The Scary Reality of Real Life ....

I imagine you Eddie as small, dark and hairy. Even if I find out you are a six foot blond who is as bald as a melon, I will see you as the former.

He is seven foot tall.

Two out of six, Wolfie. No further comment.

Are you now flirting with me RV ? you do seem to be monopolising the thread.....

Eddie? Definitely dark and hairy.

Yes Fey, I am taller than you. But not as tall as Stormy. Shall we move this to the lateral thinking thread? :o)))

OH NO HE ISN'T!!

i've met stormy twice now, and failed to measure him on both occasions. if pushed on it, i'd say he is Quite Tall. he makes good toast too, from what i remember...

*guffawing uproariously at being described as petite*

OK OK, so Stormy is petite and YOU are seven feet tall. Whatamixuptomakea

RV.....flirting you may not be.....obsessive you are....counting the posts ?....have a lie down and a cup of tea..you'll feel better.

i think stormy IS seven feet tall ... i will tell you after saturday ...

Simpering and flirting? Sorry - I thought we were talking about peculiar dreams - and as for inane private/public conversations, exactly what are YOU doing, dear R V? I think you are making a last ditch leap for the crown of Forum Queen, so here - do please borrow my wings to help you reach it! (And not once while writing this have I batted my eyelashes or covertly looked up into anyone's eyes, smiled and giggled) JJ

I feel like one of those phoney fortune tellers. They ask a question such as 'Mrs Guffins, your husband was he a blond man?...' Then, when they get a violent shake of the head, they change track 'I see a dark man...definitely dark'. Oh well, my career as a clairvoyant is portilloed (buggered).

I'm perfectly calm r.v, as Jennifer says our discussion was purely that, nothing else, we do not know eachother. It was not my intention to be nasty, I don't think I was, merely reacting and answering, possibly a little too sarcastic, if you felt insulted, apologies, it was the East London in me, I'll try and be nicer in future......still don't know your name though...

Smart, sassy f, 19, intelligent, fairly pretty, tendency to sarcasm, not seeking anyone, just introducing herself... (and I'm not the sort of girl to 'book a room' with strangers, thankyou)

36 and not the type of boy to book rooms with strangers either.....eager to build bridges with r.v (but not book a room !)

is now considering not going. will have to ditch the pink jumper and green leggings for a start. with only 5 days to go cannot grow hair nor body long enough. I suspect petite is rather apt since I always have to fight off advances from homosexual men on my rare trips to soho (on business you fools). A few years ago, I was late for a rendevouz (as ever, sigh) in a pub. the others had all moved on but I decided to stay for a drink in the basement bar anyway. As I took my first sip of my pint and my eyes accustomed to the near total darkness I took in the clientale for the evening. couples sat all around. after the second sip I realised they were of the same sex. after the next gulp I spotted the big sign by the door "GAY NIGHT TONITE!" two hunky men arrived at the bar. either side of me. conversation (nervous on my part), suggestion (on their part(s)) a final gulp (in their dreams) and I was away. The professional drinkers here will acknowledge the fact that I stayed to finish the beer. ...... yes, liana, I can imagine how people find you blonde on the inside. *ducks*

As for me: think a young Natassjia Kinski, seasoned with a little Nigella Lawson and Isabella Rossellini. I'm nothing like them. Sorry, but it was probably fun thinking.

the few brain cells I have left still hurt. I made toast? tremendous fun. great company. agree with dave's comment. have gained respect for Llamas (spritely variety) and poodles. Dave is graham norton personified and equally as funny. or do I mean peculiar? thanks for the laugh folks. enjoyed it. and now I'm off to bed to recover. ps if you ever see robert in a car park late at night.... don't shout out "robert!" He will assume you are the local wino shouting "mombly blert yurgh" and increase his pace away from you.

i am the type to book a room with strangers ... any offers??

I met a cousin via the internet, she had posted a plea for information about my family name...I answered...we e-mailed....we agreed to meet. I intended bringing my sister in case she was weird (my cousin, not my sister) my sister couldn't make it...I went to Reading. My cousin was there with about 5 other people (she thought I might be weird) we met we drank we got pissed we liked end of story. I am curious about the regulars I see on the discussion pages......wolfgirl, ivb, dave randall, liana, et al. What are you like ?

AHa Martin. You have to guess but it is our democratic right to lie.

Oh ivb, there you go teasing again....i've read some of your racy stuff ......phew......very good rv.....glad that's all finished, i've had to have several cups of fruit tea to bring my blood pressure down.... The original thread....I think we're still on it, we inhabit this abctales world....we tease, we take the piss, we argue, we flirt, it is a safer world in which to do it, we are all anonymous in a way............. apart from the abctalers who have met..... I'm sure you're all very beautiful and sexy....

i meet as many people in real life from the net as i can ... so far i have not been disappointed tho some of them have appeared shocked by my room booking penchant ...

Dave's always trying to get one over me.....

you go first martin I'm too pissed

Graham steals all my material.....

Interesting reply.......I see you as a wild woman, possibly savage... am I close ?

I have met two people off the net - the second of which I fell in love with - unfortunately, while I was falling for him, he was falling for someone else, so it was not to be...however, we are still great friends.

I was talking about wolf girl as the wild woman but Gloria, I was typing as you were typing.....are you a wild one ?

oh i try and fall in love with them all ... i see it as my contribution to social inclusion ...

I have met two people I knew from the net. The first was a cool guy. Though, he was a bit self obsessed. I think you know him - Jake Kane. The second was this girl called Jaï. We built a great relationship over the net. I met her and we facied each other. We are currently seeing each other. So somtimes net realtionships can work in real life. Spag-Licious

you betcha ass honey bunny

That's so lovely - good luck to you, spag.

Thanks Jennifer. So anyone else here found romance from the net?

what, this pert bottom ?

I already have one at home who seems fairly tolerant of my hairy moles, moustache and tendency to itch in inconvenient places. I don't think anyone else would have me (sob). Still, a recent (purely innocent) reintroduction with an ex via the net was a terrible shock. Even people you know can change so incredibly that they become strangers. Good news about 'netting' Jai, Si. Make sure she doesn't get away.

hmm, like pert bottoms. I'm probably more tiger savage than wolfgirl though. she's just a pussycat.

Wolfgirl.......you sound wondrous to me. I am curious of what has happened to ex partners, I run into them very seldolmly and when I do, I'm usually glad in a way that we didn't stay together. It is interesting seeing how they turned out....I hope that all that I have lost touch with are doing well....... ..............now wolfgirl..............ermmmmmmmm

One wonders if it was the common 'i' at the end of their names that was the attraction?

mmmmm, this wine is going down real well....are you girls going to fight ?

My exes are all abroad. They migrate like frighten lemmings after our relationships. Best place for 'em.

I meant frightened. Boy are they. (Like Martin, they dream of hairy moles etc)

But is it the physical stuff that scares them or is it the strange crevices of your mind?

Both. Or it could be the fact that I mutate into a very hairy creature at midnight, complete with long, yellow fangs dripping with blood and claws that could slice a man to ribbons? Or that I eat Scampi Fries? Not really sure which.

me? no I never fight martin. It was just that I see wolfgirl as a happy sheep in her ubiquitous clothing. me? I am woolly on the outside but one foxy lady within xxx

meoooowwwwwwww wolfgirl....you're playing with my dreams

I see wolfgirl as the mother of romulus, the founder of Rome.... i've drunk all the wine now........I'm off the bed too.......but I will dream of a foxy lady..........

Thanks Wolfie. I hope I don't mess it up. Jennifer, if it is the 'i' that was the common attraction then long live the 'i'.
