Members Martyn Posted March 15, 2016 Members Report Posted March 15, 2016 Aika, regardless of your unfortunate circumstances - and you have my sympathies - this thread is still ill-advised and ridiculous. I mean most of the people you are talking to, are on the other side of the planet. How were you hoping to consummate the relationship, Skype? Your short list should start with people in the same country at the very least, then maybe 'popping round for a coffee' falls within the realms of actually being possible. ...and regardless of what YOU want, there is the other issue of whether everyone else on here, wants to be subjected to your manhunting. lecture over. Do what you want and good luck to you. Quote

Do what you want and good luck to you. For God sake!!!! Wise man please leave technical things to me and to that man who choose to send me a message, big things always start from small "hello" ))) skype, facebook, telegraph or ancient system of signs through smoke fire... we will find the way, if he likes me he will find ways to say that, if he wants to be closer - airports are open. I already lived in several countries and distance does not freaks me out. Thank you for your blessings. I don't really care if this thread looks absurd and ridiculous to you, you are married and you are off my list. There is a place only for one man, and only one man should see this okay. Quote
Members Aika Posted March 15, 2016 Author Members Report Posted March 15, 2016 I once went to Singles speed dating event... I was so impressed so next day I tooled this. Quote
Members MonicaJacobson Posted March 15, 2016 Members Report Posted March 15, 2016 (edited) lol, awesome. My husband and I met in person, and then corresponded long distance (not too long, only about 800 miles) for two years before we got married. We've been married ten years now. Long distance dating can certainly work if your'e serious about it. In some ways you can say more over e-mail or phone than is comfortable in person. It's also easier to lie, so it can go both ways.

Troy I Posted March 15, 2016 Report Posted March 15, 2016 (edited) I'm not sure what everyone's problem is about this post...I have enjoyed this topic and find it perfectly fine for this forum...just think of how many of us have found, friends and other people here, with the same likes and dislikes. If you are looking for someone with the same likes...what better place to find and communicate with them, than an area where we gather...be it this forum, a church, pub or place of work etc. In my opinion, Aika, go for it...just keep it PG13....LOL Edited March 15, 2016 by Troy I Quote TroyImler's LeatherBentonville, VA 22610 http://www.ebay.com/usr/imlers_leather
Members ConradPark Posted March 16, 2016 Members Report Posted March 16, 2016 I agree with Troy I. What I find most amusing is how those that claims to have least interest, shows the most need to voice their criticism - sometimes repeatedly. The obvious sexism (gender discrimination and prejudice - in case anyone mistook the meaning for something else) is sad too, even though I'm certain that those people involved are oblivious to that fact. I made a comment a while back on another thread about something I didn't like (the first and only time) and most answers I got was basically to get over it or beat it. Now I'll repeat that here - for those that of some reason have a problem with Aika's good humored thread, just beat it. While I'm not interested myself, I still wish Aika good luck and keep doing what you're doing - regardless what other peoples opinions are. Always look forward. Quote
Members Aika Posted March 16, 2016 Author Members Report Posted March 16, 2016 (edited) Thank you for those who looks positive about this thread I don't really expect much, but I won't regret about opening this thread. Please stop trying to convince me that I made a silly step. Who knows maybe the special one is already reading it and thinking same way and soon going to text me his first "Hello Aika". I will only regret if I would not leave this door open for that special man to step in into my life. I don't believe in doing nothing and just rely on fate, I prefer to do something for it, the rest is in God's hands. I understand that I am not a 50 pound/dollar note, so everyone should like/love/adore me instantly, especially in such tough environment as leatherworkers group , but who cares? Do you? I don't. We only live one life and should enjoy every day we have. During last two years, while I am in leatherwork, I met so many good people, so many talented, made so many good friends!!!! I heard so many stories about friendship and love, I know few couples around the Globe who do leatherwork together as the family... why should I exclude myself from this circle when my belonging is obvious to me and other members of this community/circle.
