| no luck with pof this time pof guy stole 500 bucks and ran away Posted: 12/10/2007 2:44:52 AM | Reaing the posters profile I am wonderingwhat she might be attracting by putting herself out there as portrayed inher profile.?? Felony fights?? I just read a few postss in the thread. Fortunately she and her son were not hurt. They are irreplaceable. Anyway I am casting no judgment here. Just making an observation.Iknowmy profile as well will attract only a very limited number of readers. Play SAFE, BE SAFE!

He could of raped you ,killed you ,beat you up or all three. Really foolish letting a stranger into your home. I don't care how long you talk to someone online . It does not mean you know them. | |

| no luck with pof this time pof guy stole 500 bucks and ran away Posted: 12/10/2007 4:31:48 AM | Op??....Your 29, and....you're dating an 18 year old??....okaaaaayyyy..well I am sorry to hear about your little situation, and that is not nice for anyone to steal money from anyone else.
But I think the best you can do is hope he uses the money for good and proper use, and just wish him luck you know? I know that may sound weird, but it's just one of the ways to handle this without loosing your cool.

Hold on, when she was talking to him, according to you, he was 17 when they first were chatting??, and you are saying that HE was the dangerous one??? Wasn't this underage dating, which is not the way to go? I mean yes it was mean what this guy did by stealing the money, but to assume that HE was the total focus here, I think she is missing the point, she was 11 years older then him. She could have been caught if you think about it. UNLESS she wasn't dating him, then thats another story. | |

| no luck with pof this time pof guy stole 500 bucks and ran away Posted: 12/10/2007 4:56:48 AM | I just googled felony fights..... I'd say cause and effect here. You attract what you wish for. If you like living on the edge......don't be surprised that you get burned.
Your whole profile is negative, you're bound to attract exactly that. | |

| no luck with pof this time pof guy stole 500 bucks and ran away Posted: 12/10/2007 5:51:08 AM | personally... i like this woman! she see what she likes and goes after it!! she just needs to be more careful with her money and giving out her address. we more more women like this. too many of you ladies just sit back and wait for the guy to do all the dirty work. here's a woman who lives on the edge and is really living life to the fullest (unlike many of those profiles that say the same thing. my hat is off to you.only thing is a turnoff is your grammar and punctuation. that needs a little work and then you are good to go!!!!  | |

| no luck with pof this time pof guy stole 500 bucks and ran away Posted: 12/10/2007 6:11:07 AM | Living on the edge is her choice...complaining about the backlash is a contradiction. People who are ...let's use adventurous...... take it like a champ when something goes wrong. If you can't take the pressure don't play, don't complain. | |

| no luck with pof this time pof guy stole 500 bucks and ran away Posted: 12/10/2007 6:33:15 AM | What the OP does is her choice but I think that branding this guy "pof guy" is a very serious error. If she had met the guy at bar X would the OP have put in the title "bar x guy"? POF guys in my English speaking opinion are the guys who WORK for POF. Guys and Gals with profiles on POF are not "POF guys and gals".
As per the "no luck with pof" part of the title, I think that this does provide some license/invitation for criticism by fellow posters (but not by me) of the OP's dating preferences/choices.

i like this woman! ...and since you're a couple of decades too old for her message restrictions, you decided to publicly express your fascination for her, in this thread. LOL She's more interested in your grandson.
here's a woman who lives on the edge and is really living life to the fullest (unlike many of those profiles that say the same thing. my hat is off to you. If she choses to live life "to the fullest", then maybe she shouldn't publicly b1tch and complain when she experiences a consequence of "living life to the fullest"? | |

| no luck with pof this time pof guy stole 500 bucks and ran away Posted: 12/10/2007 8:55:17 PM | I will not surrender myself to the popular temptation to psychoanalyse an OPoster like some fellow posters seem inclided to do.
The OPoster is an adult. We all take risks, but we try to manage the situation so that expected benefits are at maximum and expected risks at minimum.
I do not see how dating an 18 year old is "excessive safety risk" compared eg to a 26 year old one? Maybe those who do can explain their risk analysis premises?????
I do think that labelling the guy "pof guy" is unfair for pof. It also seems to imply a tendency to allocate blame to others, and in this case this young man, based on the data provided seems to have committed theft. But taking it further than that, like some posters have, seems to imply a "Looking for Mr. Goodbar" movie effect in THEIR minds, something that is NOT supported by the evidence in the OPost.
Thus, whereas I think that it is natural for the OPoster to not appreciate being a victim of money theft, and wanting to vent about it, I think that next time she can have better luck by being more cautious in certain areas (eg leaving money around or inviting a person at home for the first ever IRL meet after 1 year of online contact).
I am also puzzled by some of the interests the OP lists in her post, but I always consier them off topic to such a thread in these forums. There do exist proper forums for profile content comments and "advice"!
Plus, the safety of the baby factors have to be factored in in future decisions, of course! When we are alone, we can have the luxury of taking personal risks, when we are not, we have to incorporate the factors of our dependent in any decision we make, be this person a baby or an elderly sick bedridden parent (my case).
Make love as is you have never been hurt! | |

Not trying to be mean when I say this, but you have to know who you are letting in your place or you are spending the night with. The clear problem I see is your choices. Until you can make better choices, you should probably stay away from internet dating. There's no rush in getting to know someone who is worth getting to know.  | |

You can't blame anyone for the flack you're getting. You're on a website and you started the thread, so people are going to state opinions. If you were done, you probably wouldn't come back to see what people are typing. 
PS By keeping your profile that way, you're showing that you still want that kind of attention. | |

| no luck with pof this time pof guy stole 500 bucks and ran away Posted: 12/10/2007 11:21:19 PM | Things on forums don't usually end simply because an OP states they are done.
One reason is that someone may have a similar situation and rather than start another thread which stands the chance of getting deleted by members due to 'redundant', they do a search, find one in similarity and continue the thought process. | |

| no luck with pof this time of guy stole 500 bucks and ran away Posted: 12/10/2007 11:55:43 PM | If you didn't want people to comment on your foolish behaviour then you should of not posted it in the forums. You only started this thread a few days ago so it was already over a month ago that this situation happened when you started this thread.
You know if you were a man who was "hooking up" with girls who last year were in high school you would really be getting flaming right now , not the mild heating that you are getting.18 years old or not he is still bigger and stronger then you are ,and for all you know could of been having fantasies about rape or murder .You're lucky you're still around to learn from this curve ball life shot at you. | |
