Do you think there should be laws against people who trick you into sexual encounters!
Posted: 1/5/2008 8:59:18 PM
To the OP:
I hope you are joking about this posting. Non consentual sex i.e rape is a serious offense and the person should be punished but having a law that would punish someone if they tricked you in having sex????

It's a choice someone makes whether they want to have sex or not. Two consenting adults are free to do whatever they please. It stinks to be lied to but in dating we all take chances. I'm sure there are men as well as women out there like this.

Don't mean to be rude but that's by far the dumbest thread I've seen on here

Happy

asking to borrow money on first date
Posted: 1/1/2008 11:58:06 AM
My favorite subject of all on here. I have gotten that a lots of times on here. Once a girl I was talking to stopped talking to me because everytime she would send me a message about how she needed money and I never responded to her 'money' issues. When we would talk over the phone she would never ask money but only on text messages.

-One told me that her car broke down and needed $300 to pay for towing.

-Another one to go out with her friends on her b-day

-For cell phone because it was shut off

What's next? A boob job?

What a luck I have .Seriously I'm about to give up

Dumbest thing said to you during a chat/date.
Posted: 12/30/2007 7:56:05 AM
I have some good ones, but one very similar to the OP. Met this gal in Boston after 1 week of yahoo'ing. She told me that because all the good looking guys are jerks, she decided not to date any good looking guy and lower her standards in everyway; overheard by some tables next to me.

This gal was very pretty, had only a High School and told me that I was slacking since I had put my PHd on hold. Explained to her I was deployed overseas for 5 months but she still thought I was a slacker; not sure where she even got that idea.

Anyways during the date she asked me if I would bring her on a vacation so we can get to know each other (she was not joking). Needless to say there were no 2nd dates.

She lives close so sometimes we still see each other at dunkins or trader joes.

More to come ...

When Dates Attack: Anger Management ... next, on Geraldo!
Posted: 12/29/2007 4:24:41 PM
I think the guy you went out with that blew on the bartender either really has anger issues or he was just trying to impress you with his manliness which turn out to be immature as far as im concerned.

I once went out with this gal who considered herself laid back and non confrontational. My word, we were in a restaurant in Boston and she has had one too many drinks. I saw one of my colleague with her b/f who came and gave me a hug. She turned red and ask me who is this girl, oh she has to hug you, what a b*itch. I was waiting for the glass of water to land on my face :). She got so pissy (after 2 dates by the way). Needless to say we don't see each other anymore. But it was a scary site for such a beautiful girl. I got the storm once we were in the parking lot. Geeezus

Hey that happens, it was more of a funny experience for me.

I would say dont let that get to you. Take this

interracial dating
Posted: 12/9/2007 7:54:47 PM
Not all people are attracted to someone from another race . I guess stereotyping is one of the reasons. It really pays to get to know someone trust me.
An open minded woman who doesn't mind dating out of her race will definitely find you attractive. I don't differentiate, a woman is a woman just with a different skin tone. Always good to learn about new cultures. Interracial is not only black/white. Just consider the kaleidoscope of skin tones we have on this planet; that's what makes it beautiful. So if you want to date a girl, just ask her out, the worse she could say is no but your effort was there.

horror stories from online dating......
Posted: 12/9/2007 6:22:24 AM
Chatted to this girl and finally met after 1 week, everything was good during the date excpet she kept making remarks about how she needs money for x, y and z. She told me how guys cheat on her and how her fault was to jump into relationships too quick and she is not looking to do that, well that's all good.

So after the date, I dropped her to her appartment , then the text messages asking for money continued. She claimed to be a simple girl yet her b-day was coming up two weeks after and she kept sending me a website where they sell coach handbags and how she liked this bag (worth $358). I asked her why she was asking me money and she said well I thought we were committed !!!!!!!!!! and that was after 2 weeks.

She stopped emailing me and sent me a text that said and I'm not joking 'WE are through, I think we should break up' and how she found this guy that can buy her whatever she wants. GEEEZUS. Wished her good luck.. Wait 5 weeks later she contacts me and wants to get back together

attraction should go both ways.right????
Posted: 12/9/2007 5:51:17 AM
Belly and Frenchkiss, I think you guys should just date. You're already arguing like married couples haha

Seriously, if you ask an opinion you shall get one from different people. If you open a debate, you can't just expect positive point of views. Got to be able to take it.

Ok now a for both of you

Why don't tall men choose to date tall women?
Posted: 12/9/2007 5:42:37 AM
Tourture,

I think that from my experience tall women on POF at least would specify that guys need to be taller than them. Also some shoter women 5-5'2 generally like taller guys maybe for security reasons.

But again it's the trend that I see on here at least. I have dated girls who were 5-8 and up one of them was 6'2, I had no problem doing so; not because I chose tall women only, it just so happened that mostly tall girl contact me. For me as long as we get along well and have good times, I don't care if she is 7'0 tall or 5'0 tall.

Have a great day :)

Just face pictures...
Posted: 12/8/2007 4:34:31 PM
In total honesty, I'd rather not even look at a picture first. I look more for a mental stimulation i.e a good convo. So anyone who keep a good conversation is good for me even if you don't have a picture originally.

The whole point about 'getting to know the person first'

Condoms

Somehow, I thought that at 42 you would know that kind of answer.

You can get the morning after pill right from the pharmacy no Rx required.

Good Luck

If someone emails you with misspelled words and bad grammar, do you respond?
Posted: 12/8/2007 3:53:31 PM
My take and I'll make it quick.

Granted we are not writing for the newspaper or Time magazine. Mistakes happen. I try my best to correct them, just like on IM's we type and sometimes one letter missing no big deal. What I don't consider good is when someone write 'dat' instead of that as an example. But anything else is game.

Depends what you're used to

I think you need to learn patience and dating.

In 5 hours you can't form an idea that all men are the same. Don't you think women do the same? I j=have had the same experience as you with a woman but didn't just blast all women out there.

Just ask him for Christ sake. It's a simple question 'Are you interested in meeting again?'

Stop whining :)

Ok back to dating, where are the nice and honest women on here

ok im not ugly what gives?
Posted: 12/6/2007 5:57:11 PM
First of all ask yourself 'What am I looking for?'

I know a lot of guys on here looking for a relationship. What I mostly hear is that a lot of people on here are players.

I think both men and women on here fail to write what they are really looking for or just plain they might not know what they want. Don't be vague in your description, be blunt and to the point. Example:

1. I'm looking for a white/asian/black male or female
2. Personality matters more than looks example personality 70% looks 30% or whatever you choose.

I can relate from my own experience that I have contacted women and they were not interested but from their profile there was no real clue on what I could expect. Some stalk you ,some just plain ignore you. So remember be very specific in your 'wants'

Have fun

Curious about why 75% of the men on here never call?
Posted: 10/23/2007 3:19:10 PM
I definitely don't put myself in the 75%. If a good connection is made, I'm more of a voice person than typing. Typing can't show emotion of humor. People might take things the wrong way but with a voice you can joke, get serious, make a compliment etc.

Once a voice connection is made, the next step might be a face to face; even better. All we need to do is be ourselves and just relax; afterall the dating ritual includes a discovery period i.e. emails, im's, phone then face to face. Follow these steps in this order and things will go right. They are probably shy that's why they don't call. Be bold there is absolutely nothing to lose. A good looking girl or guy is looking for the same thing 'love'. A lot of people are intimidated by the looks or some jusy play on their looks. I have sent IM's before when i got the 'window opens', 3 seconds later 'window close' .That's enough time to just look at a picture. As someone said on here, do not judge a book by its cover. I seek more of a mental connection a stimulating conversation; i guess in a way that's what we all want some just put more emphasis on looks. Maybe that's why some guys also don't make the call.

Just my 2 cents :)

why are men such lying pigs!!!
Posted: 8/15/2005 7:56:49 AM
It's generally not the rule of thumb to associate one bad experience to the whole picture. As someone posted earlier women can do it too so it's a matter of how honest you are. Bad experiences happen to all of us men or women. I have a freind who went out with a a girl he met on here; very beautiful woman. They hit it well she was telling him how much she loved him etc; then one week later she meets another guy on here and did the double life and finally went for the money with the other guy. Well it happened twice to him on here itself. Now he didnt call ALL women liars. I'm sure it happened to some ladies here but please dont be so negative; try to take it easy and go along.
