I can peel a clementine in one go. Like Meg Ryan in Sleepless in Seattle.
This is my talent :)
I have one bitch of a toothache.
But i refuse to go to the dentist.
I’m too old to get a free sticker now. And i haven’t been for over 5 years. Why do you have to play up now, teeth? Why, when i move to a country where everything is so bloody expensive. Why? God damn you, Switzerland.

You’ve got it, darling. You’ve got a good head on your shoulders :)
Thank you :) i’m glad you agree. My friends seem to think i’m a little cynical. When we go out, they say they’re going ‘à la pêche’ (fishing), just go to dance and have a good time instead :D
You’re welcome :) I’m glad I agree too. There’s nothing wrong with being a little cynical. That just means that even though you can enjoy yourself and have fun, you can also see the reality in the things. à la pêche … that is great! No really, it made me smile :) I’d be one to go and dance too :) And maybe go for a little chase while I’m at it… :/ …..Also, I kept up with your convo with honkifyoulike; you were right about needing to love yourself before you love another. One of my “love philosophies”…. I always got made fun of for not dating in high school. I’m glad I didn’t. I’ve had one boyfriend; we started dating when I was 18 and he was 22. I’m glad I waited ‘til then because I knew who I was and what I wanted.
You’ve got to be a little realistic, cos it’s never gonna happen like it does in those movies & books.
Too right. but yeah, same, if i happen to get a good ‘catch’, then that’s great. But it’s not my aim. It’s flattering when a guy comes to dance with you though :)
Wish i’d followed your love philosophy in high school, instead i would get upset cos my crushes would go for my really beautiful friends instead of me, psh. It’s all about looks when you’re that age though.
I’m 19 & still don’t know who i am & what i want :s

I'm incapable of falling for someone.
It’s not a good feeling. I feel like i’m leading them on and then when they finally ask me if i’d like to hang out, i make up a lame-o excuse why i can’t make it. Like i’m tired & not a sunday person? I don’t mean to, but i don’t like people getting too close for comfort. I DON’T want to fall in love.
I used to think that’s all i wanted, but i’ve read too many books and watched too many movies and maybe it gives me high expectations… Or maybe it gives me none at all, because i’d rather fantasize about how it should be than actually live it.
Mmmhmmm…me too :( No matter how much I like someone, the second they starts showing an interest I freak out and avoid them like the plague.
Why do we do it? :s i think maybe it’s things from the past mixed with being frightened of my own feelings… And for some reason, i actually prefer the chase than the kill? If you get what i mean? :s
Well, for me it’s an honest-to-God phobia of intimacy (which is dumb because the closest I’ve ever had to an “intimate experience” was a colonoscopy…) and the illusion that letting someone in makes a person vulnerable. But I totally smell what you’re cooking.
Gosh, doesn’t sound like such a good experience. It made me think of the movie Gun Shy?
I totally smell what you’re cooking too. Sadly what we cook is not very sweet.
Hmm, I’ve never seen it. Don’t worry, I was asleep for the colonoscopy. Didn’t feel a thing…which just makes the comparison to a sexual experience even more hilarious.
Anyway, best of luck…maybe start slowly…like, slowly pushing yourself a little further. Saying yes to one date, but reminding yourself that it doesn’t have to go any further if you don’t want it to. I don’t know if it will work, but who knows?
You should watch it, it’s quite funny :)
HAHA. Doesn’t sound like you get much pleasure out of a colonscopy.
Thanks, same goes to you. And thanks for the advice, but y’know, i reckon when the right person comes along i’ll just like, go all mushy, as ‘they’ do. But y’know, i read peoples status’s and things on Facebook all like: I want a decent guy, blahblahblah and i just wish they’d realise that there is more to life than that - we’re only young after all, we have time for all that falling in love crap. But yes, i’m babbling now :)
Yup, I bet you will. And there’s no rush, really. We’re still young.
I do like being single for the most part…lots of time to learn about myself before I have to let someone else learn about me…
Exactly! & what’s that saying? For people to love you, you need to learn to love yourself? Orsomethinglikethat. One of lifes lessons i’m still yet to learn :)
