| How did your first time meeting up w/ someone from POF go? Posted: 8/23/2008 8:16:02 AM | I've done it more than once and I think you have to remain positive no matter what the situation. If things don't turn out well then you can look at it as having met someone you probably wouldn't otherwise meet.
One time I emailed someone back and forth who was new to the area. We decided to meet up later that night and wing it. We ended up catching a train into NYC and picked a random sushi place to eat at. It was a lot of fun once we both loosened up and it was topped off by ice cream at the end of the night. | |

| How did your first time meeting up w/ someone from POF go? Posted: 8/23/2008 8:47:22 AM | A few things I just don't understand:
Why would you let someone come to your house for first date?
Why would you go to a movie on first date? Kinda hard to get to know someone better, sitting silently in a movie!
What is with the idiot guys that start talking about sex ten minutes into the first meeting? Wrong approach, guys!!! | |

Good and bad worth it for the experience of meeting new people and making new friends. Good luck That is so true!!! Mine went really well ! I meet him at the park we talked for hours then we went our ways. I made it about 5 mins down the road before his txt came in inviting me out to dinner the next night. It went very well we talked in the parking lot until alte in the evening he kissed me goodnight I went on my way then he sent his txt telling me he wanted me to be his girl. So.... the rest is history lol. Tatts
Good luck to all POF memebers!!! | |

| How did your first time meeting up w/ someone from POF go? Posted: 8/23/2008 9:51:55 AM | | That is so fantastic Tatts!!! I have met a dozen or so people from another site over a period of a few months and they were all disappointing for one reason or another. Also a male friend who is on another site told me that most of the women he met said they were an average size and then wham..............size 22 comes around the corner. The problem there is they have lied to you and they are way bigger than you imagined. The guy I thought was going to be the "one" recently turned out to be like Herman Munster, if anyone even remembers that show. Well that's what he reminded me of. But I'm optimistic or I wouldn't waste my time here. The trick is not to put all your energies into this site - go about your business and do other things. | |

| How did your first time meeting up w/ someone from POF go? Posted: 8/23/2008 10:03:47 AM | | I've had a few dates off this site...1 was outstanding, we seemed to click right away..had similar interests, this guy had researched my profile (both here and on another site) and the first date he arranged was spectacular, never to be forgotten. I felt very flattered and my heart skipped a few beats...another date,have to say chemistry is important, we exchanged pics but when he showed up in person, well, the chemistry wasn't there, nice enough guy. Another date was fun, a guy from my own town, very intelligent, conversational. I kept the last couple dates short, an hr and a half, if things are somewhat 'iffy' about the attraction , an hour and a half is plenty of time to chat in some depth and then excuse yourself to go home and think about the evening and the person and make a decision on another date. In general, if the date is a good conversationalist, things always seem to go smoothly, if not well. | |

| How did your first time meeting up w/ someone from POF go? Posted: 8/23/2008 10:11:00 AM | Hahaha, I've met two guys off this site.
First guy: LUNATIC!!!! Well he came over and we talked and then went to a patio and had a couple drinks. It was super hot out, and I'm guessing he was drinking before hand, because he flat out passed out on the patio. He was done. Left me stranded there. The bartender paid for me to get home, hahaha, and they took his keys away and sh*t. Later that night, The Lunatic showed up at my apt buildings and started screaming my name from the back parking lot....Needless to say, that was done with super fast.
Second guy: Went awesome, and I've seen him a couple times since, and am planning on seeing him more! | |

| How did your first time meeting up w/ someone from POF go? Posted: 8/23/2008 10:22:38 AM | I have once, year ago had an experience with a guy who posted a very old picture of what he really was, and I barely could recognize the person at the date, plus his first displayed traits towards me were of an angry personality, and I would dare to say, he is a batterer personality, who right away "demanded" me, first to recognize that I was "exact" five minutes late to our date (of course, it took time for me to know that the old guy staring at me was him...) , next he again "demanded" me to go out of that local we met, in order for us to speak there outside...
Though, at least I took the precaution to date in a public place, and where I could easily ask either for a security or for help. So... My answer was a simply and calm "no", I am busy, and he "marched" out visibly angry and left. I continued calmly checking POF thereafter and later he logged in and I got him angrily insisting to chat with me over POF, what I immediately blocked, for a good and justified reason...
It was a good lesson for me... I learned to better "assess" my potential dates before I meet them... I do not like waste my precious time either, so I am towards a positive "time management" with the right guy at the right place and time...
GOOD EXPERIENCE= I adored him by his hello and first sight... I had taken some precaution and did do my discret "assessment", if I really wanted it, and it was GREAT... we've had a short but very intensive relationship and it was a fullfilling time for me... I hope he experienced the same, he is a great personality, to love forever, all my respects...
I take it by the moment, one day at time, I have something to share and I let it come to me naturally, how they come, how they are... nothing assumed, nothing fantasized, nothing expected (too much) ... 
I think that is the way how to experience the positive side of things... think positive and it will happen to you... | |
