Singing Pig

Dear oh dear!

You just have to use your intuition - I've had men come on to me, women come on to me, dogs humping my leg. You have to know when to get out of a situation (especially if it's a dog on your leg). It's not particularly any different in property than in any other business.

IMHO blokes who are that forward, that early - if there was no provocation - don't change their spots. Be careful, be kind, take someone else with you to your next meeting, don't be flattered by the attention, if you don't feel comfortable with him, don't work with him. It won't be worth it.

But most are not like that, men are people too.

hi WMB,

welcome to SP it is always good to see some more girlies i hope you are going to stay around for a long time

I totally agree with lovely, you are not off to a very good start!

I would be inclined to dump him............and get somebody else, that also means business, if he is like that at the start then he is only going to get worse.

My last joint venture was with a guy from this board and he was so nice and respectful I spoke to his partner and he spoke to mine and we all got on and he was a pleasure to deal with. 

The lady that i am doing a JV with at the moment also from this board had a similar problem to yourself on her last project, only with the builder, he became very difficult and in the end she had to get rid of him half way through the project.  Which as you can imagine caused her loss of time and money and a lot of inconvenience.

If you are doing a JV with this guy you wont be able to sack him, and i can see it making your life a misery, and also costing you a lot of money if he starts acting up and throwing his teddy (a thing some rejected men are very good at).

The thing you should be aiming for in a JV  is not only help with funds but also moral support and knowledge, I think you need to ask yourself if you are going to get this in its purest form from this guy. 

On my joint venture at the moment we are at the setting up stage which involves a lot of contact with my JV partner we often phone each other up to 4/5 times a day and very early in the morning and late at night because it is necessary.  Ask yourself if you phoned this guy up at 9-10 at night is he going to believe it is about busines or think you ........couldn't sleep without hearing the sound of his voice..........it sounds daft .........but there are some daft blokes out there with this kinda mindset i am sorry to say.

oh and lovely how do you get so much attention from so many people ........you must be using the right perfume, what is it called?  I need to go and buy a very large bottle
