So, actually, I looked for a denial from you of Peeks' inclusion of you in the fairer gender set. . . .but from your other remarks, how are things going with that NZ girl who came to your store. I thought you were going to make a move, and all, after asking for advice from the forlorn lost love guru in the LTE.

If you like what you see in a woman, speak to her. Well, from a guy sorta perspective. I don't know anything about any other perspective. . .

hoping we can welcome Mrs OneLove soon.

Hey Babe.. I couldn't build up enough courage to talk to her unfortunately... :) our plants shop most people that come to buy are middle age ladies/families or older people, so it's not like I get to meet people my age all the time... so when there is 1 person that I like it's very hard for me to even talk to them properly, I get all my words all mixed up and just start not making sense, etc...


I do feel like there is 1 special person for me but just don't feel like I've met that person yet unfortunately busy working 6-7 days/week doesn't help neither without much of a social life at the moment..


But yeah once I've met the right person you'll be the first to know!! :)

So you've got to accept that women are just what they are, and that in fact, not making any sense is about as endearing as any male behavior can be. So just let go of your good sense, and walk up to a pretty girl and obviously be out of your mind because you're so in love with her.

Yeah I did think about that AFTER she had gone... but by then it's too late... 'always too late' might as well be my middle name..


I'll have to try to be a bit less anxious and a bit more pro-active next time.. :)

Loved this until the last sentence. Enamored or smitten >>> in love with.

Babe teaching the creeper to stalk is scary.
 
Half the time you say you live a relaxed, stress free lifestyle and don't work much, and half the time you say you work too much to do anything. Get better at lying.

Haha .. good point. Let me clarify then. It is not stressful but it is time consuming. There were 3 people in our business but from the beginning of this year mom has retired leaving only two of us running the business and we are open 9-6pm, 7 days. So have to be here almost all the time but because it is our own business we are our own boss so we determine the pace therefore it is not stressful nor overexhausting.


The key is to have good planning over our production and ordering processes making sure there is enough products to sell.. plants are watered.. customers' questions or requests online are answered.. etc.. organising and planning is a big part of what we try to do.


Picking up the slack of mom's retirement has put a bit of pressure on me and my brother but we are adapting and finding ways to cope with the additional workload through better planning as well as buying in some plants that we used to propagate ourselves. There will be a smaller profit margin on some products but hopefully less stress on the two of us.

I confess I live in a world I interpret imaginatively. When I work I tell myself it's fun, better than a vacation, and so relaxing. Amazing how it actually works and I end up believing it and it ends up true.

No, I was just addressing the hesitancy expressed, and the lingering questions about some girl someone might have found interesting. Usually, talking to a girl removes the doubts. What women say or think is curative of imaginary love interests. Women are actually interesting, usually, regardless of their looks, if you are willing to respect their feelings, their ideas, and their interests. What's wrong or dysfunctional, is not being willing to do all that. Most women I wouldn't marry, or it wouldn't work if I did marry them or fall in love with them, but they are still interesting as human beings. Same thing for guys. Most guys wouldn't really want to spend a lot of time with me or get hung up on a relationship. Fun to talk, though.
