I spoke I’m not the first for this and I most definitely won’t be the last,
BUT!
Being a slightly older gent and being, how should I put it?....
An experienced, no,.. um ah I got it ....
being a teeny bit of a net veteran , or a ‘net-vet’ if you will I just can’t seem to stop slapping myself after a recent incident.
I started coming here to meet peeps, maybe have a bit of a laugh and even maybe make some new friends. So far things have been going ok. Lol (sorry, never been overly optimistic about much really, except me Dex and close ones).
Anywho ... long story short, I hooked up with this someone how after chatting for a while, asked for some help.
I hear ya say it, no... No it wasn’t for dosh or inadvertently helping some porn website god forbid.... the help was concerning test websites.
Me being me was like...’duh, yea dude I’ll help ya’
Ya see it all seemed ok.
I gets a call his morning, no one on the other end of it.
Well since then every half hour or so guess what?
You clever peeps, you got it ...... the bloody phone rings with no one there....
no chance, not on your nelly am I calling the numbers back! Nada, an,nope ... just NO. (You did notice I said numbers?... that’s cause in most cases the area code is the same)...
I might be long in the tooth...
I might be a sucker for some sweet talk
I might even start to think things are real ....
But no dam way is some bs company gonna rinse my mobile .... (so hoping they ain’t doing it as I speak ... thinking new number time)
Rant over peeps, rant over . :)

@heyitszoey You get lot's of standard idea's through asking what to draw...
Why not surprise us all with something alternate? :)

@sarah Being a person that wears his heart on his sleave don't seem to help... That in itself is not a mistake, because you can only be who you are and if that's who you are it's no easy task to change...
But being that way has lead me into various situations where mistakes have followed rather rapidly.... I'm not going into more detail than that because some things hurt to much.
apart from that I've never had regrets to it's not easy to pinpoint mistakes ... (joy riding at 18 and being caught was a deffo mistake... kinda luckily it was me first time), and my last!

@danjoz I've often asked myself this question. When every day seems to be an upward battle and you never seem to get through it, what exactly is the point?
You say to @JustChatAmy that you don't have any blessings in your life, but consider this: Evan with the daily rubbish that life may bring to your door, Every new day is a blessing in itself.
If you are healthy... this to is another blessing.
and to have a family around you (presuming that this is the case) is another good example of a blessing. Evan if you don't get on with your family the mear fact that you have one is a real plus for your life!.
There are some of us that don't have that grace and pleasure for a whole number of reasons.
I could go on about the free things in life that could be considered blessings, but I won't (as that wasn't the topic)
Life itself seems to me to be test...
test of self
test of individuality
test of humanity
test of resiliance
and sooo much more.
There doesn't seem to be any reason for it apart from causing destruction (to each other, the environment etc) on the most part,
and bringing joy when and where possible (helping without question [people/animals] over and above one's self), creation of a family tree (continuing the blood line if you like).
The crux of it is there is no point to life, noreason... you just have to make the best of it.
And the only way to make the best is to go out there, grab it firmly by the nards, look square into it's eyes and say---OI LIFE, I WILL ENJOY THIS TIME I HAVE REGARDLESS OF WHAT YOU HAVE IN-STORE!....GOT IT LIFE??? GOOD

@snpem69 Hmmmm,
I've only been lucky enough to have this situation in my life once (arguably twice). The first time was great... it just kind of happened. I'd see my mate, things would just happen, we were both happy and then we went about our separate ways each doing our thing. The relationship went on like this for months and months... tbh eventually we did get together. This was great for a time to, since we already knew each other inside and out.
We split and didn't frequent each others company for a number of years, then randomly we ended up living on the same street, almost straight over the road... her with her family, me with mine.
I've known her since I was 12yrs old.... and through the good times and bad, family issues and the family milestones we've always been there.. so for me, it worked... was a good thing.
The second time we were a relationship that was more like friends with benefits.. didn't last long, but while it was on ... it was on!

@hales18 hey it's cool ... no need to apologise...
many of us suffer in that way, as you grow you start to accept that all these peeps saying nice things about you must be true, are true .
I still suffer that way now. I'm ok here/online , but when I meet people it's a different story .... until I get to know them .
You not alone hun, that's for sure.
Head Up High, Cheeky Grin to the World and the world will be your oyster ( if it's not already ) :D
