Posted: 11/22/2004 9:13:44 PM | | I just got home from a date with someone from here and it was not all that good. I was so board. all he did was talk about work and things I really was not interested in. I should have known before we went out that it was not going to work because he had left me a message on my e-mail saying all kinds of crazy stuff. But anyway he seemed like a nice guy just not for me so if any guys out there have had a bad experiance with dating and would like to chat sometime feel free to send me a message I am still looking. | |

Posted: 11/25/2004 9:37:26 AM | | I am waiting for that day when someone will come on here, tell us that he or she met someone from here and that they had fun and two months later tell us that things are still good. Does it mean that all people just turn out to be something bad? seriously, all i ever hear are complaints? i am not lashing out, am just trying to say that atleast amongst all of us, someone should come out happy with another both from in here. | |

Posted: 11/25/2004 1:55:38 PM | | its possible, that the idea of the person, the fantasy , is what is throwing everyone off. Plus, we are turning the pc on and off at will. At OUR will. In a real situation, you have only half the control, and maybe everyone wants all of it. Plus...we can't help ourselves wanting a story book fantasy, we get that stuff shoved down our throat from childhood. Don't get me wrong- I love a good story..especially with a happy ending. It's really the middle part - a happy middle - happy today, that we're all out for...and I must say, we all have things to be happy for- with successful dating going on ..or not. Why, it must be "Happy Thanksgiving" today!!!!! "hoo - haa" strikes again~~~ | |

Posted: 11/26/2004 12:15:50 PM | SUM...you are too cute...definitely not a stalker! Now I know "who" you want for Christmas!
Anywho...
I went on a date with someone off here before...we went and saw the Day After Tomorrow...it went very well actually. We are still friends and talk all the time. It ended up being more of a sexual thing though...we didn't really click on the relationship level I guess.
BTW...all we do is talk now! haha | |

Posted: 11/26/2004 1:28:40 PM | Pnk...Thanks sweetie, Shhhhh dont tell him... Yes I am sure Vivid knows how much I would luv to meet him someday(soon would be great) and yeah having him in my christmas stocking this year would be fabulous, I have to be a bit more realistic now dont I?
Luv that story girl...
I guess for me, as I have actually met a couple of men a while back from another online site....I can say this I have made some pretty kewl friends online, but NONE of the ones I have met or the ones who still want to meet me, well I am not interested in them in a romantic way.....I just cant invision it becomming anything....Without a mutal attraction I find that I cant go past the first meeting...
TO ALL THOSE WHO ARE GOING TO MEET SOMEONE FROM HERE, I WISH YOU THE VERY BEST, AND HOPE IT IS EVERYTHING YOU HOPE FOR. | |

Posted: 11/26/2004 6:29:31 PM | I have not joined this site for dating or relationships only for friends, so I believe if something doesn't work out then it's not so bad. I don't think people should jump into a relationship, start off as friends or go for some dates that way the expectations aren't too high. I have met a few people from online, one person from here. He invited me to a party, which was a bit awkwards since I didn't know anyone! In all I would say it was a good experience and look forward to our friendship.
To catchmeifucan, I know a couple people who have met someone online, not on here but still. She even moved from Malaysia to live with him in Belgium and they are happily married now. | |

Posted: 8/12/2008 10:32:35 AM | Myfirst week in pof I dated a nice gentleman here, but I am not crossing my fingers that he is the" one". Time will tell.. why so nervous the ice is already broken by emailing and talking on the phone ? You are just meeting a human being like yourself, it is no big deal just be "friendly and courteous" . And enjoy | |

Posted: 8/12/2008 10:53:35 AM | Reading replies on this forum it is just so sad that we are all so scared to go on a date, a smiple date.
Be causious and yes let friends or family know where you are going and who your are meeting and give them any information you have on them. You can arrive at the destination early and position yourself to see his vechile lic #. Write it done or email to a trust friend. Be safe rather that sorry or have a gal pal go with you or have her accidentally bump into you and make introductions. Then you now and he knows others are aware of him. that should be enough. Always trust the little inner voice in your head, and never ignore it.
Good Luck | |

Posted: 8/12/2008 6:13:04 PM | now that i think about it a bit , guess no for this question .
have added some to msn and talked to them over the years on there , but not alot of luck at taking things to the next level for whatever reason ( just never got that serious with any of them before ) . seem to meet more girls in real life and use this site more for the forums over personals . | |

Posted: 8/12/2008 8:18:38 PM | | I used to date this one guy in Boston, then met him again on POF 15 years later! It was so bizarre to see his picture pop up in an IM! We both relocated to the Austin area, and have renewed the friendship. There wasn't any nervousness on my part because I just don't see him as anything other than a friend after all this time. Otherwise, I haven't met anyone in person from this site. | |

Posted: 8/14/2008 9:20:57 AM | "Take it as it comes.
Do the best you can do, but don't get over-anxious over the whole thing.
Mostly, enjoy yourself."
Just replying to something, as I don't see how I can simply add to the topic.
I agree with the first line above. The second line I wouldn't say... telling someone not to think of something is a sure way to make them think of it. The last line is okay.
My first "date" out of the box (after a very long dry spell) went surprisingly well, considering that, I'm am a bit phobic about people now and I didn't even know what she looked like. By all rights I should have been a mess and a total dork, but I couldn't have been more comfortable, and we had such a good time that 4 hours flew by before we knew it... but I also share credit for that with her... she is a very nice and intelligent person. In that respect opposites do not attract either. So if you're a decent person, open, honest, and genuinely just want to be in the moment with someone, it can go very smoothly. | |

Posted: 8/14/2008 2:45:02 PM | Cindy......Distance is a problem for both, unless one is willing to take the chance to not have that distance be the reason for not getting together and finding out....
Once you do find out, then you decide if you can live with the distance, or change it, one way or the other......
We all need to keep trying and not give up, but also not expect another to do for us what we should be doing for ourselves as well. If the attraction is there, and the desire grows because the chemistry is mutual, then there should not be a reason to think that connection is impossible, just because of distance, but just another obstacle to overcome, and my attitude is that I am more than worth that effort.....
OT......Yes, I have met and had dates, even a relationship from POF, and even though they might not have all worked out, I am still here and enjoying this site for what it has to offer.
Just my opinion......  | |
