If the person can't communicate with you on a friendship level then forget it. You're a decent person and if they have such little respect for you then they're obviously not; game over (lol)

Chromeo :)could listen to their stuff all day and not get bored.

I worked with a bloke in my last job who sometimes had a beard and sometimes didn't; he looked good either way :) It was though, a well maintained beard that was regularly trimmed and kept in check. I love stubble on men, quite a turn on, but....as technoted and others have said it all depends...

Connexions PA and being a part time novelist. Not a million miles away from what I am qualified in :) so that's good I guess; plus, I do write part time.

4 times (up until 1996) then give up. Because of my job, I have to drive now; its an essential requirement, so I'm doing one of those intensive courses soon. I love cars, and normally drive fine but on the test I just went to bits each time. The last time the examiner said: "So are you coming...

Yep, but at 5"8 you'd look really good with a taller bloke. It probably just looks odd with me, like some kind of joke :) This bloke at my old work was 6"2, when I used to talk to him I got a sore neck; very often he'd slyly bend down a bit to my height. (I noticed that after a while!!!)...

No, it certainly isn't weird for a bloke to own a cat; as I have one of my own, I'd prefer it if he could at least tolerate them.

5"1-feel like I'm standing in a hole most of the time, my mum and my friend are both 4"11 though which makes me feel a bit better! I once dated a bloke of 5"2 though and that made me feel quite tall :):) I prefer tall(er) blokes around the 6ft mark- don't know why, just do

Smoking with CF? I've never heard anybody doing that before; risky indeed. That's pretty awful Newfiegirl 110; haven't even heard of those treatments until now. So, how long did you smoke for, and was it that which has made your asthma unmanageable now? I agree with exactly what you're...

I only like electro on that list :( So it has to be that I guess

Cosmic Girl by Jamiroquai My best mate says it reminds her of me; I used to own the t shirt too back in the day :) I wouldn't want my final hours to be morbid, so yeah- that's me

I was verbally bullied from the age of 7-16 for being a bit chubby (not even that much lol); mainly by girls but not exclusively. Not a pleasant experience at all but one that has definately influenced my career choices in a positive way; I work with young people in a similar situation etc. So...

Yep, I have asthma. My last peak flow reading was 450 quite recently, (Im 34, 5"1 and weigh 9 stone)not too bad. I'm taking a reliever inhaler very occasionally if my asthma can't be managed on the preventer (250 mg every evening) Got diagosed way back in 1984, but my dad's a severe asthmatic...

Well, I got a surprise phone call from one of my friends. They said: "We've got you a present" Turns out its the Green Smoke starter kit. (e-cigarette) Real bizarre as I was only posting about it last night, they know I'm pretty desperate to quit now. I'll have the starter pack within the next...

I'm currently trying to give up smoking at the moment (see the thread on e-cigarettes) been smoking on and off for 18 years (mainly on)-honestly wish i hadn't started now. :( My parents have never smoked and weren't impressed when they found out; especially beecause both me and my dad have...
