1. General Guidelines: (1) Don't do dates. Really, they're just bad bad bad. Start off by being friends and hang out, don't suggest a date because there is just no good way to turn one down. (2) Dont try hard to impress, if you don't naturally then it's just not going to happen. (3) Start off slow. Being over-eager says a lot about y

People get forced into making choices they shouldn't have to make though, and I kind of think that eventually you just have to get over yourself and see what a mess you are potentially making of things. It's an age where you're too old to get away with just doing as you please, but not old enough to deserve having these things thrown at you.

So are you saying you devoured a 672-page book within 14 hours of purchasing it? you underestimate the addictive power of hp, you start reading it, and tell yourself every time that you're going to read it s-l-o-w-l-y but somehow get hooked anyway and wind up finishing the whole thing before you'v

There comes a point in your life where you need to grow up. It may be somewhat early for me to feel this considering that I'm now only just turning 18, but in that peculiar way that life works, it has presented me with the change and I'm finally ready to take it. To make it. Anyone who read Bad Timing and a Bad Idea <a href="http://rumourandmyth.joeuser.com

No one can begin to understand why you can randomly find yourself in total gridlock when no reasonable cause is to be found, but apart from the traffic, pollution, violence, crime rate, expense (and so on and so on), there's a special brand of magic that can only be found in city life: the streets vibrate with energy and life, and people operate to a different sort of rhythm than anywhere else, there's a need to live and to experience as much as possib

I don't flippantly use others... when I realised that I didn't feel as strongly for him as he did for me I tried to call it off and he wouldn't let me, hassled me for weeks until I decided to give it a go, test myself. We've only been together for two weeks, and I'm still wary enough to know that I can make a mistake and should keep an eye out for that.

wow I had completely forgotten about this site... thanks for the suggestions, I've added them onto the bottom. I hadn't ever really considered doing a "u-s" list of women, but I think that it must certainly be ture of men, as it is of women, that they can see a particular brand of attractiveness or sexuality in a woman that doesn't comply with the more common trends of appearances and beauty. I think that in that case the emphasis is stil on "ageing gr

So you wait all your life for somebody to come along: someone with those eyes, those lips and the personality to match. Obvously, on the way to this reunion you've made plenty of stupid mistakes, settled and resettled on numerous occassions so that just as you're gripped in that singularly most momentous passionate embrace you can't breathe for the sheer

Cat on a Got Tin Roof presents an audience with three main themes: sex, desire, the American Dream, and deception or “mendacity”. Tennessee Williams’ characters are presented as somewhat two-dimensional stereotypes; Margaret and Brick are both examples ‘the American Dream’, both are beautiful, Maggie with her long neck and graceful arms, and Brick, the glorious A

The Question of Ugly-Sexy Ugly-Sexy (U-S) is, by no means, a modern phenomenon. In fact, so many years of wondering if such a thing exists should be reason enough to prove that U-S, as it is known in certain cliques, is a reality. Firstly, however, what is Ugly-Sexy? U-S can only be described as a condition that causes a pers

A Teacher's Allure No matter how great a feminist a woman may claim to be, I assure you that deep down, at least 99% of all women have a desire to be dominated: spiritually, sexually, and intellectually. The wish to dominate is a part of human nature, and peop0le are fascinated by the idea of relinquishing this dominance to another’s control. The legac

Recently a friend of mine told me that having seen me off (with a certain un-named individual), she had been thinking about the old movies in which the right walk home as it is refered to by Carol Ann Duffy, was the backdrop for many a romantic encounter. With various new programmes based almost solely on the possibility of romance, I began

Fama&Calliope - Watership Down, by Richard Adams Apart from perhaps, LoTR and Tracy Chevalier's marvellous books, there cannot possibly be a better book than this.

When a film is made, the director aims to capture a series of moments on camera, and to preserve them for later viewing. In Girl with a Pearl Earring, Webber has achieved a certain mastery of the art of communication that rivals the topical art of the film itself. How do you capture, not merely the standard movie moment, but a lifetime in the space of 99minutes alone?
