is a pic in a bathing suit porn
Posted: 9/19/2007 6:44:15 PM
The person that said that photo is porn or like porn is nuts! That picture is the least revealing bathing suit photo I have ever seen! It is neither revealing or suggestive, and no, it doesn't even remotely make me think you are looking for sex. He must have been just an idiot trying to push your buttons.

Also, there is nothing wrong with someone posting a bathing suit pic, although my speedo shot on my profile is somewhat revealing...just kidding.

Saw My Wedding ring On My X Husbands New Girlfriend!
Posted: 9/18/2007 3:30:12 PM
That is just palin tacky! I would bet anything that she has no idea that she is wearing your band. Tell your Ex you saw it, then see what he says. I bet you he gets terrified that you will tell the new wifey...lol. Of course, he will just deny it up and down and say you are trying to cause trouble if she finds out!

New Hampshire/Massachusetts Get Together Interest?

Hey, we are running out of summer here!! What do you think of Canobie Lake on a Saturday in September? According to their website, they won't have week hours and are open from 11:00 to 10:00 on Saturday, Sept. 8th. After that, the hours are far less. People can decide whether to go somewhere after. How about September 8th? anyone interested?

One for all the guys here....
Posted: 7/30/2007 6:57:20 AM
The whole opening doors, holding the seat when a woman is sitting, opening the car door thing is par for the course. I do that for my sister (thanks, Dad).

I like to do things that she finds during the day to make her smile, like a little note or in her purse that she finds half way through work telling her that dinner is waiting with a bottle of wine. Flowers are always good, but pretty standard. Just doing things that she didn't expect you to do works. When I feel that way about someone, i want to do those things.

Some guys get a bum rap these days, and quite a few deserve it!

Well, a couple of things. I think we need to generate interest in this. I don't think all that many people actually go into the forums, or go in very often to find this thread. What does everybody think about putting a line or two into the beginning of our profiles asking people to put their two cents in if they are interested. A little advertising never hurt! I have talked to some people in other places and they have things like this once a month and they work out great, according to them. (Ottawa, Orlando, and New York, anyway).

I have no problem going anywhere, but I am at a loss in terms of decent locations in the area we would probably be talking about, i.e. between Boston and NH or in NH. So, put those ideas out there, peeps!

We have to come to a concensus on where to meet and we should probably put a time frame on it or we may be talking about it next year! This thread started in February!

There is always labor Day weekend! What do you all think?

Well, while it would be a POF thing in terms of people going, it doesn't necessarily have to be a singles thing only.

If it does work out as you hope, you could always bring him!!

Anybody have any ideas? I'm a little lost in the area that we would probably be talking about meeting in.

Why would guys write just to tell you they don' like your profile
Posted: 6/25/2007 7:34:28 PM
Obviously, someone who would write just to tell you they DON'T like your profile just need to get a life. I would think that they would probably have trouble getting beyond one date with someone as well. As others have stated, just block them and move on.

OP, your profile is just great, by the way!!

Any men over 35 seriously looking to get married?
Posted: 6/25/2007 7:28:35 PM
I think that men are like women in that they are cautious if they already had a failed marriage. I am not averse to gewtting married again at all, but I am not going to get married again just for the sake of getting married. I would love to be married again, it just has to be with the right woman. As with all of us here, we can't seem to find them (yet). Some people (both men and women) seem to be interested in "serial dating", but I would much prefer to settle down with the right woman rather than go through the whole dating thing forever (stressful, sometimes).
As far as the single / never married men go, I can't attest to them.

So, we have to figure out what range / distance we are talking about in order to come up with a middle point and activity (i.e. bowling, barbecue, etc.). Any ideas on that?

When a guy says Would you like to be held is that an invitation for..
Posted: 6/5/2007 5:11:47 PM
I think it can mean two things. Good luck figuring it out. When i like a girl, I love holding her and feeling that closeness.

However, since women need to feel close in order to have sex, then he may be trying to use it as a precursor to make you feel comfortable with him.

Then again, he could just be making his "move".

Is it rude to IM someone out of the Blue?

Do men really mind dating women with children??
Posted: 4/5/2007 2:07:02 PM
I love the guys that say that they don't mind dating a woman as long as they don't involve you with them. While I don't think that children should be introduced to someone until there appears to be a long term relationship developing, you are basically stating that you don't really want to be involved in their lives.

In other words, you only want to sleep with them but don't want any complications. Nice, very nice. I am surprised you even get a date.

caught him staring....?
Posted: 4/4/2007 4:09:22 PM
It means he was checking you out, and then got embarrassed that you caught him. I do this from time to time. Has to do with being somewhat shy. As an earlier poster said, just let him catch you looking at him and then smile. If he is interested, then you will know it. You may not know it right away, but he will probably start paying a little attention to you in order to see how you respond. You just have to make sure you respond.

As to some of the IDIOTS that have responded to your post, have a little class guys, will you.

How many times have you been in love?
Posted: 3/27/2007 3:21:44 PM
I have been in love twice. There were a few times that I thought I coulod have been only to find that that person was not who I thought they were, but I guess that happens or most of us wouldn't be here, right?

So, two times too many but waiting for the next!

Would you want to know.....
Posted: 3/27/2007 3:13:35 PM
Yes, I most certainly would want to know. Someone who could father or bear a child and then ignore the existence of that child would not be of the character that I would choose to associate. Could anyone that has such little feeling or regard for their own children really have any true feeling or regard for you?

Do men really mind dating women with children??
Posted: 3/23/2007 4:04:27 PM
I really think it depends on how serious the guy is in finding a relationship and working on a relationship, as well as the situation the guy is in. If he has no responsibilities and doesn't know how to handle them, then he becomes selfish when the woman can't spend the attention on him. It depends on the level of patience that a guy is willing to put into the relationship.

I think that men with children understand that the kids would always come first, as the man's children should come first as well. At the beginning of a relationship, I don't believe that the man or woman should even meet at first, until that relationship looks like it is or may be going somewhere. Otherwise you will end up reaqlly confusing the kids.

Although some men (and women) have the patience and understanding to survive a relationship until everyone involved is ready to be integrated, I think the majority of men have "been there and done that" in that they know and understand the trials and tribulations of dating as a single parent.

I am not saying that women with children should only date men with children at all, I am just staing that a man that is or has been in a similar situation as the woman may have more patience, understanding, and commitment to stay around long enough to see if the relationship is viable. I am sure there are childless men out there that could persevere, though.

I myself have no problem dating a woman with children, but I am looking for a relationship rather than dating, so it depends on what the guy wants, too.

OK, well now I am generally confused. Quite a few say that it is rude outright, some say it's OK unless it's creepy or not an attempt at cyber sex (and what the hell is cyber sex, really?)

I think it's safe to say that I will probably answer most that people send to me, while e-mailing to see if it is OK to IM them. The last thing I am is a creep (nor did anyone call me one) and the last thing I want is for someone to mistakenly think I am.

Ok, so the concensus is that it is somewhat rude. Again, I really don't care. I just check out the profile and either accept or decline, or sometimes I just accept.

I just don't want to pester someone that I am intersted in contacting when a simple message asking to IM sometime would be more polite. I appreciate everybody's input.

Poisongirl, you mean that you get IM's from guys just looking for sex or erotic chat? Now there is some low class guys. Do you ladies get a lot of that here?

Several people have IM'd me out of the blue and I don't mind, but I feel to do so uninvited would be viewed as intrusive or rude. I know that some people have different settings to receive IM's if they choose to receive them at all, but if they are an IM user, does that mean it's OK to just try to IM them or is it bad form? Or am I just being a putz?

Hey good rating system. I agree. A lot of the pictures that are posted don't even show what the person looks like. Put it out there and rate them on honesty and courage.

Girls don't fight fair!!
Posted: 10/31/2006 4:45:16 PM
The way I see it, its a maturity thing, but not just with women. Men either pretend their hurt, or snap at the woman. Women snap or cry when the maturity level of one or both partners isn't there or if they (the man or the woman) is manipulative. If any arguement gets to raised voices, then taking a break from the discussion is the way to go.
Half my life ago, I used to use the "I'm hurt" routine in order to forestall an arguement, but I grew up. Now I realize that a disagreement talked out reasonably is healthy for a relationship (words of wisdom from the guy that isn't in a relationship, right?).
The raised voices and crying thing is over the top and resulted from something hurtful being said, which is beyond the scope of a healthy disagreement, or manipulation, which is immaturity. As I said, guys do it too, in other ways.

did women kill chivalry? what do we need to do to bring it back?
Posted: 10/30/2006 3:41:02 PM
I don't think chivalry is dead, but it has taken a beating in year's past. I was brought up with chivalry (or just plain decent manners, as some have said), but a few times I have actually offended some women when I opened the car door for them or pulled their chair out at a restaurant. It hasn't stopped me from doing these things, and I would hold a door open for either a man or a woman, but you do have to kind of feel it out these days. Some women do appreciate these things, and quite frankly, some are surprised when you do open the car door for them. I've never looked at it in the "weaker" sex context, just as a sign of respect for someone you were interested in enough to go out with. However, I did have one woman tell me there was nothing wrong with her arm when I opened the door for her. For this and several other reasons, we just didn't fit.

I think the whole women's lib thing, combined with the changes in our society and the lack of manners being taught at hom,e has diminished "chivalrous behavior" significantly, but I think it has more to do with a lack of manners. Some guys do think that women can't have it both ways, though. I have a few friends like that. Have you ever been on a double date where you run out to pull the car up to the door and the other guy looks at you like you are nuts?

Would you take back a cheater?
Posted: 10/30/2006 3:25:51 PM
There is just no way that I could learn to trust someone again. What are you going to do, ask them where they are all the time or just wonder where they are all the time? Either way you are set up to fail in the relationship. Also I am a firm believer in once a cheater, always a cheater.

I find the generalization of men on this thread to be extremely offensive. I am 40 years old, I have great respect for women, people in general, and myself. To say that all the men on this site is incorrect. To say that all the women on this site are looking for LTR's and are not interested in just sex is incorrect.

I have never had a one night stand in my life. I have never slept with a woman that I haven't known for at least three months. I have never slept with a woman from this site, anmd although I have a very healthy (and grossly unfulfilled) sex drive, I am neither overly horny nor a pervert. I am not talking to any of you ever again. LOL

Good luck with that! I have been cheated on TWICE in my last two LTR's. I could not and would not ever even conswider trusting them or taking them back. The first is irrelevant now as it happened over 8 years ago. The last happened a year ago. We were friends for eight years, lovers and best friends for the last five of that, engaged to be married and I heard her making plans with a guy for an entire weekend when she told me she was staying with her mother because she didn't feel well. I heard her on the phone, called her on it, she denied it, disappeared for the weekend, and came crawling back with all the apologies in the world. I said exactly 14 words to her that day that are engraved in my memory. Since that day I have seen her about 10 or 12 times because of work, and I haven't spoken a word to her and never will. My trust was betrayed on so many levels, that I couldn't trust her with a quarter, let alone my heart.

Good luck to you, but just that he still speaks to you is more than you could expect from me. No offense and non - judgemental, just sayin'.

Why do Men get to choose?
Posted: 8/14/2006 8:11:00 AM
See, now this had me so upset that I made about 100 typos. Now women who don't like men who make typos aren't going to choose me.

They shouldn't be able to NOT choose me just because I made some typos. Why should they get to choose?

Yes, I am being sarcastic!

Posted: 8/14/2006 8:06:18 AM
The OP makes it sound as if someone could have the right to choose taken away? What a silly question. Why do men get to chhse? For the sam reason women get to choose? We rae creatures of free will. How would you suggest that the right to choose be taken away? Are you suggesting that a woman with a few pounds on her should just grab and take the man of her choice. Role reversal from the cavemen days, hey! I think we call that rape these days.

I don't understand how the op 1. thinks that "men get to choose" 2. "that women don't" 3. that there is a way around it. IT IS FREE CHOICE AND PERSONAL PREFERENCE. I carry about 20 extra. Would I love a thin sexy girl to say Hi how are you? (some have, very nice people). Yes, I would. But if I were attracted to them and they were not attracted to me, should I then ask why they have the right to choose? WOW!!!!!!!!!

Does having sex when you meet for the first time ruin a chance for a real relationship?
Posted: 8/5/2006 1:53:52 AM
You can ignore my advice because I am really not qualified to give it! i am a horrible dater. I have never dated anyone that I didn't know for awhile, so it doesn't apply to me really. I don't think it would ruin a relationship, but I would be wondering how often she has done this. Not being sexist in saying that after I SLEPT WITH HER on the first date, because, to be honest, I don't see myself doing that either.

You all talk about stalking like it's a bad thing....lol. I actually am fairly new to POF, so I have found most forums by reading posts shown in women's profiles. The topic would strike me and I would look into the forum and post or not.

These are all open forums and free to use to post opinion or advice. Unless specifically refering to an individual poster, I don't know why people would get paranoid about it.

When a woman says a man must be financially secure. What does it tell you about her?
Posted: 6/9/2006 5:48:53 PM
Hi everyone,

I think a lot of things apply to this question and that both men and women are going to interpret it as their individual experience perceives it. There are a lot of gold digging women out there, as well as men. I have several female friends with husbands / boyfriends that had inconsistent work records, and they just got sick of supporting them.

It also, however, reflects on issues that two people contemplating meeting each other don't know. As an example, if financially stable means a heavy bank account to a particular woman, but the man is divorced and paying child support as well as maintaining his household for his children, then he may not appear "fianacially stable", but is certainly "financially responsible."

I almost feel that the question is anathema to this type of setting in that the question and the answer can mean so many different things depending on life experience to each individual.

Is that too deep?
