Who is dating who here in CS? (948)
jlb684: I just don't like lists here of any sort. Never have, never will. Not when it comes to listings about people here. I've been on some and have been left off of many, and I don't really care for it in either case. As I've witnessed over my time here, no good is ever served. Someone feels left out and pops into the thread with a "what about me?" sort of plea, invariably followed by that person's name being added next to the current list. I haven't read through all of this, so I am not referencing ANYONE if, during the course of this thread, someone had a "what about me?" entry. I didn't see it, ok? And early on in this one, I echoed another post by saying that I, too, was dating "Account deleted" because at that time it was still seemingly innocent. Maybe I'm in the minority here, and I know the initial posting was light-hearted and meant nobody any harm. But they always go afoul or someone always feels neglected. It just isn't worth it in the end.
Just my opinion, of course.
Just my opinion, of course.
The thing I hate about lists is always having to remind the list-makers to include me on their lists!
(Except for lists like "Who most resembles Son of Sam?")
Yeah, I find them rather annoying, too, but I couldn't care less if my name's on them or not. That's other people's fantasies about me...and who can blame them for having them?
I think some clever individual was indulging in a little underhanded protest in this thread, while appearing to be cheerleading the whole notion.
By the way, Athens, I sincerely doubt that "Account Deleted" was man enough for you.

spicey1: And this is exactly what I am talking about....I don't like this, I don't like that ...blah blah blah! If you don't like a particular thread subject...don't get into it?
I am outta here....I will come back after next week and send messages to my friends to tell them about the face to face, but I don't think I will come back to the forums, too much negativity.

Wow, Spicey! That sounds like a load of ...
... hmm... negative energy? This thread looked like a pretty decent exchange of opinions before all this head-banging.

He wasn't. He just sat there, night after night, with that empty look on his blank face. I tried to make it work, I really did, but it was like talking to a wall. Besides, he was two-timing me. He was seeing HotrodLarry, too, if I remember correctly. Not taking anything away from Larry....he probably looks great in a dress and heels, but I still found it a bit insulting. Now, however, I have a new love in my life...we're just starting, mind you, so let's see how it goes, but wish me luck. His name is "Fatchanceyousillyoldbroad". This could be the one!

spicey1: I am sitting here reading through this thread and I am starting to ponder something. It seems that all the positive and fun threads get turned into wars. Don't post this, don't post that...yada yada. I mean sure we all make mistakes and some people post undying love, and some people post about heartbreak. Serious threads get turned into jokes and fun threads get turned into fights.
The point of this thread, from what I understand of the OP's statement is to see the happy endings, or beginnings. There are so many people here who are afraid to even talk about the possibilities of meeting someone they have been talking to because they are afraid of ridicule and this thread is just exactly that.
Nfowler aka Nathan and I are very happy right now, and we are looking forward to meeting face to face in less than 2 weeks. We don't have any doubts about our feelings and are sure that once we see each other face to face the spark that we feel will just grow!
I am just frustrated with all the crap going on in CS.....let's respect each other and stop with all the negativity.

Shirley49WV: Your welcome and I was just trying to help you out when I saw that you were upset. It was a lot of fun for some and not for others. I hope that you didn't lose a friendship over it. I am sure that it was not done to hurt anyone. And I hope your friend perhaps reads the whole thing and understands it.
I also agree that the people involved should be the ones to ask to be added to lists. That ensures that they know they are on it and no ones has any hard feelings.
I wish you luck fine lady on what your looking for.

I appreciate your concern, that's more than you get from a lot of people! I'm not sure people got what I was trying to say but I wasn't exactly upset, however I did get irritated that someone just put me on list but then didn't care to see if anyone was asking for correction, which was after all promised. And at second thought... some fun things just get a bit too personal, intrusive or silly. Turns out Gilly has had a reason to stay out of the forums so it's ok... I mostly wanted to make a point... some well meaning issues can wreck or disrupt other people's lives.
All I'm saying is that whoever starts something should take responsibility for it too. ------ This thread is Archived ------

Hm, well any relationship takes at least two people...
And some people don't get irony nor the fact that human nature is contradictory.

I am with you.
I, too, thought this was a nice, thread about beginnings. I am always glad to see success stories here they give much Hope IMO.
I was really in the Cheering mode, then all of a sudden there was this post that people had left, that was thoroughly confusing and then the negativity that followed really changed the brightness of this thread to a dull brass, which was totally disheartening.
If I were in a relationship with a CSer and it was posted on a list, I would be Honoured and Flattered that someone thought enough of us to list us as a beacon of hope for others.
If the information were incorrect or no longer valid, then a simple small sentence or correction to the list is all that is needed.
I really find it sad that, others can, by being negative, turn something bright and hope inspiring into something that would make new comers read and wonder why they joined, CS with this kind of negativity, or make them fear to let others share in their new found joy, with another CSer in the future.
After all, it seems to me, the whole reason for most of us, joining CS was to expand our options in finding a Mate.
I also, seem to remember something in early Parental teaching that we SHOULD BE WILLING to be happy for Other's Happiness, as WE would WANT others to be willing to be happy for OURS.
So with that in mind, I hope we can all in the future, see things in a positive light rather than all this negative, mean spirited fighting, that there has been all too much of lately, here.
There has been so much negativity, I find myself having more enjoyment on the OOPARTS web site, rather than expanding my options for my search of a mate.
Spicey1, You are one of the ones I hold much admiration for. I don't know Nathan, but I am SO very happy for you both and I wish you both ALL the JOY and BEST WISHES two people can have for their future.

The13thWarrior: I began dating "Rhianeleri" after a couple of exchanged messages here on CS. Though we originally made contact through plentyoffish.
I'm delighted to say she is now my fiance

Not as fragile as you suspect, J., in a year being here, my psyche build up resilience to negativity and agendas.
Whatever your reason is, I can't say I blame you for being cryptic.
Thread dynamics is a factor to consider. For a sensitive type that is.

hi all,
TGIF!!! just got back from a week of being pummeled with exams and discovered to my horror that my happy/hopeful/optimistic thread morphed into an all out epic warzone!!!
first off, my deepest apologies to anyone who have been erroneously added to the list and hence been offended and hurt. my intention for this thread was one of giving hope to all of us out there who are still looking (including me). there was never any ulterior motive whatsoever to hurt or be clever or stir anything up..
as you can see from one of my earlier posts on first page, this thread was an open invite for all the besotted couples out there to declare themselves online. but by the same token, it is also open to anyone here on CS hence, if one thinks whatever was posted was wrong, one may copy the list, revise as appropriate and repost. i was quite happy for anyone to correct the list as it went along, as it was when the list started.
once again, my apologies to anyone offended – my intent was not to offend but to give the rest of us who haven’t found that special someone yet – some form of hope and encouragement.
my sincerest gratitude to all those who supported this thread and its original intent.
