If you re-titled it Manless in Manchester, and give it a pukey happy ending, you could even sell the rights to Hollywood afterwards.

You could always point her in the direction of that thread that had the pictures on the people that were brave enough to post pics of themselves

Might be a good way of assessing future potentials

I know the kind of thing she's going through. My sister got married last August and by Jan her "husband" left her for someone else! She was completely heart broken and it's taking her a while to come through it. Tell your friend not to worry, everything happens for a reason and mr right will not be far away. I wish her all the best!

She's not fussy then

Professional means Teacher, Doctor, Lawyer, Accountant, Dentist, so she wants someone like that with plenty of money, willing to go out with her unseen, and then he needs to be reliable and all the other things as well?

She should set her sights lower.

Friend of the wifes in this kind of predicament, although she hates to admit it. Single, independant, proffesional and constantly on the look-out for mr. right. He may have come along at the mo', but it's early days, and he's a bit younger than she is, so it may be playtime on both sides.
Good luck to the lady, I can't imagine looking for a mate in this day and age.

Cheers Gav,

We have had that convo many times - she just cant see it at the minute. I'm sure you know what it is like trying to get that across. Thanks for your kind comments.

TT,

I can agree with what Scoobygav has said as my sister went through a very similar thing about 3/4 years ago (when she was 30). She went through a very tough period but pulled through and is now very happily married to her Mr Right and has very recently (about 3 weeks ago) given birth to a beautiful baby girl

Tell your mate that her Mr Right will come along but probably not when she's looking (as it happened for my sister).

Cheers

Andy

Could you not get Easyjet to Manchester for about £30 from Belfast these days?

As someone who spent a lot of time "on the road" (though not anywhere near as much of late) you can make the strangest and most amazing things work out. Worth thinking about if you are not attached.

I hope your friend is OK as she has had a bad time and her confidence must have taken a blow. I am also sure she has heard it many times that if he behaved like that then she is probably better of that he went when he did, but it is likely to be true and it is no reflection on her. So, I guess the best thing she can do is enjoy being who she is and get some confidence in herself and see what happens. At only a few quid for a flight and in view of the fact that you clearly care about her a lot is there any chance you might be going to be what happens? Worth thinking about as she might be overlooking the good stuff right in front of her.

I used to to 100 - 150 flights per year and it never did me any harm. Well, maybe a bit, but the doctor says that with the right therapy and tablets most people can hardly notice it.

Awww bugger, theyre giving free women away on Scoobynet and I am already married, typical.

Whats that sound ?, is it the sound of this lady scraping the bottom of a barrel coming on here.

Hope she gets sorted, she sounds like she deserves to, I have a spare brother in law to offer, plus cash adjustment either way.

I think the 'looking for long-term relationship' thing is going to put people off. It's not that people aren't interested in long-term relationships, it's just that they don't want to feel like they're going to be expected or obliged to do the long-term thing.
No-one going on a blind date with a girl they met via a third party on an internet forum is going to want to feel like they should be thinking long-term.
Sometimes best to just go with the flow and let the chips fall where they may.
