I dont know. You tell me Johnny? Am I offensive, or off-putting to the average american male?

I think it could be..
What is you posting in the Sex and Sexuality Issues?
Telling a world about you fetish or some kinky stuff you do, and he/she just not into that?
Or you post something, and she doesn't think the way you do.
I do scroll down to Forum posts, I think I can learn more about her that way.
I think that's a good idea.
But as others said, if she doesn't like me because of my forum posts, we wouldn't get along anyway.

I've found a correlation between my forum posts and profile views and emails. While I enjoy the forums for the interaction, I actively use them as advertising (in addition to my profile and email I send).

Conversely, I always do a username forum search before contacting someone whose profile I like. That has saved me from wasting time a few times where their forum posts do not match the persona in the profile.

I had it come up on one date I went on...he asked me why I had written something I posted..and if it was true (That I prefer messages that are longer and have some substance)...its true. He went on to ask "Then why did you answer my message?" I answered him honestly, that I prefer a good message, but if there's something about profile, pics or message (or some combo of the three) that catches my attention, I go with it. He seemed to be okay with that answer...and that was the end of that topic of conversation

I am realizing that there is a lot more game playing out there then I want to do. I have zero tolerence for it. the whole rules of this that and the other, I think we put up too many barriers and fronts. The forums have really opened my eyes to alot of the superficial fake shallow overgeneralizations that people want to use when they are feeling insecure, wounded, lonely, bored or mean.
Heres a pickle, get over it.

I think it does. I think someone's upset with me cause I was suspicious he might be married or involved.

Ok, he never answers my e mails hardly, texts maybe once a week seems to spend only 2 hrs with me on a Sat if I;m lucky.

If he was really interested he would contact me and be willing to make the time.

Then I don't know where he lives, he never wants to take me out in public. Sorry, something is just not right about this. And I'm suppose to apologize for my thoughts. Nope.

No...most ask what are the Forums.

Yes...for the forums opened up more opportunities to meet ppl from different places and similar interest.

Maybe...Lots of confusion when they were on the pofiles (Last 5 postings)

As for effecting my dating...nope...dating is the sh*ts no matter what lol
