Are you Carrie from Sex and the City? :confused: :D :D
well kind of and before you ask I am no sex expert nor have I a PHD in relationships but this is a Carrie Bradshaw-esque column but without the high heels and short skirts. Well I won’t be wearing any short skirts or high heels. I am trying to write my way into a job in america and so i'm giving a male’s insight, mine, into relationships. To set the record straight, I am in no way a casanova but I do fall somewhere between those who dance desperately to the lads who pull regularlyQuote:

nope im desperate for a job. and seeing as every other outlet in the paper is taken i have to turn to this and a music column!! its the luck of the draw for me at least.
Why dont you bring your irish-ness into play? Talk about the differences between the US and 'ol' catholic emerald isle'? Does the 'out of town' effect work for you?
How much do we get for contributing to it? :confused:
Why don't you get some of those "the difference between men and women" emails, and turn them into a column?
Americans don't seem to get irony, so they may think you're giving some deep, psychological insights!
On this subject, I presume alot of blokes on here get accused of 'bottling things up' by their birds :p ?Quote:

Like what the f**k is that about? Just cos I dont want to talk about gay stuff like describing her in one word earlier on today, like what kind of f**king question is that to ask a bloke and she's now said i bottle things up cos i couldnt describe her in one word? (truthfully I should have said 'annoying' :rolleyes: ).
Any suggestions on what I should say to make it look like im one of these new age guys that can bluff about their feelings (like I can talk about my feelings but that would get me in trouble eg the 'annoying' description :D )

Or, the psychology of the raised toilet seat, and 1001 other things that annoy her?
Or the phenomenon of the Totty Watch thread on this message board? :D

So there's a tip for ye fellas if a doll asks ye to describe her in one word and ye want to keep all your options open use the word 'fun' ;) !!
