i'm glad you found her. i hope you'll both be very happy. how long did it take, if you don't mind my asking? i've only been here a few days but i'm no stranger to dating sites. my sister has been on one for a couple years and she's had all kinds of luck, both good and bad on hers.
some of the finest people i've ever met are from across the pond. i can understand wishing to avoid potential difficulties that arise from long distance relationships, but to rule out entire continents, as if the people there have no human value at all, really makes no sense to me.
also, america is a huge place. there are more miles between some states than there are to some other countries. some people should never leave their own neighborhood i guess.
i think it would be pretty hard to miss something we never had but wondering what it would be like to have it or wishing to have what we never did is probably pretty common.
"As the subject states, we need some action in this forum. Now, I have lived in WI most of my life, and I _KNOW_ that all of us lovely cheese-heads are more talkative than this site makes us out to be."
yep, you're right. i'm going to hazard a sincere guess here, but it could just be that wisconsinites, being the warm and friendly bunch we are, might prefer actual spoken conversations? or perhaps it's the strong wisconsin work ethic limiting the time people have available to spend at their computers? i personally enjoy the forums and think the wisconsin formum could be fun and informative if we could just persuade people to participate.
i'm usually a thread killer too but if we work together we can get this forum going. maybe we need to pick up some ideas from the international forum and expand on them here. i also read the very active forums on another popular dating site if i just want questions answered (and someone there has already asked it) because their members participate much more than here. i get a few ideas there but hesitate to put them here because i'm beginning to doubt anyone would even really see them and those who do might not reply. there's got to be a better way... let's find it.
social smoking is usually in a setting where a person who doesn't smoke regularly will because there are other smokers around them. it's hard for some people to not smoke, for instance, in a busy tavern or bowling alley or at a party, even if they don't smoke at home every day or at work.
the only plan i have is to look at some of these old threads and bump the ones i like best. my opinion isn't the only one that matters though, so i'm hoping to hear from more of you here soon
this forum wouldn't be lame at all if anybody would show up. a couple of you have made some really good attempts. i hope a few more people realize it's here and stop in, even if only to say hi.
i always believed what they say about cheaters... if they'll do it with, you they'll do it to you.
some people have no business being married. if it was as hard to get married as it is to get divorced, i think a lot of people would be more serious about the commitment before they do it.
i find that my mood improves a lot when nature is reborn every spring, but i refuse to let winter prevent my enjoyment of life. the transition from autumn to winter was very difficult in my last relationship. it's very hard to be with a person who refuses to speak or leave the house, except to go to work, just because winter's gloom depresses them. it can definitely have a negative impact on a relationship.
i don't think i could ever date a celebrity unless i was completely ok with shattered illusions and willing to accept him for the real person he is. i'm not easily impressed anyway, so real is always much better. it would be especially hard to date someone famous if he thought he was *all that* just because he's famous.
a well-known supermodel (who shall remain nameless to protect her privacy) has relatives and a second home in the small town where i live. wearing jeans and no makeup with her hair tied back and wandering around town as if she belongs here, those of us who recognize her that way see she's a real person, just like the rest of us. most of us are happy she feels at home when she's here, but then again this is a nice and very welcoming town regardless of one's status.
i don't know that her being a celebrity would make her more datable or not when you see how she really looks (pretty in a wholesome way but not outstanding by any stretch of the imagination) and how totally down to earth she is. if she's exceptionally datable, it would be much more for her wonderful personal qualities than her celebrity status.
i wear a necklace my ex bought me because i like it and probably would have bought it myself if he didn't. i wear the watch he bought me because i didn't have one. if i didn't wear this one, i'd just have to go and replace it. i don't get rid of the coffee mug he gave me either because then i'd just have to buy another one. seems silly to replace what i already have, especially just because someone else doesn't want me to have it.
my pic is a little more than a year old and even though the only major difference is that my hair is longer now, it still looks like me. i don't have many pics of myself and most i do have i have a goofy expression or the wind is blowing my hair right across my face. the one i posted is the best representation of myself that i have available.
i don't know necessarily that too many people are trying to mislead anyone. it's very possible they just don't have many photos of themselves from which to choose.
