Online Dating - my search

Poem for the ladies

I feel the cool fresh air
It is striking on my face
It comes from everywhere
And has no hiding place

It gives me energy
To try to think really clear
What a beautiful world this would be


If we all were so sincere



We have no guarantee
What future we will get
All that we can be
Lies in our passed and present life-thread

I am on this site
To seek my future wife
It feels like an unknown flight
Through the secrets of our life

How long can I go on ?
In this life`s episode
Someday , will I be the ONE
To WIN YOUR HEART , with the UNLOCK CODE ???

Eric - (C) - copyright July 2013

Ladies do not worry ...
This poem will not lock any files on your computer ...
And I will not ask for your heart as a ransom ...

Or .........

I can hear this song in the distance -
- the captain of her heart by Double -

Hi Mikaela ,

Thank you that for liking the poem and for your nice words.Yes ,I am the author of it.
I never copy or use other people's work to re - post on the internet or to make public.

In fact this is already my 4th poem , that I have put on here.Some years ago I placed 2 on here.

One was in a temporary folder , that has been removed.And the other I added to a reply to someone.
Some weeks ago , I added it again to a reply to someone here.

But I may post it as a separate post.

Several times people have advised me to "officially register them " for copyright.I did had a look on how to do that.

Will check what the right steps are.

As you have noticed , at the end I did put my name [Eric] [ c ] and the date/month/year , when I wrote it.

Now I also have added the word " copyright "

How are you today ? I wish you a good spirit and a positive peace of mind.

Take care

Eric

Hello Valeriya ,

I am surely delighted that you like the poem.It is now almost 4 years ago that I wrote it.

But since there is this "WannaCry" virus going around today , I thought , hey , why not combine the actual with the wishful thinking ?

Also thank you for your beautiful photo.I have already said it : Slavic women are my adrenaline.

Take care and good luck.

PS - do you know the song : Wishful Thinking from China Crisis ? It's one of my favourites ....

Mikaela ,

Yes I hope that I can write more.But to write something I must have that "drive (urge)".

And if it must be a romantic poem , it is Always harder to write.
The reason is that many poems have already been written about love and romance.

And I also want to tell a "story" with the words.So all this makes it a (small?) challenge.

But in the mean time you may listen to this romantic salsa song.You may already know that I like to listen to (all types of) music.

And that dancing is an unbreakable part of my daily life.I do like to dance latin dance - salsa , merengue , bachata .

The title of this song is - Thinking of you , you will remember me ? by Los Satelites

The Spanish title : Pensando En Ti Tu Me Recordaras - Los Satélites

It's just such a beautiful song to dance ...

Thank you for all the kind words ...... 

Eric

Hi Vera ,

What a pity that you cannot dance salsa.But still I hope that you could sway a little at the salsa parties.
Latin dance music is not only from/for the Carribean.

In South America , in all these countries they also dance and listen to salsa and merengue.Even in Brazil they know the salsa.

Also in Mexico - Nicaragua - Honduras.

Yes I know the Dominican Republic but I never visited it.
I must admit , that you need a little bit of practice to dance the salsa.

But when you know the basic you can dance the whole evening.There are differences with the salsa and the merengue,

The salsa in counting your steps is : 1, 2, 3 - 4 is a pause ; 5, 6, 7, - 8 is a pause .

With the merengue it is : 1,2 - 3,4 - 5,6 - 7,8.There are no pauses in between.
So because all steps from 1 till 8 are the same , we only count 1,2 in the merengue dance.

For 5 1/2 years non-stop , I was with the Latin dance school.I have danced with absolute beginners and the more advanced classes.

`


Here in Holland , there are also not enough men , who want to learn the salsa.So , I was 1 of the men , to fill in this shortage.

After my daily work , I would rush home , shower/refresh and then go to the dancing school.No time for dinner , because sometimes the lesson would start at 18:30 PM.

For 7 days a week I was dancing sometimes 5 or 7 lessons.One lesson was 75 minutes.I could only have dinner after the last lesson , that I had to dance (21:30 or later 23:00).

And then the next morning go to work again.But work was getting more demanding , and so I had to take a time-out from the dancing school.

Now it's a couple of years that I have taken a time-out.
But I still think that I should be able to teach you the salsa.If you were not living so far away.

There is 1 dance style , that I did not mention.And that is the Zouk dance.Also very famous in the Carribean and in all the Spanish speaking countries.

Listen to this famous band from Guadaloupe (is a French sort of colony).The band's name is Les Aiglons.
They have made some really great dancing songs , and they are also my favourites.

Yo Vouai Ou - les_Aiglons - is just a fantastic song to dance.When you hear that melody can you sit still ??
I can not !!

Maybe they did play their songs in the hotel were you stayed.

One of the most famous Zouk songs is the Lambada.I'm sure you know that melody ...

One more example , this song is a bachata : La Pared - Joe Veras .

I want to make it clear that I am not only on Latin dance or pop/disco.

I also have records of a Russian men choir , I have Kossac music and I also have some records from Iwan Rebroff.

The very famous singer - he was well known here in the West in the time of the Cold War.
So , I did invest to learn about some Russian culture.

Some of these records I bought myself.Others were given to me.I still have all of them ...

Maybe a little long my reply , but now you may know a little more about Latin dance.

Ok one last example - this one is a merengue : Celosa - la Makina ...

Now you can practice a little ...?

Well I can only agree with you.When you don't have the time or the conditions to practice , it will not help.

There were women at the dancing school , who never did practice at home.We are only talking about the basic steps.

Not to dance with a partner , yet.

And they surely got into problems , because with every new block of lessons , the tempo would go up.
And there were women , who were not practicing the correct procedure , to bend the leg.

And to straighten the other leg.This also was causing problems in the dance.

I am not saying that it is easy to learn the basics right.Only with much practice , will you get a good result.

But maybe one day you will start with it ... ?

Well I did put that in my profile.But not really to search for.As you may have noticed , I did not write or send letters , to women.

For almost 2 years I believe

It is just for 2 days that I am a Gold member again.So , no need to be upset ...

But maybe you are ???

I now can reply/answer all the letters which I have received over the past years!

Just a question though ...

You suddenly felt the urge to check out my profile ??I am here for almost 4 years or longer ?? Or you did not notice me all this time .....

Olga ,

Just to make it clear.When you are a standard member , the men cannot write or send letters to the women...

We can receive letters from the ladies , but we cannot read them.

For 4 years I guess , the women's age range is in my profile.

You should have checked it much , much SOONER ...

Olga ,

I'm still waiting on a comment from you.Since you have criticized , judged and convicted me , ALL IN 1 GO , I think that I have the right to defend MYSELF !

And this without knowing the REAL FACTS ...

But first off , in my family and in my circle of friends ,it is considered a matter of politeness and of respect for your opponent , to approach him/her with an open visor.

So WITH YOUR COMMENT , PLEASE ADD AN UNMASKED PHOTO OF YOUR FACE.

And don't come with the excuse that you already have a relation(ship).Then I have some more questions for YOU ...

Why then are YOU still on HERE ??

Is it because a] YOU have TOO MUCH FREE TIME ???
Or is it b] YOU are getting BORED WITH YOURSELF ???

Or is it c] and God forbid that this is the case , YOU are secretely checking on the profiles of other MEN ??

In that case I will PRAY FOR YOUR HUSBAND/FRIEND /FIANCE .

We all know and have witnessed all the disrespect , that is going on , on social media or on the internet , these days.

`


People posting disrespectful , unfounded and untrue messages.
And using a fake ID or hide behind their ANONYMITY ...

How brave they are ...

So , if YOU are that STRONG WOMAN ......(show your face without the sunglasses)

But I think that I already know , WHAT TO EXPECT ...

SO SAD .....

Вот и наглядный пример. Воспитание воспитанием, в обычной жизни можно быть белым пушистым и мудрым. А затронь что то неудобное или попадет человек в критическую ситуацию, и весь менталитет налицо. Атака лучший способ защиты.

Во-первых, я задала вам вопрос без хамства и грубости,вопрос был с удивлением. Да и сейчас удивляюсь,как дедушка ищет для себя внучку.
Во-вторых ,я здесь- на форуме, но не на сайте знакомств,это разные вещи.
В- третьих,кто вы такой, чтобы требовать моё лицо? Вам я ничего не должна.
П.С не ожидала такой реакции и бурления на наивный вопрос.

Вот поэтому и нужно время для узнавания, даже просто тогда, когда речь идет не о совместной жизни, а о том, чтобы просто уважать человека и поддерживать дружеское общение, что реальное, что виртуальное. Ничего провоцировать специально нет необходимости ) Достаточно просто проходить через разные ситуации и внимательно смотреть на проявления в них. По данной конкретной ситуации отдельно говорить ничего не буду, чтобы не переходить на личности и остаться в русле относительно общих рассуждений. Разве что что могу сказать, что я в шоке. Хотя слово "шок", пожалуй, слишком сильное для обозначения реакциии на поведение чужого, по сути, человека. А вообще, очень наглядная ситуация. Я бы даже сказала, что из многих свежих историй на форуме этот неожиданный coming out один из самых "крутых" и поучительных в плане жизненного опыта.

Я тоже в шоке, Белла. Сначала так и написала потом стерла. Думала что это слишком резко.
А еще хотела добавить что иногда провокация позволяет быстрее выявить чем долгие наблюдения. Но это конечно нечестно и некрасиво и непорядочно, провоцировать намеренно. Я бы не хотела чтобы меня кто то так проверял.

I honestly must disapprove with you.You see if it was just a question , I would have given you a different answer.

But it was not just some question !!When you put the Pray - emoticon at the end , that is where you judged and took the brutality to convict me.

This changed the whole intent of your post ...

I ask YOU , with WHAT RIGHT(S) do you Judge and convict me!
Maybe you haven't noticed it , but the past months I was most of the time on this forum.

Since I registered on here , MOST OF THE TIME I WAS A STANDARD CLIENT.

If you don't know , what a standard member here can or cannot do , I will be happy to spell it out for you.
I can put any age range in my profile.
And what sort of business is that to you ??

Since I was/am not active on the dating site , for some years , your post and your conviction of my person , was highly inappropriate.

Olga ,

No I have something better.It's such good weather now here , I think that I will go sit in my backyard with cool drink.It will stay warm till very late , so nothing better than to enjoy the nice weather.

My advice to you , don't get too upset.It's bad for your health.

But just to refresh your memory : remember it was you , who started this dialogue with me ?Right ...?

And now you are playing the innocent victim ??While your posts were not so innocent.But that aside.

As far as I can remember I never had any dialogue or contact with you , until now.Which you started.
I also remember from the past , that other women here , also had issues like these with you.

So it seems to me , that you are making some sort of habit of it.Which of course is your full right.

But I have something which puzzles me , and I hope that you can clear it up.Well you said that you checked out my profile - remember your words not mine .

`


But .... the photo from your avatar (yes the one with the sunglasses) is not showing up in the list .... ???
I see many women in the list , who did look at my profile and some I recognize.
But you are absent.That is rather strange or not ?

I checked the list back until the 15th of April.But nope no sign of your photo.

I also checked the photos from the women in that list , but none of them show any resemblance with the photo from your avatar.
Also in this period there are no women from 35 years ,who had a look at my profile.Again very strange , since that is the age that you post beside your avatar.

Now then how did you checked my profile ??Well I can think of 3 possibilities.

1 ] you have the option or possibility to use the invisible mode - possible but not likely

2 ] you have a secret account that you use to check on the men's profile - possible and likely

3 ] you asked a friend to look at my profile - again possible and also likely

Anyway this proves , without any doubt , that my statement , about you secretly checking other men's profile was correct.

If you want to explain to me , how you really did it , I will be happy to hear it.

Olga I have no problems with you , so I will wish you all the best.You know there is this saying - he who does good will receive good.

And I must tell you , until now , for me personally it was Always like that.

I hope that your walk on your path of life , will be good , safe and without any danger.

This is not to be sarcastic because I am not that type of person.I believe that we have said all that we wanted to say.

ALL THE BEST ...I wish you well ...

Eric

No I did not know that.As I was not active on the dating site for all these years.

In the most part only on the help forum.But I thought that the helpforum and the dating site were 1 unit.

Thank you for clearing this up.
I guess that I need an apology to Olga now on this ...
