Hi all, got chatting to a woman this morning, i think it was going well, but she disappeared. I think it may have something to do with her damn old man and my lack of empathy.

1. I aimed for funny but i think it was the wrong funny
2. I started to feel the "lets be friends" thing happening but i continued on.
3. I avoided talking to much about her father

Any tips on what i did wrong would be appreciated, set backs like this dont help in further communication with other women.


Hi Kaarlski, you like beer i like beer. learning how not to think would be a handy thing to do, would make sleeping an easier thing to do.

Morning

Morning to you too, up early or is it a standard time for you?

Gotta get the kids to school

You'd be jealous of my friend, she literally takes 20 seconds to get the kids to school, the gate to school is directly over the road from her driveway. Why would guys stop talking to you? your profile appears ok.

I don't get jealous ;)
And they just do. 2 is been interested in lately, we have a few important things in common (things I find important) and just nothing.
U tend to feel a little weird after a while so i just stop messaging them


True, extended chit chat does get a bit weird. I think where all here for a purpose, and for me it isnt being a pen pal. How old are your kids?

But it doesn't even get to the extended part, or even close to a 'Hey let's catch up'. I don't do pen pals either.
5, 7, 9. It's busy


Are you free during the day?

Sometimes. I work part time and have kinder things on still, plus see my dad in rehab a lot lately


Good that you're keeping busy, last bit with the old man isn't good though. Do you think he will be better after rehab?

Nah it's been worse for him, it's a long story, he's a long term amputee, but while he was in there waiting for a new prosthetic leg, he fell and broke his hip. So it's pushed everything right back. So annoying.

How old is your father? 9.03 kids in class, is the youngest still in kinder or foundation?

He's 71. Yes older 2 at school, youngest doing 4yo kinder, she wasn't ready last year unfortunately

I see you have a decent sized beer in your photo, how do you manage a drink having kids?

Im trying to figure out the best time to meet up. It's hard to see someone who's always busy. The only time I can imagine you're free is during the weekdays, as the weekends are for the kids.

Yeah I only have every second weekend free, which now also starting to be consumed with sport. I'm the trainer for my son's footy, and daughter is starting netball too.
Do we actually have enough in common to go on a date?


Good point. No not at the moment.

Lol

Im thinking of going with a grunge look for dating as the clothes are cheap. I don't think I could bring myself to spend $200 on a pair of jeans. Do you do the fashion thing?

making chit chat now, I'll try and reveal more about myself so you can see is we have anything in common. But do we have to have a lot in common. I assume there's mutual attraction. Really all this bit is for is screening.

Not really. I'm more street wear than fashion. Have u been to savers?
I can tell btw


Messages got a but mixed up delay in app. Yep someone recently bought me there. Plenty of clothing, I think there better value than the salvos.

Haha wicked. U gotta be careful tho some things are over priced
I love the organization, I hate rummaging at op shops.. Lol


There some hidden gems in op, and yes mostly rubbish. Hey what did mean above with "I can tell btw"? If I did buy a pair on $200 jeans I'd use then when mowing the lawn, then you'd find them at the op.

I could tell u were making chit chat


Oh ok. So more in common, covered clothes shopping. Do you knock movies off the internet?

Haha I appreciate your effort. I used to, I haven't for ages I think my computer has finally given up the ghost and I have a new one but I don't know how to use it, lol. I'm a bit of a procrastinator

Is it plugged in. So you have stolen movies. Ok, you have questionable morals, that's good. Side note what TV series would you like to watch? It's ok to say game of thrones.

Lol my morals are very loose, but in a good way. And I don't watch much TV. I do like got yes.

I'll need you're first name for next one.

Karla. Your Nathan I assume

Yep Nathan, that's very perceptive of you. Ok. Cheap clothes, free movies, let's try environmental. Do you Karla put general waist in the recycle bin?

Lol you're funny. Red light for me
Not usually, no. I like recycle where possible.
Tell me about u. Although I don't mind answering questions, I'm not keen to ask them. I feel like I'm being too nosy for some reason


That's fine. Me well I don't recycle like I used too but I know it all goes into the same pile at the tip, some places sort through it. One I go to doesn't. More about me, it's all in my profile, I guess new thing is I bought a road bike 1kcc.

Lol does it really. The idea about that has actually crossed my mind. Like if ppl don't clean their plastic shit out right wouldn't it just contaminate everything? I don't wash stuff out. There's not very good knowledge out there about the do's and donts
So u mean a motor bike? Or a push bike? Lol I'm not really up to speed with bikes, that's how dad list his leg when he was 18. I'm not a massive fan but I have been on one recently


3) Motorcycle, im not a teenager. I've never had an issue with near misses riding. But who knows touch wood and all that. There an enjoyable machine to have and life's to short to worry about what ifs.

2) I don't mean to come across as reckless, I've worked in some dangerous industries so I know what to keep an eye out for.

1) What happened?
