I have been a member of this site for a long time now and have always thought of doing a blog but never log on with enough regularity to keep one upto date.
I think it is another good way for non-members to get a better idea of who I am and what I want out of this site so what the heck I might as well give it a blast.
My mind does tend to wander when I am flowing so if I go off on a tangent, try and stay with it! I will also say whilst I will make my best attempts to correct my spelling, alot of bad uns are gonna get through.
Ok then, that will do as an introduction.
Have fun 
Please if you must comment lets keep it nice and constructive nobody likes a cyber bully.

A nice relaxing morning in bed, alone again. By choice I admit but the pickings are getting slim. Where are all the sane people gone?

One particular lady, and there is no doubt she is is a fantastic person who happens to have an interest in conversation and company not just sex keeps me very happy. But we see each other very rarely now a days. New fella on the scene and I'm not the type to bird unless he's a swinger, sadly he's not, if only he knew what she was capable of 
So, do you know who your with? Do they know who their with? Are you single?

So much work that's had to be done recently but finally it's all over and the fruits of my work are blossoming.
People think that life is ironic, the true irony is people think life is ironic.

Got an ad on one of the other free to use dating sites.
Had a couple of dates from it but not felt that spark yet so not taken any further than one or two short dates.
Got chatting to another last few days and we arranged to meet for coffee at a near by shopping mall.
The time came and went.
I have a fifteen minute rule and if no contact by then I'm off I don't mind lateness but to not give you the curtsy of a call or text is just rude.
As it was I had got a coffee and just sat passing the time people watching and pondering my now free afternoon.
The dating scene is hard enough but to just blank you when arranging to meet is a quick way to get blocked and miss out o meeting a great guy!!!
Lol so that's my mini rant of the day.
Mr Dom.

I'm in a great mood today so please don't of this as a depressing post, I wanted to so much share this, I think it's amazing.......
Please Hear What I'm Not Saying
Don't be fooled by me.
Don't be fooled by the face I wear
for I wear a mask, a thousand masks,
masks that I'm afraid to take off,
and none of them is me.
Pretending is an art that's second nature with me,
but don't be fooled,
for God's sake don't be fooled.
I give you the impression that I'm secure,
that all is sunny and unruffled with me, within as well
as without,
that confidence is my name and coolness my game,
that the water's calm and I'm in command
and that I need no one,
but don't believe me.
My surface may seem smooth but my surface is my mask,
ever-varying and ever-concealing.
Beneath lies no complacence.
Beneath lies confusion, and fear, and aloneness.
But I hide this. I don't want anybody to know it.
I panic at the thought of my weakness exposed.
That's why I frantically create a mask to hide behind,
a nonchalant sophisticated facade,
to help me pretend,
to shield me from the glance that knows.
But such a glance is precisely my salvation, my only hope,
and I know it.
That is, if it's followed by acceptance,
if it's followed by love.
It's the only thing that can liberate me from myself,
from my own self-built prison walls,
from the barriers I so painstakingly erect.
It's the only thing that will assure me
of what I can't assure myself,
that I'm really worth something.
But I don't tell you this. I don't dare to, I'm afraid to.
I'm afraid your glance will not be followed by acceptance,
will not be followed by love.
I'm afraid you'll think less of me,
that you'll laugh, and your laugh would kill me.
I'm afraid that deep-down I'm nothing
and that you will see this and reject me.
So I play my game, my desperate pretending game,
with a facade of assurance without
and a trembling within.
So begins the glittering but empty parade of masks,
and my life becomes a front.
I idly chatter to you in the suave tones of surface talk.
I tell you everything that's really nothing,
and nothing of what's everything,
of what's crying within me.
So when I'm going through my routine
do not be fooled by what I'm saying.
Please listen carefully and try to hear what I'm not saying,
what I'd like to be able to say,
what for survival I need to say,
but what I can't say.
I don't like hiding.
I don't like playing superficial phony games.
I want to stop playing them.
I want to be genuine and spontaneous and me
but you've got to help me.
You've got to hold out your hand
even when that's the last thing I seem to want.
Only you can wipe away from my eyes
the blank stare of the breathing dead.
Only you can call me into aliveness.
Each time you're kind, and gentle, and encouraging,
each time you try to understand because you really care,
my heart begins to grow wings--
very small wings,
very feeble wings,
but wings!
With your power to touch me into feeling
you can breathe life into me.
I want you to know that.
I want you to know how important you are to me,
how you can be a creator--an honest-to-God creator--
of the person that is me
if you choose to.
You alone can break down the wall behind which I tremble,
you alone can remove my mask,
you alone can release me from my shadow-world of panic,
from my lonely prison,
if you choose to.
Please choose to.
Do not pass me by.
It will not be easy for you.
A long conviction of worthlessness builds strong walls.
The nearer you approach to me
the blinder I may strike back.
It's irrational, but despite what the books say about man
often I am irrational.
I fight against the very thing I cry out for.
But I am told that love is stronger than strong walls
and in this lies my hope.
Please try to beat down those walls
with firm hands but with gentle hands
for a is very sensitive.
Who am I, you may wonder?
I am someone you know very well.
For I am every man you meet
and I am every woman you meet.
Charles C. Finn
September 1966

Hello, hope your all well.
Lots of the same old faces out there but plenty of new ones as well.
If your looking for stimulating conversation and someone who is confident and knows how to treat people right, why not strike up a conversation with me, you never know where it could lead.
Mr. Dom

Ok the rules are simple, like me
1) pick a question from the list below and answer it.
2) You cant answer a question already answered, no matter how much better you think your answer is (oh well go on then, as long as it is better!)
3) have fun.
1) Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, "I think I'll squeeze these dangly things here, and drink whatever comes out"?
2) If the "blackbox" flight recorder is never damaged during a plane crash, why isn't the whole damn airplane made out of that stuff?
3)Who watched a white, hard thing come out a chicken's ass and thought, "that ought to taste good"?
4)Why does Goofy stand straight while Pluto remains on all fours? They're both dogs!
5)Can blind people see their dreams?
6)If Wile E. Coyote had enough money to buy all that Acme crap, why didn't he just buy dinner?
7)If quizzes are quizzical, what are tests?
 If a man is talking in the forest, and no woman is there to hear him, is he still wrong?
9)Why is it that when someone tells you that there are over a billion stars in the universe, you believe them, but if there is a "wet paint" sign somewhere, you have to touch it to make sure?
10)Why do the alphabet song and "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" have the same tune?
11)Why do they call it an 'asteroid' when it's outside the hemisphere, but call it a 'hemorrhoid' when it's inside your ass?
12)Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him on a car ride, he sticks his head out the window?
13)Why do we say something is out of whack? What is a whack?
14)Why does "fat chance" and "slim chance" mean the same thing?
15)Why is bra singular and panties plural?
16)Why do you press harder on the buttons of a remote control when you know the batteries are dead?
17)Why do we wash bath towels? Aren't we clean when we use them?
1Christmas is weird. What other time of the year do you sit in front of a dead tree and eat candy out of your socks?
19)Can you cry under water?
20)Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby" when babies wake up like every two hours?
21)Why are you IN a movie, but you're ON TV?
22)Why do people pay to go up tall buildings & then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?
23)Why do toasters always have a setting that burns toast to a horrible crisp which no decent human being would ever eat?
24)What do you call male ballerinas?
25)When someone says that the "Song That Never Ends" never ends, why do we automatically start singing it to make sure? (You'll never stop singing)
26)Why is it that rain drops but snow falls?
27)Why does the sun lighten our hair, but darken our skin?
2Why is lemon juice made with artificial flavor and dishwashing liquid made with real lemons?
29)Why is the time of day with the slowest traffic called rush hour?
30)Why isn't there mouse-flavored cat food?
31)Why isn't there a special name for the tops of your feet?
32)What do you call a male ladybug?
33)What hair color do they put on the driver's license of a bald man?
34)If the 7-11 is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, why does it have locks on the door?
35)Why do they put Braille dots on the keypad of a drive-up ATM?

I have been reading a lot of blogs and the biggest moan on this site is about Players and how fed up peeps are of them.
I would say if you want to avoid a player try a softer dating site ;0)
for the rest here is a guide to spotting a player.
If you've been dating, especially on the internet, this is an important guide for you. Some players are so good, you need some tips. So here they are:
1. He or she falls very fast and very hard for you. This at first is flattering. But think about it - is it normal? In a normal relationship, a man or woman moves at a gradual pace to "get to know" the other person. They will call up for a date, if the date goes well, they will ask for a second date. They will probably call you prior to the second date (they should, anyway, to make arrangements). But if they start calling or text messaging you every day after that first date, it's not normal. Don't be flattered, be wary.
2. He or she asks too many questions about "what you want in a man/woman." Someone might ask you this casually, to find out what you're looking for, that's fine. But when it becomes the Spanish Inquisition on the first date - look out. He or she is not interested in finding out what you want - he or she is finding out what they have to pretend to be to "get" you.
3. He or she has had too many "stalkers" or people who were "obsessed" with him or her in their past dating relationships. Gosh, they sure hope you aren't like that. I have been dating on and off since I was 16. I am a half-way decent looking man. I have never had anyone "stalk" me. Why? Because I was honest when the relationship ended and told the other person so. Sure, there are nuts out there who don't take "no" for an answer and persist, but stalkers? Not too many. Stalking is a crime and not as prevalent as the player would like to believe. Sure, he or she could have met someone who was a little "off." But to have too many people "obsessed with them" or "stalking" them is a sign that he or she played them and the victim just wanted to find out what was going on. Chances are, he or she, dropped the "stalker" like a hot potato, after he or she got done playing the game with them.
4. He or she becomes jealous or possessive too soon in the relationship. And in a normal relationship, anytime someone becomes jealous or possessive is too soon. The whole concept of having a relationship is trust. If this person doesn't trust you, it means you can't trust them. The player imagines that because he or she isn't honest, the object of his game isn't honest, either.
5. He or she runs hot and cold. One minute, they are ready to commit to you for life. The next, they are telling you to see other people. They are giving you a huge signal here but you have to be able to pick up on it. They want you to be there for them, but they want their freedom, too. That way, when they are tired of playing with you, they can always fall back on the fact that they told you that "you could have seen other people." They will forget the times they committed to you. Or say they were only joking.
6. They have too many friends of the opposite sex. The player likes attention, very much. But he or she can only feel gratified if they can get it from the gender to which they are attracted. These "friends" are usually people with whom the player has played but who haven't had the brains to get rid of him or her. There's nothing wrong with having friends of both sexes, but when a man or a woman has only friends of the opposite sex, it's strange.
7. They are cold or uncaring about a past relationship that they ended. Most people with a conscience feel bad about hurting someone's feelings. The player will profess that they "hate" hurting other people's feelings, but their actions will be completely the reverse.
8. They start talking sex too soon. This applies to a player who is a man. If the player is a woman, she will start talking about money too soon. She might even hit you up for a loan. Word of advice to both men and women here: Women: Don't have sex with someone unless you are 100 percent sure that they love you and have professed it and aren't seeing anyone else or if your comfortable enough with them to sleep with them. This isn't the way to go about "hooking" a man. It will only make you feel used. Men: Don't loan money to anyone you've just met, especially over the internet. I think men are preyed on even more than women on the internet. Please don't believe someone who has fallen in love with you instantly who lives in Russia but needs money to get out. You'll never see the woman, or your money again.
9. Usually a player becomes a player because of gross insecurity. What do they do for a living? Are they happy with their life? Have they gotten over their past marriage or long-term relationship? Have they even had a marriage or long-term relationship? If someone is over the age of 40 and has never had a long term relationship, that's a big red flag. They don't want one. If a man or woman is divorced for 20 years and hasn't has a relationship since, another red flag. They are content with the single life. They might try to convince you that you are "the one" to get the out of it, but in reality, they are perfectly content with the status quo.
10. This is the biggie - you catch them in lie after lie after lie. A good player might have the brains to write everything down. But a bad one will just forget that he or she told you the night before they had to go visit a sick friend and when you ask about the friend they tell you that he or she is on a cruise. A player is not an honest person. In fact, lying is almost second nature to them. If you catch someone in a cache of lies, don't ignore it; confront it. Chances are, the player will see that you are on to him or her and move on to the next prey.
There are internet sites that post photos of men and women who are players. You have to take some of these sites with a grain of salt; you never know if a woman was played or just scorned. There is a difference. A man might simply not be interested in a woman anymore, for whatever reason, and he breaks it off. She's angry (hell hath no fury) and decides to post his photo on "dontdatehimgirl.com." This doesn't always mean the guy is, what used to be called, a heel.
Realize that a date is not a commitment to marriage; it's just a date. Unless you are exclusive with the other person, you have no right to question their whereabouts. A man or woman isn't a "player" unless they attempt to play with your emotions; unless they try to get you to fall in love with them while having no regard for you. People usually do this to boost a poor self-image. That's why, when you're dating, you can avoid a player simply by having enough respect for yourself and a positive self image. And realizing that there are worse things in life than sitting home alone on a Saturday night.
