Opinion The joys and madnesses of relationships...

Remove this Banner Ad

What about people who have no interest in AFL?

Like Argentinian polo players or guys who make model trains in sheds.

Start with no bias and introduce them to the game?
Yes, this could work.
Would prefer the outdoorsy type please:)

It's all very well to be talking about the joys and madnesses of relationships but my joy and madness is not actually being in one.
I figure this could be a good project for you all for the off season - to find me a worthy companion.:)

Reading through this thread again I've decided I'm a fairly easy person to live with; I don't care what milk he buys (cos I never buy it), or which frozen peas he brings home (cos I never buy them) and I don't have a food processor hidden in the back of the cupboard, so no danger of throwing it out by mistake.
And I don't have teenage children creating havoc

So, I'll settle for tall dark and handsome, slim, healthy, and mature, and barracks for Collingwood.:D
Easy peasy!

I can expand on this, and fine tune it of course, when you present me with a few candidates:)
What do you think?

MG, I offer you ............................. my brother-in-law.
Let's see, tall (tick), dark (tick), handsome (tick), healthy, (tick) ............... this is where it gets a little sticky (no!!!!!!!! not that type of sticky !!!).
Mature, well as much as a bloke who lived at home and had his bum wiped by his mummy until age 32 can be. He's not immature as such, but he's still a boy in an adults world at times. That is possibly 'adorable' to a woman who wants to take over and completely re-mould him. What a magnificent challenge for you MG.
Barracks for Collingwood? Will Carlton do? Good news is that his favourite saying is 'Carlton's useless', his passion for footy is lukewarm and soccer is his major love so the Blues are in the background.

You see MG, it's like this, I need a woman to marry this man and procreate. Why? Because we need babysitters !!!!!!.
Would I leave the kids with him overnight? NOOOO !!!!! We need a wife who's way smarter than him.
He may not sound much of a catch, but he's a handsome dude who loves his family. He'll never do you wrong, he just needs a strong woman to rule his world and make him her pet.
Is this you MG? Are you up for the challenge? What time do you want us to drop off the kids?
 
Yes, this could work. Would prefer the outdoorsy type please:)

Okay - I have Wonjong and Paresh working on your psychometric profile. They asked:

4. Do you like horror movies?

5. Andrew Lloyd Webber: hero or music criminal?

6. What is Australia's most pressing social problem:
a) throw cushions covered in cheap fabric
b) hipsters
c) hatred directed at people from Frankston
d) all of the above

This is an offer almost too good to refuse GM, but refuse I must:(
As a result of my many trips to Italy I know, without doubt, that I do not want a mammone (mummy's boy). Your brother-in-law sounds like a nice young man, and yes I meet most of your requirements, but my man must be decisive and self sufficient, able to iron his own underpants and cook beautiful meals for me sometimes.

My sincere thanks for the recommendation:)

You ask a lot of hard questions Walter.

4. Hate horror movies
5. ALW - a bit of both. Can't stand Cats but most of the others have been good.
6. This is a hard one. I'll go with c, closely followed by a. Who cares about hipsters?

MG, are you trolling me? Wonjong said that every other respondent since 2004 has agreed that Andrew Lloyd Webber is a music criminal.

Please tell me you haven't put 'love the Broadway cast recording of Les Miserables' on RSVP.com.au...

No, I haven't done that.
I promise

But I am my own woman Walter; if I had that would be ok :)

Hahaha! Very true, MG. Anyway, Argentinian polo players probably love Evita.

Sheesh, I remember some of the mad dates I went on. My wife spared me: we lived together for 3 years, broke up for 6 years, then got back together and married.
 
Walter I should also mention that I loved The Shawshank Redemption when I saw it - the first 3 times, but I am so over everyone quoting it as their favourite movie now:rolleyes:
So that won't swing it for me.
Could you please let Wonjong know?

You can trust Wonjong.

He is also filtering out guys pictured beside drugged tigers and anyone from postcode 3977 (too many bad experiences).

Give him some time to crunch the data and reference-check the shortlist.

They seemed so promising until....

All very scary options, although I'm sorry I can't help Wonjong:(




Don't you have an older brother?

The end!

And now you'll never get those 6 years back :D
 
Magpie Girl

I hear this man, tall, dark, handsome, very very very rich.
Likes sport.
Takes long walks on grassy paddocks, at times 4 days a week.
May like teams with a Tiger connection, but could see him as a Magpie
From these profile pictures obviously a great family man....

I like carrot coladas and taking trots in the rain. Can I be your mane man?
 
Praise Buddha that my daughter's boyfriend has just returned from his surfing safari!

He has a positive impact on the whole family: daughter is obviously happier, he acts as an older brother to my son, gardens, and cooks a mean barbecue. Even the pets are calmer.

Hope the relationship works out for them. IF it doesn't, I'm adopting him and daughter will be sent to boarding school.
I just don't understand what this all has to do with Garry Hocking though?
