Superthread LXIX - Honouring Mork from Ork - RIP Robin Williams

[Misanthrope]

Where do you want to die / retire?

No idea. Do I need to know?

I couldn't care less where I die since I'll be dead immediately after dying.

 

[Drew-Sta]

No idea. Do I need to know?

No. No need to know now. Just always an interesting question. You have the wanderlust ala the search for home. I know that feel.

To expand on a slight tangent, I saw a picture of a girl I know, sweaty back looking down at Machu Pichu after climbing a nearby mountain. The picture was immensely interesting due to the emotions it evoked. In one, I was jealous of what she had done as I wanted to do it myself, sad that I won't ever do that in my 'youth' since I have a kid and can't just 'up and go on an adventure', reminiscent of my time in Tonga and that adventure, and disappointed that I will never wander the world as I had always dreamed of as I have a wife and kid.

Yet, in all that, I would not trade what I have now. My kid is partly walking, smiles at my arrival home, says 'Dadda', and I can see the love in her eyes. I would kill to defend her such is my love.

Its all a bit conflicted.

I couldn't care less where I die since I'll be dead immediately after dying.

Die / retire is equivalent to 'spend your last few years in your life'. The question of finality and where you will finally rest.

date went ok, seems to genuine like me but I think im going to stuck on the friends list for awhile.

Maybe I need to be more of an asshole, hearing her describe wasn't like someone who she sees as a potential partner but more like a big lovable Labrador she likes having around. Isn't the first time either.

 

[Drew-Sta]

Just ask her if she wants to take it further. Simple Y/N question mate. It will answer your question quickly.

hopefully not in the same place at the same time, as that would be a trifle annoying..

 

[Rhino_NQ]

either or it's still good having a friend outside of work people. She is pretty keen to show me around which is good. Talked about a few spots and places I hadn't heard about so far

or perhaps it just means you aren't suited to each other? No harm in that.. Just find another one of the millions of single ladies in Australia..

if you have to pretend to be somebody you are not in order to win someone over, you're starting the relationship with a lie.. And that's hardly grounds for a successful and long lasting encounter..

You are only restricted by the own perceptions of restriction though.

I was not a big traveller in my youth due to illness and a few other things .

I thin feel into parenthood and then a career that took up a lot of my energy


I became a traveller after my mother died and I had some money to take my children on a trip to the other side of the world .from there we began exploring the world together and apart .

Ironically my children are now the reason I do a lot of travel now ( since one of my sons followed his heart to North America where he now lives with my granddaughter .imsay ironically since we often see children as a reason that the dream of travel ceases.For me they provided the impetus to continue exploring the world .

It's just a matter of the way you look at things really.

Ask if she is down to f**k

Job done

Muzby speaks the truth.

This. So much. I'm so sick of being played, mis-lead, or just flat out lied to.

I am so terribly lonely, but I can't even bring myself to try any more. For the moment, anyway.

never thought of that approach

 

[butchmcdick]

never thought of that approach

You're welcome

Even if you just hang out with her it's cool to have a mate to show u the sights

Plus she might have hot friends

This is very true. I found I attracted crazy girls when I was younger because I was very open about my feelings and professed to be a 'nice guy'. They'd see something they wanted in that, and so we'd try to make it work. It never did.

These days, though, I know how to spot them and I'm drawing the attention of nicer girls again. Wales and Kenya, the last two girls I've been involved with, have been quite lovely individuals.

my thoughts exactly

 

[Didgi]

Don't forget to fap

Forgot to fap before the missus came over the other day. Was wondering where my gold medal was.

 

[Apey]

I really want to get out and see the world also. I'm a lazy f**k though. I will probably die in my computer chair at the tender age of 25.

 

[afinalsin666]

I think i need to stop drinking. Try to get my shit together and eat healthy and stuff, then bang, full weekend on the piss and all the drunken food you can imagine. Pretty much every weekend for a couple months.

Stoked knights are giving up so many points, hopefully they play like that against the Storm next week.

Why do people stuff up their spelling and grammar when they start a new thread?
