Thinking... had to cancel 3 appointments because of the weather conditions: snow and icy roads. Not chuffed about that.

Add what you have to offer a woman and what kind of woman and/or relationship you're hoping to have.
As for the bit you got now... go over it again and put in some periods or commas where needed. It's a bit messy.

Documentary Close Encounters Down Under - 2022

Watched a few episodes and it's really good!

Seriously PO that my photo got deleted, again. And again with the same nonsense argument:
Your face has to be in view and you have to smile.
My face was in view and I did smile.

Are we dealing with an AI entity here? Utterly ridiculous. I'm fuming.

Jaws and Jaws 2
For lack of something new that I'd like to watch...
A good shark movie never wears thin :D

Happy New Year everyone! May all your dreams come true in 2026!

I too would love to find this great partner. The one who complements me.

But thing is, if you cannot even be happy on your own, how do you think you're going to be happy in a relationship?
Do you all really think someone else can fill in the void you feel?
You gotta do that yourself.
That way your life is good whether you're single or not.
Then a partner becomes the icing & the cherry on the cake, not the cake. You gotta bake that yourself.

Unless you're looking for a co-dependent relationship.

Clingy?
You want someone who's clingy???

Makes me wonder if Google Translate came up with the wrong word and you don't know the proper meaning of it OR if you've actually never been in a relationship.

Take it from me, clingy is not what you want.

Labels generally don't bother me much.
I always feel they make life easier as they make things clear without needing ridiculously lengthy explanations.

Feeling happy that last night's dinner with my kids, son in law, granddaughters and mum was so good!
We dined at the restaurant where my son is chef. His treat. I had a wonderful time!

Thinking... pretty soon I gotta keep the cats indoors due to fireworks.
Next year it's going to be forbidden. Good thing too. Too much illegal fireworks last number of years. All ridiculously loud stuff making it sounds like a friggin warzone out there.

How does that have anything to do with "on here"?
Maybe spend a little less time judging everyone on here so you'd know there actually are all kinds of groups that share certain traits and characteristics.
Then you could form you own opinion on it and contribute to a conversation instead of just knocking others all the time.

Good points from all of you. Thank you!

Gravelridge... great reply, and nope, I had not thought of that.
Thanks!

Someone elsewhere asked the questions what generation you are and mostly what type you are in a romantic relationship.

Generations meant are Babyboomers, Gen X etc.

I never gave that much thought but Googled it anyways.
I am one of the first Gen Xs, which means that if I want a man who's a few years older he's going to be a Babyboomer.

Reading about it I truly am a Gen X. I can relate to almost all qualities of one.
Looking up how they are in a love relationship I again can relate almost 100%.

Then I checked how a Babyboomer is in romantic relationship and I got a bit of a sinking feeling while reading, hihi.
A cross check said that it is possible but requires both to be flexible and open to learning from the other.

I'm thrilled. Not. Maybe I should go for a man same age only or slightly younger.
At least then he'll also be a Gen X.
I'm not so interested in someone with obsolete and stale beliefs who wants to hold on to old-fashioned patterns. That don't gel with me at all.
Would've been easier if I'd been born some 5-7 years later. At least then a man a few years older than me would also be Gen X.

Peculiar thing is that I am what you can call a bridgebuilder. And then I read that Gen Xers are bridgebuilders? Only then they mean between the generation before and the one after Gen X.

Anyone ever took this generation stuff into account?

Merry Christmas everyone!

Google said the same occurs in certain areas of (N) US.
I think it stands out to me because I'm not a native speaker English so I find oddities distracting.
Apart from that I used to be an English teach so my brain is trained to pick up mistakes, hihi.
Something that never goes away anymore.
Such things make me want to get out my red pen to correct things or make clear it's incorrect.

Hiya, since it's a dating site it would be handy to add what kind of relationship you're hoping to find, what you are ready/willing to offer. And what kind of woman appeals to you.

It's nice to know you like to go to the jetty and stuff, but are you just looking for company or a romantic interest? Are you loyal, hoping to (eventually) live together and/or marriage and so on.
We need to know if you're relationship material or just casual-contact material.

In that sense -for a dating site- your profile is seriously lacking info.

Then you did get to see something interesting!!
I would've loved to visit that village too, haha.
As for the rest, I've understood from travellers that Japanese still have this being polite thing going strong. That when you ask directions in the street they stick with you until you are at your destination, as they feel obliged to help you.
Or something like that.
That would drive me up the wall, haha.

By the way, about Mantracker, what I keep forgetting to ask...
While watching did you also notice that apparently Canadians often use past tense when they should be using past participle?
Not always, but very often.
For instance "They've went..." instead of "They've gone..."
I was surprised by that, and not just the cowboys that did this, also people from the city.
It seems to be normal in Canadian English?

Really weird, I've come across all kinds of slang from people in English conversations, people from the UK, US, AUS, but this is a new one on me.
Very confusing. And odd. If I was to spend a little bit of time in Canada it'd scr*w up my English, haha.

In a way, yes. In the past, when around 20, I read a lot of books about Japan, the old culture etc.
I absolutely loved it!
I believe "Shogun" is the only thick book I've ever finished reading in my life. It was that good, hihi. (I love reading, but somehow always give up on thick books)

So far I like the series.
Totally different from Mantracker of course, and you need to read the subs as they speak Japanese.

Last night I watched the first 2 episodes of Last Samurai Standing.

So far I like it :)
