well I joined the forum after a really horrid date earlier on this year, and just wanted to get some insight from the guys perspective. I have stayed on the forums since because I value the advice and am becoming a better person for it. For example the guy I talk about in this thread, before joining I would have happily let him follow me until he got the message and walked away, but having read how this has impacted on guys jn different ways, I dud the mature thing and told him straight. So, what I am trying to say is me being in the forum guides me in becoming a better date for your English brothersJust a Shot Away said:
