No smoking in car with minors Posted: 1/31/2008 8:43:27 AM
WOW, after this string has gone on for so long, it is amazing to me to see the opinions of everyone here.. It is almost split completely down lines of smokers and non-smokers. From what I have read, the "smokers" live in denial or look for any article or hearsay to justify the fact they have the right to smoke anywhere they like, and the "non-smokers" are in total agreement with the law and agree that others should not be exposed to the stink or harmful fumes the Smoker tend to do without thinking simply because it is part of them and their make-up. I personally am a non-smoker, but there were more times than I could count that my parents (both of whom died of lung cancer, imangine that) would smoke in the car with all the windows rolled up. I can fully agree with the law, back then our parents did not know any better, but there is NO excuse for that kind of behavior now, but I still see it constantly. Sometimes you have to make a law for people that are either too inconsiderate or just don't care about anyone else but themselves, including their kids.

Do you think there should be laws against people who trick you into sexual encounters! Posted: 1/4/2008 9:25:20 AM
Bottom line here Welsh, there is already enough of a problem of women having regrets after a sexual encounter. Some are claiming rape, case in point Kobe Bryant, some bimbo, wanted to sleep with a high profile person and saw a chance to make money. If you make something like this a law, then all of a sudden you would have to have a written statement saying that you consented to a sexual encounter. Plus have to have a statement from the guy explaining all the stuff that was promised to you. If you are going to do that, it kind of takes the romance and spur of the moment lust that so often happens... Also: if you are going to go to that extreme, then you might as well get married first... Either you want physical contact or you don't, that is the chance all of us take, male and female, you don't think women lie, sneak and trick guys into getting what they want?

How do you know when a POF member posts a fake pic? Posted: 11/19/2007 10:07:25 AM
I have to agree with Dreadstalker here, I have never heard of anyone at POF setting up fake accounts, there would be no reason to do so, as they are free, Harmony, Match, AS, I can see them all doing it, amazing the emails you get when you are NOT a member vs. the ones you really get when you are a member.. From what I have heard.. I am not expecting much here, but sure have fun...And if something great should come of it, so much the better.

How do you know when a POF member posts a fake pic? Posted: 11/16/2007 3:28:52 PM
I recently saw a Woman putting up fake pics, I was looking at a profile and saw the same verbage, checked the pics they were all the same, different ages, different places they lived all over Southern California. So it is NOT just the men as one woman posted.. It goes both ways. I agree with her in trust your instincts, if you plan on meeting him then he will either have to own up to his lies, not show up or bail out... That may be the only way to know, good luck..

if i want to walk around the house naked all the time its my house and not you or any one has any right to say anything about it corase the draps are drawn. When you are running around naked you are not killing one else, especially someone that has no say so, such as a child.. Sure go ahead kill yourself, but why take your kids with you?

I totally agree with you. If someone wants to kill themselves by smoking that is their choice, but a captive child in the car has no choice, and is so not fair for them to be subjected to that at all. This is only one of many steps to protect the rest of us that don't want to die from someone else that has no regard for their own health. THANK YOU.

Can I have a pity party here? Posted: 10/12/2007 1:29:14 PM

I think she's one of those scams Posted: 10/9/2007 12:23:23 PM
Bottom line, if they ask for money, it is most likely a scam, if they are for real, they would understand if you don't send them any money, or would not ask for it.

Favorites List????? Posted: 10/3/2007 4:05:11 PM
Personally, sometimes I put people on my favorites list because of emailing someone that was looking for an intimate incounter without realizing it, and they have their email setting not allowing emails from other that did that, whether it is on purpose or accidental, you are trapped in the stigma forever, unless you want to make up another profile, I asked the moderator about this and got no response. What a surprise.

Beware of Russian bride scams Posted: 10/2/2007 11:30:13 AM
Unless you are out there scamming people and asking for money for your lost passport, no one is referring to you, we are trying to help others from being scammed by people claiming to be from Russia, Ghana, Nigeria, etc... If you need to get upset at someone, get upset at the scammers trying to steal from people that are looking for someone to care for, and these people are trying to take advantage of that fact.

Beware of Russian bride scams Posted: 10/2/2007 11:16:22 AM
When ever I get one of those scammers, I love to play along with them. I first warn them that if there Dad is still alive he should get out of the country quickly as it seems every male in Nigeria, Russia and Ghana are killed or die suddenly. It is an amazing feat.. Then the next thing I tell them is to make sure they know where their passport is, because I have heard that one too, they lose their passport and need money to get another one to come see me, because as like all of you, they are in "love" with me. I always warn them up front that the first time they ask me for money for and list a bunch of stuff they always say, oh no, I am not like that, don't you trust me, I am a "GOD" fearing woman and would NEVER do anything like that...So we all seem to have had to deal with these losers and there are many other scams going on. If someone wants to send you a check and have you send them money back, that is a scam too and the check is NO GOOD... Be careful there too, especially when selling a car, or anything else, even renting a house or apartment, if you the one renting it out to someone overseas, so many ways to try and steal your money, just be careful, smart and never send money to anyone, EVER.

My New Girlfriends Nuts! Posted: 5/16/2007 10:31:15 AM
It sounds to me like she is extremely insecure, so many very attractive women are. For many reasons. She may have been cheated on my an ex, and may be just so insecure that she is totally out of control. I feel if you do not put a stop to it now, it will eventually become a huge issue for your future happiness with her.. So I feel you need to talk to her open and honestly, tell her how you feel, why you feel this way and flat out tell her if she does not trust you, then you guys can't have a future together. So then that will allow her to think of her feelings and emotions. I would also mention to her before everything is brought up, that you are telling her this for your guys happiness and even if things don't work out for you two, it will help her for future relationships. She will drive everyone away worth anything if she keeps up that behavior... Good luck, and hopefully she will understand you are not going anywhere and she needs to chill out.

Is There a Man Out There That Can Give Me Advice? Posted: 4/24/2007 8:53:31 AM
The most important thing to do it, have him sign a paper showing how much he owes you, and also to stop giving him your money, he is going to disappear the minute the money stops coming in.. But for now you are just being taken advantage of, get the basics taken care of as I stated, then kick his ass to the curb.

So which sex is REALLY to blame for the death of chivalry? Posted: 2/2/2007 8:31:39 AM
I personally do all the stuff still, open the door if given the chance, I was just raised that way and I like doing nice things for the special person in my life, but I have dated women that just walk up, open the door and go on. So if I get the opportunity to do something nice for someone I always take the chance, if I am not given the chance I don't sweat it and just move on with the time together... But in answer to your question I would have to say it is the women's desicion to stop the opening of doors, and being kind, etc. Simply because they do not want to be considered the "weaker" sex. Though I never look at them that way they hold all the cards. They decide so much more than the men decide....We are always asking permission (if you are smart), they decide who, what, when, and where.....And that covers most things in life... Just my opinion, take it for what it is worth.

Dinner With the Wicked Witch of the West Posted: 12/20/2006 8:15:57 AM
Why does that not surprise me. And he wonders why he was picked on... OMG !!! If you are on the edge you have to expect that or stop being so sensitive or just go all the way over and get it done with.

I am sorry to say this, as it sounds mean and callous, I had to re-read your story three times then actually look at your profile to make sure you were not a woman. I mean 5" heels, a fanny pack, long "blue" nails, earrings. I can't condone her rude behavior, but I would have been thinking some of the same things, I just have enough class not to say them to your face and ruin your evening. I would have had a long talk with my friend (your date) later and ask her what is his problem? Is he going thru a mid-life crisis. Sorry for being so harsh, but from your description of yourself, WOW!!!

I just need to hear that I was right Posted: 12/1/2006 2:43:31 PM
Hey bud, I finally had to cut it off with a woman that I was so in love with, sometimes it is just best. If you can love once, you can love again, you just need to find someone that you are more compatible with. Sometimes no matter how much it hurts, you have to cut your loses and just move on. It was so hard for me to let her go, but I know in the long run it is best for both of us...For you it sounds like she wanted it all her way and was not willing to compromise at all, and wanted you to make at the changes. Totally unfair on her part, a relationship, ( a good one), is about both of you working to make it the best it can be for both of you....Never one sided.... Good luck, it will get easier as the days go by, and you will find a much better companion...

so pissed at men Posted: 11/21/2006 7:43:20 AM
Oh trust me, women can play the games with the best of them. I just yesterday had to let go of a woman I love simply because she is such a game player. So many totally mixed messages, so much hurt, I finally backed her into a corner and forced her to make a decision, knowing full well she was not ready to make it, only to stop the merry-go-round with her. What a painful relief. So I agree we all play games but some of us say what is on our mind and when you do, most people don't want to hear it, or are not ready for it. Anyway, enough on that, good luck in your adventure. And know we are not all like that. Carey

How did YOU move on? Posted: 11/10/2006 10:25:40 AM
Also not a lady, but I had that exact senerio happen to me about 6 months ago... I was doing the exact same thing, I could not eat, but knew I had to, could not sleep and when I did I dreamed of her... Songs would make me cry.... I decided the 15 lbs. I lost while depressed, I vowed not to gain back the weight and make at least something good come out of it. It has now been 6 months, and though the pain is still there deep down, it fades a little more each and everyday. She has made it abudantly clear that we will not ever have the chance to try again. She is a stubborn little so and so.... And it is so unfortunate, I learned so much from her, what I should and should not have done and will never make those mistakes again with anyone.......Oh Well... Good luck, but trust me, it takes time, but it does get better and you will find someone better down the road....

Is it Cheating when you are seperated and could you forgive? Posted: 11/9/2006 7:53:13 AM
Seperated usually means there is a time where you guys are not going to be together, whether it is for a month, a year, or until final details can be worked out. You know in your heart where you stand, and what feels right for you. If you think it is time to move on, you don't need anyones permission. He is most likely doing the same thing, man are generally more prone to move on easier and get physical with someone quicker than a woman would, so most likely he has already gone there, no matter what he says. So basically, if you want to and you are seperated, or on a break for that long it is time to move on, he will either decide he does not want to lose you or it will continue on to the end of the relationship. Good luck either way.

So Long POF!! Posted: 11/3/2006 9:07:15 AM
Well, unfortunately Miss "SweetnSpice" is gone. But she did bring up a good point before she left. As in any walk of life or situation, there will always be jerks that will ruin it for others. That goes for the guys and the gals too. Men are always complaining about not being able to understand woman, while woman complaining about not able to understand us. The bottom line is, we are very different and that is part of the fun and interesting parts we all love about each other. Don't let a few jerks out there ruin it for the ones that are truly nice guys, the ones that like to actually pick up their dates, take them out and return them safe and sound to their home. And just enjoy their company with the hopes that they will like each other and see where it can go from there. Anyway, Good luck "SweetnSpice", and good luck to the rest of us who are good people looking for something they have not been able to find yet.

I thought I was OK, then this happened... Posted: 10/30/2006 8:01:36 AM
Of course just guessing, but it sounds to me like he may have been looking for something else, not better, but just different. And may have been looking before you broke up with him. And he did not want to be the one dumped, even if he was driving you away. So he is either with the one that you saw and was probably seeing prior to that, or he would not have been so cold to you in front of her, or just starting seeing her and did not want to upset her. Anyway good luck to you and your future hunt. But if you feel it is best to move on, then it most likely is, not matter how much it may hurt, someone better for you will be right around the corner. And will be lucky to have you in his life.

Mum stopped CPR 'to have a smoke' Posted: 10/27/2006 7:56:24 AM
The part I find the saddest is so many people try so hard to have a child to love and care for and some idiot like this who has no respect for herself or her own child can punch them out like a pez dispenser. The stupidity of some people never cease to amaze me.

What Happened to being Asked Out on Real Dates? Posted: 10/20/2006 8:03:43 AM
I love to go out on a real date with a woman. The issues now-a-days is that because of so many freaks out there, that most women would rather meet you somewhere. There are afraid or need an easy out if it is not going well, even before they get to know you, they have a pre-concieved notion you are a creep, from so many others before. So I personally just go with the flow, if I ask someone out, I just play it by ear and see what they would like to do, meet, or have me pick them up and go out. I would have to say out of all the dates I have gone out on, almost all of the first dates have been "I'll meet you at ...... ", when the second or third date comes around then, I am able to actually go to pick them up and have a real date.

Married but looking .. a dilemma Posted: 8/10/2006 10:02:50 AM
I do know exactly what you mean, and don't let people that are on their moral high horse tell you how to live your life...I personally went thru the exact same situation very recently, looking for the affection and caring I was not getting at home. Just some closeness warm and compasion. The main thing you should do in my opinion is to try and talk it over with your spouse and tell him your thoughts and ideas, the most important thing you can do it to be honest with him. If you can't work it out with him, then maybe you should think about counceling, and if that does not work then you have to tell that you need to do something, open up your marriage or move on...However, don't look for approval here to do what you want to do anyway...You have to do what you feel is right for you...Don't let anyone else tell you how to live you life, remember we are all just offering you our opinions, use what you like and disregard the rest....Good luck, my situation so far has turned out well, but it has only been about 3-4 weeks....
