Dating/ Relationship PH forum?

[timmy30]

Just a thought given that from time to time people seem to feel the need to tap the 'hive mind' of PH for advice on relationship problems/ dating/ sympathy in hard times, was just thinking maybe a nice addition to PH would be such a forum?

How does one go about suggesting such a thing to the equivalent of God in this particular universe of PH?

(Provided of course that it didn't develop into some kind of goolish peep show where evil dooers could cause havoc by calling in there to create emotional mayhem)

Do you want a seperate dating service on PH's or a seperate forum for relationship advice?

If the former then I agree with you, if the latter then I think P&P is the best place for it.

I'm not sure you'll get away with that (as this is a motoring site, and we've already for a forum for non-motoring issues). Having more would surely dilute the automotive focus?

You'll be wanting a new for sale/wanted sections next.
I can just see it:

"Wanted: Sussex based, stunningly attractive, > 6 ft, 30yr old Ruby player to fill spare seat in Chimaera" etc etc.

I still think we should all register on there (Handbag.com that is) and start loads of threads about cars...

Given the ratio of male to female PHers is probably about 5:1 and the response that new female members get on here I would think a dating forum is a very good idea!

[vixpy1]

at one point, the male/female ratio was about 95/1 so thats an improvement!

Must resist must resist...

A nice addition? A nice fing addition, are you taking the p1ss? One piece of advice, rather than sorting your relationships out online, why not try that new novel approach of erm meeting girls for real, or boys (inanimate objects too, if thats your bag).

Did the schools start removing testicles in the last few years?

As for Goolish peepshow, bring it on if i get the chance to rip the p1ss out of morose, Nirvana, Pint staring teenagers.

Er Rich, take some herbal tea mate and calm down, actually if you paused to engage frontal lobes before rant you might note that what I am suggesting is the idea that if people must feel the urge to make such postings they do so into a specific area of the site.

Like you I find it a bit odd that people keep making these posts but people do and so there is obviously a need out there. Chill.

I think Rich would make a great agony aunt for this new forum.

Quite right, my suggestio would be just to call the forum something appropriate.

:-) dont you start..

I saw this thread as a big hook with a big worm on it, as if it had been a trap laid just for me.

Teenagers note: Laid as in set not sex (the stuff you dream about, and surf for)

He's got my vote! I think it's a bad idea personally, much as I enjoy reading about the tedious woes of navel-gazers I don't think a whole forum would be a sensible use of bandwidth.
