What's on your bucket list? Posted: 1/8/2008 8:46:14 PM
Hmmmmmm.... let's see... A weekend at Las Hadas in Manzanillo, Sailing in New Zealand, visit Macchu Pichu, swim with dolphins and manatees, drive through the Florida Keys, see the Everglades, go see killer whales in their native waters, and also see the gorillas in their native habitat before they're extinct. Just to name a few....

Clues that he's an online player .. Posted: 7/5/2007 12:33:13 AM
Well I certainly don't know an exact percentage but I think the number is high. But the longer one dates, the easier it is to spot them. Unfortunately I think its just prudent to not believe everything that someone says, and just take it slow, ask questions, don't feel pressured to answer questions that you don't want to, and only meet if you feel safe. There has been a lot of good info presented in the above posts. One thing I do now is after contact is made, no matter how hard the man will pursue, I watch his online activity and see how frequent he is on a site. I dated someone from another site who told me he only joined so that he could contact me. As I watched his activity, he was on line all day long while at work. I was sent his profile as a match on another site I no longer belonged to, and when I told him he said he didn't belong to the site any longer. Funny thing though- he was active every 24 hours. So why he felt he needed to lie about it is beyond me- it was obvious what he was doing. On this site I started dating someone who I pegged as an online addict in the very beginning, and questioned him about it. He strenuously denied it, saying he only used the site to post his "artwork". He was constantly online, his favs list always grew, then he would delete all of them and start over. He even created a second profile to expand his audience, aka "fan club", since one profile wasn't enough for him. When I look back at all of the silly excuses, I actually have to laugh at the transparency of it all. His concession to me in his mind was that he would hide his profile when he was physically with me. I never asked him to do that but in his mind this meant something special- lol. Otherwise it was up all of the time and he was in full play mode. He would even tell me about the women he chatted with, and one time he was late coming to see me as he felt he needed to speak to a woman who wrote a negative email to him about his profile. So I concluded that being on POF was always going to be his priority and having a real relationship was pretty far down his list of prioities. I think we gals just have to be smart about what we are being told, keep our eyes open and if it smells funny, throw it back. Trust your gut- its rarely wrong.

Hi Eddie: Thanks for the reply. I checked to see if somehow I had blocked POF and I haven't, so I don't know what to change on my computer.

No POF emails received- why? [Closed Thread] Posted: 6/22/2007 8:57:36 PM
I hope this isn't a redundent thread or maybe someone could direct me to a previous thread on topic.... For quite awhile now I haven't received notification from POF when I receive a new email, when someone adds me to their fav's etc. I used to receive notification, and now I don't. I haven't changed anything on my computer, or at least not that I know of. I have my mail settings set to receive emails but it doesn't happen. What am I doing wrong? Can anyone help? Thanks.

passports / do you have one? Posted: 3/12/2007 8:31:57 PM
I always have a current passport. Too many places to see to not have one, plus I am ready to go whenever a travel opportunity comes up.

When they don't call after a shower??? Posted: 2/11/2007 9:16:13 PM

do teeth matter? Posted: 11/14/2006 11:01:35 PM
I hate to say it but yeah, teeth matter. I recently went out w/ someone who was missing a tooth. I was quite taken back at first, as it was the last thing I was expecting. He said he was going to get an implant but that didn't happen. Its a shame because this guy is cuter than the****ns, but thinks the missing tooth isn't noticeable. When it is something that is fixable, I think people should do it.

What is the correct attire Posted: 11/12/2006 7:29:01 PM
Mominatrix: Thank you for an insightful and timely post. I agree wholeheartedly with what you said. I recently was in a situation where the guy I was dating would only wear sweatpants and I couldn't define what I thought his attitude was. I think you nailed it. I was embarrassed to be seen with him even at the grocery store, and I felt it was my own issues to feel this way. Thanks for making me feel better about it.

Should you post that you've met someone? Posted: 10/31/2006 7:48:39 PM
He could read / participate in the forums without his profile being posted, so thats not a valid excuse. He's still looking, imho.

In an intimate relationship and he is still looking Posted: 10/8/2006 3:48:15 PM
Its not a pleasant way to find out he has moved on, but you should do the same once you find out.

funny online dating profiles Posted: 9/23/2006 1:25:56 PM
Here's one I thought was funny: I like women who are completely toothless. Prefer women who wear complete upper and lower dentures. No dental implants please, they are a complete turn off to me. That is the tooth, the whole tooth, and nothing but the tooth. Ladies: any takers? He's still looking.

Ever date a neatnick Posted: 9/13/2006 9:17:32 PM
I went out w/ someone who said he was very neat and very clean. I would say he was more of a germ-o-phobe. I had cleaned before he came over to pick me up, but he wanted to know if I had vacuumed the couch. Now, I'm not Martha Stewart but I keep my place fairly clean and presentable. So he procees to tell me that he always changes his pants before he goes into his house after being in a public place becuase you never know who sat in the seat before you. He keeps a container of hand sanitizer in his car to clean his hands immediately after being in a public place. I was floored when he actually used a public restroom. I decided he would just be waaaaayy too much work.

So...I think I'll put a line in my profile "looking for men who can take a shower without slipping on the bar of soap".

A date at the Getty...what to wear!? Posted: 9/2/2006 9:44:36 PM
The Getty Villa or the Getty Museum? Just to browse the collection, or are you going to an event? I would say in general, casual is fine but if you're going to a special event in the evening, dress up a bit more.

When they don't call after a shower??? Posted: 9/2/2006 9:38:45 PM
Ok this happened twice in one week, 2 dif guys. One guy I had gone out w/ the night before for the first time, he asked to get together the following night and I agreed, he said he would call and he did. Said he was going to take a shower and would call me when he got out. He didn't call, and I let it go. and that was that- never heard from him again. Second guy I had been dating about a month quite often. He called on Friday, said he was going to take a shower and would call me when he got out. He didn't call! I let this one go to since he was a drinker and had been a bit flaky anyhow. Never heard from him again either. But 2 dif guys, a week apart w/ the same excuse? Is there some secret code book for guys who want to get out of a date? I hadn't initiated the calls or the plans, so wonder whats up w/ that? Is this a standard line?

Has anyone ever been dumped via email? Posted: 9/2/2006 8:03:22 PM
I've recently experienced the "No Communication" method and it is the worst by far. One guy I had only gone out w/ only once but he wanted to go out the next night, said he would call and he did, said he would call after he took a shower- and that was it. I let it go. The other one I had been seeing quite often for a month. He called on Friday, said he was going to take a shower and would call me after. And guess what? He never did. But he was quite a drinker, had stood me up before, so I decided to let that go too. So- whats with guys and taking showers, and not calling afterwards? Wierd that it happened twice.

What is wrong with the persons profile above you in this thread? Posted: 8/26/2006 8:41:37 PM
Hi rosyivy: I agree about the photo. Also it might help if you list some specific "interests" and "interesting activities". Right now its very vague and I think a guy might have a hard time seeing if there is any commonality.

The tactic of I am leaving the site to get your email addy Posted: 8/26/2006 4:36:18 PM
Thanks for all of the responses. In all 3 of these cases, the guys continued contact w/ me and I went out with 2 of them. One was just for one date, the other I dated exclusively for a month. The third is still chatting and we will be meeting soon. All of them have still been on line way past the point they said they were discontinuing. I was just curious, since 3 of them have done this. I thought maybe it was a tactic to get me "off line", since they all used the same line, but it doesn't make sense to me.

I have fallen for this tactic time and time again, and found that the guy never left the site. He continued to use it after he got my email address. Why do you think this happens so often?
