    i mean how hard is for the oppposite sex to actually to chat back with you aaaaaaargh!!! i introduce myself say hi etc etc and nothing but they dont actually remove you from their contact list WTF?!! talk or not just do something!!!!
    From what you say, I have a feeling that most people consider those dating services as some sort of Glorified chat room or Myspace page in which you add dozens and dozens of 'buddies' even if they don't know who they are just so they can say to have 'friends' on their profile.

    dude you are spot on with that! When I was single my female friends were absolutely useless. They either knew girls who were already attached or are too lazy/selfish to introduce me to their single friends, they weren't even that hot!

    Dating sites are just as useless imho. A lot of the people on these dating sites seem to just be spammers or someone pretending to be someone else. I remember reading an article somewhere that a particular dating site had like 90% "fake"/fictitious users.

    I've always quite liked shaadi.com...it gave me an idea for a great reality TV show. Must get onto that what with all the Indian student-bashings going on atm.

    My solution - which admittedly comes with a certain amount of risk - is to sleep with your friends. It can backfire royally, but for me at least it's worked pretty well. That said, a lot of my friends are hippie chicks so it probably won't work for everyone.
    If not, start hitting on them and/or their sisters (if they have them - their mum if you're especially daring) anyway - betcha they'll suddenly remember someone who'd be just perfect for you.
    Again, comes with the risk of losing friends so exercise caution.

    Umm...If anyone sees a profile with a pic that looks suspiciously like Robin McGraw (Dr Phil's wife) maybe don't express interest...

    Ever have those days at work that something goes wrong, then the whole day everything else goes wrong?
    Ever have those days that when this happens, you just want to take a sledgehammer to the walls?

    I keep on getting static shocked by anything metal.
    I have broken at least 10 pens, stanley knife, nearly broke my stapler, and have a massive headache.

    I just want to go home and enjoy a cold refreshing beer and forget about today and enjoy the thought that I dont have to come back until the following week and just unpack my boxes of Transformers and other sruff and set my new house up.

    One thing I will dred is having to come in on tuesday to tell them that I will be leaving at the end of the month (providing I get this new job) otherwise I'm going to bonkers here and take everyone with me
