Anniz, you are an attractive lady. Funny how most people think blonde when you say Swedish. Many of the Swedes in my family have auburn hair like yours…

Why you’re having trouble finding the man of your dreams is anyone’s guess.

You don’t bury your ex’s out in the back do you?

**Danielinthewolvesden** , about the wolfe,  
it was alreaddy there when I got the page,  
some things was alreaddy there to do it easyer,  
I have changed it now to my dog.  
But maybe they thought the wolf suited me,  
hungry like a wolfe…😉  
**handy** , yes I have legs.  
Why do you ask that?  
**Feynn** , no I haven’t bury one, yet…😉  
Well, I’ll tell you the reson I’ve been single  
for a long time.  
Since some years back I’ve having very much  
back pain and going through 3 big back operations,  
got addicted to morphin medicine,  
that I’ve succefully quitted since about 1 year ago.  
And now finally it seems like my back is becoming better  
and better.  
So I have not been able to go out and meet my dream guy  
since a long time.  
I’m still not totally well,  
but much bettter.  
It’s a very long story so I’m just telling it  
like this for now.  
Belive me when I say I’ve having some really bad  
and suffering years behind me.  
But, they are behind me now and I feel positive  
and hopefull about the future.  
It feels like coming back to life,  
if that makes any sense.

Ok well I am not perfect. I doubt people dream about me except after a night of beer and Beans.  
Ok, maybe I am not the stuff nightmares cast in the lead role. But I am sure I could handle a bit part.

I am though, kind, Tolerant, and fun.  
I work hard, I like to play hard… enjoy life at any pace.  
Besides that I am Stubborn!! you should at least admire THAT trait. 😉

Awwwww, you sound like a great person Osip.  
Someone that enjoy life, that’a a BIG qualification.  
And to be stubborn can be good sometimes.🙂  
So, you’re single and looking too?  
Don’t you agree it’s very boring sometimes?  
It’s to pity I live so far away.

Yes, far, but I transcend time and space…

I wondered about your legs Anniz cause I can’t see them in the picture 🙂

Don’t you know that guys, um… (How can I put this without getting slapped? I guess there isn’t a way. Oh, well.) guys get an instant and semi-permanent erection when they hear a Swedish/Norwegian/Finnish/Danish/Icelandic accent? Get it back, girl!

_Ahem_

If you guys really wanted to impress Anniz, why don’t you drop out of the “most stubborn person” thread? You know, like one intelligent, sensitive, oh-so-single poster did. The one who cited Anniz as the poster he hoped would win (not an easy thing to do, since the hotties Welfy and Silver Fire are still in the running).

Hi, Anniz!

Well, if he’s in your dreams it means he’s not real. You want my advice? (that’s rhetorical)

Don’t bother - us guys are like fairytale Princes in reverse. We’re all dashing and charming and cool and sensitive and considerate and nice and friendly. Until you kiss them - it’s then they turn into frogs.

Stay single. It’s easier.

**pipefitter** , you have to hurry,  
because I can’t wait so long no more…😉  
**astrangefish** , you look bloody good in your picture,  
so if you ever come to Sweden, let me now, okey.🙂

So you mean I should stop kissing…  
no, I don’t think so,  
I’ll keep trying.🙂  
**Whammo** , well I guess it’s you who have the head,  
I see in your picture that you collect them…

If I would like **some**?  
No, I want **plenty** …😉
