Yea, i think everyone is picky. But i also think have a list of what you want in a person isn't helpful i think that when you meet the right person you feel it and everything is irrelevant I'm not sure about that. I gather that "someone somewhere will always say yes" - and that's how a fair few men operate. I can't be that mercenary though, just can't *shrugs* No but it is obvious that if you find them ugly, idiotic, moody and uninteresting... well need I finish the sentence lol?! ;D The bit about "meeting the right person you feel it" is sweet but I don't think that way anymore... sorry!

Everyone needs a negotiation starting point! What percentage would you settle for? 75% upwards. I don't expect to have a partner that totally agrees with me or we have everything in common but that we agree on the basics like trust, communication, love. I agree with that! My Mum always tells me that me and my Dad are similar people thats why we always argu. I know it is different but if you are too like your partner than you may clash... i dunno

Oh, and you don't ditch someone you've been with for ages by text Hurls! Have some decency - and some balls! All depends on how much you respect the individual concerned, however that is not the correct protocol when said partner is long term!

That sounds entirely fair and rational. ......and a little out of place on this thread.

pffft, you should fight for something you love..... you're borderline french you are I'd fought enough Morton... it ebbed away over the final 2 months or so, as she first decided to stop being engaged to me, then eventually stopped going out. There's nothing you can do as it slowly falls apart. Trust me.

Yea, but like my Mums friend she is settled with someone who she knows isn't right for her. He annoys her constantly and it is getting worse but she just doesn't wanna be alone and i think there is someone so much better for her out there and i think she needs to keep looknig til she thinks yea he is right and thats how i see it. Yea i maybe young still and seeing it through a dream world but thats how i hope it will be and i think when people have bad experiences they do not see it like that anymore and maybe it is a lesson i need to learn and will learn but i hope not. There are always the obvious things like me, i wouldnt choose someone who is boring.

Well surely you should have ended it when she no longer wanted to be engaged It's six years ago now Hurls... I probably should but see Mort's comments - I was trying to turn it around, retrieve the situation. Makes no odds to talk about it now so I'll stop
