Feeling... content after another painting session :)
Also a li'l tired and hungry.
Not sure what to eat yet though. Not certain what I want to eat, just know I don't want to cook, hihi.

Double posting...

I don't think women are unapproachable, they're often very careful because they've come across one too many wankers (online).
Men who are only after sex (a helluva lot of 'em), men who are already in relationship (also a helluva lot), guys that ghost them and so on and so forth.

Women don't grow thicker skin either, they become scared to open their hearts again after a number of idiots trampled all over it.

Maybe it helps to know that emotional safety is extremely important to a woman. We need to know, sense, feel that a guy won't just bugger off, that he's reliable, can be trusted etc.
Only when a woman feels emotionally safe can she soften and open up to a man.
If you're that man, show you are such a man, that you won't do a runner when something doesn't go as planned or desired, that you're not just after sex but genuinely like the woman, things will change.

Most men do not understand women at all, don't even know that we need to feel emotionally safe in order to be able to soften and open up. And that's what you want as that means she feminine.
And also if you want a great sexlife with a woman... if she doesn't feel emotionally safe with you, doesn't feel she can trust you (with her safety, her heart, her everything!!) she cannot soften & open up and then... she cannot have great sex either. She won't be able to climax or won't really enjoy it.
It takes a helluva lot for a woman to open up and become totally vulnerable to let a man in (not just sexually, also emotionally, psychologically etc. etc.).

For men it's different. Men usually just think sex, that's a man's nature. You like a woman, you also want sex with her. You don't think about a relationship or future right away.
Women do!
And also good to know maybe that when a woman has sex with a man, and especially if she climaxes, she bonds. EVEN if she doesn't really want a relationship with the man!! It's the overdose of bonding hormones that are released in her body that cause that.
She can think, "Wait a minute, I don't want this bloke for my partner???" Yet the hormones do make her want him for a relationship.
Meaning...
A woman can become -what you guys feel is- needy. And she can't even help it. Just those hormones.

Best to not go direction sex. Wanting the attraction, feel the chemistry, sure. Nothing wrong with that.
But don't have sex yet (sorry, hihi) if you want a serious relationship. Build a non-sexual connection first. Sure you can flirt, tease a bit.
Might also be good to know that if a man has sex with a woman before he has actually bonded with her he will get turned off by her after he has had his orgasm!
That's because you then produce prolactine (hormone).
So if you're serious about a woman, don't go there yet, no matter how much you want to.
Having sex too soon -before you have bonded- might cost you the real great relationship with her cos you feel turned off afterwards.
And if you then dump her because you're turned off you also hurt the woman. Confirm her belief that all men are @$$holes.

This is all based on hours and hours of research.
Do with it what you like.
I would say, take advantage of it!!
Hardly any other man knows this stuff. When you take it to heart and follow it you might stand way better chance at getting a great woman. Cause you'll stand out from other men who don't know this and don't use this knowledge.

I think absolute Nr 1 (for me)... Ghost with Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore, Whoopi Goldberg.

The Ugly Truth - rom-com with Gerard Butler & Katherine Heigl

Done a lot of small tweaks and new things, like the stirrups, his jeans, boots, beginning of the saddle bag & slicker etc.

I noticed this afternoon that it looked as if his one leg was way longer than the other.
I measured with the reference image, it was actually okay. Only thing wrong was the angle of his right leg -that you see on the left.
So I got the paints out after dinner (only just finished up) and corrected that.

Colours are bit intenser than in real life cause I took it just now (evening) with the 'night' setting of the camera.

Must say that I really really really like the chaps, hihi.
I worked on those as I had to change the angle of that leg. I like them much better now!

Ha, you fixed the thread!!

If you're looking for a relationship and not a hot date, what I said (below) still applies...

Also, maybe next time don't get into hot conversation, no matter how difficult this may be for a guy.
More important to find out if you click and connect when talking about normal things.

Fact she started it doesn't mean you have to follow through with it. Unless you're after a hot date.

Always good to have some stuff to talk about that is not sex. Subject of sex is at times way to easy to go for but it doesn't create a real connection.

In any case, good luck with finding the next date! And at least you are dating :)

Me's thinking... the How I Feel Right Now thread is like a witch's Book of Shadows: you write in it and when you close it the text disappears.
The Free Masons or Illuminati would've loved that trick, hihi.

Same here! I began first episode of season 6, switched it off again real fast.
Very disappointing.
I read that it got better later on but I really couldn't be bothered anymore.
They should've ended the series with season 5. Best to end on a high.

Oh, it was Warren Brown. I would've sworn it was Ryan Philippe, haha.

Winchester & Stapleton did season 2 through 5, then others took over for 3 more seasons.
It wasn't nearly as good but they tried to keep fans watching by having Stonebridge and Scot show up a few times.
Didn't work. Not for me anyways.
1st season was with Richard Armitage.

Ah, I missed that, soz...
I'd kind of given up on following what was being posted as suddenly someone began posting endless tomes without clearly defining titles by making them bold, which didn't make it inviting to read through it.
I see that has stopped so I'll catch up on the last posts :)

I'm not a big Ryan Philippe fan either. The bloke can't help it, hihi, but it's that he took over season 6 of Strike Back and I wasn't happy that Stonebridge and Scot characters weren't there anymore.
Apart from that the new crew made a mess of things so it all went t*ts up.
That's when I started disliking Philippe as well, hahaha.

The 'how do you feel' thread is FU again so posting it here, hihi.

Me's feeling a bit tired.
Had to get up a little earlier to have my teeth cleaned. I never do well when I have to hurry to go somewhere in the morning. Affects my entire day as it upsets my head (TBI).

I hope she's not going to be upset that you talk about your date openly in the forums...
Not very gentlemanly to do that...

And a good thing you met up to find out :)

One Mile: Chapter One - movie 2026
I rate it an 8.

I liked it! Ending is a bit odd, but I guess it'll continue in One Mile: Chapter Two and wrap it up.

Fighting scenes are good. I never like fake looking fights.
Me thinks actor Ryan Philippe learnt a lot during his training for Strike Back, hihi.

Day 3 of my new painting.
Worked on the horse.
I'm actually quite happy with it!
Now wait and see how it works out when I add the saddle, bridle etc. etc.




Close-up of the horse....

CIA - new series, tonight's the 2nd episode.
Seems very promising!

With Tom Ellis, you know, Lucifer!
