Opening Car Doors for Dates
Posted: 11/24/2009 8:34:16 AM
No biggie, but it does make me say, how sweet..... But won't make or break date.. Still a nice gesture...but hmmmmm if I think the guy is weenie anyhow, I think, I know how to open my own darn door...lol!!! Not very high on important list for me... but to each their own... Just be generally polite and don't worry about car door.

Sure you have had much success??? I'm not your type, so no problem with a critique on how to do better... Well okay maybe...how can we tell you anything new if we don't know the old dog????

Hence...speaking for self but looking for someone who is funny, adores me for me, and I am not 1 of 20 but #1. Looks don't hurt and young at heart... What do you want to learn? How to play the next one? Think I don't understand question.. but best of luck..

When is it acceptable to tell a girl how you feel?
Posted: 11/9/2009 10:49:59 AM
So that is a tough question. Don't want to sound to eagor but don't want to look like not interested. Just go for what is in your heart.. When it is right, it will work. Now, need to take on my own advice.. Not so easy, to put it out there.

Why do women have issues with time ?
Posted: 11/9/2009 10:47:00 AM
I have a male friend who sets a time and always changes it to earlier. So, I have no problem on set time. But changing it up last minute??? So, it goes both ways!!

whats up with short initial emails?
Posted: 9/23/2009 4:07:54 PM
I have responded to a dare and a phone number. And not responded to a more thought out long email. That is where the profile and yes pixs come into place. Not saying best way to go at it, but I think more people are looking at pixs in the first place and go from there? And as always, could be all wrong on that!! I'm still here, so that is what it has gotten me, lol!

Communicating a lack of interest nicely.
Posted: 9/23/2009 4:00:37 PM
Went to hidden profile, in part for not wanting to send reply, ignore, or be rude. I don't worry if anyone responds to me, but hate being rude to others. And sometimes they don't get the polite thanks but no thanks. Oh well, we are all grown ups and anyway you respond or not should be taken with a grain of salt. Because it takes 2 to be interested.

Best of luck and stress on more important things!! Like finding the right mate! Okay telling myself that too!

Dating or Long Term?
Posted: 9/23/2009 3:53:20 PM
Doesn't really matter what you put, but how the date goes. But some that put dating really mean they are emotionally or otherwise not ready for long term, but may be interested in more. And some that put long term put that just because they think that is what girls want to hear or depends on who they meet? So, it all comes down to the person. Which you can give details on first meet. If it works it works!

Best of luck!!! Read back what I wrote and makes completely no sense. But either do the choices, LOL.

Had a general manager go to the bathroom and not realize his mike was still on. As we heard him tinkering, we also heard him say a few choice words about a few. Never seen so many high ups run out of the room to the bathroom to shut him up!!! LOL

What to think of her actions
Posted: 9/14/2009 10:21:45 AM
She is probably rethinking dating any one at work? And then to go on to the next, makes worst! Only dated one guy from work and won't again. Not because of bad ending but the gossip end at work. Unfortunately, people at work seem to make things up and it just turns out weird for everyone in the end.

But wish you luck and hope not the case!!! : )

Advice required for 1st Date!!!
Posted: 9/14/2009 10:14:17 AM
Go on the positive side, and hope it is a nice match!!!!!!

If not, well depends on which side that falls. He/she could just ignore all further contact. Or be grown up and say "Hey, not the one I'm looking for but wish you luck on future endeavors/dates?

All wait and see game. Wish you the best and think positive!!! And yes do a meet first then worry about a date.

Then again, what do I know, wish I could take my own advice, lol!

being selective with girls vs being general and indifferent
Posted: 8/26/2009 1:45:11 PM
My answer is blah, b;lah, and a little more blah!!! How do you know tell you meet in person, that is if you are not just going on pixs? I agree some I would not consider and some would not consider me. And don't deny, that is my first reaction. Do they have all their teeth? Are they half way fit? Do they have big pimple on their nose? Bathroom pixs?

Anyhow, you must have some that contact that you that aren't that bad. Which may relate in the real world as better then imagined?

But, as always your choice and that is what matters!

As a friend says to me .........Later Tater and best of luck!!!

Why would someone email to criticize a person's profile?
Posted: 8/26/2009 1:01:59 PM
At least he didn't ask you out, after that. You should write back with your own critiques on his profile. LOL It would be funny. And yours seems fine but didn't feel the need to read the whole thing.

Read a post in the humor section about random thoughts people have, or something like that?

One of them was.............................More often than not, when someone is telling me a story all I can think about is that I can't wait for them to finish so that I can tell my own story that's not only better, but also more directly involves me.

Think that might explain it all, LOL!!!

And no, didn't bother to read everyones post but had to post my own,

Because of a car, no....................................!!!!!

Knowledge of car maybe, depends on man.

A long long time ago. Went out on a date with a guy with a really nice car. But he didn't know that Chrysler had tooken over AMC. First and last date, lol. Okay, maybe more then that, just saying.

What was the qauestion??? lo,l

I'm hidden. And on stealth. Have tried all combinations, but works better for me,

Dated a couple of guys on here but didn't matter if I was hidden or not? Or what they do either. basically when you meet it clicks or doesn't.

Enjoy the forums, more then what I have found. (no offense, just saying)

Even if I found someone, still like posting in forums! Just out of boredom or fun. Who knows? But have that's my option.

So, is it acceptable to have guy friends?
Posted: 8/11/2009 9:34:32 PM
I see nothing wrong with guy friends. The guy you are seeing should be secure in relationship and own self that it is not a problem. Shows his own insecurities if there is an issue. Which can always be worked out if both parties are willing.

As always, on opinion!

can someone review my profile?
Posted: 7/30/2009 12:19:49 PM
Profile seems fine. Disagree with stating anymore on the kids. What you put is fine. You can give more details at later date. Doesn't lead me to believe any problems and I will give you benefit of doubt that you love them, it is a date for you not them. JMO, and the next might tell you differently.

You might want to rethink the hang-out restriction. Means different things to different people, again your choice. Do a thread search on it and get others opinion on what it means to them.

And when you say you are waiting for emails? Are you sending any? And do a thread search on that also, low response rate for many? And you might have to send many to get a few to reply. Some have better luck then others. If you aren't having luck then it is a good idea to switch things up, with different pixs or trying something else with profile.

Already forgot if you had a full body shot? Sorry, just means you have to put something to make your profile more memorable, and that is nothing against you, just saying.

Best of luck, hope I made some sort of sense?

Asking and being asked
Posted: 7/30/2009 8:01:48 AM
Yup, great job being pro-active on the asking. But first meet should really be something simple to get to know if you actually want to take it any farther.

Question, when they turned you down, did the communication stop? Maybe they actually did have plans?

Goodluck in your search!

Was he playing with me or was he true?
Posted: 7/30/2009 7:52:11 AM
I'm thinking you just want permission to answer any emails he sends. Do as you please but if you haven't met him yet what do you think the chances you ever will? If you can handle just chatting with him and don't put to much into it, then by all means keep it up. But it sounds like you are already an emotional trainwreck from the whole situation and it would be ill adviced.

Was he playing you? You weren't in a offline relationship and made no commitments to each other, so unless you sent him money, who really knows?

Hope you the best!

what are females really looking for on here.
Posted: 7/30/2009 7:19:15 AM
First and foremost, Nachos and Salsa, lol.

Now thAt the truth has set me free, I am also looking for physical attraction (which varies for everyone). But, also need an emotional connection too. Someones personality, will either make me more or less physically attracted to a man. So I will just go with the everything answer.

This is what my nephew found on it:

Facebook strives to create relevant and interesting advertisements to you and your friends. Here are the facts about Facebook Ads:
.. Read More
* Facebook Ads are sometimes paired with social actions (e.g., becoming a fan of a Page) that your friends have taken.
You only appear in Facebook Ads to your confirmed friends.

Facebook doesn't sell your information to advertisers.
Yesterday at 8:24pm · What this means is that when you view ads on facebook, instead of a generic photo you might see a photo with one of your friends instead of some random person. Your photos will not be shared with people who could not have seen them otherwise.
Yesterday at 8:26pm ·

I still set my privacy settings to not allow it.

Any suggestions or advice please?
Posted: 7/28/2009 9:15:19 AM
From reading the forums, it seems to be a problem for a lot. Of course a small percent seem to get tons of mail. I think it depends on where you live and how far away the guys are that you are contacting (I don't think there is 100 guys in my area I would even want to contact).

Don't take it personally. Remember it is online and you aren't looking for the masses just the 1 right one.

I think your age range is fine, You might try new pixs, just to change it up and see what happens.

Goodluck with your search!

exes and on-line dating sites
Posted: 7/27/2009 8:23:19 PM
I don't see the problem with friemds with exs but cybersex with them? If you have plans on getting married, I would guess you have been with him for awhile, so do they know?

Insecure, I don't think so, more like curiousty. which we knows what it does to the cat.

And if you don't want to marry him, then where is the problem? And what do you want? It takes two to say I do.
