Have you ever backed the wrong horse?

Question

All ANY of us can go on is our experience of a person.

Someone else may have an entirely different experience of that person.

It's the difference in those experiences which is crucial and that is MY concern tonight.

Answer 1

Once when I wasn't paying enough attention to detail... Such is life and we learn and move on. It's better taking a chance and getting it wrong then never knowing...

Answer 2

Yes, but be safe in the knowledge its because you are a nice person and you thought you saw good in someone.  Nowt to be ashamed of x

Answer 3

I'm not happy about the fact that someone who is not here to defend himself is being accused of all sorts, without a shred of evidence as far as I'm concerned.  Who are the women who he has 'creeped out'?  Why don't they say something?

Answer 4

Yep, Im not he first and I certainly wont be the last person to do so.  Thats life.

Answer 5

nope, dont get behind horses

Answer 6

Snizz, I have given him all day to respond to these issues on facebook - what did he do? delete his profile/ close his account maintaining he did nothing wrong even when faced with facts from others offended by his actions.

Answer 7

I never gamble......Always do your research.....

Answer 8

can I just take snizz's $5. But Snizz could you makes that £5 please instead?

Answer 9

Ok I have something to say and I don't mean to hijack your question to do so...

but I really wish he were here defending himself.

You can't just leave and leave your fate to the mob!

Surely he has something to say about this and I would like to hear his side!!!

rant over, carry on :)

OMG someone actually agrees with me!!! I love you guys!!! Here's your $5 each !!! x*x

God I'm running out of money!!!

Cranberry that's what I mean, you just don't run away!! You stay and fight the good fight!!!

Answer 10

nah I'm always right

Answer 11

I agree with Snizz aswell..

Answer 12

This appears to be a  'loaded'  question, if it means what I think it means, not on here I don't think I have.

Edit.

After the emails that I have had and read this link, perhaps I have indeed   'backed the wrong horse'!

Answer 15

no idea

Answer 16

i dont gamble at all.never have.usually with me its a dead cert.

Answer 17

How the heck is anybody supposed to know on here who is who and what they are saying privately via email.

It`s virtually impossible.

I wouldn`t worry.

And yes, my horse never wins the Grand National. :)

Answer 18

I always thought it a little weird that a guy would keep choosing girly avatars. But, I'm not here all the time and don't know what all the fuss is about. When I asked a question about this earlier today, all I got were bullsh*t responses. So to h**l with it.

Answer 19

yeah..every time i look over SIMM 101's shoulder in the bookies

this sounds serious you should step back a little see why you have been duped and learn what you can from it

Answer 20

I lost $50 in the Belmont Stakes last month, Had Big Brown for the win and the triple crown, and he finished last.

Answer 21

Yep, most of us do at some point, but you live and learn.

Answer 22

everyones agreeing with snizz so count

me in. i want my 5 bucks

Answer 23

i agree with snizz x

Answer 24

nope I don't go to the bookies... ever

Answer 25

Sure, that's why it is called 'gambling'....

Answer 26

Yeah every time I walk in the bookies.

Answer 27

Many more times than the right one. I have backed many wrong teams too. Often many times on the same day.

Sometimes I have backed the right horse in the wrong race or the wrong day.

If you could be right 80 % of the time, gambling would cease to exist, as no one would cover your action.

Answer 28

yes, and the wrong man too sometimes!
