What do you think?
Posted:
6/28/2009 8:02:16 AM
I think it's part of an ad-campaign to raise awareness about identity theft. Usually a birth certificate is the key to getting additional ID in the same name and once you have those you're good to go. It's probably a government endeavour to prompt people to be more careful with important documents.

Is it Creepy to watch/be watched while someone sleeps?
Posted:
6/28/2009 7:49:39 AM
That doesn't sound as weird as you and your room mate watching each other
I never thought of comprehension as a talent but whenever I visit the forums I gain a greater appreciation of it.
JLK and his roommate don't watch each other sleeping. They both hold the same opinion of watching people,
they care for
, sleeping and being watched by the person,
they care for
, while sleeping.
If someone I love is sleeping next to me, or in my arms, I will glance down at him from time to time, maybe drop a kiss on his forehead/temple, but I don't gaze continuously at him. I must admit I get a sense of peaceful bliss when my SO is sleeping near me. I love it when he murmurs or sighs in his sleep; so cute.

Hair gets shorter as you get older?
Posted:
6/7/2009 3:15:23 PM
If you notice, when mature women go on makeover shows they are generally advised to wear their hair shorter because long hair tends to age older faces. As we age, our skin loses collagen so it looks less plump. Long hair can make faces look more haggard.
In addition, ageing can result in hair loss and hair becoming dry and brittle. Wearing your hair shorter can disguise the fact that hair is not as thick and glossy as it used to be.

A question about main profile pics.
Posted:
5/31/2009 9:48:58 AM
So I was just trying to understand. Can you ladies show me reasons that I may not be considering?
They purposefully upload such pictures to weed out the idiots who can't grasp the very simple concept that people know people of the opposite sex in a purely platonic sense?
I suspect someone who gets bent out of shape at the sight of a picture with another man is the same kind of person who would fly into a jealous rage if you were innocently chatting to a coworker, the mailman, the barista at your local coffee shop... the list goes on.

ladies playing the game of chess
Posted:
5/31/2009 5:14:17 AM
I know how to play chess but I don't enjoy it because I am mediocre at it and I am not used to being mediocre at things.
if you know how to play or would ever like to learn how to play or find it difficult or fun please let me know.
Despite that, I am fairly sure this offer ^^^^ doesn't extend to me as I am not available to date and some five thousand miles away from the OP and this thread smacks of a thinly veiled attempt to use the forums to fish.
In any event, I would love to play chess well and by that I mean real chess, that uses double attacks, pins, skewer threats etc. and not the bizarre space invaders style chess some people play (exchange every single piece save for a Rook each and then race to promote a pawn).
Maybe I should check out the Chess sites again.

Lip gloss
Posted:
5/26/2009 1:53:02 PM
What's that about? Is it common?
Yes, very common. The early lipglosses were extremely sticky. Imagine trying to kiss someone with that crap smeared on their lips. If you wear the newer kinds of lipgloss that feel like lip balm then educate him on the fact that not all lipglosses are the same.
I wear a lovely Hawaiin Tropic one that I can barely tell is on and it tastes like berries. When I have been kissed, whilst wearing it, I've been told I tasted like I'd just eaten a fruit flavoured popsicle.

I dont understand what your beef is...
I think his beef is that every woman he meets, freaks when she discovers he is still playing house with his ex.
OP, if that is what you choose to do then that's your prerogative but don't expect any new love interest to be perfectly ok with the situation.

The sexual history talk...
Posted:
5/23/2009 11:56:16 AM
Assuming both parties are STD free then sexual history is irrelevant in my mind.
And you know this because people are legally obligated to have STD tattooed on their forehead?
Maybe you look a little unsavoury and they don't trust your assurances that you're clean. They want some background info to form their own opinion.

Muscles on a girl?
Posted:
5/23/2009 7:48:23 AM
Sorry to muscle in on a guy question. Just thought I'd let you know when I was a more muscular I would get a LOT of attention and compliments from guys. I am thin at the moment and I don't get half as much attention from guys. I know it's not scientific but anecdotal evidence is better than none.
I had more of a Jennifer Garner in Alias look (which I am working to get back again - injury = lots of downtime). She's appealing because she has muscles but is still feminine. Much better than the emaciated, wiry, veins a popping look (think Linda Hamilton from T2 or Angelina Jolie (scary veiny forearms and knobbly knees)).

Why do you need my email address?
Posted:
5/22/2009 2:57:08 PM
They might want the option to pick up your emails and respond from work. Many employers block internet access to dating/social networking sites but they can access hotmail, yahoo etc.
Just create a web based email to give them.

why would u not date a guy friend?
Posted:
5/22/2009 2:05:14 PM
Do not think to yourself that eventualy she will see what a great guy I am, because she won't.
Horseshit!!! She already sees what a great guy you are. That's why you're
friends
. If she didn't think you were a great guy you wouldn't be in her life.
Friendship isn't the booby prize. I have friends that I have known for years and, hopefully, will know for many, many more. Long after whatever halfwit I am dating is ancient history.
Sadly, however, attraction is indefinable. You can no more choose who you are attracted to than you can choose your sexual orientation. It is what it is. You don't float her boat.

I can't believe you're 41. Pray tell, how does clicking on a thread make someone a pervert? Moreover, how does it make someone porno?
By the way, if you're bored maybe you could spend your time in more productive pursuits like gaining proficiency in the one language you speak.
Particularly, the difference between their and there and that condom isn't spelt with a u. Some punctuation and capitalising wouldn't go amiss either. Especially, if you intend to become one of those losers that maxes out his three thread limit in Ask a Girl everyday.

Serious Member? or Serious Player?
Posted:
5/22/2009 3:33:17 AM
I read a thread that said when the site introduced the Serious Member option it then proceeded to grant free "serious member" status to a number of members.
If it's true then it's the funniest thing I've encountered on PoF thus far. I think it is completely lost on Admin that by giving Serious Member status for free nullifies the point of the Serious Membership. Particularly as no thought seemed to go into who would be granted the status and I have seen a number of profiles who have this status and are, quite clearly, anything but serious about dating.

Whats up with 'kissy' faces on profile pics?
Posted:
5/18/2009 12:53:36 PM
I suspect they do it because it makes the face look slimmer. When you're pouting you usually suck in the cheeks a little bit, making the cheekbones look more defined. It could also, potentially, hide extra chins.

Honesty
Posted:
5/10/2009 12:22:30 PM
So what, you want a woman to tell you the same thing as Andy?
Just wait a bit I'm sure one will be along to oblige....
Make way, one is here and as N8 Dawg predicted, I am going to second Andy.
I'll also add that, whilst you are obviously hurting right now, ranting about
all women
after your experience with one is hardly productive. I'm sorry you went through that, I am going through something similar right now but I have better sense than to start a thread criticising all men because of one worthless SOB.

skin cancer
Posted:
5/9/2009 6:59:08 AM
In addition to what Meoowzi wrote, which is quite correct, you will note that Ismene elaborated in message 6.
The instances of skin cancer are linked to overuse of tanning beds and intense periods of sun exposure during short holidays in very sunny locations where they attempt to get as dark a tan as possible in as short a period as possible.
I never understood why women risked cancer and significantly aged skin by sun worshipping until I noticed how white women croon over other white women when they come back off holiday.... "oh look at your tan, you look so healthy, you're so brown..."
Apparently, the short term appeal is worth the long term risks. Me, I wear factor 30 sun block every day, even in the UK.

Something wrong with MSN chat
Posted:
5/5/2009 12:56:15 PM
That "rude f.uckwit" will act like a "rude f.uckwit" if you two were to talk on the phone, or met in person regardless. Again it's not the IM service, it's you who is picking los
Errrr, I think you'll find we're not picking losers because we decline their request to move to MSN, hence the chagrin that inspired this thread.
That said, I am not sure why you are confusing general dislike of talking to people on IM with people slating IM services? I don't think anyone has criticised IM, just certain people's use of IM.

Something wrong with MSN chat
Posted:
5/5/2009 12:40:55 PM
Stick with younger, more educated and up to date ladies.
^^^ Today's idiotic comment.
I am over 30 and use MSN & Skype all the time. I prefer VoIP for most conversations now, however, I admit to disliking IM conversations with anyone new for the following reasons.
1) Death of the conversation
Usually when someone wants to move to MSN it's because emails are taxing them to their verbal limits. In an IM conversation the extent of their contribution is
cool, yeah, lol, lolz, lmao
or any combination thereof.
2) Crosstalk
Guaranteed, I will be conversing with some impatient idiot who can't wait for a written response before moving onto the next subject or saying something else. Result, a mismatched conversation where one party is still attempting to respond to something that was written 13 lines up and the other party is now happily wittering on about what they're going to eat for dinner, or something equally inane.
3) Is he dead?
The IM participant who decides that it's perfectly ok to walk off mid conversation leaving you hanging for a response. Is it that hard to type
"brb"
?
4) Multiple Conversations
Another variation of the rude f.uckwit, described above, who decides to conduct several conversations at once. This results in long delays between responses and, if their typing isn't up to scratch, the one word non-conversation mentioned in 1 above.
For the above reasons when someone suggests MSN my heart sinks as I either have to educate them on proper IM etiquette or live with it and I can't live with it.

why iam not getting companion?
Posted:
4/28/2009 1:06:10 PM
LMAO! Your pulling my tail right?
No, not in the least. If someone sent me a rose, I would take it to mean that he's talked to me long enough to decide that he's going to stop fishing, for the time being, to see where this thing with us goes. Doesn't mean we're getting married, doesn't mean he's going to change his status to not single/not looking but it sure as heck
should
mean that he's no longer sending introductory messages to every single woman that appears on his daily matches list, ergo cyber commitment.
I think, Cowboy, that
your
language barrier is the difficulty here. Maybe what's confusing you is that my post wasn't peppered with patronising "darlin's" and "pumpkins."
OP, don't worry about sending your roses out on first contact. Just learn from your mistakes and make sure your first messages, from now on, don't have such cyber (yes Cowboy, cyber!!) tokens of affection.
Also, dial it back a little bit. You're coming across as desperate. I can understand the loneliness that comes with being in a different country, so far from your friends and family, but you sound like you want an instant relationship and that may be what is putting the women you contact off.
If you want private message me with an example of the kind of first message you send and I will give you my opinion.

why iam not getting companion?
Posted:
4/28/2009 12:33:50 PM
but the way you write is an immediate turn off
I agree, if someone is raised in an English speaking country. For the OP it is a second language and he writes and, I imagine, speaks it a hell of a lot better than most English speakers could converse in his language. I, personally, have a lot of respect for someone who can study and hold down a job in a country that predominately communicates in a second language.
OP, I'm not sure why you're not having much success in real life but on PoF I suspect it's because you're coming on too strong. You've been a member less than a week and you have zero roses. Are you sending these out on first contact? You are aware these are sign of cyber commitment(?) You shouldn't send a rose to someone until you have struck up a rapport with them or, at the very least, been conversing for a while.
Also be sure not to send generic first messages. Often referred to as a cut and paste message. Do a thread search on first contact/no replies to read past threads on this subject and, as others have mentioned, the all important profile review.

Why do people come to Dating sites to look for Friends?
Posted:
4/26/2009 10:37:24 AM
POF is primarily for dating (it seems). So I'm just curious about people who use it for friends.
Just out of curiousity are you intending to go to Facebook, MySpace and Twitter and ask the people on there why they use it for dating when it is primarily a networking site for making friends?

Posted:
4/26/2009 10:17:29 AM
Yes, I do find it strange that people would use dating sites to find friends but POF
isn't
just a dating site. Whilst the majority of users here are looking to find a match, the fact that the site has the option to list yourself as
"not single/not looking"
clearly demonstrates this site is intended for single people looking to date, as well as single people looking not to date and people who aren't even single at all.
Now I appreciate you have your panties in a bunch because you zeroed in on a chick only to find the object of your affection wasn't interested in dating but thems the breaks. Pick yourself up and move along to the next Fishy.

rekindleing an old flame! my sons mother
Posted:
4/26/2009 3:51:09 AM
well i appreciate all the different views onthis ubject for sure! i gues the only thing i can really do is follow my heart and see where things go from there! but believe me people i will be cautious!
It reads like your mind is made up and no amount of comments here will change that. I think I have a lot more respect for that then someone who allows total strangers to sway his opinion.
I am glad you will be cautious and, to add to the caution, here is my opinion. I have met women like this. They either don't like to be alone or are afraid to be alone. As a relationship starts to sink they scout around, desperately, for a lifeboat they can leap onto. In my opinion, you're the lifeboat here.
I have two male friends whose exes (the mother of their children) consistently reappear in their lives when their current relationship is crumbling. The script is always the same - I realise now that you're the love of my life, I should never have left you. I was young and stupid, I got scared, overwhelmed, I didn't realise what I had, I was wrong to hurt you .... (select the statement, or statements, that apply to you). As soon as they're in a better place they throw them back on the used pile.

Scared of computers ?
Posted:
4/25/2009 1:42:16 PM
I find this quite often where I work. Not just with computers but with complex cases. I try and empower people to do things for themself (so they don't have to wait for me to do it for them) and they're not in the least bit interested. I have concluded it's laziness as opposed to fear. It's easier to let someone else do something for you than to learn to do it yourself.
Of course, I work for the government where even a special needs baboon is guaranteed a job in these uncertain times. When you have that kind of security there's no need to evolve with the times.

How do you know her comments are anti-semitic? Maybe, in an incredibly inarticulate way, she was referring to the fact that you might not be interested in her because she's not Jewish.
Back when I had pictures up and my profile wasn't hidden, I also used to receive messages from white guys who wrote "you're hot, too bad you're asian." Actually they wrote
your
too but I can't bring myself to misspell it. They weren't racist, just ignorant and assumed, because I was asian, I would only date other asians. I would respond and set them straight. Usually something along the lines of "actually, I have no problem dating outside of my race/culture but I do have a problem dating someone who makes offensive assumptions."
Edit: Dammit, took too long writing this and Lori already pointed out the obvious.

It is British vernacular and whenever I've heard it, it has always meant either not looking for anything serious or not interested in a hot and heavy relationship. In short, someone she can have fun with but doesn't want to have to worry about all the heavy relationship type drama. A lighthearted relationship.

Bad Boys
Posted:
4/19/2009 11:49:42 AM
harley riding, unshaven, t-shirts and jeans, blue collar look with white collar bank acct...???
Why does this make them a bad boy? Are the only valid jobs white collar jobs? I know of a guy who spends his days in a t-hirt and jeans. Doesn't drive prestige cars and may one day buy himself a Harley. He's so busy he may go a few days without shaving and he has a large bank balance. He isn't a bad boy... he just owns his own construction company and doesn't need to wear a shirt and tie to earn a lot.
In my eyes he's a hardworking, stand-up guy but, apparently, in the eyes of some other men this is what characterises a bad boy. In which case, no wonder every
nice guy
on the planet thinks women go for bad boys, apparently the criteria is just not shaving and not wearing a tie everyday.

Do you love your job?
Posted:
4/19/2009 11:15:12 AM
"Do you love your job?" If not ,then why do you stay?
I'm not quite sure what you're espousing? That everyone must have a job they love. There would be a massively high unemployment rate if that were the case. Not everyone is lucky enough to have a thing they love that could potentially be a career. I don't.
People constantly aske me, if you could make money doing what you love what would you do. I love sleeping and eating... do they pay people to do that? I don't think so, so I do the next best thing. Work at a job, which, whilst I don't love, I certainly don't hate, for one third of the time and that means I can spend the other two thirds doing what I like to do.

He gets 20 responses... he can post as many as he wants... that is how we end up with threads over 21...
Errr, no. The way a thread exceeds 21 is when it nears its limit but then several posters post in quick succession. These posts appear on the thread because the filter hasn't registered that the cutoff point has been reached.
After the opening post there is 20 responses allowed irrespective of how many the OP takes up himself... or herself in Ask a Guy.
As for the original question, it would appear it's a somewhat convoluted rant intended to justify the OP's desire to date younger women. I guess he's feeling like a dirty old man.

psoriasis and hydrocortisone
Posted:
4/16/2009 1:03:24 PM
I think this is a case of a little knowledge being a dangerous thing. You've heard that steroid creams thin the skin and immediately concluded that's a bad thing. Psoriasis is a condition which causes rapid skin cell reproduction resulting in red, dry patches of
thickened
skin. For that reason it is not inappropriate to use a steroid cream, like Hydrcortisone, because it will thin thickened patches of scaly, dry skin.
The problems with steroid creams
only
occur when they are applied to non-affected areas because the skin in that area is thinned when it doesn't need to be thinned. As long as you're careful about ensuring you don't treat areas that are not affected you should not suffer any ill effects.

ID checks

Welcome to free personals on the Internet.
Errrrr, I don't think it has anything to do with the service being free. Background checks aren't run on dating site members at all, even on paid sites. That's why people have to take personal responsibility.

What do you really talk about?
Posted:

thats fine but what are some of the great things to talk about when you chill out in Bars and Social places ?
Did your life stop the minute you met this person/these people? Your life is an ongoing process, as is theirs. You talk about what has happened to you since last seeing them.
The only time I have this problem is when I spend wayyyyy to much time with a person. Then you can't really update them on what has happened in your life since you last saw them because they were there when it all happened.
But it also does depend, to a large extent, on common ground. A friend I regularly meet for a drink enjoys many of the same films/tv shows as me. We can spend several hours discussing the current season of Heroes. Someone who didn't have that common ground would be looking for an escape route.
People should be friends/girlfriends for a reason and it's not because they are conveniently placed or look good. If you are running out of conversation with these people maybe you have made the choice of friendship/partner for superficial reasons(?)

Emails you'd never read

I've decided to stop reading emails with the subject title
"Hi"
. As you can imagine, the body of the message is just as unimaginative.

Player?
Posted:

Not at all. But I've heard of some women sending men whom they wish to woo naked pictures of themselves over the internet while writing something in their profiles that comes across as completely different. Does this mean they are wholesome and prime dating material and should still demand the respect of men? Or should they even bother complaining about why they tend to end up feeling used and heartbroken?
Errrrr, maybe it was too early in the morning for you Jimtash. My post was intended to illustrate the fact that titles are subjective and actions that earn the title Player, or indeed, slut for one would not for another. I didn't expect someone to challenge the definition of slut nor do I intend to debate what characterises a slut.

Player?

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=player(true%20definition)
^^^ Pretty much sums it up for me.
That said, just because someone calls you a Player doesn't make you one. It's highly subjective, similar to slut. A puritan would deem someone who had sex, with one partner, before marriage, a slut: does that make such a woman a slut?

is that a California thing?
Does he look like a surfer?
Maybe his surfboard ankle leash snapped off in a gnarly wave and he's too doped up to notice he's still wearing the ankle band.
