my top tip is for people to realise
it's ok to be single. You get to do your own stuff and no one cares if you spend all your money on clothes or really shit DVDs. Instead people tend to dive into really fucking shit relationships that are utterly soul destroying purely because they believe they should adhere to the pressures of society and if you're single you're some kind of freak.

Seriously people, it's ok *pats heads and gives out cookies*
Also, 11 days till my birthday so I hope you all have decided what you're going to get me

I'm going to get you a boyfriend...sounds like you need one

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:24, Reply)

I don't think I do.
Unless I don't have to see him that much. Maybe once a month

You need an oil rig worker; rich and hardly ever around

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:36, Reply)

oooh that could work

( TGB checking Off Topic is still shit at, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:36, Reply)

you'd have to not mind him being someone else's ship-wife while he was on the rig

I always thought I would make a perfect mistress.
But I don't even get chatted up by married men.


And it's wrong.....obviously.
( girlinthehole, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:41, Reply)

I always wondered how much being a mistress would involve listening to the guy bitch about his wife

( TGB checking Off Topic is still shit at, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:42, Reply)

I could handle that.
Just switch off and say there there now and then.
( girlinthehole, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:44, Reply)

What if he started crying
saying how you were a terrible mistake and he loved his wife really, even if she did reverse his car into his mother
( TGB checking Off Topic is still shit at, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:45, Reply)

punch to the kidneys
it's the only way

*shrugs*
It can't be any worse than being told they don't want to see you any more IMMEDIATLY AFTER HAVING SEX WITH YOU. (Single bloke btw).
( girlinthehole, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:48, Reply)

Ouch, punch to the nutsack is the only correct response to this

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:51, Reply)

And people wonder why I have low self-esteem.

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:50, Reply)

sounds like a good plan then

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:43, Reply)

I quite like being a freak : )
I'm going to pay Lab to be nice to you all day.
( girlinthehole, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:26, Reply)

can you not pay me to be nice to him
It will freak him out and I can then afford more £3 pyjamas. THREE POUNDS!!
( TGB checking Off Topic is still shit at, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:34, Reply)

BARGAIN!!!
How about you both pay me to be nice to everyone and I buy myself some pyjamas?
( girlinthehole, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:38, Reply)

Because you're nice to everyone anyway

( TGB checking Off Topic is still shit at, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:40, Reply)

Woohoo!
Easy money!
( Labia Majora You keep on talking but it makes no sense at all, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:37, Reply)

You have an excellent point
mind you I ended up going to the dinner last night and everyone was paired up so neatly. It was a bit sad.
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:27, Reply)

Yeah paired up so neatly until one of them goes out and the other doesn't want to go then guilt trips the one that did go for going even though they said they did want to go what they meant was they didn't want the other one to go

I'll tell you, on your birthday, that i've been watching episodes of Pawn Stars I've not previously seen on the History Channel, and that you should have a look at the schedule.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:29, Reply)

you are right
I would have relished the chance to be single for a while if I hadn't fallen immediately from the last relationship into this one.
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:30, Reply)

I've been single for a good chunk of my life and it was great.
Just crap when you don't want to be and can't find anyone.
( girlinthehole, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:31, Reply)

I was basically single until I was about 21, and have been with one of two people ever since.
when I was single it was shit, because I was fat and geeky with long hair. I'd be much better at it now, with the vastly increased self-confidence, but I'm happy the way things are!
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Wed 9 Mar 2011, 9:35, Reply)

Same here
Though instead of fat I was goth and somewhat effeminate.
