I was just informed by a friend that someone posted an ad on the above-mentioned site, looking for me. Apparently, I'd spoken to him a couple of weeks ago, when I was out singing karaoke. I looked up the ad & he said, "I think there was something there." The only one I can think of was a guy whose teeth I complimented. rolling on the floor laughing My friend laughed & said, "You have a stalker!". Have you ever been saught after this way or looked for someone using it? IMO, this is just too funny! laugh dunno

What rule? Mentioning a website? People do it all the time, even other dating sites like POF which I think sux, e-harmony which I think has an inflated self image thinking they know what people want in a mate, etc.

I wouldn't worry too much about the rule. I thought it was just for other dating sites or if you're trying to promote a site which you're not, you're just telling a funny story about one.

On topic though. Wow. wow
Have heard of this happening but not to anyone I know. What could it hurt to meet him for coffee? Would be like meeting someone here for coffee wouldn't it kind of? Make sure someone knows you're going to keep it short and sweet first time. Can't hurt though and if he took all the trouble to put an ad on Craigs's list? dunno dunno
Let us know how it goes.......heart1

I had 2 that met me at the gym and since I do not workout at the same time every day, they had to keep coming at different times until they found me again. banana

Probably only joking about the "stalking" comment, but I been there, took the class and have the shirt. (I was being followed around the suburb and city that I lived in. Here's the skinny on it:

it is only "stalking" if it is " persistent." Looking for somebody and/or asking somebody out on a date, for example, is a rite of passage, as the law views it. Now, if somebody keeps asking for a date after being told "no", and makes personal comments "more than once or twice", then it CAN be considered stalking, or at least, harassment. The laws are fairly ambiguous about this because it is still recognized as common that a woman, for example, would play a little cat and mouse, be coy, etc... and I understand this, because what a dull, unimpressive world and life it would be if it were stoic, I mean, what do we have to do to make sure we are not being seen as a stalker--get somebody's permission ahead of time to give a compliment or ask for a date? The whole thing is so cattywampus it sucks. But then, there ARE real stalkers. So, what are ya going to do? dunno

Love the optimism! laugh

Seriously though, if you have an inkling that there was a possible connection to someone - why not take the opportunity and at least respond.

I remember working in a restaurant and one time a customer left his phone number and asked me to meet him later at a club - honestly, I couldn't even anything about him so I didn't go. Sometimes though, we do have those moments when someone does make an impact on us, even if its a short period of time.

I've never looked for a woman on craig's list.



Looking for:

One woman who's legs reach the ground.

Will consider two if you're part of a set.
