Just revived my profile after several months and low and behold, tomorrow is my BD and I live 5 minutes from here! Sounds too fateful not to show up. Look forward to meeting some new fishes!

Dating someone who has a lot of single friends of the opposite sex!? Posted: 2/2/2008 10:13:35 AM
It is hard to be objective when you think someone is perfect in every other way. Looking from the outside however, this is a big, permanent part of his personality. It bothers you. It will not be different 5 years from now. I have to agree with some other posts here, either live with it or get out of it.

You guys crack me up Posted: 1/7/2008 3:35:41 AM
I want to take it one step further and ask what the circumstances are leading up to the first face to face encounter? Help me out ladies, but for me taking that step is a way down the road from the first email. I find most men want to meet after a couple of emails, but I need a couple or more weeks of emailing, then IM, then phone conversations. Maybe you can get some clues from the pre-meeting commonalities. By the time I am ready to meet, I know you pretty well and don't have many reservations about how the date is going to go. If most gals are like this and 10 of them met you, you made the cut up until then...my hunch is you are not talking on the phone first or the person you describe yourself to be is not who shows up for the date!

People keep messaging me,saying my profile is psychotic..? Posted: 1/7/2008 2:02:56 AM
My observation of attention to detail when it comes to profile reading was just validated many times over. Not carefully reading (your occupation for example) about someone or being able to pick up on subtle let alone overt clues about them is perhaps one of the reasons online dating isn't more successful in creating real life relationships. When all you have is a few lines of prose to decide if you want to get to know someone, you are best served to know what those lines say word for word!

525,600 minutes - How do you measure a year? Posted: 1/6/2008 4:58:19 PM
Not normally obsessive, I am about Rent. On stage, the movie, the music. Anytime I feel down or lonely I put the best of CD on and somehow I feel better. 525,600 is the ringtone on my cell. My 4 year old son knows all the words and sings it at the top of his lungs with me in the car. If you have never seen a Broadway play, this is an excellent one to start with.

Would you keep seeing this guy? Posted: 5/21/2007 8:34:51 AM
Only you can really answer this for yourself. It is easy for everyone to tell you what they think is obvious and add you are crazy. There are so many relationships in this world that are drama filled, flags everywhere from day 1, lies, games, and frequent law enforcement visits etc. that you would probably veto if presented with the facts that the parties involved aren't willing or able to let go of the relationship over. In fact, some thrive on it and get bored quickly without it. No one is going to champion your guy on paper. You are aware of at least the surface issues if YOU decide to stay in the relationship. The fact that you are asking IF seems to say you are not ready to let it go. Just my opinion :) Good Luck.

Guy I met online keeps asking for money Posted: 5/21/2007 4:55:36 AM
I see you started this sometime ago and have gotten plenty of replies. Your description of his actions was so well written that to those of us not right in the middle of it can easily see it for what it is. I do not think you are an idiot, naive, or any of the other negative things you have been labeled with in many of the responses. I find it refreshing there are still a few non-jaded souls out there that have compassion for others. I find it even more impressive that you had the sense to post a concern if something wasn't sitting right in your gut instead of allowing this predator to repeatedly and inappropriately contact you or even worse sending him the money he asked for.
