What can I say? If I were in the market I'd definitely give you a call.
With a smile like that you'll do OK in Oz or UK, there are millions of men out there.

Used to live in Melbourne and met a few girls who were roadies (one of them got me into biking) - but still more blokies riding around!!!...... if you fancy giving the internet dating thingy malarky - i used rsvp.com.au and that had only a smattering of weirdos!

Good luck - on the brightside you do have The Great Ocean Road on your doorstep!

Christ the BF sounds like a right muppet, you weren't silly enough to have kids with him so go enjoy your freedom, and the sun.

Meh, non-problem, have fun!

Ooh great ocean road, bit of a sore one right now, that was the last trip we took together, but thanks.
Moses very sweet of you!
Peterfile your right I would have been super mad if I was stuck in Luton! ( I'm sure Luton is lovely if you live there, don't want to upset anyone!)

WG - If I was twenty years younger I'd be giving kudos a run for his money, having said that though, with age comes experience ( read imagination ). You should see my cellar.. 😀

Only kidding, hope all works out. The offer of the shed will still be here if and when u get back..

Wheeliegood = 50 something, bald, fat bloke who once owned an Apollo full sus, living in Bradford, who is dying to come out.

I suspected this as well...

However I have to say none to shabby in the slightest..

now..is there a female version of STW out there that I can post my lonely hearts tale on .... I could do with similar levels of attention 🙂

Chin up wheelie good, it could be worse. Think of the positives - in Oz, ride a sick bike, STWers at your feet, you've realised the guy you liked is a moron, and.. well, you're hardly gonna have problems finding another chap with those looks are you. Let's hope the new chap is nicer! From all the above, in my opinion you're too blessed to be stressed.

I would guess she's sacked out, thinking of the time differences.
Wheelie, I'm sorry things that looked so promising didn't work out, but, to be really honest, it's better you find out now, even after the move to Oz. You're in a warm sunny place, basically having a bitchin' holiday, while the UK enjoys the coldest March for fifty years! I can't really see a downside, really...
The bruises will fade, this I know from personal experience, you're a great looking lady, and you come across as having a warm, engaging and funny personality, a devastating combination as far as I'm concerned!
Enjoy your break in the warm, and look after yourself, let the (emotional) bruises fade, and come back with a whole new outlook on things.
(Trying to think of a way to crowbar two more bikes into my shed along with the four I own...) 😉

Nice boys are not nice, they all turn out to be wrong-uns!

All people are ****s, just some are liars also 😉

I've broken up with my avid brakes today, after 2 years I'd had enough of the constant screaming, they'd just give up on me when I needed them most and bleeding them was a real pain, no matter how I tried they wouldn't become hard. I don't mind a few quirks but I would be spending days doing calliper rebuilds and bleeding them. I wouldn't see my friends any more or go riding, they were taking over my life - I began to slump into depression... Today I decided that I couldn't take any more and ordered a pair of shimano 675s

[gotye]Now they are some brakes that I used to own[/gotye]

Well, really she should have posted asking for advice on some imminent goings on. Which in itself are not deadly serious but potentially highly amusing.

However, seeming to be a real person. It's not very STW is it. Unless its a double(triple?) bluff. In which case it's very STW.

look on the bright-side, you are not in a stupid country that SHOULD be basking in early spring but instead has entered another ice-age.

personally if i was you i'd get up to byron or thereabouts for a break and learn to surf like you mentioned. yes tons and tons of great waves down south, but sod that you need a party town!

2 hours sleep is that enough? Hmmm I mean I don't usually sleep much but maybe I should get some more? Could someone do me a favour and just knock me out, the alcohol from last night is now making me feel sick rather than sleepy!
Also really can't believe how awesome everyone on here is being, I guess we have all had our hearts broken at sometime, a sucky thing to have in common, but it's part of life and I will survive and get on with my life!
Oh and no one got me deleted o thanks for that too!

Oh, yes...
And quite recently. Indeed, it sucks.
Whatever, it's happened before, and I'm afraid I'm guilty of doing the same as well, the hurt I caused someone I loved stops me from ever doing it again. 😐

My ex has hurt a lot of people in his life, some weirdly are still his friends, he isn't a bad person at heart, and I don't think he meant to hurt me, but in a way I hope this hurts him more so he learns that he can't keep doing this to people, that if he can't feel love for anyone then he should stay alone.

Mrmoofo that was the big lie that started this whole mess, the way he talked about his habit before and when I got here. He made it sound as though it was well and truly in the past, which once I got here tuned out to not be the case, at first I didn't notice, then after a while I started noticing things, I asked he denied, I gave him so many opportunities to tell me, I asked again, he got angry saying how dare I accuse him of being an addict, I left it alone, finally we got talking and it all came out, I didn't care that he was using, I cared he had lied to my face, and once someone lies about one thing the doubt spreads, he was very flirtatious with his female friends and naturally that doubt started creeping in on that area too, not helped by the fact that one day he had left his facebook open on my iPad on a message page to a woman I had never heard of that said, "been thinking about you too, lets meet up discreetly though as too many people would get hurt if they found out, we can catch up and see whatever else happens" being the trusting person I am I gave him chance to explain, he said he had been drunk, it had come out wrong and he had said discreetly as the couple had just split up and being friends with them both he was worried the guy would find out and get mad if it looked like he was taking sides.
So again I gave him a chance and I got over it and nothing more was said on the matter. It all just feels like the biggest lie and a huge sick joke at my expense.
I'm also angry cause I have got to know his family really well, and his brother is a single dad to two great kids, who are 10 and 6 who I have grow to love like my own family, and I'm mad at him for telling them that we were always going to be there for them cause now I feel I have broken my promise to them.

Wheelie: this the normal chaos where people who know each other go off on tangents about threads lost before the great hack or back in the gofar days.

You were right to suspect but too trusting I think. It's human nature to want to trust people you care for in it!? You can do better though.

I had an overseas girlfriend move here to live with me many moons ago. When she got here I realised that the brief but passionate affair I'd just ended with an employee was actually who I REALLY wanted to be with.

To cut a long story short, my new 'affair' g/f eventually moved abroad, I suffered a nervous breakdown partly as a result, and the dumped ex. married a hunky fireman back in her own country and lived happily ever after. She still phones a few times a year...you girls can be an odd lot sometimes.

See, what goes around comes around.

These things happen for a reason. One of my ex's moved to Australia many years ago for 6 months to help her mum settle down there and we planned for me to go out for a month and have 2 weeks at her mums then spend 2 weeks travelling round. I worked my arse off for 2 months saving up doing stupid amounts of overtime. Got it all saved up, holiday sorted etc. Flew out (my 1st time ever on a plane) to Sydney-Melbourne-Tasmania only to get dumped after 2 days.
Need less to say the plans we'd made went right out of the window. I thought about flying back asap but decided to just get on with it. Ended up meeting some great people (1 I still ride with now as he moved to London) and had a ball. I also ended up meeting some guys who worked in the same line as me. Cut a long story short...got a message off them about 6 months later asking me if I fancied going out to work for 6 months. Had the best time ever..
I guess what I'm trying to say is - make the most of it, what ever you decide to do. If you can stay there for a while, do it, enjoy it and see what happens 🙂

I actually love it here too, but might give the men a miss for a bit, back to good old lonely singledom it is.

What sucks about all this right now is that my ex was the person who has been there for me for the last 7 years and was the one I would always turn to in times of need and now I can't do that, I'm not sure i have ever been this let down by one person in my life, even when I split from my husband it didn't hurt this much.

Textbook case of getting back together in the end and again would still split up for good. Not meant to be harsh.. Just ride the waves you will be fine .. As most cases of the heart only time can heal and tell...

...and i agree with you, some people are better off alone..some of us learned this in a hard way 😉

Sorry STW - WG, spent the night at mine, clearly up to no good on the internet.

I can confirm that picture is a fair likeness. A little photo-shopped but almost right.

She's been fed Cider to cheer her up. So nothing to worry about.

I remember you asking for advice prior to coming over. Hope the visa is solid and for you not joint. Plenty to enjoy over here whatever you decide to do, it's a great country to explore. In the end things happen for a reason (though we never find out which one)

Hope things turn out OK.
