Maybe the OP is not having much luck here and should consider moving? She is doing a college degree last time I checked, and could possible think of moving after it's completed?

 

Just a thought. I know people who simply do better in dating in other countries.

 

One guy I know of moved to Canada, as he is bi lingual and lives in Montreal right now. He has better much dating over than compared to in Australia where the market is entirely different. He is a good looking guy.

 

 

Hey Leigh,

 

I had to give up studying in 2012, my exes job finished and we didn't get anymore child support, so I had to start job searching. It's been over a year, and in that time I have only landed tiny bits of casual work. The volunteering I am doing is part of Work for the Dole. It's all been pretty depressing. But I have actually felt more confident in my abilities since the volunteering started. The place is falling apart, so I feel very needed.

 

I am open to moving when my kids finish their qualifications (3yrs) if they get work overseas. But they are both dead set against going to the US (where I imagine my perfect man probably lives). So I generally try to accept my singleness, and I only really get unsettled when my libido get overly worked up.

 

Even though the thread got semi-hijacked I think ES provided a pretty good example of effective flirting from a woman. You generally let the guy babble on about himself and then comment on it in an ego stroking way. Like if he's talking about bodybuilding it opens up a door to talk about how his body looks. But you can't just respond to what he says tit for tat, providing some kind of unique material of your own in response is good. It's gotta be a bit of a dance where you're moving too. If that makes any sense.

 

My last girlfriend let me babble on quite a bit, validated me occasionally and I loved it. :love:

 

Thanks Gaius. Well in terms of knowing how his body looks he had told me the other day he has a four pack and wants to work on making it an 8 pack. I guess that was the moment I should have stroked his ego. I will try to keep in mind this idea of stroking there ego's. (Delivering the harsh burns sounds alot more fun to me though. ;) )

 

One good thing, now that I know he is not interesting I guess there is no harm asking him for some workout advice for my abs. I am going on a trip in a few months, and I want to look my best.

Hey Guys,

 

I am happy with myself. I went in today and worked in the same room as him for 5 hours, and it was completely normal like I had never said anything. I feel like a complete 'grown-up'.

 

Thanks for letting me process all my emotions on here last night.
