WTF is up with women using being safeonline as an excuse to play games ?

Well Eddie, I was LJKPRINCESS but after reading these forums I felt the need to change my user name because I have learned that some men lable us as high-maintenance if we use the names princess, queen and so on. I decided to pick a name that describes what I truely am ~UNIQUE~, I am a one of a kind! Also would like to say that I was not responding so much to the kissing as to the "meeting me for 2 hours" and wanting me to move in with him. What is up with that? No teeth part was honest though. I just thought that maybe this other woman may have dated the same guy. Thought it was funny because she was describing my situation. Just had to add to this thread.

Unique, I can understand the name change.

When I clicked to post your name came up as the LJKPRINCESS but your post said ~UNIQUE~, that's all I was reacting too.

Sure would be nice if everyone took kissing lessons before dating!

I meant blowing you off in regards to actually physically meeting as was part of the original question. They most likely would be happy to keep cyber chatting / romance going for years...

Ok...
But, the problem is you don't know this until after you have wasted some time , and if this happens often , it really is not good.
The answer :
If women are not able to meet people they should click on talk/email .

You Know those stats are alarming and I don't see the reasoning you have to publish anything beyong our own borders. We as Canadians Can do that too. However those stats scare the proverbial crap out of everyone and they don't bare a place in "this" Forum. It's simply overstated.

I think you have experienced what most women find out on here nightly!!! Some men have played me, dangling me and never intend to meet, others have met and I think they are nothing like pic, bad breath or other disgusting things, or plain boring, and others just want to meet after 10 mins of emailing and are obviously after one thing, that they WONT get coz Im on here for long term. If you dont want to meet players or people who want to email forever click on longterm, they tend to be the serious about dating ones. I think it proves men and women are the same species after all, but everyone is different, dont give up after a couple of bad experiences. xx

Women needing to be save online versus women with traditional values.

Get to know someone well enough before meeting them, this could take days, weeks or months depending on the people, but ALWAYS get to know someone before arranging any type of meet.

I don't agree with the coffee meets, simply because what you can learn about someone in an hour over a coffee, can quite as easily be achieved online or on the phone/cam/whatever


I could not disagree more!! there are some things you can only discover IN PERSON. As far as I am concerned you don't "know" someone at all until you meet them. Prior to that, you have gotten to know words on a computer screen. You don't know the person.

I sat and read everything that people are saying here, I for 1 have to say I met a few men on here even an abusive 1, I even reported him for fear he will do the same to another women and he is still on here. So yes being safe online is not a far off thing to comprehend. I am safer now then I ever was and if a man won't except that then he is 1 of the abusers in my mind. If they really like a women they will give it time to grow, if they are just in it for a quick jump in the sack or out to use a women in anyway they will move on fast. So yes women should be safe and slow on online dateing it will weed out the worst. A true man who likes you will wait.

I wouldn't say that men are more likely to be attacked, but that women are far less likely to be assaulted/attacked by a stranger than by somebody they know and trust.

What you in such a big hurry to meet ?? Have had men want to meet at rivers . Now how dumb is that ? I was left bruised once .I won't meet in any way that would put me in danger again. I find if men want to meet real fast ! They want only one thing anyway. And as far as being the cheating woman ?? How can she cheat if she doesn't show up ? Why is she on here if she just wants to toy with your mind ? Ever think she may not want to meet you anyway ? Has no interest ?

I haven't read this whole thread...so if I repeat, sorry....

At this moment in time, I have an ex-landlord "stalking" me....plays games with my car, mostly....went to get my snowbrush on the second day of a two day blizzard, and it was gone....just gone....cell phone, missing...phone cord cut....I found out too late that this man has a history of doing things like this....he is "happily" married with an 18 year old daughter at home.

I met a man who decided not to date me, because I went with him, in his car for coffee.....I didn't take my own car.....

I live in a small town, I had his name, phone number, where he worked, where he used to work, where he lives.......

Could he have made off with me....yes. But since I told at least 4 people what I was doing that night, I don't think it would be very hard to figure out what happened, if I had turned up missing.

My point is, that I have someone who is threatening my safety in a demented way...how far would he go?

I feel more safe, when I'm out, and about, than I do at home.....

She is like a puppet master getting guys to dance so her ego can get stroked.

I agree with this. And some of them are true experts at being puppet masters...

^^ The only solution for men is... don't bite.

I might be willing to send one reminder e-mail to someone if I haven't heard from her in a while, but overall, I'm not going to sit around waiting to get into contact with them. By the second or third e-mail I will suggest a phone call, and nine times out of ten she'll reply with her number (and I'll reply with mine).

Once I call, as the conversation is coming to a close, I'll start to suggest date ideas and make at least tentative plans to get together. If someone is going to string me along, then I'll just back up and let her come to me if and when she's ready. If she never is, then I can just set up a date with someone else.

I'm here to meet women in person, not be a pen pal.
