Dinner on the first date? Posted: 6/17/2009 5:07:01 PM
Do like me......Eat real fast. Then if you still can't stand to be at the table with them, go to the men's room. I've never met anyone I that I can't stand to be with but one time. I was truthful that I didn't think it would work out, but I did stay until we finished eating and just moved on.

When is it cheating? Posted: 6/17/2009 4:59:15 PM
I agree with your post. I am divorced after a long marriage. We are civil to each other. It would be hard not to be with grown kids living in the area. I wouldn't re-marry her or anything stupid like that, but I see nothing wrong with talking.....as long as it doesn't go any further. In my opinion, Cheating is when you do something with someone that you wouldn't dare do in front of your present partner.

Consider yourself to be one lucky person. Definitely sounds like a screw loose or at the worst, an ewscapee from a mental institution. Count your blessings and move on.

Question Concerning Body Type, Smoking or Religion? Posted: 6/17/2009 4:37:34 PM
The part about smoking is very important to me. I used to smoke. I started when I was 14 years old and quit 22 years ago. Until I quit, I never realized how nasty the habit was. Clothes stink all the time and have little holes burned in them and kissing a smoker is like licking an ashtray. Body type I think depends on the person to some extent. Personality has a lot to do with that too. I believe if you "connect" with someone it becomes of less importance. Now, if you have a body like one of the Krispy-Kreme Doughnut Calendar Girls, there might be a "tiny" problem connecting. As for religion, I am a Christian and attend church, and even sing on the Praise Team there because I enjoy the music(Contemporary Christian), but I'm not about to push my beliefs on someone else.

Whats the longest you would wait for sex? Posted: 7/23/2007 8:48:28 PM
I mean, if you base a relationship on sex, what is going to happen when you are old and can't have sex or the sex gets boring? I don't know about other old people, but none of that has happened to me. there is nothing boring about it and as long as I keep eating Louisiana Viagra(Raw Oysters), I reckon I'll be able to "perform" the act.

Dating long distance but both still on POF...? Posted: 7/23/2007 8:27:28 PM
Hey QT Girl. I presume you are no longer seeing this guy as I see this on your profile. "I am looking for someone with a positive outlook, driven, unpretentious, confident, athletic, attractive, forward, active, enjoys sex, sharp wit, and most important, enjoys life and wakes up smiling each day..No aspiring shrinks.." That doesn't sound to me like someone commited to someone else, or is this what you copied off of his profile. If you and he claim to be serious about one another, it seems to me that you would at least change your profiles to indicate that you both are "taken".

It can happen to men too - no photo should mean no date !! Posted: 7/17/2007 9:47:56 PM
I had a terrible experience with a "woman"(I use the term loosely) who had someone else's picture posted. Would you believe Linda Carter's as in Wonder Woman. When I asked about it she swore it was her and that she had been mistaken for Linda Carter many times.......right!!! Maybe if she had lost 150 lbs and dyed her hair had her teeth fixed, and cleaned the dirt out from underneath her fingernails, there might have been a very slight resemblance in the fact that they were both female. I then dated a woman without a picture. She didn't look like her description of herself at all. I had asked her out to dinner, so I drove 70 miles, picked her up and went to dinner. I told her I didn't think it would work out with us and drove home. When I got home, I had an e-mail from her that was a little on the nasty side, so I wrote her back and told her not to contact me again. That really inflamed her because she called me an old fat cheap bast**d(this after I spent over $100 for dinner) and said she knew I had only wanted to date her to get some sex.....right, I wouldn't have done her with your's. I will never, ever date another person who does not have an honest and up to date photo. If I go to meet them and find that they lied, I'm doing a 180 and getting the heck out of Dodge without ever even saying bye.

If she only had one Condom, a potential relationship could have been saved. Posted: 7/16/2007 6:43:00 AM
You friend regardless of where he is from is being a hiprocrate. He was going to have sex with this woman and at the same time he had no respect for her. He needs to get his priorities in order. He can't have it both ways.... You hit the nail on the head Starline. I guess he was just going to "use" her like he would any sheep or goat, which he also will have no respect for after the "act". I think this lady waitress is very smart to have the protection handy and also very lucky that she didn't hook up with this guy from an entirely opposite culture.

Canada's Healthcare System Receives a Major Blow Posted: 7/12/2007 4:35:06 PM
Oh please. The U.S. has no universal health care. In the U.S., you must either be able to pay for (incredibly expensive) health insurance, or you must have a job Absolutely untrue. All you have to do is go to any of the hospitals around here and go into the emergency room where you will see all kinds of people, the poor, the illegal immigrants, and yes, even the middle and upper class being treated. Sure, the middle and upper class have insurance(mostly) and the hospital gets paid by the insurance, but I guarantee you they aren't being paid by the poor and illegals. Heck in Canada, it is my understanding that a poor illegal can forget about getting any healthcare, or probably in any other country. Correct me if I'm wrong. For the life of me, I cannot figure out how some people think that health coverage run by an "inefficient government bureaucracy" is better. God, all governments are so wasteful. I'm now on Medicare, and if I suspect a doctor is taking advantage of the system, they will be reported. I have a flying buddy who is a doctor and he said the problem is that in a lot of cases, what Medicare will pay will not cover his actual costs when considering office help, nurses, building rent, and of course malpractice insurance. I don't think there are any easy answers to the healthcare dilema facing not just the U.S and Canada, but the other western style nations.

Universal Healthcare in Canada Posted: 7/12/2007 4:00:23 PM
I'm not as smart as all you folks that know so much about the so-called free National Healthcare in other countries, but I read this the other day, and it might put some of the costs in perspective. Like I said, I'm not smart enough to know as much about it as other folks, so believe what you like. Behind Our Healthcare Costs We are blindly accepting the statement that health-care costs in the United States are twice per capita as anywhere else in the industrialized world. However, no one is challenging this figure with meaningful questions. A news article claims, “We spend more, but our health care is falling behind.” We have breast implants, sex-change operations, vans with wheelchair lifts, and multilingual interpreters in clinics and hospitals. All are health-care costs. Would France airlift a suspect injured in a high-speed police pursuit to a trauma center? We do, and that’s health-care dollars. Does England do bone-marrow transplants on 90 year old patients? We do. In Germany, do hospitals have full time professionals who do nothing but make sure that hundreds of standards of care are met daily, and that risks of lawsuits are minimized? We do? Neither Canada, nor Mexico allow illegal immigrants to move across the border to receive free health care. We do! Presidential candidate/malpractice attorney John Edwards made a fortune suing doctors and hospitals . His $400.00 haircuts and Wal-Mart sized house are paid for with diverted health-care dollars. That doesn’t happen in Cuba. Maybe we spend a lot more because we demand a lot more. San Francisco Chronicle 07-11-2007

scent of a woman.....or man Posted: 7/6/2007 8:57:32 PM
I like the natural scent of a clean woman. If she wears perfume, I like just a faint smell of Chanel #5. I like to wear either a little dab of Brut or one of Wings. Just a very little of either though and not at the same time.. Some of the Rednecks in this area smell like they dumped a whole bottle of Old Spice on them. You can smell them coming from a half a mile away. That is some kind of yucky smelling crap I think, but I guess any of them would be bad like that if overdone.

a bad first date after meeting someone off line Posted: 7/1/2007 6:24:22 PM
To answer your question OP, I have had one terrible date. The lady(and I use that term very loosely) not only smelled like she might not have had a bath in several weeks, but had yellow teeth, with one missing in the front, and dirt under her fingernails. Probably had dirty underwear too, but no way was I going to find out, even after she told me that she had "feelings" for me. I did buy her lunch though and then told her I didn't think we had anything in common. Sounds like maybe we had a date with the same woman. Oh, I should have known that something was wrong because she had a picture of Wonder Woman on her profile(on another site) and when I asked about that, she told me that her friends told her she looks like Wonder Woman.

Take some advise from an old experienced fa*t. Don't send the letter. Back off. You are scaring her. Once you click "Send", it is too late to change your mind. What will you accomplish by sending it, other than chasing her farther away and showing her that you are immature.

I guess the Pregnant Mares' Urine is the active ingredient in Premarin. I can't believe it has all these inactive ingredients too: • calcium phosphate tribasic • calcium sulfate anhydrous (white tablet only) • calcium sulfate • carnauba wax • cellulose • glyceryl monooleate • lactose • magnesium stearate • methylcellulose • pharmaceutical glaze • polyethylene glycol • stearic acid • sucrose • talc • titanium dioxide Seems to me if the ingredient is inactive, how come they don't just use water?

Moving on... Posted: 6/7/2007 5:58:29 PM
I married my high school sweetheart when I was 18. We were togetherfor 46 years and she left for what she thought was a "greener pasture". It so totally devastated me that I thought I would die. I cried and cried and cried some more. Eventually there weren't any more tears to cry. I started dating again and having fun. She now has left her "greener pasture". Nope, I don't want her back. I didn't realize how unhappy I had been for most of those 46 years now that I think about it. I have been much happier for the last 7 years as the shock of her leaving wore off. My neighbor told me not to let her know how happy she made me by leaving because she might come back. Anyway, time will heal a broken heart OP. Get out and date and have fun. You will soon forget about her and she will just be a little blip somewhere in the back of your brain.

Death Ok for Child Rapist? Posted: 6/4/2007 10:06:42 AM
Yeah....your post was a shining example of what civilized is. Hooray for you la mom from a fellow resident. Where in the heck did the "civilized weirdo" from Ireland come from talking about something he know nothing about. If the US Supreme Court does throw out his death sentence, I hope he will be re-sentenced to life at hard labor cutting cane in the sugar cane fields at Angola (La state prison farm) without the possibility pardon or parole. As soon as some of the other inmates find out what he's there for, he will pay for his crime.

Breaking up via email - is it the new way to end it? Posted: 6/2/2007 12:50:20 PM
I had that happen to me too. Three years ago, I was dating this beautiful woman. We dated for a little over 6 months and spent every weekend together either at her place or mine and had even made plans to get married. One Sunsay I left for the 150 mile drive home and when I got home there was an e-mail from her that she was ending the relationship, but still wanted to be friends. Lying Bi**h was seeing someone else on weekdays when she wasn't at work. Like how do you be friends with someone that does that?

Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 5/13/2007 7:48:28 PM
I did once about two years ago, and it was the absolute worst. This woman had rotten teeth, dirt under fingernails, and smelled kind of bad too. After that, I swore I would never do something stupid like that again. Well, a few months ago, I received an e-mail from a woman, who by her description was younger than her age, athletic, and all her friends tell her she is beautiful. By the way, if you see this in their profile, be suspicious(in fact do not walk, but run away), like her friends are going to tell her she is ugly or something????) Anyway, she sounded so good I decided to take a chance. So help me, it will never and I do mean absolutely never ever happen again. This woman looked about 25 years older than her actual age, her athletic body had developed a hump in the back like you see in a lot of pictures of wicked witches and her friends are liars. Nope, ain't happening again.

New gun law in Florida Posted: 4/23/2007 7:04:27 AM
There was no proposal to be able to shoot someone for touching the door handle of your car. Some guy shot a guy from his bedroom window who was actually breaking into his car out in the driveway and he was arrested and charged. I don't remember if he was charged with second degree murder or man slaughter, but he was arrested. The guy he shot had a rap sheet a mile long and there were some people who were calling for a law to allow you to shoot someone who was trying to burglarise your car, but no proposal was ever introduced in the Louisiana Legislature to make it a law. Just because it made headlines doesn't necessarily make it true.

As it stands now it sounds as bad as the Nawlins law I heard they were trying to pass (you could legally shoot anyone that so much as touched your car door handle, and that is a bit overkill since everyone that toouches your door handle is not always a carjacker). Not so. Where do you come up with that crap Looney? You said you heard it. Who did you hear it from?

New gun law in Florida Posted: 4/21/2007 8:21:52 PM
In Louisiana we also have a concealed weapon law. To get a permit to carry a concealed weapon, you must apply to the State Police, pass all kinds of background checks, Federal and State and attend a course of instruction which is classroom work and then time on the shooting range and it is not cheap. It also has to be renewed with more classroom time and shooting range time. We already had the right to have a weapon in our automobiles as your auto is considered an extension of your home. There isn't anything to prevent you from carrying an UNconcealed weapon here. Of course, even with a permit you can't carry a concealed or unconcealed weapon into a church, school, government office, bar room, etc., etc. As far as shooting someone, you just can't go around shooting people here or in Florida or anywhere else in the U.S. as our Canandian neighbors are mistakingly accusing us of. The reason for carrying a weapon is for personal protection and if you shoot someone, it damn well better had been justified or you will be in jail and on trial for murder or at least manslaughter. I know one thing, if I went to New Orleans, with the crime problem they have there, I would want a weapon for protection. By the way Canadians, we can't just shoot someone for trespassing either. If they break in to your house, it is justified, but if they are on your front porch and haven't started breaking in yet, you can't.

Never, never again will I meet someone without a picture The first time it happened to me, I swore I would never, ever again meet someone for a date without seeing their picture first. Well, I lied to myself. I did it again, and I swear and promise myself if I ever do it again, I will kill myself. These women described themselves as being so attractive and so beautiful and appealing......NOT!!!! They say the only reason they haven't put up a picture is because they don't know how to or they don't have a current one or some nonsense like that. These were worse than the ones who post the 20 year old pictures and then when you go to meet them, you don't even recognize them. Nope, isn't going to happen. A picture first or no date and I really mean it this time.

I just wanted to say that I think that it should be mandatory that all profiles have a face picture. I know alot of people are going to disagree with this, but really, what are you hiding?? I agree with you completely techchick. Maybe it could be fixed so that those who are so worried that their wife or cohorts at work will see their picture that the picture is the 2nd or later picture and you wouldn't see it until the ad was opened. For those folks that say they live in a small town and worry that people will see your picture and say something to you, ask them why the heck they were looking on a dating site.

If you just can't stand it and want him to know you are still around, e-mail him a funny joke or something like that. For God's sake, don't call him. If he doesn't call in a week or so, call if you must, but if he doesn't call he probably really isn't interested.

The original question was: "tatoos on a womanturn on or turn off" Why do some women have to bash someone for stating their honest opinion? A very small tatoo of something like a flower just above the crack of the butt or on the side of one boob is pretty darn sexy, but I still would prefer none. I think that is sexier.

Secret to good crab cakes anyone? Posted: 1/28/2007 8:02:58 PM
Maryland is for crabs. Yep, Maryland is known for crabs. I don't even want to take a guess of how many crates of live Lake Ponchartrain(Louisiana)Blue Crabs we hauled on our airplane when I was flying airline up to Baltimore. Every trip out of New Orleans the trucks would come with crabs for Baltimore. I guess they are so much in demand there that they have to import them from other states to meet the demand. The guy in Maryland said the Lake Ponchartrain Crabs become Chesapeak Bay Crabs when they get to where they were going. I'm going to try a couple of these crab cake recipes.....they sound delicious. Do they have crab burgers in Maryland? They're delicious too.

Would you sign a prenuptial agreement? Posted: 1/23/2007 2:19:08 PM
Shouldn't be getting married of you don't know the person well enough to marry them I can't agree with you funny girl. I was married at 18 and stayed married for 45 years. She left for greener pastures and took me to the cleaners. I am just about living in poverty while she has married a dude with money and living "high on the hog" I am retired and she took 1/2 of my retirement also. My kids made me promise them that if I ever got married again I wouldn't do it without a pre-nup. It doesn't mean I don't love the lady I am marrying, it just means that if she doesn't love me enough to not seek greener pastures that she won't take me to the cleaners also. Remember too, a pre-nup is two ways.....it can protect the assets of both parties.

All I have to say is be very careful. A lady friend of mine met a guy on one of the pay sites and agreed to meet hiom. He was a super smooth talker and convinced her to drive with him to a restaurant. She did, but they never made it to the restaurant and she was raped. This beast also gave her a STD. She reported it and then found out he was a sexual predator and had raped and sodomized several women. He was sentenced to prison just recently. She says she wished she had done a background check on this creep before meeting him for a date, as there was a record of previous arrests for sex crimes. As I said in the beginning.......please, know for sure who you are meeting.

Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all? Posted: 1/6/2007 6:26:04 PM
I've met 4 ladies and a beast on different dating sites. All had pictures. The problem was that 3 of them had pictures posted that in no way resembled what they looked like. Even though 2 of them had posted pictures that had to have been taken at least 15 years ago I was polite and talked to them and finally told them I didn't think it was going to work for us. If I had gotten to the restaurant we met at after they had, there is no way I would have recognized them; they recognized me. One's picture was of a very beautiful slim woman who turned out to be a super humongusly large woman with tree trunk legs. The other had just changed in appearance a bunch since her picture was taken. The third one(the beast) had taken someone elses picture and pasted it on their body, like I wasn't going to notice. There is no way I could have recognized her if I hadn't known what kind of car she was driving. This beast was missing teeth, had dirty fingernails, and could have used a bath. I told her I didn't appreciate her dishonesty and left. Two of the ladies were very sweet and I dated one for 2 years and the other for about a year. In the case of the three liars, they might as well not had pictures posted. They may have done better if they hadn't, because I don't think anyone appreciates a liar. I'm no jewel, but I do look like my pictures.

how long does it take to stop hurting? Posted: 1/3/2007 7:41:25 PM
Hey lloyd66, I feel your pain. i foolishly got married at 17 to my high school sweetheart. She left me after 45 years of marriage for another man. I finally divorced her a year later. I was so devastated and torn up inside 4 or 5 months and the pain was going away finally. Then I met another lady and my focus turned to her. I dated her for about a year and realized that I hadn't really loved my wife for a long time. She had become a real batch and I guess it was because she didn't love me either. Then I met the lovely woman and fell so deeply in love with her with a love I didn't even realize was possible. She started cheating and cut our relationship short after 6 or 7 months. We lived in different towns about 140 milkes apart, but had talked of getting married and all that stuff. was so devastated, that I actually thought about suicide and then realized she wasn't worth killing myself over. It took me a couple of years to get over her. I am now free and have just met a girl who I think was meant for me and me for her. Besides lustilly loving this gal, I really, really like here too. I guewss all I can tell you is to hang in there. It will absolutely get better. By the way, I see her and her new husband every year at Christmas as we have a giant family get-together at one of my son's house. i actually feel sorry for him now. You will wake up one morning and say to yourself: "Why in the he!! was I so upset over losing her. She wasn't worth it.

How to deal with heartbreak of ending a marriage? Posted: 12/27/2006 8:27:31 PM
Married to a wonderful woman for 24 years...many good qualities about her...nice, easy going, beautiful, looks after herself well, best mom in the world, always know where she is, and loves me unconditionally....great, isn't it... I am just wondering what the hell you married her for? There must have been something about her that made you take that step. Man, I think you have a problem with yourself. I think before you break up this marriage that you and her get some counciling. You must have loved her at one time despite all the negatives you have said about her that you said she had growing up on the farm. I hope you don't go through with this until after trying counciling. If you do, I hope she cleans your plow.

Dating a man who is 22 years older than me? Posted: 11/23/2006 4:24:46 PM
22 years older than you... he may as well be your father, youre disgusting, go get someone your age. You don't even know what you are talking about. I know a couple where there was 39 years difference in their ages. They were married, happily, I might add for almost 30 years and were truly in love. I know, because they were my mom & dad.

Whats the Best Accent you've hear that you love... and why Posted: 11/16/2006 7:44:27 AM
For me, nothing is sweeter than the beautiful accent of a south Louisiana Cajun girl. What a turn-on.

Man survives walk into airplane propeller Posted: 11/14/2006 1:59:24 PM
"Nope, don't see that every day. In fact, this was probably the best chance I ever had of seeing something like this. Course, he's from Kleefeld. It's the Manitoba equivalent to uh...Paris, Nebraska." I agree that you don't see it every day, but it happens more often than you hear about in the news. Back when we were flying piston engine airliners, a baggage buster walked into the spinning prop on a DC-6. He didn't make it in one piece. Usually what happens with light planes is that a passenger will get out of the plane and for some unknown reason walk to the front into the spinning propeller blades. Those things are like dull machetes whirling around at 600 to 700 rpm at idle and maybe up to 3200 rpm at full throttle. Like Sesquipedalian said, another candidate for the Darwin Award. A worse one happened a few years back in Atlanta, where a baggage buster was walking across the ramp in front of a taxiing L-1011 Jumbo Jet and tripped and fell and was squashed by the main gear wheels. Bad stuff can happen when you work around any kind of machinery, not just airplanes.

Sorry, I just don't find you attractive Posted: 11/9/2006 7:03:32 AM
Well how about being with someone for almost 8 months and he lives for you for a month and a half and then all of a sudden tells you hes not attracted to you Now that hurts. But during the whole time telling you that you are sexy and beautiful best thing that ever happened to them figure that one. Confused yes lol That exact same thing happened to me two years ago. We had dated for 6 months and were making plans to get married including planning the reception and all of a sudden she wrote me an e-mail that she wanted to end our relationship. She wouldn't answer phone calls or reply to my e-mails. Found out afterwards that she had been "hunting" on a couple of dating sites and had found someone else she "loved" more. I saw her mother one day and asked how she was doing and found out that she has broken up with him and also two others since our breakup. Talk about hurt. I was devastated because she was the love of my life. A few months ago, I met a lady online and when we met in person, I did not find her attractive at all. She was very nice though and we went out to eat as was planned. During the meal she said "You know, I don't think we have very much in common". I told her that I agreed. We are still e-mail buddies and I appreciated her honesty. As the old saying goes: "One man's junk is another man's treasure". There are plenty of very nice people that I am not attracted to in a romantic way. Whatever you do, be honest and gentle when you tell them.

How do you choose between your head and your heart? Posted: 11/8/2006 8:36:02 AM
The one that turns you on is a loser in my opinion: Didn't graduate from high school, jumps from job to job, etc. Use your head this time. If the other guy doesn't grow on you, dump him too and start over. Remember, the lust will die in time anyway, and there better be something else substantial to keep the relationship going. I think you really know what you have to do. Best of luck to you and I hope whatever decision you make is the right one for you.
