Dread going vs Dread to go

There are some verbs like remember and others with which is not the same to use a gerund or a verb in infinitive after them: I remembered calling him (I called him and now I remembered=I remembered having call him), and I remembered to call him (I remembered that I had to call him). But other verbs confuse me. Please help me on this a little long thread:

Do the following pairs and trios of sentences mean the same?

1.1.- I'm dreading going back to work.

1.2.- I’m dreading to go back to work

2.1.- Tim dreaded his parents finding out.

2.2.- Tim dreaded that his parents find him out. (Is this sentence correct?)

3.1.- Jason denies that Susan has (had?) stolen the money.

3.2.- Jason denies that Susan stealing the money. (Is this sentence correct?)

4.1.- The company ceased trading at 6 pm today.

4.2.- The company ceased to trade at 6 pm today.

5.1.- The town ceased to exist.

5.2.- The town ceased existing.

6.1.- I appreciate commenting this thread.

6.2.- I appreciate to comment this thread.

7.1.- She evades paying my money.

7.2.- She evades to pay my money.

Do you always have people wait so long?

8.1 I don’t mind people waiting for me.

8.2 I don’t mind that people is waiting for me.

8.3 I don’t mind being waited.

Sorry to keep you waiting so long!

9.1 I don’t mind people keeping me waiting.

9.2 I don’t mind that people is keeping waiting me.

9.3 I don’t mind being kept waiting.

And, finally, I think that following sentences mean different things. Am I right?:

I highly appreciate meeting that woman. (I met that woman and I appreciate that)

I highly appreciate to meet that woman. (I don’t meet that woman yet and I highly want to)

Thanks a lot in advance,
