Met someone last night, could be more meetings, not sure yet... however, her work is a bit.. weird, load-of-bollocks type thing.. do I mention I think this? Well, ok, I'll tell you - she's a homeopath.
You see the dilemma? I am not a playa, btw 😆
Is her name Louise?
Christ, not another sexuality type.
Just boff her a really tiny amount...
Is her name Louise?
Then there would be no dilemma 😀
just be yourself!
Is she fit?
Is she solvent? Owns her own home?
If yes to all three 😄 crack on.
Christ, not another sexuality type.
2 if you include playa
Just boff her a really tiny amount…
Standard.
Just ask her whether a really dilute amount of Royhpnol would protect her in case she drank some in future
Lots to answer!
just be yourself!
So you think I should get rid? 😆
If yes to all three 😄 crack on
Yes! But she's a homeopath!
it's the kind of thing you can put up with in the short term... but if this plays out the way it could, and ends up being a longer term affair, then your feelings WILL raise their head on the matter and you WILL blurt out she's basically a snake oil salesperson
she’s basically a snake oil salesperson
Exactly.. who... get this... [i]trained for FOUR years[/i]!
Cheap date? Hide one bit of amazing foot in her water
Cheap date? Hide one bit of amazing foot in her water
she might not be into the kinky stuff tbf
Is she over 30?
Then choose 2 of 3.
Attractive.
Sane.
Single.
Would you date someone who went to church 3 times a week?
Yes! But she’s a homeopath!
Avoid. She’ll probably try to murder your house.
Is she solvent?
Yes, but only in water or some kind of unscented carrier oil.
Exactly.. who… get this… trained for FOUR years!
So not so much a con artist, just incredibly gullible? You may or may not wish to use this to your advantage.
House Point for perchy and the capt.
Would you date someone who went to church 3 times a week?
It's definitely a comparison.
Is she over 30? Brilliant! No mate, she's half my age! 😆
Get them chatting about the music they like.
What could possibly go wrong 😉
Yup music is a big one
..if she says 'all sorts really' when you ask what sort of music she likes...get rid...likewise if she owns any 'Now that's what' compilation. begone with you false wench.
Is she over 30? Brilliant! No mate, she’s half my age!
Really? And you are bothered about what she does for a living?
Personally I couldn't be dealing with that bollocks but, morally bankrupt? as I am, I equally wouldn't be passing up some shenanigans with someone half my age (provided she's attractive and I was 36 or over).
Not sure why having a wide ranging taste in music is a bad thing?
LOL at Fasthaggis, DezB goes on date with homeopath, chat turns to music, DezB ends up being the weirdo...
*logs on to Singlehomeopathworld to check for similar stories*
I assume you don't believe in it homeopathy
So, she believes in something you fundamentally don't... or she doesn't believe it and will take advantage of those who do...
It doesn't bode well for the long term tbh...
It might be worth exploring if you can determine that other than that you fundamentally share the same values and can agree to disagree on this but i think its pretty unlikely.
My experience of someone who believed she could see auras (rather than just de-focusing your eyes until you had eye strain and saw colours...) went down this line...
I basically couldn't respect that in her, we were doomed to fail.
DezB goes on date with homeopath, chat turns to music, DezB ends up being the weirdo
Exactly! I'd never bring MUSIC up on a first date 😆
[i]or she doesn’t believe it and will take advantage of those who do…[/i]
I think I'd be cool with that 😉
No mate, she’s half my age!
Back of the net!
@fitness Yeah but was she a freak between the sheets? That could swing it...
@gobuchul this has to be the best set up #humblebrag of the year so far.
LOL at Fasthaggis, DezB goes on date with homeopath, chat turns to music,
She should go on Name that Tune with Lionel Blair. I bet she’d be shit hot at it.
“I’ll name that tune in... one part in a million”
My missus goes and sees a Crystal woman every now and again...
I call her Weird Wendy... I couldn't honestly care how real or fake it is, it keeps the wife happy... Other than that she's very normal.
I wouldn't let her career worry me.... especially as she's half your age and presumably hot with it.
😆
She's not really half my age. That was (very) sarcastic. Under 30 is a very distant memory for us both.

Had a few dates with someone who was big into natural and alternative remedies/medicine. She stopped speaking to me after my incredibly witty remark of 'You know what the name given to alternative medicine, that works, is? Medicine.'
Perchy, do you wait for threads before you start mining for gold, or do you stockpile?
so does the water remember everything thats ever dissolved in it, or just the stuff you like?

I once drank a pint containing some water molecules that had previously fallen on Steve Coogan as rain - it tasted funny.
Perchy, do you wait for threads before you start mining for gold, or do you stockpile?
I’m like the Thorin Oakenshield of STW.
You wait...
Time passes...
Perchy sits down and starts singing about gold
On the plus side, at least she's going to be more satisfied with a tiny, err, acorn, than with a massive great big throbbing, umm, oak tree.
No mate, she’s half my age!
Did she start the date the same age as you?
He’s only met her for five minutes but she now thinks she’s in a long term relationship
Do you get on with her?
I'm not into everything the wife does. She can't care less about my bikes.
Do you really want an identical clone of yourself? You'll be wearing matching cardigans next.
Guess what thread she's started on Homeopath.world.com? "I met a guy last night but he's a CYCLIST!!!"
Differences in outlook and interests can he a good thing. Do you like her? That's all that matters.
Do you like her? That’s all that matters.
I think up to a point but if your partner's occupation makes you scoff with incredulity at their gullibility it's a big ask for both of you to see past that.
He’s only met her for five minutes but she now thinks she’s in a long term relationship
Ah perchy, you've hit the nail this time 😆
Do you like her? That’s all that matters.
I don't think I would've started this very serious discussion if it was.
Variety is the spice of life and all that....as long as you don't plan on spending your time debating the merits of homeopathy then I'd imagine you'll be alright.
I don’t think I would’ve started this very serious discussion if it was.
Then you have reservations about her. End of.
Next.
If only you'd been the first reply. 😥
Bet Sarawak is brilliant at speed dating. Or, at least, efficient.
I read a thing a little while ago about emotions and long term relationships. They interviewed couples at a various stages in the relationship, and analysed the expressions on their faces as they talked about stuff. Happiness, sadness, jealousy, surprise, confusion, humour, anger, contempt etc.
you get all sorts of people in all sorts of relationships, but apparently the one emotion that a relationship is really hard to survive is contempt.
So it depends how strongly you feel about homeopathy. Humour and disbelief, or contempt? And then it depends on whether you're happy with a bit of fun for a while with Miss NotQuiteRight, or whether you don't want to waste any time.
My missus believes in ghosts, I dont and think it's a load of old bollocks. We roll along just fine.
OP, go with the flow and see what happens.
Just change the conversation. For example ask her what she thinks about vaccinations
Depends on the level she subscribes to homeopathy.. if she just takes a few sugar pills for a cold and the like, it's relatively harmless (but bollocks obviously).. however if her work recommends homeopathic remedies over conventional medical treatment for cancer, tumours, organ failure etc then avoid..
Perhaps play stupid and ask why she drinks tap water, and how come that doesn't have a memory of sewage etc?

nah, you have to shake it in a special way - perhaps that's why she's after Dez ? (or what he's hoping for) 🙂

Does it ever accidentally get shaken that special way in the pipes, and you end up with a mouth full of liquid poo?! 🙂
Do what you should do in any dating situation. Bail out once the juice is no longer worth the squeeze.
Sane.
Erm, homeopathy?
I once went out with a girl who was into all that hokum-pokukum bull****. She told me that she was so in tune with nature that on occasion she could see aura's coming off trees . When on one such occasion she pointed to a large tree and exclaimed that she could see it's aura rising up above, I had to explain that it was in fact a swarm of midges.
Not Bees ?
Does she know about your wooden leg with the real foot?
I’d show her that vid you posted the day you rolled into a field..
We laughed, if she laughs she’s normal IMO.
I thought I could see a distinctive surrounding atmosphere once coming off my carton of orange squash.
Turned out it was a Kia-Ora.
I do apologise. 😐
Does she know about your wooden leg with the real foot?
Bit early to break that one out 😀
I must confess, she told me about the homeopathy in a way that implied I wouldn't know what it was... and I sort of pretended I didn't. It was quite early on though. Which makes me think, if I see her again to just ask if she minds that I think it's a load of bollocks. This thread has helped me come to that decision. Thanks all 😀
Bail out once the juice is no longer worth the squeeze.
But does Dez's juice have memory of everyone that has ever squeezed?
He’s only met her for five minutes but she now thinks she’s in a long term relationship
5 minutes in a lifetime is a pretty strong concentration in homeopathy terms.
someone who believed she could see auras
Could be worse. She could see horas
if I see her again to just ask if she minds that I think it’s a load of bollocks.
If she is a homeopath, then it will only be a tiny, tiny bit of bollocks...
I thought I could see a distinctive surrounding atmosphere once coming off my carton of orange squash telly during X-Factor.
Turned out it was a KiaRita-Ora.
Just say you are really interested in Homeopathy and could she recommend some good peer reviewed scientific papers you could read on the subject.
She could see horas
I saw one of those this morning, funnily enough. Magnificent as ever...
Scratch her with a rusty nail after a few weeks you'll never see her again.
It's an absolute miracle a large chunk of STWers are not single, or buried under a patio.
Well Mrs Gti had a job selling very expensive skin cream for a fancy brand, which I don't see as much different from homeopathy as far as conning the public goes. A year after she winkled me out of my bachelor pad and got me to marry her, she gave up the job with a big sigh of relief to concentrate on being a Mum, so maybe if things progress homeopathy might just turn out to be a bit less important to Ms Dating Dilemma.

Unlikely to kill people though. Question is are you willing to be in a relationship with someone stupid enough to risk the lives of her clients due to her own ignorance.
my mate once dated one of those homeopaths
she was mental, she accused him of cheating, dumped him then posted him an envelope with his calvin kleins cut into neat little 20mm x 20mm squares..
what kind of ****ed up is going to a post office to post an ex boyfriends pants
posted him an envelope with his calvin kleins cut into neat little 20mm x 20mm squares.
I'd have thought it would be a million envelopes none of which contained any actual pant.

globalti clearly doesn't know me at all 😆
You just need to align your shakra and balance your Chi DezB. Once that’s done you’ll get along with her fine. Ooh don’t forget to put a stone under your pillow and dangle crystals from the light shades or some shit too!
my missus, (points at the long blonde staring at her laptop) does really really hard sums at Oxford Uni for her pdf (or is is phd, I can never remember), she also spends an unhealthy amount of time doing online quizzes that promise prizes. There are websites and forums and all sorts. She's never won a thing, but gets an amazing amount of spam to her email. In her head these two things aren't connected.
I still fancy the pants off her though. after all, takes all sorts.

The most auspicious time to make your move is when Mars is in alignment with Uranus.
Remember and take the wrapper off first.

Inuendo bingo at its finest
Fweng Shi at La Maison Du Desmond next up
Reki massage, chanting and dream catchers will adorn the front room
Why does my mind replace Homeopath with Sociopath ?
Homeopath with Sociopath
Because that’s what it would be? 😀
I hope you’re taking precautions DezB? With her skills a peck on the cheek could turn into a pregnancy.
