No. It makes you either an anal cache fetishist, or a pretty poor attempt at being a forest.

Anyway - St Swithin? What's evil about your estranged spouse?

If you think that's too personal to reveal, make something up. I guarantee you'll be believed.

Like what? My burgeoning career as a writer? The only person who ever thought my writing was any good was my dad, and he's dead, for all the good that does me.

From other posts on this forum, your Dad never gave you a break you didn't deserve.

Your posts show passion, and occasional venom - 2 very good traits for a creative person.

Besides, I don't know the first thing about anything.

Politics or journalism would be 2 possible career choices.

When I was 6, I was in a school play. I told my stepmom that more than anything, I wanted to be an actor.

After the play, she told me it was a good thing I wasn't serious about acting, because I was awful.

Acting is an incredibly hard profession that destroys most of its workers. Don't go there is all I can say.

Yeah, I had a GREAT self-image at 6 years old. I guess I still do. (I feel PRETTYYYyyy, oh so prettyyyyY!YYYY)

I can't do anything but go onto public forums and pick on trolls. It's fun, but it sure as heck doesn't pay any bills.

Same here. Don't get leisure activities mixed up with work.

Yes, I live in Venice. 12 years ago, I thought this was heaven. Now I know the truth. I STILL can't get out.

The grass is always greener. I thought London was amazing when I first moved there. After 5 years wild horses wouldn't drag me back.

Oh yeah, anecdote from when my sis divorced her husband; she was so mad she asked me if I knew any hitmen.

I replied "A few, but I'm not going to let you do that. If you regret it later, there's nothing you can do to make it better. I won't see you do 20 years in prison".

Now she's single again, a dynamic dye blond saleswoman on the road in her green MG, and turning down proposals left and right centre.

My point being - divorce could actually be a gateway to a better life for you.

I think marriage works for some couples, and nearly all couples try to make it work. However, some pairings are just not built to last - the relationship changes and just doesn't work anymore.

Can't help you with a Mancunian marriage for UK citizenship - would you settle for an accentless Scouser?

you could always come to Las Vegas . Not to far from the LA scene. We have Westwood studios here I believe. Though it can be tough to get on with that gaming company. My brother was looking into that. Or you could just design softwar for local businesses. If all else fails you can become a stripper .

[st_swithin]

Uh, I think that in the interest of Las Vegas' economy, it would be better for me to stay out of there and to keep all of my clothes on.

I'm an accentless scouser myself. I wouldn't want to curse my kids with it (if I accidentally had any - and I ASSURE you, it would ONLY be if they outlawed abortion, suicide, and infanticide via the LifeLog system).

[LTEC!]

I haven't bothered on reading the thread yet. But does this mean that I, little ol' me.
Am ruined????????????

WOW!

You're a real catch, dahl! Let's get married with a nice old fashioned white wedding, followed by a rough honeymoon game of "pin the mortal chains on the ruined womb"!

[st_swithin]

Yeah, all we need now is a little house with a white picket fence, 2.2 children, 0.8 dogs, 1.2 cats, 2.4 cars, and $10,000 in debt and we could live miserably ever after.

That's ok, I've got plenty of misery in my life, thanks.

[MichaeltheGreat]

You've gotta add at least one more zero to the debt figure. If you're gonna be miserable anyway, at least do it in style. And if you translate your single misery to married misery, at least you have someone to inflict it on, er, um, share it with.

[Zylka]

F*ck that noise

-I don't do the whole "dog" concept
-Kids would mean someone other than me sucking on whoops
-I tend to get around any and all debt by feigning feelings for lonely creditors... and it's fun!

Marry me
Marry me
Marry me!!!

[st_swithin]

Heh, you know, if you were a woman and I wasn't already chained down, I might just take you up on it.

[Zylka]

HOOOOWWWWWRFRFFF THAT'S A WATERLOGGED ORDER OF ICHIBAN

why did you marry a guy if you were lez?

Jon Miller

[st_swithin]

I'm NOT (ABSOLUTELY NOT, WHETHER YOU WANT TO BELIEVE IT OR NOT), but since most guys are bigger than me, I don't trust them not to beat me.

In fact, I'm finding that men do that to me pretty much any time I let them anywhere near me, either mentally or physically.

Mentally, I really just can't take no more. Two serious suicide attempts were enough for me, thanks.

Physically, well, I can take most girls on, no problem, but most guys, as I said, both outweigh and outheight me.

I'm not a gambling person - I'd rather take a safe bet than double down on a possible blackjack.

Yikes

Sory to hear that hun. Rough start, eh?
