Borrowing money after 3 weeks
Posted: 9/7/2009 3:27:58 PM
You can't delete it, OP. As has already been explained, there is an option to edit your post, but it's only available for a short time.

You should have read the rules before you posted, and you wouldn't have this problem. Just like you should have been thinking with your big head when the lady asked you for money.

Borrowing money after 3 weeks
Posted: 9/7/2009 2:59:22 PM
OP, your thread will probably be deleted pretty quickly. It's against the rules to name another member in your post.

Recourse? None. Just like in real life, grown-up people are responsible for their own actions and finances.

Lending money that you couldn't afford to lend to a relative stranger has nothing to do with being a nice guy. It has to do with being gullible, naive, & not really very smart.

What would you guys do?
Posted: 8/27/2009 6:53:18 PM
Doesn't matter what we would do, OP, because you've already done what you would do: go on a dating site as single & looking for long term.

You should put a qualifier in your profile that long term only means as long as she remains your physical ideal, or her term is up.

fool for love
Posted: 8/23/2009 12:19:08 AM

I have sent him five or six emails pleading with him to give me another chance but he has avoided everyone. Part of me understands where he is coming from and part of me knows that is not what I am like


Homey, sending 5 or 6 e-mails is not the way to convince the guy that "that's not what you're like". You've pretty much convinced him that what he suspected is true. He has taken his bunny to a boarding kennel, and changed both their names.

You blew it, and there is no pulling this one out of the fire.

Move on, grasshopper.

Hilarioiusly bad communication blunders/misunderstandings

Would you write a bad testimonial for someone that played you?
Posted: 8/19/2009 9:05:51 PM
4- It's been pointed out by many that the testimonial feature is pointless and even if the testimonials are of a positive nature, they may actually impede a persons dating success.


OP, idoc steve knows what he's talking about when it comes to testimonials. Listen to the master.

OT, no, I wouldn't. It's pointless, petty, and childish.

I wouldn't even if I had been played and, as has been pointed out, you haven't been. Unless there's more to this story...

Well, of course it's against the rules to post personal info & ninna shoudn't have done that.

But OP shouldn't have stood her up, either. At his age, he should certainly know that hell hath no fury... And he should also know where his man parts are located and how to put them into action to cancel a date.

Have you Started an Odd Profile Photo Collection??
Posted: 8/16/2009 9:25:18 PM
I don't have a photo collection, but I belong to a facebook group of women I met on another site. Our group has a thread where we post ridiculous profiles of men who have contacted us or show up as matches. We lol at them all day long.

Let me be clear, not genuine guys who we just don't feel a match with, but the fat guys with bad backs looking for younger women, the sex trawlers, the married guys, stuff like that.

trying to understand the female psychi, help
Posted: 8/16/2009 12:43:59 PM

It's written PSYCHE not psychi.


Yes, it is spelled "psyche", and the OP's question has nothing to do with it. It has everything to do with a doormat & an attention whore.

OP, are you seriously going home with a woman who has told you that you annoy her and she will never go out with you, knowing that once you get to her place, she will get naked in front of you?

You are not trying to understand the female psyche. You are trying to understand your own pathetic psyche. Whatever is going on in your own wussy mind is what's causing you to behave this way.

Unless you enjoy being tortured, put down your purse, find your nutsack & get a life.

The web address for these forums must be very similar to the one for the psychic hotline.

Srsly, OP, do you expect anybody to be able to give you a definitive answer to whether you should end this whatever you call it when you see somebody every weekend for 3 months, with only a few lines of background referencing only one aspect of that whatever it is, and absolutely no knowledge of the parties involved?

Srsly.

courtesy rules?
Posted: 8/7/2009 10:45:15 AM
Why? Why do you people need to actually see in black & white that someone you like doesn't like you? And some of you even want to know why! Are you all a bunch of masochists? Do you also like to hear that your new haircut looks like a squirrel is nesting on your head, that your a$$ does indeed look fat in those pants, your "few extra pounds" is the rest of the world's obese, & do you find your way around your house at night by stubbing your toes on the walls?

Since it seems to be so bloody important to so many men that they be rejected flat-out & in no uncertain terms, I sometimes reply if I'm not interested, depending upon the message and the profile, and I get very few of the nasty rebuttals that many women here use as an excuse for not replying.

I don't need an excuse. It's my inbox and if I consider a message to be junk mail for reasons that I determine, it's not rude to decline to reply to it.

My first contact messages are overwhelmingly read and deleted, and I prefer it that way. I don't understand why anyone wouldn't.

I also don't understand why a woman would think it's any more attractive to whine about things that other people do, and that she will never change than for a man to do it.

I have boycotted Tim Horton's for several years, since I got my leg humped by a young employee who cornered me by the ice cap machine.

Maybe you should have asked her to go with you before you spent the $300.

However, now that you have spent the $300 (OP mentioned it twice, so I thought I should, too, to give it the respect it deserves), how does that preclude your taking a friend instead of the girl?

Physical traits in a man that are not attractive to females......
Posted: 7/27/2009 9:25:33 AM

LMFAO!! THIS from a species that keeps the hair dye business operating...

Hypocrisy thy name is woman.


I wear make-up, skirts & high heels, and I think women probably keep those businesses going, too. Is it hypocritical to not want my man to wear them?

I don't know why it is, but when men colour their hair, it never looks natural. They look older, actually, and desperate.

Just btw, BDJ, how is that not a mullet?

If he's in an English lady, he probably wants to be there. I'd leave him alone. Unless he's yelling for help, and then asking him to come out probably won't do any good. Maybe grab his ankles & give a good yank.

GOLD BALLS?
Posted: 7/15/2009 8:42:05 PM
I've been told I have brass ovaries. But gold balls? Nope. Now I'm kind of jealous.

OP, of course you mean the gold seal thingy that mans you're "serious". As I understand it, some women were given them free when the idea was first implemented. That may be why it seems more women have them.

It doesn't make any differnce to me if a man has one or not, I will contact or reply to him based on his message, profile, and pic.

Now, if I got a nice message from a good-looking guy with a well-written profile & gold balls, I'd be about done here.

Older women: would you date a man old enough to be your son?
Posted: 7/12/2009 11:10:44 PM
I have a 10 years either side guideline, not a rule. If a much younger man, even one young enough to be my son, was smart & witty & interesting enough, & we had enough in common to make me want to spend time with him, I would consider dating & even sleeping with him.

That's pretty unlikely though. Even just considering music and favourite TV, literature, & movie genres before getting to life experience. What are we going to have to talk & laugh about?

Just for sex? Nope. If the only attraction is physical, it isn't attraction. It's admiration & for me, that doesn't require or inspire any action.

How often should men change their pictures on their profile?
Posted: 7/2/2009 8:41:26 PM
Never. Men never change. They always look exactly the same as they did when they were 25, so that pic of them that was taken for the security pass for their first real job is still just fine.

A little less hair, a little more jowl, glasses where there were none before? Details, details, he hasn't changed that much, you should use some imagination. Women are too damn picky, all looking for Brad Pitt.

Their bodies never change, except to become more athletic as time passes. It's a true fact that, although even in the 20 year old pic the body may not be athletic, it certainly is now.

The belly hanging over the belt? The caved-in chest & rounded shoulders that become noodle arms? Nooooo, ma'am, he owns a bicycle and a gym membership. He even went hiking once. That makes him athletic and you should be a little more realistic about your expectations.

Changing your pics will just shock and confuse us at this point. If we see a pic of an actual middle-aged man, we'll assume it was taken when he was 25 and that will skew our whole screening system, so we'll all end up only writing and responding to 30 year old women with pics of their golden retrievers up.

have we met before?
Posted: 7/1/2009 7:38:44 PM
Something kinda like this happened to me, only it was way creepier. I let my married friend use my place while I was at work for trysts with her married lover, who she met here. Yeah, I know, but she's my bff & I owe her a lot.

He added me to his favourites & I sent him a little note to let him know who I am & he said he knew, my friend had told him my username. I didn't reply, just thought he maybe considered me kind of a friend since he was at my house once or twice a week.

He started messaging me, asking about my day & so on. After a few of those, I sent him a message saying that I didn't like the direction he seemed to be going and that I had no interest in playing in someone else's sandbox. He said he didn't know what I meant, I didn't reply, and the messages stopped.

Until she ended it with him. Then he started seriously messaging me. I blocked him right away, but what a creep.

I asked my friend for my key back right after that & told her she couldn't use my sandbox for her playdates anymore.

From a guy with custody of his kid
Posted: 6/27/2009 8:00:36 PM
Everyone's kids mean the world to them, everyone loves and nurtures and protects their kids above all else.

That isn't the same as them "always coming first" or "being my number one priority". I think this attitude that the sun should always rise and set on our kids' butts is largely to blame for the spoiled rotten, self-centred, entitled teens & young adults we see so often.

My priorities change , sometimes very quickly. I think most people's do. My kids are often at the top, especially when they were very young. But sometimes my job has to come first, my sister, my house, *gasp* sometimes I am! Or OMG, yes I'm going to say it...sometimes my relationship needs to take priority over everything else.

Part of raising kids responsibly is to teach them to be self-reliant, to be aware of others, that the universe does not revolve around them, and they will not always be the priority.

Learning those things helps them to learn to prioritize in their own lives, to solve their own problems,and to see themselves realistically in the context of something bigger. A family, a team, a school, a workplace.

I would not date a man who felt that his kids should always come first. Not because I'm selfish or not a good parent myself, but because I wouldn't agree with his lifestyle.

I have to go to bed now cuz I can't wait to wake up.
