I, personally, feel sorry for Chairman....Wow...He sounds sooooo old, bitter, lonely, and pathetic....And he doesn't even know it....Can't figure out why he is alone..Just sad...that's all...Just MHO.

Pushed away again Posted: 7/9/2009 6:10:18 PM
Anyone, male or female, that wants their space...simply isn't THAT INTO YOU!!!! If you were truly in a loving, caring relationship...he would turn toward you...not away from you, since he is a "Broken Man"...whatever that means!!! Let him go and carry on with your life...Find someone who DOES want to spend time with you...

What are the chances of ever going on a date from this site? Posted: 7/6/2009 5:40:05 PM
I have met LOTS of awesome guys on POF!!!!! I am presently dating and getting to know a wonderful man I met on here!!!! I think POF is an awesome dating tool as long as people on here are HONEST!!!! I am totally honest(never had a man complain) and have only had a few men I met on here be untruthful. Don't expect that everyone you meet on here will be a love connection...If one doesn't fit the description of the kind of person you want to spend time with, be honest with them and move on. Get back on that horse and you will find that your perserverance will pay off...Happy fishing!!

Question for you guys Posted: 7/6/2009 5:32:44 PM
I don't know about men over 40...but I do know from experience...that men over 50 are definately looking for long term relationship...And I like that!!!! I think, no matter what your age is, that we are ALL looking to be loved, respected and validated. I have no problem with people who are not interested in long term...as long as they are honest about it going in. That way a person can make an informed decision if they even want to meet someone like that. We have all taken beatings in love...but I still think it is better to have loved and lost..then never to have loved at all..No regrets...and begin each new relationship with a clean slate.

Would you ever consider? Posted: 7/4/2009 3:34:09 PM
You can't help who your heart loves....If I fell in love with a man in a wheelchair then I would give my all to him... The wheelchair is irrelevant...It's who he is...and his heart...that matters.

OP....Keep in mind...."If they do it with you...they will do it TO you"....If she cheats on her current boyfriend..no matter what a loser he is...with you...she will eventually CHEAT ON YOU!!! In my mind...it's no contest. I'd walk away!

Does it ever come back? Posted: 7/2/2009 9:48:02 AM
Colin...What you had with your girlfriend for three and a half years, was obviously, very special!!! And you will have very special again in another relationship. Upon meeting new women, I really hope that you are NOT comparing them in any way to your ex. That would be sooooo unfair. Look at getting involved in a NEW relationship as an adventure. ENJOY the dating process and meet as many new people as you can. Someday someone will capture your heart again. I speak from experience..I have been divorced 20 years and on my own that whole time. I never thought I'd ever meet someone who would capture my heart....but I did!!! If I can find someone to care about and enjoy life with at my age...so can you!!! Your next relationship will be more loving, more passionate than the last and you will look back and wonder what all this wasted time was about. Get out there and date and don't stop looking until you find her!!! I wish you sooooo well.

So when do you start your Christmas shopping? Posted: 7/1/2009 6:29:36 PM
I used to be the idiot you saw running around the mall at the last minute Christmas Eve...Not any more tho!!!! Last year I did my shopping in October!!! It was hard to get into the mood for Christmas shopping cuz there was no snow...But ultimately...I loved be over and done with it when the snow finally hit. I'll do the same this year!!! Procrasinator no more!!!

The Dilemma Posted: 7/1/2009 6:24:34 PM
Sonhos.....I truly understand your concern for your friend...as any of us would be. But if he wanted his parents to know what is going on in his life, healthwise, he would tell them. As you don't know what your friends health problem is or how serious it is all you can do is be there for him. Dealing with his mom's cancer may be contributing to his health problem. Let him know you are always there for him and please don't betray the confidence he shared with you. In conversations with him...gently suggest he make some phone calls to keep in touch with his family. Ultimately, how he handles this situation is totally up to him. All you can do as a friend is be there. Good luck to you and your friend.

If I guy declines sex, does the woman assume he's gay ? Posted: 6/23/2009 5:30:11 PM
There are BOTH guys and gals out there that would prefer to get to know someone before jumping into bed with them!!! Geez...if sex is all I wanted I could get that anywhere. For me, I'm looking for a relationship...and yes, sex is important in the relationship, but I'd rather get to know the person first. Casual sex is, in my opinion, EMPTY. And I don't need that in my life...Not to mention diseases...Geeze, doesn't take a rocket scientist....If someone is that eager to get you to bed...I would seriously fear for my health. I'm healthy and plan on staying that way!!! But to each their own!!

I don't watch Reality Shows (it's like voyeurism to me) so have no input here. I'm sure there's nothing like going through a divorce in front of 10 million people!!! I don't understand the attraction of the show but oh well....Hope it works out for them.

A Case of Misplaced Aggression? Posted: 6/23/2009 5:12:29 PM
The two guys involved in the murder of the RCMP officers, in my opinion, should have very harsh sentences. If I were judge, I would have given them longer sentences...WHY???? Because if they wouldn't have given Rosco the gun and driven him back home...those officers would be alive today...They are just as guilty as if they would have pulled the trigger....If they feared Rosco...they should have turned to the police with the information!!! Not do what they did...then go home like nothing happened...I have absolutely NO PITY for them. This is just my opinion so don't bother to slam me...Everyone is entitled to an opinion.

When two people break up...and go their separate ways...what they did in that time away and with whom....is NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!!!! If you wanted things to remain the same...you should have worked on the relationship before it came to an end...DUH!!!!!

Coffee Slave.....I'm 100% with you on bad treatment of our kids....The kids WE BOTH brought into the world but I think my ex neglected our son to get back at me! Not a single cent would I give him from lottery winnings or anything else for that matter...I'm sooooo grateful he is out of my life for good and my son and I are very close..He is the only person that I truly would not care if he rotted in hell!!!

Am I the only one that never got screwed over financially?????? We split everything down the middle...I NEVER went for HALF HIS PENSION....that my lawyer told me I was entitled to!!! I fired that lawyer and got another one because I don't take things that DON'T belong to me...That was his pension...and because the split was a friendly one...no one got screwed over and our children never suffered...To this day, my ex-husband and I are good friends. He has remarried and life has gone on...The father of my youngest son, however, I wouldn't give a penny to. The reason being is the way he treated our son. They don't have a relationship to speak of to this day..And my son is 22.......And I wasn't judging...just stating an opinion. If the reason is that you got screwed over financially...then I understand. It just never happened to me so I learned new things today. Sorry to everyone who loved and got raked over the coals.

Glad to see there are still kind, generous people out there!!! Especially CaffeineJunkie!!! I love your attitude, girl. It is right in line with mine...Just because relationships didn't work out doesn't mean our exes are monsters. Quite the opposite in fact, and YES...I believe that if they were the winning party they would share with me...NO trubblemakr (You certainly live up to your name!) I DON'T kiss ass and try to win an ex back...What a stupid thing to say when you don't even know me...But after reading your response....I understand fully why you are SINGLE!!!! Thanks for the responses and personally, I think the ones that would share, show they have moved beyond the relationship feelings and baggage, and realize the time spent with an ex was for a REASON...

Just becauses they are exes...doesn't mean that the time you spent with them was for nothing!!! The exes that I still hold in high esteem (maybe the breakup was MY doing) I would be happy to share my good luck with them...Mostly...it would be to pay off their mortgage so that their earnings would be free and clear..I would like to think that is what friends do for each other!!! 24 Million is alot of money...Yes my kids would be taken care of, as would I...but you could help alot of friends out too!!

I would share with ex-boyfriends because although the relationship didn't work out...I still love them as friends!!! And I would share my winnings with my friends.Not ALL ex-boyfriends...but there are a few that are still near and dear to my heart and if I could make their life a little easier...I would do that.

Etiquette for adding a person to favorites list Posted: 6/11/2009 4:44:32 PM
I've been added to a person's fav list and I have absolutely NO IDEA WHY???? Are they thinking that I'll be notified that they added me and then I'll send them a message to Thank them...or what???? I don't know the protocol for that so I just do nothing..If it was someone I was interested in..I'd probably do just that...But what do you do if you are not interested in them??? Miss Manners...where are you when I NEED you!!!

I think BOTH are hard...It is just as hard to TELL someone you don't feel for them the way they feel for you, as it is for someone to HEAR it.. But it's a necessary evil!!! The DUMPER should be sensitive to the other persons feelings and just say what they need to say GENTLY!!!

Another Creepy POF Story Posted: 5/24/2009 6:18:57 PM
What do you mean "ANOTHER" creepy POF story????? Are there more??? I think you can meet creeps anywhere....on POF, on paid dating sites or in real life!!! I've met some awesome people on POF so I can't complain. When meeting anyone, you have to listen to what your instincts are telling you. Common sense.

Are you getting tired on Internet Dating too? Posted: 5/12/2009 9:43:30 AM
I'm not as tired of internet dating as I am of meeting men with whom I feel no chemistry!!! I have met alot of real decent men in my area from POF...but simply not the one for me. I find that very frustrating.

I don't chat with people for a long time!!!! Maybe a couple of messages, one phone call, and we meet for a drink. I prefer to get to know someone by spending time with them...not chatting over a phone. To each his own, I guess.

I consider the first MEETING as just that...a meeting....I don't want to plan a movie or going to a friends party when I haven't met the person...After the first meeting and we are both interested...then we plan the FIRST DATE!!!!! We have come to know each other during the meeting and can plan something fun that we both like to do. That's how it is for me anyway!!!

Geez Tuckers Dad....You're an attractive man!!! You shouldn't be having problems like that!!!! Maybe you need to reexamine YOUR approach to women???? Are you coming across as too intense or needy????? I have met men like that, who come at me too fast and I just run!!!! I like to take my time getting to know someone, not him planning our wedding after ONE date!!! Try a different approach....Make them come to you... I'd come to you if you were close by!!!! LOL...Anyway, don't give up!!! You seem like a sweatheart and that would be a shame...

dating as a interview... Posted: 4/28/2009 12:07:47 PM
Wow...I must be living in another world because I've met some fine people on POF and NEVER once felt like I was at an "INTERVIEW"!!!!!!!! My meetings were casual, laid back, friendly, in a safeplace and the conversation just flowed. A few were shy..it took awhile for them to open up, but when they did, I found them interesting and articulate...So I can't relate to this subject.

A ex as a roomate and dating?? Posted: 4/28/2009 12:01:57 PM
I don't see anything wrong with having an ex as a roommate...as long as you are JUST roommates. But you have to be honest with the person you are dating....You can't say you have never been lovers!!! That's just deceitful...I have a male roommate and it is amazing how many people assume we are sleeping together just because we live together!!!! I consider him like a brother but people form their own opinions. I really don't care..I know the truth. But do be honest with your partner...

Psycho Ex-BF Posted: 4/28/2009 10:22:59 AM
Taking the law into your own hands is never the answer. I understand the passion behind it, but obviously the ex has some serious mental issues that kicking the sh*t outta him wouldn't solve. It would just make things worse for her and her child. She needs to do things the legal way and let the professionals handle him. I agree that a restraining order is just a piece of paper, hard to get the cops to enforce. But she needs to play by the rules or maybe risk losing her child. I'd get a lawyer and let him sort threw things and do what he advises. Err on the side of caution..

I would take it slowly...After 4 years there is that chance they could reconcile...Maybe just aim for being a good friend who is there for her and keep your heart under wraps for awhile....until you have a sense of how this whole thing will play out. I don't want to see you get hurt...and I'm sure it's not her intention to hurt you, but that could very well be the outcome..Good luck...I hope everything works out for you.

widows friends accepting new man in her life?? Posted: 4/28/2009 10:04:40 AM
In my world, a true friend would be happy that you had found a new man in your life that made you happy. Your life will go on and you deserve happiness. Death ends a life not a relationship....You will always feel close to the man who you were married to for so many years, but I believe he would want you to go forward and live your life to the fullest. Basically, it's only important what YOU think and feel. There will always be someone out there, living in the past, thinking you should just be alone. Hold your headup, and do what makes you comfortable.

I can pin point exactly when our relationship started to go wrong.....red flags flew up .....flag after flag.. after a few months of dating...and I CHOSE to ignore them...Ultimately in the end...he turned out to be a pathological liar, stalker, and just one sick puppy!!!! It's been 2 years and I am still looking over my shoulder...The reality is I wanted him to be who I needed him to be...not who he really was!! Hard lesson learned but I'm glad I found out when I did and not after I married him...

Your Bucket List Posted: 1/12/2008 5:40:58 PM
My bucket list would consist of things in my life that I have been afraid of!!! Since I was dying anyway...I would go skydiving, go up in the tallest elevator I could find...Travel in an airplane for more than 3 hours without a stopover, tell SOME people honestly WHAT I REALLY THINK...Bungy jump, rack up a credit card (just joking) etc etc. More importantly...I would spend time with my kids and close friends telling them how they had enriched my life!!! How having known them made me the woman I became...I could leave this world easily after that information was shared...Like Tim McGraw sang....Live like you were dying.....

Why are so many profiles photo challenged? Posted: 12/17/2007 9:47:52 AM
I, personally, have a problem replying to men with no pics...And NOT because I judge people on the way they look, because I don't. I just like to see a face so I know who I'm talking to!!!!! Otherwise, I feel like I'm talking to thin air. I respond to ALL men who post a picture...Some I've met and dated....some are just friends. But at least I can SEE who I'm talking to!!!!
