Love is like a hot cross bun. Or a drug! Once you've got a taste, you always want more. And the withdrawal symptoms are really nasty! Is there any love here, in this cupboard? Down the back of the sofa? Out in the cruel world? Yes! This thread is where we talk about the trials and tribulations of love. It's also the secret British thread, where British forumers and honorary Brits talk about our little island's foibles, for the edification of the yanks.

    Facebook is doing the creepy psychic thing again. My people you might know section is full of old dating site guys. I don't have their numbers and I haven't looked them up, and no! Stop it!

    Also somebody messaged me on PoF saying I look familiar and didn't I used to live near blandford? Yes I did. He must be a past PoF person. I hope.

    Hey love thread


    Ive always had a problem with feelings. Every time i started dating someone i freak out because i dont have strong feelings for them like they do for me. Everyone else seems to fall in love in like, a fucking week, and i just feel nothing. Ive always seemed to be this way, where i only realize im in love with someone like years into our friendship.

    Well, after almost 2 years with my gf, i can solidly day with confidence that i love her, no doubt. I got the feels. It just takes me way longer than most people. But them love feels, theyre there, and im glad i didnt rush it or lie about it because of societal pressure/what romcoms tell you.

    I had the realization a few days ago of, oh, love!! And its pretty great.

    Kochi that is wonderful! I'm very glad you're confident and content with yourself to know how you feel about these things and didn't bow to pressure, you should be pretty chuffed with yourself.

    Thx liiya

    Also my petname for her is the german word for platypus, because it is the most fun word to say. Her petname for me is the dutch pronounciation of hamster which just sounds like 'humpster'.

    Angelina do the stores in your area carry electric cattle prods? There are stores around here that do.

    I feel like you should invest in one.

    To be fair, brown sauce is infinitely better in a bacon sandwich than tomato.

    Why does pop culture seem so interested in the idea of murderous barbers? What'd barbers ever do?

    Lots of stuff

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barber_surgeon

    Also they just have a lot of sharp instruments that they typically bring very close to your face and neck when you could be seen as vulnerable.

    Way back they'd even pull your teeth. You know... Before anesthetic was invented, or germ theory.

    Vivienne bought shameful chocolate hot cross buns today.

    I made her buy the superior fruit based ones from the bakers. At the bakers they also had fruit ones with custard in them to.

    I did not buy those ones.

    So. Love thread. I shall tell you some stuff.

    A few weeks ago, I started up a casting call page for a project of mine. Over at Casting Call Club. It's a site for voice actors and directors who need any actors or actresses for their work. One gal auditioned for a couple of roles I had up for grabs. And she was pretty good!

    I don't know her real name, but she goes by Suzie. At least, I assume that's not her real name, given that she's a grown adult and not stamping your name on your ID wherever you go is kinda Internet 101, y'know?

    She started messaging each other about the project, and it wasn't long before we started starting about other stuff. She eventually friended me on steam and now we talk all the time. It took surprisingly little time for me to just... be entirely myself when talking to her. I'm usually at least a little bit reserved, but for some reason I'm just totally relaxed when I chat with her. I don't know entirely how to explain it as I don't have private conversations with a great many people so I only have so much frame of reference.

    Also, we seem to have a variety of shared interests. I've gotten her into a bunch of webcomics and we've been nerding out over stuff like Sleepless Domain and Kill Six Billion Demons, which is fun. I don't want to think too hard about this, because the last time this happened I basically turned into Anthony Carver, but I've been getting a lot more into that line of thought with people since getting on antidepressants last year.

    I think for the moment I will just kinda roll with it, and not do anything to potentially make things awkward. At least, not until I get to know her better. And also learn more about her personal life and whether or not she's seeing anyone. And a hundred other questions I come up with to continue stalling myself.

    Also I don't wanna rush in and potentially make things awkward when I'm still kinda working with her on my biggest ever voice over project.
