is it just me or what
Posted: 2/1/2010 5:36:55 PM
Texting is good for busy people who don't have the time to call. I am a busy person. I don't always have the luxury of getting back to someone in an hour or two. As far as your phone call on sunday. Something might have come up. She has never met you. She is not commited to you. You call her twice. Sign of desperation. You killed your chances by coming on too desperate.

Taking the Hint
Posted: 7/28/2009 3:03:11 PM
Sometimes people just don't want to be rude or hurtful. However, I am learning that it is always better to communicate that you enjoyed the date, but didn't feel a connection.

Question about ratings.
Posted: 7/21/2009 2:25:55 PM
I am relatively new to this online dating site. I am curious about the criteria of rating pictures. I have always thought I was marginally attractive. However, when I get rated as a one...are they being mean or am I really just that unattractive?

Are women who don't need men likely to ever find one and be happy?
Posted: 7/9/2009 9:58:10 AM
are you saying that women don't need to be needed?? i think EVERYONE needs to be needed.
I think to be "wanted" is better to be "needed". Needy people make me run. Needy people generally have very little to contribute to a relationship. They are always depending on you to do "everything". This zaps your energy. A healthy relationship is when both people feed the fire. A needy person very rarely has enough self-esteem to keep the fire going. Therefore it is very exhausting for the other person. Plus it sucks to be the needy person in the relationship...you have no power. At best, you put yourself in the position to be taken advantage of.

HOW TO CUT IT SHORT???
Posted: 7/1/2009 1:17:11 PM
The whole picture thing is a reaL JOKE on here. I don't find anyone looks as good in person as in the photos. Everyone puts their best photo forward I suppose.
This is why I put up multiple pictures on here. Everyone looks differently depending on clothing, mood, facial expression, etc. I would rather not be contacted at all than to meet someone and have "wasted" their time and mine based on a false physical image of me. I understand that some people do fluctuate on weight from time to time. However, if you have gained fifty pounds since your profile pic was taken...you may want to upgrade your pic or at the very least disclose this prior to meeting. It saves embarrassment and resentment. Plus, you would be easier to recognize in a busy restaurant or airport.

How do YOU handle rejection?
Posted: 6/30/2009 10:03:43 AM
I smile, say "okay seeya" and move on.
There'll be another bus coming any minute....
will she be under it? Just kidding. maybe not. Depends on how rude she is. You are required to give no explanation. Just no fireworks. Maybe she looks better in real life and it is your loss. Who knows. Maybe she is not used to rejection. At any rate...no answer and a block is how I would handle that.

HOW TO CUT IT SHORT???
Posted: 6/30/2009 9:57:20 AM
I'm thinking if people put as much creativity and thought into actually getting a relationship going as they do invernting excuses and finding reasons NOT to give someone a chance, there probably wouldn't be so many single people
agreed, however chemistry is chemistry. Sometimes you have it and sometimes you don't. It sure saves a ton of time, if you know the other person doesn't find you attractive, whether physically or mentally. What one considers ugly another will consider beautiful. If nothing is there, nothing is there. Some people would be better off as just friends.

Posted: 6/30/2009 9:48:26 AM
Just be honest. Say that you are sure they are a nice person, but you feel no chemistry. It saves a lot of time and you don't have to lie. I could appreciate that, since I know I am not all that and a bag of chips. It must be hard on all of you handsome guys and beautiful ladies out there. lol!! My heart bleeds. Then say, by the way, how old is that picture on your profile? You might need to update it.

Is this nature's joke on us?
Posted: 6/23/2009 5:08:30 PM
People are generally fickle. We all want what we cannot have. We don't place high value on what is easily attained. I was just talking to someone about this the other day. I was dating this woman and things were going well. There were some things that she did that I didn't exactly like, but they weren't deal breakers. We were seeing each other pretty regularly. Well, then I got busier at work and I had to back off seeing her as much. Well, then she got crazy and started a accusing me of cheating on her or meeting someone else. She bacame a stalker. She would check on me all of the time to make sure that I was doing what I said I was doing. Which I was. However, I found that the more insecure she got, the less interested I got. I am not sure that if we had a good relationship that this is how things would have gone, but this is generally human nature. Like it or not. I am not sure that it is controllable.

GF kissed another guy... what do i do?
Posted: 6/23/2009 4:56:06 PM
The key is...she told you. She didn't have to. In order for her to do that she must have thought enough of you to think you to tell you. That is a personal judgment call. I would have to weigh all of the options. Do I love her. Do her good qualities outweigh the bad ones. What are your values? Have you cheated or kissed another woman while with her? A ton of information needed to make a final decision. I think we all find attractive people on a daily basis. It is stupid to believe that there is only one person on this planet that you are going to find attractive enough to date. The key is to be able to control our desires. How old is this woman?

why if I search for someone to date they all ways has kids
Posted: 4/10/2009 5:45:40 AM
have two good friends and they are single parents, why is it when someone is looking for someone they have kids, some times I don't need to rise someone elses kids, I always like to start fresh and and build a family the old fashion way. I don't like divcorce, I think itis wrong or leaving someone.
There are too many different circumstances that can occur in relationships that do and should result in separation or divorce. Abuse, neglect, or just plain lack of respect (that one covers cheating, and lying). My philosophy is to hate the sin and not the sinner. I don't necessarily want to raise another's children, but if the right woman came along, I wouldn't discount her because of "life experiences". I am not one who believes that anyone is perfect. Hell, I know that I am not. I am not casting any stones, I don't qualify.
At the same time, if something does not jive with your philosophy, religion, creed, or beliefs...that is something that you cannot ignore either. Just know that the narrower you cast that net, the fewer fish you are going to catch...and you just might miss that one that is really awesome for you. Happy hunting! If that one truly exists. lol

Confused!
Posted: 3/31/2009 6:58:52 AM
Give him the benefit of the doubt. Unless he has given you other reasons to doubt him. Based on the information given, my thoughts are that he is a private person. I have met people like this. I am not saying he is right or wrong, nor are you right or wrong. Maybe you are just different. The big question is this. Is this going to make or break your relationship? Would you have really wanted him to change his status only to appease you? If you keep pushing him, he will run...guaranteed!!

Relationships and Women, hey guys what do you think?
Posted: 3/23/2009 6:20:07 AM
The whining is from lack of sex
Or if they get it on a regular basis, they then find out their partner is wack-a-doodle, or has some major personality flaw/disorder that makes the cost of the sex way too high
I guess it all depends on who is doing the whining. lol. Personally, I can't deal with whiners. If you are not getting what you want from a relationship, do something about it. We all have choices. Communication is the key. If the other person is not stepping up to the plate, that says a lot. I am not one who needs someone so bad that I am willing to do all of the work myself. I will put in my share, but be real. If you are with someone who is not putting anything into it, it is probably time to move on. JMO

The photo. I think it's all about the picture. The more photos the better.
If the photo is awesome and there are two words in the email and 5 words in the profile I might still want to respond to him.

Three words you don't want to hear when having sex:
"operation was successful"
"Are you gay?"
"my fee is..."
"You're done! Next..."
"My husband's here!"
"I've had better!"
"Is that it?"
"Hey, it's tiny!"
"Look! It's cute!"
Where is it?"
"It's Dateline NBC"
"I am infected"

In New York City it is against the law to fire a pistol at a jackrabbit from a trolly car
Not even in self-defense? They can be ruthless! I guess if I go there I'd better bring the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch. If there isn't a law against hand grenades on a trolly, that is...
I think a bazooka would work nicely...it would take out the rats too. ;)

However, have you noticed that more people have handicapped placards on their vehicles these days? Wal Mart has a whole parking lot designated for handicapped in our city. lol. FYI ... I have complete sympathy for people who are truly handicapped. However, when I see a delivery truck with a handicapped placard on it, it makes me a little skeptical. hmmmm

I think you are #1 either dealing with a pretty boy who uses women to gain financial status or #2 a guy that is struggling to make ends meet with high expectations of eventually getting to travel to these exotic places (maybe he is planning on winning the lottery this year???). Either way, you are on the wrong road. The first one will just use you to get what he wants. The second one is not ready for a relationship until he gets his ducks in a row.

Strange Experiences
Posted: 3/5/2009 2:54:32 PM
Ever wonder why the local Dance club has handicapped parking. C'mon really, if these people can dance.......they can walk like the rest of us.
Ever wonder why they couldn't squeeze that extra calorie out of Pepsi one? Is that calorie so important that they had to create a second Diet Pepsi product? I guess they figured some people just need that extra calorie to fulfill their daily recommended allowance.
Why do we have to scan our own credit card at the grocery store when there is a perfectly good clerk to this for us? Why is it that I am always right behind that person that does not know how to scan their credit card?
How does McDonald's keep your orders straight when there are double order drive consoles? They couldn't always get your order straight when there was only one drive up order console. Which is more important speed or accuracy?

Did you know that.....
- sex burns off 360 calories an hour. I finally found a workout that works for me.
- it is against the law to engage in sex on a parked motorcycle in London.
- in ancient Rome, men found guilty of rape had their testicles crushed between two stones as punishment..sounds fair to me.
- it is illegal in Alaska to give a moose an alcoholic drink...is this really a problem?
- Richard Gere's middle name is Tiffany.. I wonder if ..no, am sure the hamster rumors are false.

Strange Experiences
Posted: 3/5/2009 8:55:41 AM
What's the deal with these automated toilets that flush entirely on their own schedule? Sometimes they just go off randomly. You're still sitting down and suddenly it just flushes. "How dare you! I'll decide when I'm done!!" And then other times it won't flush when you want it to. You stand up and stare at the toilet. Sometimes you have to fake it. You sit back down. . .stand up! Sit down. . .stand up! Then you try tiptoeing away as if you're leaving. Nothing works.
Maybe you just initiated the automatic butt washer...

Deal Breakers?
Posted: 3/5/2009 8:25:01 AM
I think it is a good idea to put out deal breakers. It lets people know ahead of time, if you fit the profile they are looking for. I have my deal breakers, too. I think we all do, whether we voice them or not. Most of mine are not physical, but emotional and personality traits. I am a very outgoing person by nature. I don't think someone who is a recluse would be a good match for me. Why lie? I think that laying it all out there does limit your responses, but I am sure that most people would prefer to know some of these things up front. These deal breakers are a big deal to them, otherwise they wouldn't be deal breakers. I am not going to waste my time with someone who puts a deal breaker on thier profile that does not jive with me.
However, if you are going for quantity vs. quality....keep it light and don't put up restrictions. Be honest all the same. It is the best policy.

Anyone Ever Bring Out The Mean-ness In You?
Posted: 3/5/2009 8:05:14 AM
Oh yes. I can go from Zero to Biotch in 1.5 seconds when I see:
Feigned ignorance
Ass kissing brown nosers
Insincerity
Passive aggressive behaviour
Rudness
Sarcasm aimed at me unless they've earned that privilege
Verbal abuse of children
Anyone being unkind to an animal
That I am being lied to
That I am being manipulated
Anyone cutting down someone that I care about
AND
People who walk under awnings with their umbrellas up and try to force me to walk in the rain. Step aside or there WILL be contact.
I promise to only be sarcastic with people whom I have earned that privelege . What does that mean??? I agree with all of the others, but that one stumped me.

But thats just my opinion...and what do I know?
Take my advice...I'm not using it!
No truer words have ever been spoken. I think we all have advice that we give our friends and relatives, but we never take that advice ourselves. It could be that we don't see ourselves objectively enough. I was amused by your wording. Couldn't resist commenting on it.

Dated for 4 months and she says she was never attracted
Posted: 3/5/2009 7:46:05 AM
People on these forums (myself included) have been shot down and accused of being shallow for only wanting to date people that we are attracted to and for not 'seeing whats inside that counts'. Maybe she took their advice and tried it - it doesnt work!
I think everyone should date people they are attracted to. I would not want to date someone I was not physically and mentally attracted to, nor would it be a good situation for me to be dating someone who is not into me. I don't think anyone is EVER 100 per cent perfect for another person. We aren't even 100 per cent perfect for ourselves.
I have been on both ends of this situation. I met this woman on a blind date. She wasn't ugly and we had mental chemistry. I never told her that I found her physically attractive, but I did enjoy her company. We went out a few times. I really wanted to be physically attracted to her, but I never was. Anyway to make a long story short, I just happened to meet someone who I found attractive physically and mentally and dropped her. It wasn't planned and I felt bad, but I can understand why and how it happens. It just wasn't in the cards.
It does suck, but look on the bright side. You only invested four months into this relationship...My advice. Move on and forget about her. She has...

Why do men want to meet after a 3 minute conversation?
Posted: 3/5/2009 7:25:43 AM
Communication is about 70% body language, 20% tone, and 10% content. ( I'm not making that up-- reasearch it and see!) What does that say about emails?
I think if have your profile on a dating site.....DATE!! lol. Why is this so complicated? What are the rules? Who makes the rules? Is there a perfect amount of time to make a connection??? We are all human. We all bleed. We all put our pants on one leg at a time. What is really the problem?

why some men don't like their girlfriends having a lot of friends?
Posted: 3/4/2009 8:05:44 AM
if the guy is no1 , then the group cannot influence the so called girl. just sometimes, a girl needs and likes to be with someone other than the s/o. don't men like to sit around with their buddies and watch games, and drink beers without the relationship thing in their mind? it's just a different breath of air.
I agree with you. No one can be all things to another being. That is a great burden to bear. I wouldn't want that type of a relationship. I have my family and friends. Sure, there are times when we can all hang out together, but there are also times when the men and the women have to do their things separate. As long as you have respect, love, trust, and honor for one another, it makes for a healthier relationship.
The only legitimate reason I can see for people not liking their s/o having a lot of friends is if they are not making any time for the s/o. However, then I would have to question why you are with each other to begin with.

Why do men want to meet after a 3 minute conversation?
Posted: 3/3/2009 7:21:45 AM
"You're obviously not a woman.
Do you know how many weirdos contact us on here? Thank GOD I've ignored this *meet immediately* advice, or I would have invited some seriously creepy people into my life!
You may meet people everyday, but they haven't picked you out of 1,000s of people because they want something from you. That's a bit different. "
Lonestar, I understand what you are saying. I am not going to pretend that I know what it is like to be on here as a woman, I don't. You have to do what you feel comfortable with. I am only saying that you are probably weeding out some good people with that strategy, as well. A little secret. Some of us guys are oblivious to the "rules" of the game. I am not looking for a hook up or an intimate encounter. If I like what someone's profile says and we are having a good conversation by IM or e mail, it is sometimes easier to talk on the phone. If a guy gives you his number, you can always block your number and call him...or you can tell him that you aren't interested. Women have so many options. It must be horrible.
I will definitely agree three minutes is a little too soon to give out a number. I sometimes like to stir the pot up a little.

"If a guy wants to give me his not to soon I am thinking....desperate or does this 10 times a day...either way total turn off!!!"
This would be to assume that you think that are just one of the herd. It may just be that he really does like you, is the aggressive go getter type who takes the world by the horns and doesn't like to waste time. I don't know. I just don't try to pre judge others before I meet them. Not all of us guys are "game" players. I guess I am just out of the loop.

Didn't mean for it to come out that way, but the same people here that complain that they never meet anyone serious, also complain about the people that want to meet them too early. A simple no is acceptable. If you don't want to close the door on that one forever, you might also want to add a reason. Keeping in mind there are "zillions out there!" Those of us that are secure, can take a hint. :)

The subtle signals we give out.
Posted: 3/2/2009 6:55:11 AM
I think in our world of 24 hour news and instant everything, we don't give people much of a second chance at anything. Some days I am not at my best. If my dog dies, I get an unexpected bill, or whatever, that can have affect on my personality. I assume that is the same for others too, if it doesn't, be very afraid. lol. Anyway, I have learned not to a book by it's cover. My best friend was a person that I didn't get along with all that well at first. At the same time, I have even had some people that I hit it off with at the beginning that turned out to be not what I expected. It is often a mistake to judge too fast. No magic pill, here.

Isn't a date, just that a date? Not a relationship? When I was a store manager, I didn't just read a resume and hire them. I held interviews. The initial date is just like an interview. I am not saying that I will ask every woman out that I e mail or IM with. I feel that if she is someone that I would like to get to know better, I will at least make an attempt to meet her. If she says no. That is ok. She ought to be flattered that someone wants to meet her. If she isn't, that says a lot about her too. It also may speak volumes about why she is still single. I don't think it is sense of insecurity to want to meet, it is actually sometimes an act of bravery. lol

Why do men want to meet after a 3 minute conversation?
Posted: 3/2/2009 6:16:08 AM
What is so wrong with meeting people after a 3 minute conversation. I meet people every day in person that I have never even had a 2 second conversation with before we met. I think you have to be a little guarded, but be real. If you want to meet someone, meet them. If you are just playing on here, then keep on chatting. I think the old term fish or cut bait applies.

"So do you ask them, Bryce?
"Hey, how serious are you w/ the other guys you 'date'?"
Do you not ask & just assume they ARE sleeping w/ someone...& only worry about it when the two of you are getting close to that?"
It takes a while for me to get that close. If and when we get serious enough to sleep together, I would hope that it would be exclusive by then. I am not a prude by any means, just been there and done that. As far as irons in the fire, I was strictly talking about dating. If it gets to the next step, both profiles would be hidden and it would be exclusive. If she isn't willing to do that, it is a deal breaker. This is why I don't worry so much.

I would appreciate constructive criticism and of course the humorous the better. New to on line dating. Of course, I might not want advice from the old timers. j/k. I am trying to keep it in line with my personality. I guess the real questions are: Am I giving too much information? Not enough? Or is a complete rewrite in order?
Thanks, Bryce

Why do men want to meet after a 3 minute conversation?

Has anyone else ever ran into this? I had this friend who was awesome face to face, but when you asked him to write something. He couldn't write to save his life. He had punctuation and spelling errors all over the page and couldn't put together complete thoughts. Sometimes by writing you usually get one dimension of the person. I have also run into this scenario. I emailed, talked and texted this woman for two months before meeting her. When we finally met, we realized that there was no physical chemistry. I felt like I wasted two months.

I can only speak for myself, but I think you have to have a lot of irons in the fire until you find someone you want to be exclusive with. I don't think going on a couple of dates constitutes exclusiveness, unless it is mutually agreed upon. Honesty is the best policy. I think if you are having sex with someone, they should know whether or not you are exclusive or not. If it is just a booty call, call it that. Once you get to that stage, I would hope that you would already know. I am still a little old fashioned when it comes to that. Not a prude, but not interested in dating the town slut, either.

modern rules
Posted: 2/27/2009 7:13:15 AM
There is no magic pill. There never has been a perfect situation. I think some people are better at communicating than others. Some try too hard and some don't really put out any effort at all. I do think that the majority of people are somewhere in the middle. The rules that are important are what your deal breakers are. A person can compromise on some things, but you should never compromise on things that are important. They don't go away. Once the lust dies, it will smack you hard in the face. Then the other person is left wondering what the heck happened. lol
Another question. Do you think that people put out effort based on how interested they are in the relationship? Don't you think that there can be just lazy people out there that don't know any better? just curious.
