Posted: 9/19/2008 9:42:14 PM | | Weeellll.. one person's normal might be having the crap knocked out of them every day.. another person's normal might be having a butler in their service. It's all relative to our own individual experiences I think. | |

Posted: 9/28/2008 3:12:59 PM | I think Normal... on a dating site... equates one who:likes long romantic walks on the beach, candle-lit dinners, who claims to be the perfect partner with perfect hair, height, weight, teeth, clothes, career, home, vehicle, manners, family, friends, pets who has never been married, goes to church every Sunday and eats all their vegetables lol.
Frankly, I find “normal” to be abnormal and slighty scary. Anyone who fits the above bill belongs in a little box covered with plastic.
Why not be a wee bit “abnormal”! Mess up your hair, show off your curves, do some bungee jumping sporting a pink wig eating a blueberry sundae, wearing stiletto boots whilst reading “A New Earth” then pick some lilacs and put them in your messy hair then join me for turkish coffee atop my camel.
Cheers

what truly is considered 'Normal' ...on a medium such as this??
To expect the unexpected?
or wait.... I know, to NOT expect anything. | |

Who defines what is normal? I am sure that my definition would meet someone else's criteria for abnormal.I think it is better to take each moment and determine if that is what you want and consider normal or acceptable-and procede accordingly. | |

Posted: 11/15/2008 9:45:40 AM | | "Normal" after being on this site for a bit now, I don't think or feel that being what most consider normal a good thing. It seems the stranger you are the better off you are on here. Honesty, integrity, personality all those normal qualities just don't seem to be the attractions on this site.........being yourself is the best policy whether on a dating site or in real life, how much it's appreciated is a whole other story. | |

after being on this site for a bit now, I don't think or feel that being what most consider normal a good thing. Perhaps what most in the pond seem to consider normal isn't such a great thing, except maybe here. (kidding fishies)
I still feel normal's relatively well defined and accepted as a good attribute in the REAL world but I think the problem you perceive comes from the very nature of this site. Basically it's a market for singles to, for lack of a better word, "sell themselves", and with so much competition in the pond, it really shouldn't come as much of a surprise that many feel a need to dress things up, or sugar coat stuff a little.
Don't get me wrong, I still feel many here, likely most here actually, are fine individuals but are just behaving as they believe has been made necessary here to acheive the desired results. That generally being "finding the one". I'd also say that the attributes you say don't seem to be the attractions on this site, just make it a bit tougher to make a good sales pitch for many, but still exist aplenty here.
Finally, I totally agree with your statement "being yourself is the best policy whether on a dating site or in real life". | |

Posted: 11/16/2008 12:00:08 AM | | What bothers me about the over exuberance of one's qualities is that it really doesn't protray the person you are trying to get to know.........so surprise I lied to get your attention but I really am not like that. What I do find on this site as well as other dating sites is the lack of respect for others........assuming that each and every person is on here for marathon dating and sexual encounters, rather than what the site was supposed to represent and that is the meeting of new people in your life. Again, that goes to the point of integrity.......... | |

Posted: 11/16/2008 9:25:01 AM | ^^ yeah, if you actually touched hands and there was sugar involved....
Normal??? What is normal anyways???? I don't think is such a thing as "normal" anymore. The world and the people are too diverse.
dd - we'll have to have a fishing event in the spring!! Then we can all do Plenty of Fishing. | |
