If you are man, and we're stood up..... Posted: 12/20/2008 8:31:36 PM
I'm not a man... but I wouldn't call more than once. If I don't get ahold of the person then, I'd go home.

STOOD UP by a P.O.F. MEMBER Posted: 12/20/2008 12:58:58 PM
I was stood up by someone I met here too. We "booked an appointment" and he never showed and I never heard from him again. We should have a thread here where we can call out the names of people who do crap like that, so other members know who to avoid.

Are pay dating sites worth it? Posted: 7/13/2008 4:41:52 PM
The thing I hate about paid sites is that people can sign up and make a profile without paying, you just can't respond or email anybody. So if you pay and then search for people, you're going to find alot who haven't paid and they can't respond to you if they're interested. So basically you're paying to send emails to people who can't write back. You might as well sit around emailing yourself. Grrrrrr. If I ever pay for any site again, eHarmony would be the only one. Even though they do the same, I like better than chemistry.com or match.com.

Is there such a thing as a man lasting too long? Posted: 8/3/2007 7:03:20 PM
Sex lasting longer can be nice once in a while, but I prefer 15-30 minutes. Any longer than that, especially if I've already finished, is like "... uh.... is he done yet?....." It can get sensitive and uncomfortable after awhile.

Weirdest song you ever found yourself doin' it to Posted: 8/3/2007 7:01:09 PM
I can't remember ever having music playing, but With or Without You by U2 puts me in the mood for some reason.

Am I weeding out possible good ones? Posted: 8/3/2007 6:59:43 PM
If I guy is only emailing you for that one thing... then you probably don't want him emailing you anyway. I think it's best to state in your profile exactly what you don't want to hear. I had random guys just adding me to their favorites without us having corresponded at all. Even after adding me, they didn't email. I hate that. It's just a little weird to me. At least say hey first. So I put in my profile not to do that or I will delete them. Guys still do it, but at least I'm weeding out the ones who aren't actually reading my profile.

Beware: eHarmony sucks... Posted: 6/2/2007 6:46:01 AM
I'm on the fence about eharmony. They keep matching me with people who aren't really matches. I like it better than match.com though. I signed up for the deal that if you don't meet someone in 6 months, you get 6 months free. But there's certain criteria you have to fill every month, the hardest being that you have to email at least 5 members a month. The problem is I can't find 5 new members to email every month. It's hard to find that many people on there a month that stand out in any way. As soon as that subscriptions expires, I'm out of there.

How can you love so much? Posted: 3/4/2007 12:13:24 PM
In my opinion, if you really loved any of them, you wouldn't be asking this question. I think you need a 4th option.

Questions Posted: 3/4/2007 11:58:20 AM
Motivation is does that turn most men down if a woman wants to get her priorities in order first. (IE: Out of College, and starting their career.) Well, i'm not a man, so I can't speak for one. But for myself, I might have an issue if I met someone and they had a list of priorities that went first. I'm kind of anxious to settle down and start a family and if a man wanted college, career, etc. first, that might bring up a problem. You just need to meet a man who wants to do all that first. You're young, you've got time.

what is the difference between dating and long term? Posted: 3/4/2007 11:32:17 AM
The `long term`, to me, would signify that a gal is ready to stop playing the dating-game (never hear of the commitment-game..go figure) and invest some time with people who seem to have potential for more than just a one-time outing. Yeah, that's more or less why I put "long-term" on my profile. I don't expect to read a profile and then marry the guy a week later, but I am looking for something to lead in that direction.

kay, so im confused about a lot here..i need your help Posted: 3/4/2007 11:19:20 AM
so, i have moved in with my boyfriend who i have met here. which is wonderful and all. he accepts me for who i really am, i just don't know if i can allow myself to completely let him get close to me. i mean i have been hurt a lot, more than i probably should have, but know i'm always wondering if he's going to turn out like the others. what do you think i should do? also i have one more question thats a little more serious and one that is really got me stumped. is it too soon to want him to ask THE question? we haven't really known eachother for that long, but we both love eachother a lot. more than i thought would ever happen again. so yah i just need your suggestions/opinions of what you think that i should do. Well, I definitely understand the scared to get close to him thing. Maybe moving in with him already wasn't the best idea. If you're scared of getting close now, a marriage proposal might actually scare you even more than you know. Asking him THE question now is probably not the best idea either. I'd hold off on it until you don't have any more reservations.

Why do guys say they are good looking in their profiles? Posted: 3/4/2007 11:15:10 AM
I find this a turn off than a turn on. I have seen profile after profile, with a guy saying he is attractive, handsome, hottie, etc. Most of the time, I don't agree. Shouldn't one just let their picture speak the words and let the viewer decide that? Do you think it shows them to be conceited or narcissistic? Do you believe they really think that to put that on there? Do they wake in the morning and say "Good Morning, Good Looking" in the mirror? Yeah, I don't like it either. I won't even finish reading the profile.

She ordered the lobster! Posted: 3/4/2007 11:14:09 AM
A gal I dated once had me pick her up from her ex's house and drop her off there after the date. Needless to say there wasn't a second date, her ex was the number 1 topic for conversation for the evening. Wow.... that was just rude of her. I would have let her walk home.

BEST ADVICE TO GETTING OVER YOUR EX Posted: 3/4/2007 10:56:53 AM
That's a pretty nice way to put it. Any advice on HOW to focus yourself on finding someone new? I've been trying - but I get scared everytime I get to the "let's meet in person" stage. For recovered addicts, it can be easy to fall back into the drugs and alcohol, even though you know it's bad. I worry about ending up in the same kind of relationship again and end up going through this all over again.... am I making sense?
