Very hard to do that when you are feeling alone in the world, but for your own good I would go slow like she said. Gado Cant never Could, Wont never Will ! | |

From doing this sort of thing before, I've gotten to where I talk back and forth by chat or email for a while to get an idea of where we might stand, but I don't like doing it for all that long. I figure it's good to get the ice broken first, but I'd rather not get my hopes up too much before we actually meet. Pictures only give you an idea of what the possible chemistry might be. Looks aren't everything, but they are definitely something important. | |

Just make sure you meet in a public place, take your cell phone, let lots of people know where you are, if the date moves to a new location, update everyone, and have someone call you often enough to know your still safe but not to often to be annoying. Be yourself, have fun, and if alcohol is involved only have 1 or 2 drinks. Drive your own car, then if he is not who he said he was you can just leave. Don't get in his car. Most of all just relax and have fun. | |

If you are a teenager, don't go to the meeting unless an adult you trust comes with you. You can't know what the person is actually like before you meet them, so safety is your primary concern. | |

What % of men in our society do you think are capable of such a crime? So you recommend not getting into 'his' car? Does that mean you wouldn't get on the back of my scooter? You offered some pretty good advice that you should probably follow - 'relax' - after all, aren't we all just little boys and girls in grown up bodies? Rusty | |

| Re: have you had an "Actual Date" with someone from here? Posted: 9/14/2004 7:48:35 AM | | I met someone here we dated for a couple months and she wanted commitment.I had decided it would be a great thing.She had male friends that she said were just friends.So after we agree to commit to each other she tells me she is going to spend the night with one of her male friends.She tells me that nothing is going to happen and that i should trust her completely.When i told her i was uncomfortable with it she broke off the relationship.I believe in total commitment.I would never have thought to spend the night with one of my female friends. | |

| Re: have you had an "Actual Date" with someone from here? Posted: 9/16/2004 3:29:14 PM | Eh, I've actually found someone I might have a possible future with. I'm not counting any chickens quite yet though, just taking it as it comes and seeing how things go.
And it's not who you think it is, baby. | |

Posted: 9/17/2004 12:23:39 AM | | Davy: man I feel your pain over the gal you just made a commitment too that wanted to spend the night with a male friend. I must say that the way you worded your reaction: "I would never have thought to spend the night with one of my female friends." - had me laughing so hard I almost fell on the floor here! Indeed, most of us would not of just suddenly decide to spend the night with another same sex friend right after making a faithful commitment. | |

| Re: have you had an "Actual Date" with someone from here? Posted: 9/19/2004 11:40:56 AM | | I've met one woman from this site back in may. She was from cleveland and I'm from illinois lol. So it's a bit of a drive lol. But she was and is a wonderful woman and a good friend. So to all of you out there hang in there cause some of the people on here are very real and sincere in what they're looking for it just ain't gonna happen over night. And I don't know about dates but I'm gonna meet quite a few people in st'louis in a couple of weeks from here and am looking foward to actualy meeting the people that I chat with in the forums. lol | |
