This might not be fate but I can’t miss taking the opportunity that has presented itself.

On Thursday morning I wrote a post called “Destined to be Alone?” and along with the many lovely comments came this from Miramaze:

“Get ready to receive .. this or better is on its way to you NOW”

Well, a few years ago, I joined a French Social Networking Site and I did meet a couple of very nice men friends (French ones) but nothing of any importance. So I decided to call it a day.

The main problems being caused by:

a) my poor grasp of the French language
b) their equally poor grasp of the English Language

Men and woman who speak the same language have difficulties understanding each other on the emotional front so it’s virtually impossible when you speak a different language. I know someone will ask “but what about the Language of Love – surely that’s enough?” Well believe me it isn’t.

Anyway, I regularly receive updates from the site which I normally delete right away. That was until yesterday when among the six profiles sent, I spotted an English ex-pat which is quite unusual on this site. Mindful of Miramaze’s message I decided to send a friendly "hello" and received a lovely message back. We have exchanged email addresses and we will see if we’ve got anything in common.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Oh and thank you Miramaze!
