Posted: 2/14/2007 2:27:34 PM | | I think they've got waaayyy too much time on their hands and a whole buncha issues. I'd be glad that person was way far away in computer land. So far I haven't gotten anything like that in particular, but I've had a few strange rangers contact me in the past. It's a "good thing" to start with something simple and in an extremely safe place, and that someone who cares about you know everything: where, when, who, approximately how long. | |

Posted: 2/14/2007 2:52:41 PM | You should've told her Starbucks is not cheap.....LOL!
But seriously she sounds like someone who has made rude comments and had guys respond to her.....Heck of a way to get attention!  
Anyway,If she sends you any more messages just delete or if you'd like you could return the favor and see how she likes being talked down to like that,  | |

Posted: 2/15/2007 9:28:50 AM | When I first put my profile and photo on POF, I got a nasty email from a man living near me because he did not like my photograph. I very professionally replied back to him....well, actually he said I gave him a tongue lashing, which, in his own words, he deserved. He apologized to me, I accepted the apology and hopefully he won't do that to someone else or if he does, hopefully they will nit pick his profile and give him back another dose of his own medicine. If you don't like what you see or read, move on. Don't waste my time or your telling me what you don't like because I either can't change, don't want to change it, won't change it or will change it and then say nananananaNA!

That was a freebie for ya, OP. You didn't have to spend for coffee in order to determine she's a wacko!
TOO FUNNY.. I like coffee for a first meeting so I don't have to waste time sitting with an idiot through a whole meal. Your time is worth more than $2.00, no matter who's pocket it is coming out of. I like coffee meetings because when I meet someone for coffee, I know if someone is a waste of time when he has to choose where to sit. I know he is going to be a control freak. That test hasn't been wrong yet. If someone doesn't look at you when you are talking, don't even finish your coffee.... get out of there as fast as you can. | |

When I get these messages, I toast them with my cup of coffee, smile and say "Narrow escape". Hope it's the only nastygram you get...Good luck!

Posted: 2/25/2007 5:46:05 AM | I prefer coffee for first dates too. There is no pressure. If it doesn't work out, you're just out the cost of a cup of coffee. If sparks fly, you can always go do something else.
Re: the Nasty grams
I get them too. I recently received one who commented that he was liking my profile until he read that I don't want pot smokers. Why waste your time emailing me about that? If my profile suggests to you that we won't be right for eachother, hit the back button and keep searching. | |

until I got to the line where you tell everyone you are a coffee dater.
I'd be only too please to be invited out for coffee, to just be with a women. It would make my day ! Instant coffee or,,, who cares. just providing it was fun ! | |

Posted: 2/25/2007 6:31:38 AM | | I don't get the point of responding negatively to a profile. If you don't like what you see, no need to say anything. And I think coffee dates are fine first meetings. Not a lot of pressure on either party. | |

Posted: 2/25/2007 6:39:42 AM | She is a "MANHATER" and for some reason.....she feels she has this right. Go figure!!! She will find a way of justifying it some how!!! Just laugh it off!!! She is a WACKO!!! and the sad part is some poor guy is gonna pay the consequences for it. | |

Posted: 2/26/2007 8:18:07 AM | Maybe she was just a coffee hater or a tea totaller!!!
Personally, I think she was just looking for flaws to convince herself on why she couldn't contact you. Once she found one, she let you know what it was. Either that or she expected you to email back that .. ""That's not always the way you do it, sometimes I do this, sometimes I do that... What a head case!!!
I wonder what she would have said if you put hot chocolate or ice cream cone on your profile... I mean coffee is nice.. but hot chocolate is so sweet and steamie yummie cozy..
I would invite her for an ice cream cone just for fun.. just to see if that would really set her off ... you know... the thought of her licking a way on an ice cream cone in front of someone...
and if she did like the idea...at the very least it would temporarily shut the ice princess up!!! | |

Posted: 2/26/2007 5:58:57 PM | | I guess it's people who doesn't get any emails, nobody likes them and as they have nothing to do, they decide it's fun to bother other users. Don't pay attention to that and good luck with your real dates!!!. | |

Posted: 2/26/2007 6:08:15 PM | Obviously she spent her time reading your posts in the forums which explains the verbose statement. As far as the coffee statement she is likely one of those who feels that a first meet qualifies as a date. A line of reasoning that I have failed to comprehend.
Yeah I have received hate mail myself. For me it has normally been for what I post on the forums. This kind of mail is always good for a chuckle.
My suggestion. Save it for those times where you need a lift and go back and laugh at it again.
Adel187 now that sound like something I would do LOL | |

Please do yourself the favour and NEVER respond to these types of emails.
This is a cry for attention and certainly not the right kind. Perhaps at some point she will seek some help. Sounds as if she may have some issues with depression or a personality disorder.
Best left alone.
And don't take it personally.

Posted: 2/26/2007 10:17:24 PM | | It is perhaps a good thing she showed you her true nature before you might have become interested. Personally, I've never received anything remotely insulting on this site. Rather, if anything, a lack of response has been the most frequent experience that in some cases seemed impolite. I agree with the most previous post - ignore and do not respond to folks like this - it just encourages them to get a further rise out of you or others. Good luck in your search! God bless. | |
