Do you put yourself out their by messaging or approaching someone you are possibly interested in? Or do you just wait in your safety bubble?

I use to be a bubble girl but I'm slowly venturing outside my comfort zone and sending emails or occasionally approaching someone.

Once in a while, its normal to want to connect with new people. I rarely hear of people willing to take chances anymore. We're all "working on ourselves", "not rushing things" and repairing our heads from the last experience. But it couldn't hurt to talk to new people, be open-minded. Lot of great memories come out of friendship.

I used to be a slut so, " in a bubble " never applied.

I was raised to be selfconfident, friendly and mouthy. (If you met my dad you would understand)


That being said.....

I flirted with a lot of Mingle ladies....digging each one for who they are....but always keeping my distance.

Then....my girl just let me know that she wanted me......

It worked.

Sometimes.....us dumbassed guys just need to actually need permission to get the go ahead from the chick to know that it is cool to rub some Mojo on them and woo them.

I rubbed my Mojo on them and got stuck with the cleaning bill.

No bubbles for me Penny...Every great thing that ever happened to me happened because I was willing to take a chance, willing to risk my heart, my money, whatever....I hate what if's way more than I hate failure or mistakes because failure and mistakes only mean you are trying, you are doing something and in the process you are learning about life, about yourself.....

You're lucky it didn't leave a permanent stain...

i send them a message saying "nice jugs!" and then wait for the marriage proposal

Bill......Is that you?????

nice jugs!

sometimes I do, sometimes I don,t.

I'm like to take risks. You can't get what you deserve sitting in a bubble.

Thanks, can I bum a ciggy?....

well of course

Sometimes I try to contact people at 3am and I cannot assume I am focused. I checked my sent mail just now and read this great pick-up line: Hi, how interesting: you are a housekeeper and I am slob; you like to cook and I like to eat; you are "down-to-earth" and I have my head in the clouds. I think we match up well. I don't remember writing this, and I got no response. So if you get an e-mail from me at 3AM, just pat me on the head and tell me to go to bed.

Penny, it's good for you that you're trying to burst out of your bubble, one little step at a time.

You need to know you are free and worth it, and then the bubble will disappear, not just appear to be see-through with paper-thin walls.

I used to fight my way out of paper bags, and used to defeat paper tigers; I used to stay in my cookoon, and used to jump three feet in the air when the coocoo clock beat the hour, and I used to don my paper-weight feathers and fly over the coocoo's nest.

Nope ... I guess since I really am not looking, I do neither.

No bubble baths for Pixie, with soft-sponge-strokes on her neck, back, and inner thighs!!

I have no problem contacting or approaching people I am interested in getting to know better. I see no reason to wait around.

I am the typical Irish gift for gab type gal that can chat with almost anyone. Will be the hostess and try to see everyone is having a great time at any party or place I go to.

Well except when I really am super attracted to someone then I do a lot of chokeing and crushing from afar. I may screw up my courage for one subtle pass but if the guy is too shy to pick up on the signal and ask for that all important first date that says "Yea I dig you too" well we usually end up in the friend zone and I let my feelings fade.

Frusterateing because I have several friends that given a chance would have probably ended up treating like Kings and surpriseing the heck out of once the "romance" thing kick in to gear.

I really believe that a good percentage of the Mingler's that are thinking themself "Terminally Single" just need to streach a little and reach out and grab the brass ring so to speak.
