All this in one day. I feel priviledged, although I think Dweller does have a point.
I'm greatful to all those who responded, but can't help questioning how this could have so easily been subject to abuse and how a great many weirdos could so easily gain access to online buddies. I'm new to the whole concept of using forums but can already see how it could be open to abuse.
Kinda hypocritical really since I recieved so many online buddies through this post. There are so many nice people here in QL (and some not so nice!), that I think people should geniunely be careful of who they actually disclose personal information to or meet with and if they do meet someone, make it a group meet and in a public location! You really can't tell if they're going to turn out all stalkery.
hmmmmm interesting observation but sad to say i have yet to meet as i hardly get time to attend those social outings as most are arranged on weekend and i dont get off on weekends
hehehehee...not offended at all QT, why would i? its just that..just that..i woke up and check my pending buddylist request and was checking (the long list ) and did not see your name there to accept....
so now, you know how warm, encouraging, cheerful Qlers are?...hehehehe..expect more soon if you join other thread discussion....

I sent everyone who commented on this post a buddy invite. Only 2 didn't respond (both young women). I just guessed you (and the other) must have had lots of weirdos requesting buddy invites, that you just decline them! So I withdrew my request.
I'll send another one out now. My apologies if I offended.
Its been great getting to know you all in this post. Look forward to chatting and/or meeting up soon. I'm off to bed now as its nearly 1am here in Dubai.
I think its probably best to rent for a while and watch the markets. If many new developments go up it may push the price of villas and apartments down.
I may have to bite the bullet and pay these extortionate rent rates for a while.
I should be coming to Doha with my business partners within the next two weeks. They'll be about 7 of us. But only 2 of us are looking to stay in Doha as residents soon. I'll keep you all posted!
Thanks for the support everyone. It's really appreciated.
well its like Ym and msn you know ppl and you add them
same here you cant add all 26000+ members but the one you feel like adding them and want to know more about u will add. or if some one is impressed with u and ur comments they will add you. choice is urs.
nice...just check your profile...now you got yourself what 5 on your buddylist......congrats to you...some don't get this kind of attention being new...

I should be flying out to Doha (from Dubai) next week for a couple of days to look for a warehouse. I'll sent you all messages in case anyone wants to meet up!
Go into the person you want as your buddy, then click add them to you buddy list. The person will then be notified and then they click to approve you on not.
Either that, or go into "my friends" and see if you have anyone who wants to be your buddy, look now you may be lucky.

Its been great getting to know you all in this post. Look forward to chatting and/or meeting up soon. I'm off to bed now as its nearly 1am here in Dubai.
Thanks Guys (and dolls)
From reading some of your posts, if you've mellowed now, God/Allah help those that crossed you in your youth.
Why the change with age?
I think its probably best to rent for a while and watch the markets. If many new developments go up it may push the price of villas and apartments down.
I may have to bite the bullet and pay these extortionate rent rates for a while.
Read the previous post. She claims to be really shy. I didn't think so either!
PM is shy ??? No way ....
The Sheraton is always a good one to start with.
So expats can only buy in the pearl, is this true?
Anyone with info, please post. Are there mortgage companies out here?
And PM, we can talk about anythink you like, for example, why you're so shy...
damn...5 hours ago there was only 1 post now 200!!!!!??????????
Im the one and only
i only know the irish bar is in Sheraton ... newly open one.
for buying property i think you can buy in The Pearl, i am not an expert so cant advice any further.
I have lots of questions, things like where to buy an appartment or villa. Best and most convenient areas to live. Are there any Irish bars? lol
Good property agents. Whats the Property market like and how stable is it? Many many questions, but I should post them in the proper sections.
I will get out there first and scope out Doha, then i'll start posting all sorts of questions. Thanks for the help though!
Ok I get it now. Not up on the old IM thing.. spend too much time on Facebook! Looks like I need to get with the program:)
ask away if you have any question ...
I should be coming to Doha with my business partners within the next two weeks. They'll be about 7 of us. But only 2 of us are looking to stay in Doha as residents soon. I'll keep you all posted!
Thanks for the support everyone. It's really appreciated.

"There's nothing we can do to change the past, if it teaches you a lesson profit from it then, forget it."

I think some people have their profile blocked or restricted for friends only. (I think, not too sure as I'm new here)
If it can take a while to become a member of the social group, I think I'll apply straight away!
Thanks for the heads up Chief!
I really don't get why there's a buddy list? I DO have some and I'm REALLY pleased about that.. lol.. but what is it for?

The more the merrier.
Just follow Limas's instruction

[img_assist|nid=73057|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=|height=0]
Lima Foxtrot!
Go into the person you want as your buddy, then click add them to you buddy list. The person will then be notified and then they click to approve you on not.
Either that, or go into "my friends" and see if you have anyone who wants to be your buddy, look now you may be lucky.
