lmfao .. I was gonna say I have Visa.. :P

Just to add something else to the mix, try learning the melody lines within tracks. I often discover that once i know how to play that, I can work out what key best suits my voice and how to adapt it for guitar playing (often avoiding capo usage unless its really necessary).

And i'm a keyboardist... lol

Thank you kindly Tammy :D

choc torso?

naked sushi?

Rolo's?

Damn all this FOOD talk making me hungry and i've just eaten breakfast!!

the naked/torso parts, I can do without for now... > i'm reminded that i is so white i reflect.. > i can be a light on a runway strip for planes.. lol.

Well the hoops aren't in the Champions League are they? LMFAO

sorry.. i'm an arsenal fan (and yes, I still believe Eduardo dived), but the talk of celtic fans really made me chuckle because of the fact they couldn't beat us.

And speaking of results.. 6-2 after going behind twice isn't too bad a final result either.. (sorry blackburn fans, you were just out-fabregas-sed :D )

Its more as a standing point that I have a son and need to look to do more to re-establish contact. I haven't seen him in almost 3 years - thats a picture from middle of 2006.. if I remember right.

As for my pic.. i'll be changing it soon, once I discover where to change it lmao - I am still new and finding feet. :D

The situation itself tends to be rather destructive, but yes, whoever finishes things generally seems to get over it quicker.

Ironically, my ex finished with me first weekend in may last year, and I still to this day (albeit 2 weeks ago we tried again and after 4 days it didn't work out), have not managed to pull myself out of it completely.

But i'm sure my situation of lots of work and not much play at all contributes to my length of time to get over her. The more I get myself out of all work and no play scenario, then I feel I've got a better chance of moving forward.

And things are starting to look/feel a bit brighter at the moment. (although the weather around me says differently.. its raining)

Lol. I'm guessing its modify being who I am. But then there's actually getting through that barrier.

But thanks for the advice :D

Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get.

*Tom Hanks. Forrest Gump*

So i'm on here because who knows what might happen? friendships first, then any potential developments are welcomeable..

I'm 24.. and there's a fair bit of info on my profile. Please feel free to ask me for anything else though that you may feel that I have missed.

I've had 5 fails. And all were in a way my own doing. So do I give up being me in order to succeed at being happily with a partner? Or do I look to continue being me, making mistakes and losing patience with luck (ie, the absence of it?)

Good start.. Now just to add something about who i'm looking for. That's the hard one, because im not entirely convinced I have a clue. lol

4 months isn't really long enough in terms of time, especially as you were together at least long enough to create a life.

These things get better in time, and if she wont listen to you, speak to her family. Just by using a former councillors approach, you and her created your daughter between you. Whatever differences you may have on things between yourselves, they should be put aside for your daughter's sake.

I'm glad you felt you could talk about it here at least because a common phrase I like to use, is 'A problem shared is a problem halved'. Talking (or in this case typing lol), things out, to a number of people, will be more likely to assist you as you are made to feel better by the understanding knowledge of the variety of people that you meet on here for one, or in closer proximities to yourself (friends, family, work colleagues).

If ever you need a little extra support, (and yes, us guys do need it from time to time because like you ladies, we are also only human), my inbox is always open. You are never on you're own :D

> I have a son of nearly 5 years of age whom I haven't seen in almost 3 of them years because of a difference in attitudes between myself and his mother < so although its a different scenario (I miss my son like hell and it hurts worse than that), I have some understanding of still being in a sore spot after nearly 3 years.

Can I define unpredictable? With a dictionary yes. Within characteristics probably not.

I like to think of myself as a little unpredictable, because from day to day I do not know what mood I am going to wake up in, nor am I going to be aware of what I can/can't handle.

Life is unpredictable in itself isn't it? So why do we worry about someone saying they are unpredictable? If something bad is going to happen, it will happen (as unfortunate as it may sound), and we often hear someone somewhere saying life is unfair.

> speaking of unpredictable spontenaity now.

I was looking to re-build a potential relationship with an ex of mine. I had given her my word I would not speak to a certain ex of hers. 2.5 years down the line this is from the last time i'd spoken to him. I bumped into him, and held a 5 minute conversation. That put an end to any hopes of relationship reconciliation I might have had the chance to go through. I was honest to my partner at the time, but that was just an example of the spontaneous side of unpredictability (and how it went wrong, by being such a 'male orientated thing to do'. used loosely as a generic belief of my ex, that I acted with no thought to the consequences of my actions.)

Great attribute to a website.. on the world wide web.. of all places, I wouldn't expect it to be anything but global lol :D

(sorry, my sense of humour and my sarcasm get the better of me at times - i'm not setting out to be offensive in anyway :D )

I like nice people!

I just wish I could run a hotel where all you guys could come together and be nice in person too :D

Lifelong dream. Potential to fill it? I'm not sure at present lol

I've filled in the basics that I was asked to start with.

But i'm sure there's plenty more I could add. A little help and advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanking you all in advance.

Gary.

There is so much music out there. I've heard a lot of songs, I listen to a number of them on a regular basis, and yet i'm barely scratching at the tip of the musical iceberg.

To add to it.. I've even written a few of my own. And played live alongside my dad (who has written a few of his own too).

Father and son connection I call it.

But where he's primarily a rock fan, I'm more open and diverse to liking what else is around.

I play keyboard, guitar and sing.. though none really that well. I enjoy listening to a song and learning it within the 3-5 minutes (the majority of tracks are within those timing confines), that the track is playing.

Thanks for making me feel welcome :)

I Really do appreciate this, as although its only online at the moment, I'm still quite nervous and apprehensive. Its natural I believe but still, I am not normally this... cautious?
