beloved. She would have ignored me. She even told me so later in our marriage.
Girls do the same thing by eating only salads on dates
and then saying, "Oh, I'm to full. I couldn't eat another thing."
What I said was not a game to string a lady along.
My words were of pure sincerity.
I was only talking about getting past that first hurdle.
Then the two can grow closer in getting to know one another.

I admit I am not a touchy, feely, cuddly, kind of guy.
But
I always remembered my beloved's birthday.
I always remembered our marriage anniversaries.
I always remembered the anniversary of the day we met.
I even still have the piece of paper
she wrote her phone number on when we first met.

When she had a hard day I rubbed her feet.
When she was late home I had dinner ready for her.
Every single day before I left for work I wrote her a special I Love You note.
Everyday and often I told her I Love You as I looked into her eyes.

Granted all of this is not first date stuff,
but I would have never known that love if I acted like my usual self.
But lucky for me I found love that day.
I'll never be the same.

Tsel

It's nice to see all of you, you look great. These are all very nice pics indeed. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I'll add my word on the <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/offtopic.gif" alt="" /> subject. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
Tsel, I don't see what you say you're doing as not being yourself, it's only efforts and self-giving in order to light the fire and to keep it burning. A love relationship can hardly live and survive by itself only, it has to be worked for and that's what you do. Isn't that fundamentally being yourself, although the means taken don't look like yourself?
Remaining ourself is crucial imho (in a fundamental way, that is, because we all have points to work on and have compromises to do) and isn't in contradiction with making efforts in order to build/maintain a relationship.

Sorry, but why exactly do you think so? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" /> You mean, it's like not showing your "true" face... cause not having enough self confidence?

What about other reasons for a beard? Like laziness or lack of time... I am quite lazy and don't manage to find time for shavin every day for example.

Plus, I do think that beards look good in general. Of course, it depends on what kind of beard and if it suits the face and so on. But generally beards are nice... are kewl. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
