Ive learnt that Canada only has 10 Provinces according to the Canada forums list.

Maybe there are no single people in the Yukon, Northwest Territories or Nunavut.

The main thing I've learned is that I was right in my assumption all along. For the most part, people are just completely bizarre.

After reading the Current Events and Politics forums I learned that some people believe that every major news event of the last 100 years actually had some kind of deep conspiracy behind it and nothing actually happened as were told by the news.

I have learned that on P.OF :

There are some VERY nice women.

There are some Jerkettes.

There are women who I met that we mutually agreed that "friends forever "was the way to go.

There are some Great women.

Last few were REALLY shallow.

The right combination (Her&Me) is out there some where --NOT necessarily on P.OF.

I have learned from P.O.F. that:

I have made friends from here.

There are some great guys here!

There are some great girls here too!! *lol*

Finding someone for a life partner is, in an of itself, a job. *chuckle*

That I am smiling and laughing a lot more after reading the forums and my e-mail. Can't beat this one yet!! *grins*

I've also learned that there can be the odd rotten fishie in the pond and we just need to keep turfing them out with the trash. <--This is for all those guys who think that because I am up late it means that I am interested in some kind of sexual liason...FORGET IT BUDDY. Not happening.

All in all, a wonderful experience so far and I've recommended the site to a few of my single friends. *smiles*

As Always,
NPY

I've learned:

You can meet people but you may not click. (I've only met two people through here. There are people here I know)

I'm beginning to learn that in the city (from small town NL) you really have to play the game. Oh, and to be famous all you have to do is start a blog. BLOG??? EMO??? I've learned so much.

Anyway, cheers to POFer's I've been to some of the POF partys here and had a wicked time.

I learned what a fascinating educational conduit this site can be (read above - lol)
Carrie it's sunday, NOW!!



I've learned:

To use the keyboard quicker.
To highlight text for my posts.
To edit my posts (frequently)
To piss people off in the forums.
To piss people off, in general.
To be humble.

And most importantly... I learned how to give great hugs!!!

I'm still working on ------>

I started returning daily instead of weekly or monthly and noticed this world is changing constantly. Family traditions and customs that I grew up with, are becoming a thing of the past. I feel like I am in a debate period, of whether I should hope for my exact specific type of woman/partner or if I should change some standards and expctations to accomodate someone's interest. I'm more confused than anything now.

that just cause you're in your 50's does not mean you're grown up.

That's not a learning experience. Anyone making that claim is like someone saying "I like to breathe air." Have you ever read a profile that says "I'm looking for a liar to treat me like the no-esteemed piece of human flotsam that I am?"

I've learned that despite my low opinion of humanity in general, for every person who might prove an exception to the rule, there are always two more who are a peg or twelve below even my lowest expectations.

I learned that when someone doesnt like what you post on the forums -they can erase it
and I learned there is alot of nice people here in the forums

I learned that just because someone doesnt like your picture it doesnt make them
shallow and I learned that there is someone for everyone if look long enough

I learned that just because someone is posing half naked- they can still post must not be looking for sex and I learned that you should never say you like sex-

I learned they just because they have a picture posted on Pof doesnt mean it has to look like them and I learned someone`s inner beauty can never be seen in a picture

I learned a lot of people on Pof like to read delete !and I learned some actually do respond and become friends

<--- I learned not everyone likes my friend licker and I learned some do



God Bless all the little fishes

I've learned that there are a lot of shallow people in this pond. Before I get raked over the coals for that comment I must add that I have been pleasantly pleased when meeting someone for the first time. One man, in whom I had a lukewarm interest, turned out to be a very good friend. If I hadn't taken the chance and looked past my misgivings, we wouldn't be friends today.

To Paul W1967. Waiting for someone else to take that first step isn't always a good thing, especially since they may be doing the same thing - waiting for you to contact them. Come on...take a chance!

Wishing you luck in the pond.

I learned that some women shave the hair off their upper lip, and it grows back all needle-like, so when you kiss them, it really hurts in an annoying way
