    Default Finding a partner

    So I know its a bit of a odd subject, but, I am planning to spend my future in Spain. So I would like to know, what are the chances of finding a partner in Spain, im a single guy, fairly good looking...very good looking (ahh now my head is the right size ) just joking lol....Im pretty sure language will prove some what of a challenge but I am coming to Spain all by my lonesome so it still is good to know.

    I was going to say your chances of finding a partner are limited by the size of your head but thought better of it lol It may be taken the wrong way.


    Unless you have a list of must haves and expectations off the scale of sensible realistic possiblities then you should be okay.

    There are plenty of places to meet people and then there is always the www I posted a bit about it on the 'Dating in Spain' section.

    Oh and don't try to hard looking desperate aint a good look

    Now i understand where I have gone wrong lol.
    Yeah its just a matter of interest, im not planning on finding someone as I as many have a long and boring story to tell about my relationship. So a bachelors life is looking great for a little while....

    I dont have very high expectations other than looks,personality,height,weight,education,lifestyl e,habbits,outlooks,friends,cleanliness,self image oh and did I mention looks lol

    Ah now there is a problem ! hope you don't tell new ladies in your life how misunderstood you were and all that rubbish lol


    Finish with one relationship completely before you start another is sound advice for you and any prospective new partner. Take your time enjoy life and a bit of you time, love will come your way she may NOT be what you have on your mental list though

    Smile Finding a partner...

    OK, first you donīt say how old you are... itīs a whole different story depending on your age, AND WHERE you live. Itīs not the same living in Madrid than in a smaller town, or the North vs the South.
    What kind of hobbies do you have? are you into the Arts or are more a Sports addict? So many factors can determine if you find someone, AND where! Are you working or retired?.... Once you ask yourself all these things, then place yourself in the right atmosphere...join a Gym! or join an Art club...or hang out on the beach...
    AND DONīT TELL A PROMISING CANDIDATE ALL ABOUT YOUR LAST RELATIONSHIP! THAT IS A DOWNNER AND REFLECTS YOU ARE STILL LIVING IN THE PAST! SHOW INTEREST IN THE OTHER PERSON BY ASKING ABOUT HER LIFE (NOT PASSED RELATIONSHIPS) BUT REGARDING HER PARENTS, SIBLINGS, PLACES SHEīS BEEN, ETC. By your comments, I gather you are a man.
    Take care, Madeinseville

    Val! I love your sense of humour (double entendre). As far as I am aware the senoritas are not really interested in anyone outside their own circles; lifestyle and culture. I must admit that as an important part of any relationship is shared background and cultural identity such a relationship could be challenging.
    The good news is; there's plenty who share much of your identity too; same nationality etc. So it's the usual sales story: "The harder you work the luckier you get." Do put yourself around.
    Otherwise remember the other maxim: "Why get married and make one woman unhappy when you can stay single and make them all happy?"
