Whats wrong with my profile? I think I scare people away...haha Posted: 10/2/2009 4:12:01 PM
first of all.. how about changing your paragraph to a couple of spaced out sentences. It gets a little much sometimes for people to read when everything is bunched together. Second... get with a friend who knows how to use a camera. The pic you have as the main pic is clearly a cropped one of you with someone else (i'm guessing a girl) and that's not real attractive.

Can someone classify Dating? Posted: 10/2/2009 3:47:30 PM
if you haven't had the rule set that you can't date other people, you aren't in a relationship, you're dating. Usually, if a girl wants to be in a relationship with you, she'll let you know.

How do you tell someone? Or should you? Posted: 11/1/2007 6:04:21 PM
Ok.. didn't see anyone offer this advice.. so here goes.. Ask her.. "do you ever think about what it would be like if we dated ?" easy, open ended question and gives her the opportunity to get out of it easily if she's not keen on what you're feeling. It gives her the perfect "in" if she wants to date you as well... best of all.. it won't damage the friendship if she says no.. or make her uncomfortable. good luck with that :)

Eating on a first date Posted: 8/7/2007 4:51:45 AM
I'll sometimes ask what he's going to order. The reason ? I may want the same thing.. or might wanna share his.. and i'll order something he might like, so he can share mine. but, I'm so not a salad girl. LOL. I'm going to order what I'm hungry for.. If i'm not hungry.. i'll order something light.. but if he wants to eat light, and i'm starving.. i'm still gonna get the full dinner. There's always ways to take home leftovers :)

a man buying you lingerie? Posted: 8/2/2007 4:20:08 AM
Don't EVER buy a woman clothes if you don't know her exact size. Its the ultimate insult if you buy something too big or too small.. that's just a fight waiting to happen, and will be the opposite reaction of what you are looking for. Get her a gift card and let her surprise you.. or go shopping with her.. tell her what you like, so she can go find it in her size so she can try it on.. and make sure it's something she'd wear.

I love you, but I'm not in love with you. Posted: 8/1/2007 4:53:28 AM
sad to say.. but it's time for you to move on. She's trying to let you down as gently as she can. Good for her that she's not all demonic about it.. some people are just plain brutal when ending a relationship. It sounds like she's trying to exit gracefully.

Am I cheap? Posted: 8/1/2007 4:36:23 AM
ok.. why don't you take them for coffee ? Or.. hey.. it's summer, and you live in LA.. why not go to a festival or something ? Does the first meet have to be in the evening ? You can scope out your local entertainment and see if there's something going on. Is it possible to take a ride to the beach, maybe ? the point is.. there are less expensive alternatives until you get to know someone. Be creative. We women like that :)

I wouldn't date a pizza guy.. Posted: 7/29/2007 6:56:41 AM
High Five A/C !!! Yeah.. when I was a kid.. my dad ended up working part time as a pizza guy to put food on the table for the 5 of us. You know what ?? He's one of the hardest workers I know. Now, he makes killer money at another job.. but at the time.. he did what he could to make ends meet, and didn't even consider it "beneath" him. He had kids to feed. and hey.. he got free pizzas on occasion. That was a huge bonus for a 9 year old

Better to fade away or say goodbye Posted: 7/26/2007 4:36:03 AM
it's always better to say goodbye. You may even be able to maintain some kind of a friendship with the girl. If it's just not working out for you.. for goodness sake.. have some stones and tell her so! Its much easier not to communicate.. this is true.. but what happens if you meet a girl that you are interested in, and this girl happens to be a friend of hers? If you burned that bridge, it will also block your access to other roads. being broken up with is never easy. But, I bet she'll have alot more respect for you if you do it like a man.

still got stuff at my house and its been 4 months Posted: 7/23/2007 4:06:47 PM
in order for you move on, you need to get all her garbage out of your house. Tell it to her straight. That you feel she's had plenty of time to remove her belongings, and that you'll give her 30 days to come get the rest. After then, it's going to goodwill. yeah, I'd say you are being WAY too nice here. Just give her a deadline, and then she's outta your life.

So I got a question Posted: 7/20/2007 2:36:31 PM
No. You aren't ugly at all. You have a very strong jawline, and great bone structure. Some people would kill for such :) Beauty is always in the eye of the beholder. And the people who have called you names are ugly on the inside. However.. if I may offer a small suggestion ?? You could get a haircut that is a little more flattering to you.. and consider having the eyebrows threaded. Just to take a little of the bush off. I think it would bring out the exoticness of your bone structure. You may find that the little changes would bring you a world of confidence. Why do you think we females change our hair color so often ?? Good luck to you.. and I hope you find a woman worthy of you :)

When a woman brushes her boobs against you Posted: 7/20/2007 2:24:47 PM
OMG.. The egos !!!!! I'm dying over here ! First off.. I've cut someone's hair before.. and I'm sure the twins brushed up against them.. but it was in no way intentional !!! When a woman is leaning in to make sure it's a good hair cut.. Surprise! her chest might accidentally touch you. I'm sure it drives some men insane.. but they are just in the way. LMAO!!! But if it works out for big tips for those women cutting you guy's hair.. More power to them ! They aren't paid well enough anyway in my opinion. I'm sure many people have accidentally gotten a chest brush from me.. .. it's just that they kind of stick out and sometimes there's not alot of room ! But never in all my days has it been intentional flirting . If i wanted to flirt using the twins, I'd do it frontally. LOL.. they are much more impressive to look at then to have randomly rubbed on someone.

Something that I've always wanted to know Posted: 7/20/2007 2:09:40 PM
well.. my sister and I have the same feeling about makeup. It's like war-paint to us. (yea, we call it that. We're both of Native American decent. ) We wear it when we want to feel more confident. Its also sometimes our way of blocking out the world. Most people don't see the true us behind our paint. I could care less if some girl / guy wants to criticize me for not wearing it. I wear it when / if I want to. to heck with those that judge me for it or it's lack.

Why do women do this? Posted: 7/20/2007 1:54:09 PM
Ok, so according to you, she has no right to look for another man because you are interested in her ? or because she flirted back ? one of two things happened here. She either really did find a boyfriend in between the time she originally gave you her number, or.. door number 2.. she's being b*tchy because you didn't persue her and letting you know the window of opportunity is now closed. Maybe you need to look at how you view "leading you on". Some people flirt, and it's meaningless. Maybe she was just being nice ? having a few conversations with someone does not necessarily mean you're interested in dating them. I think her not calling you back was a big clue. Or maybe she just didn't like the message you left. Either way.. she's done with you. Move on.

How do I get my x girlfriend to stop stalking my place of employment?? Posted: 7/12/2007 8:58:11 PM
you didn't say where you work.. but i'm assuming its a public place ? Otherwise, you could just have security ban her arse. If you're at a public place, have the manager talk to her, and ban her from the place. Otherwise, you either have to put up with it, or look for a new job.

Just how assertive do you want a man to be? Posted: 7/7/2007 6:28:40 AM
You are thinking too hard about this. If it's messing up your natural flow then you definately need to NOT THINK about it. Do what feels natural to you. Not what you think we'll like. When a guy is making moves to "be assertive" but he's not really feeling it, then it's a game. What I want is a man who puts his hands on me because he can't keep them off me !

Is the romance novel female pornography ? Posted: 6/30/2007 2:36:34 PM
I think it totally depends on the novel. No, the men aren't always successful in romance novels.. what they usually are would be Alpha males... Strong characters. It is fiction. I realize this, and don't go looking for "romance hero" characteristics in real life. Of course, I'm into the stranger novels, myself. I like to escape into an alien fantasy land. I dig all things otherworldly. Normal romances bore me. I also like the female characters to be strong, butt kicking females. Laurell K Hamilton, one of my favorite authors, used to be more horror than romance.. her sex scenes were deliciously spicy... but now she's definately more porn.. I usually skip the sex scenes if I'm reading her.. and try to get to the actual story. The female character is a strong, put a bullet in a nasty monster kinda character. And THAT's what I like. However.. I know better than to try to read any of her novels in public ! Janet Evanovitch has a great series about a former lingerie model turned bounty hunter that I love.. again, it's classified as a romance.. but it's light reading, and her books are hysterical. I absolutely love her dog. She goes into great detail about how much the dog eats, and the fact that he will eat anything. Once, her dog saved her from being kidnapped by upchucking on the kidnappers.. too freaking funny :) I definately don't read those for porn.. I read them to laugh. Edit : You may have a point though.. men want real life to be like porn.. and women want it to be like a romance novel. LOL !!!!

Hookup vs Long Term...Please Advise Posted: 6/24/2007 9:34:16 AM
then she's definately not sleeping with you because she's interested in a more long term relationship. That old double standard again. I go with my first thought that she perhaps didn't mean it the way you took it. Maybe she was just testing you to see if you'd go for a "hook up".

q for the guys--Tattoos on women--yes or no? Posted: 6/24/2007 9:13:06 AM
Your body belongs to your wife/husband. It's in the New Testament. Thus, do what you like AFTER you tie the knot. LMAO!!! I got one 3 years ago celebrating my divorce !!!!!!! Personally.. I have 3 tatts.. no plans for more. Each one is unique and special to me. If I meet a guy that doesn't dig them, clearly he's not the man for me. I don't think ink or lack thereof defines having class...I think class is more in the actions of the person. but that's JMHO.. I like ink on a guy.. as long as it's not overdone. One of the sexiest tatts I ever saw was wrapped around a beautiful bicep of a guy i dated.. I couldn't stop licking it To each their own.. I'm not going to judge someone for their likes or dislikes.. It's all a matter of preference. Just asking that those that won't date a woman that has them.. before you judge.. there are alot of reasons behind getting one. There are some that have deep, personal meanings. Like a previous poster mentioned with the teardrop.. it was of a cultural significance to them. I happen to have one that means something really significant to me.. and I would NEVER regret getting it. It's a piece of my soul tattooed on me as a reminder.. and only those that I trust and love will ever know the true story behind it.

Hookup vs Long Term...Please Advise Posted: 6/24/2007 7:49:44 AM
perhaps she didn't mean that exactly the way you took it. Hooking up to her may mean dating.. it may not mean a one-nighter. It totally depends on her perspective. From what you've said, two possible things are going on here. One, she likes you, but you aren't really flipping her switches. The most likely scenario is that she really likes you, and that's why she's not sleeping with you. It has to do with that age old double standard that some men tend to think less of a woman if she goes to bed with them too soon, and it kills any chance for a long term relationship. But I'd offer to meet her in NYC for St. Patricks day and see how she responds.

How many of you get tired of lot of e-mails and confusion Posted: 6/19/2007 8:42:25 PM
you make a few sweeping generalizations here. For instance.. I know several women who clean out their favorites regularly. I don't keep alot on mine, because if i don't talk to them, what's the point ? If they are looking for something I'm totally against, they get nixed and blocked. Who says we respond to all of the people who add us to their favorites list? Some we do, some we don't. It's all a matter of personal preference. Who says men only think about sex, and don't want a relationship and true love? There are guys out there that are serious about finding someone meant for them. Another thing... some of us are single, some are not. Some have even :: gasp:: managed to find relationships.

Why do women want smart, funny guys?? (small rant will be included) Posted: 6/19/2007 8:31:43 PM
We want funny.. because laughter gives us endorphins, and makes us feel good. it's actually an aphrodesiac. And if you don't get our sense of humor, then we find someone who does. We want smart, because eventually, we're going to actually want to talk to you. it's no fun conversing with someone who has the IQ of a sack of potatoes.

if you get a real answer to this question, please let me know. lol.. I've been on dates when I met the guy, he was 10 years older than his pics.. Once where it wasn't even his pics he sent me.. he purposely used a male model's pics. geez.. like I wouldn't know the difference when a big, old, red headed, bushy bearded guy showed up instead of a 30 year old blond ,clean cut guy. Um, hello ? one that I had spent about a month talking to.. right before our first meeting, he finally admitted to lying about his sexual orientation. :: shudders:: it's not just women that do it.. men do it too. personally, I don't lie. I am what I am. I will be happy to send a pic that shows my body type, and I plainly tell everyone I am heavy. If they aren't into me, they aren't into me. not a big deal. everyone has their tastes and preferences. Personally, I don't like big redheaded men with unkept beards . But, that's just me

Do women like seeing guys naked? Posted: 6/18/2007 3:40:33 PM
Ok.. In answer to your question.. most women like seeing THEIR man nude. As far as random winky pics go... funny story.. I was speaking to a guy, and he sent me his pictures. I was expecting a pic of his face.. instead I got the winky pic. then he asked me what I thought. Hmm.. well.. it's a penis.. it wasn't a very impressive one. So I said "It looks like a penis to me". He then asked if I would keep the pic.. "no. I only keep very special pictures. " was my reply.. He then asked , "like what?" I sent him an example.. I believe it was about triple his size. Needless to say.. I didn't hear from the guy anymore.

status -in relationship and dating, money, status, job title and money money is impo Posted: 6/4/2007 4:04:04 AM
wow.. talk about judging character! You don't even know me. It's definately not that I can't "get" someone with a higher status. I've dated all kinds.. I even dated a millionare once... and you know what? he was too pretentious for me. My ex husband worked for NASA. I divorced him because he was a cheater. if I want Money, I'll go make some. Finding someone who values more than that is what is important to me. As I said before, it's the way he treats ME, as a person, not what he does. I'm looking for CHARACTER, not status. there are actually several reasons people split, money is just one of them. Difference in values is another, especially when children become involved. Not all women are alike. Some value status. I happen to be one of those that don't. If it's so important to you to find a woman who strokes your ego because you make more money than her, go find her.

Yes.. I've dated men with less education than I.. and Yes, I've dated men that made less money than I do. Doesn't matter to me in the least.. What I care about when it comes to financial matters is that he has a job.. and works hard and can support himself. I could care less what he does. One of the men I dated and was quite fond of, delivered pizzas for a living. Perhaps in your parents culture, status is very important. With me, it's about the way he treats me, not what he does, or how much money he makes.

The right signs? Posted: 6/3/2007 5:33:00 AM
well.. first thing... when you are together.. is she snuggly with you ? does she get touchy / feely ? If she's constantly touching you.. that's a good sign. have you seen this girl in her pjs ? when shes sick ? looking like general hell? if yes, you might be in the friend zone.. if she's that unconcerned about what she looks like to you.. she's probably not interested.. she's probably just comfortable seeing you as a friend. Changing over from being friends to a relationship can be a sticky thing. You risk losing the friendship if not done right. However.. you also risk that this girl has feelings for you as well, and never said anything because she doesn't want to lose you as a friend. The best relationships start from friendships. I once exclaimed to a male friend, "you are so sweet, I could just kiss you." Now, if he had said, "why don't I just kiss you instead?" and moved to do so.. things might have gone differently between us. I found out later he was harboring some feelings for me, as I was for him.. but by then.. we had drifted apart, and the timing was wrong. My best advice.. ask her to go to the movies or out to dinner, or hang out with you.. Some time during the night.. move in to kiss her slowly while looking into her eyes.. if she doesn't want the lip kiss, she'll either back away or turn her head. if she turns her head, kiss her on the cheek or on the forehead. You'll know where you stand, and she won't feel she hurt your feelings if it doesn't work out. Just kiss the girl !

The best pickup you've had, and where it was. Posted: 6/3/2007 5:08:49 AM
probably the most flattering one I had was when I was driving. He was in the lane next to me.. We were stopped at the light. He honked his horn to get my attention, and I looked over and rollled down my window. I happened to be chatting to my girlfriend on my cellphone at the time. He said something to the effect that he saw me smile, and had to get my number. So, I gave it to him. He called a few minutes later. as far as your grocery store story... you could have said anything.. Asked her about the product she picked out.. if it really worked... explained you were a bachelor and didn't really know much about brands of cleaning stuff, and could she help you out a bit ?? etc.. You could have looked discreetly at her cart and commented on something in there.. Or you could have simply said something close to the truth.. that you don't normally get chatty in the supermarket, but she was so stunningly beautiful that you felt you wanted to come up and meet her. It's not as complicated as you think it is. Half the battle is initiative. Where doesn't matter as much.. It can be at a restaurant, a grocery store, a stop light, a coffee shop..

What's with the boob tattoos? Posted: 6/1/2007 4:52:12 AM
Brain... good that you don't judge too quickly . Kudos for keeping an open mind Personally.. every tattoo I have has special meaning for me. I have only 3, and don't have ambition for getting more. The one I talked about on my wrist ? My Mother, Sister and I all have matching ones in the same place.. and it was my mom's idea and design. It's small.. easily hidden and feminine. It was a family bonding thing. LOL. Every tattoo I have symbolizes something special to me. The timing behind them was a major life event. Just so you know.. everyone has their reasons

What's with the boob tattoos? Posted: 5/31/2007 4:42:55 PM
Ok.. I'm going to answer this one.. Having a tattoo on my chest.. 1) plain and simple.. It can be hidden if I want it to be. 2) It hurts less to have one there. Yes. Its true.. the more fatty tissue, the less painful the tattoo is. The closer it is to bone, the more it hurts. I have one on my left inner wrist and I yowled for the whole 15 minutes. The one on my chest barely caused me to grimace. 3) I can see it. It's body art. I like looking at it. It's my decoration. Tuck back your ego a bit, honey.. it's not about YOU It's not about drawing male attention there. At least, it wasn't for me, nor many of the people I know with tattoos on the chest. The main reason was hiding it if we wanted to. But if your eyes wander there when it's exposed.. well, I decorated it with art, who'd pass a well done painting and not take a gander ? I'm not going to get ticked about it if you do. It happens. Hopefully, you're a mature enough man to take a brief look, then tuck your eyes back in your head.

You can tell by the first kiss? Posted: 5/26/2007 5:53:16 AM
well.. you can definately tell by the first kiss if he's wrong for you.. Examples of bad kisses: When you feel like you need a towel to wipe your face after. (Don't lick my chin) When the guy absolutely won't use his tongue at all. (A little passion here, please?) When he leaves a hickey, or teeth marks on your lip. (OUCH!) Using too much tongue and trying to gag me. (this is NOT the time to test that reflex) The bone melting kiss: Place your hand in her hair right at the nape, bring her towards you slowly, start softly at the lips, and follow her lead with the tongue. Tug the hair just slightly as the passion increases, and end the kiss with a little suck to the bottom lip. hope that clears things up for you.

translation of what she's already told you : she went to alot of effort for you already .. she cancelled her plans for you. Got her hair done. got her nails done. Is willing to cancel her plans for you again.. Wants to see you again soon. Wants you to ask her again soon... was hoping to see you Tuesday... but will settle for friday.. didn't make the moves she was expecting, and wants you to move a wee bit faster.. is used to a little more agressiveness. Answer.. move a little more agressively, but only what makes you comfortable. You can do something as simple as playing with her hair, holding her hand, brushing your hand over her cheek and smiling at her, putting your arm around her.. just little things that show you're into her.. but nothing that pushes a big boundary if you're not comfortable with that yet. Trust me.. those things mean alot to a girl. Good luck to you

Quick easy meals for busy people Posted: 5/3/2007 5:47:14 PM
bisquick is your friend :) there's a great recipe on the box for mexican chicken.. I spice it up a little bit mixing in a little corn meal into the batter.. it makes kind of a tamale tasting crust. you can even use canned chicken if you want to make it quicker. All you need is bisquick, milk, eggs, salsa, and cheese. If you have a little cornmeal, add that into the mix too.. it gives a great flavor. Experiment with the cheese.. i like using the mexican flavor cheese. yummy! Another quick easy meal using canned chicken... grab your food processor.. mix one big can of chicken with a 1/2 tub of chive and onion cream cheese. Open a can of cresent rolls so they make 4 rectangles. Place the filling in each of the 4 rectangles and fold over. bake until browned according the the crescent rolls package directions. (this can be lightened up using reduced fat cream cheese and reduced fat crescent rolls) These are also great for breakfast, and great for leftovers! ( you can also substitute the chicken for breakfast sausage in the mornings !) Another quick easy meal... brown some ground beef / chicken or turkey.. add green peppers, onions, mushrooms... mix with a 1/2 can of mushroom soup or 1/2 tub sour cream. spread on 1/2 a french roll, top with mozzarella cheese, and pop under a broiler until cheese is melted. Stroganoff sandwiches! or , you can skip the bread, and toss over noodles .

Migraines? Posted: 5/2/2007 4:38:19 AM
I've suffered with migraines , and even been hospitalized with them. I found mine are mostly related to food allergies from what's called tannins.. here's a wonderful site that I hope helps someone. http://www.widomaker.com/~jnavia/tannins/tannlist.htm believe it or not, when the doctors were giving up on the cause of mine, I found this site. It helped alot. Since then , I went on preventatives, Topamax and cymbalta. Unfortunately, it doesn't help me avoid all of them.. just most. I still get them occasionally.. usually when one of those tannins sneak in my diet from when I'm not paying attention. Or from weather pressure... or stress.. I wouldn't wish migraines on my worst enemy.. for everyone that gets them.. you have my deepest sympathy. I just wanted to share what I do know.. and hopefully that helps someone .

question about who viewed you section Posted: 4/28/2007 6:24:30 AM
well.. nothing ventured, nothing gained :) Some women aren't comfortable emailing a man first. They are waiting for him to make the move. However, some are just looking to look. And for some, the profile might not have sparked their interest. However, if hers sparks your interest, take a risk and email her.. what's the worst that can happen? A non response. Well... you've lost nothing, then have you? What I don't get is those that look several times and still don't message you.. if I'm that interesting to look at.. take a chance and email me, ya know? good luck to you, and happy

Lost phone number Posted: 4/28/2007 6:15:32 AM
if she's called you, then it's on her cell phone?? she should be able to pull it up. Lets just put it this way.. if she were really into you, she'd have programmed it.

A situation straight out of 'Chasing Amy' Posted: 4/28/2007 6:04:10 AM
Before she goes.. Walk right up to her, and kiss her for all you're worth. If she asks why, tell her you couldn't let her go without knowing how it felt, and end with how much you'll miss her. her reaction will tell you all you need to know. Sometimes when you can't find words, actions work wonders . best of luck to you..

Anyone had cuddling turn into more? Posted: 4/25/2007 7:31:58 PM
krill.. just kiss the girl. in answer to your question though.. yes.. I have done the cuddling with a FRIEND.. never been anything sexual with us.. never gonna be. We will just lay on the couch together and watch movies or talk. Everyone needs affection from time to time.. and a good cuddle buddy is a luxury. as far as it turning into something more.. if you want to move to the next level.. start with a kiss to her forehead.. cheek... see if she's receptive . good luck.. and happy cuddling

Do woman want love or money Posted: 4/24/2007 4:38:23 PM
geneseo great list. Now... if some of us ladies could find a man that fits just a few of those fine qualities, we'd be happy women. as to answer the question, you can't generalize and say that women are all about money.. some are.. some are definately not. Every woman is different. Myself, I'd rather have someone who fills my heart, not my wallet.

asking a woman a question... Posted: 4/23/2007 7:52:17 PM
I'm getting the feeling you are asking pretty invasive questions. Typing behind your computer screen should be treated no differently than if you were sitting in front of her. If you'd ask her those same questions in person and not get kneed in the groin, or biotch slapped, then you're just coming across some mean women. It happens.. If you wouldn't want some random internet dude talking to your baby sister like that... then perhaps you should evaluate the importance of such questions to you.

Keeping Conversation Posted: 4/23/2007 7:43:50 PM
call her. If she gave you her number, then she wants you to use it with the talking in IMs , it can get very difficult sometimes to think of new topics, and try to keep the flow of the conversation going. On the phone is easier.. you can respond to things in the conversation.. listen when she giggles, sighs, etc... try to confound her with an off the wall question on the phone and make her laugh.. seriously, just call the girl .
