Well, you are a hottie, Jan. Most of us mere mortals don't have to worry about things like our pix being hijacked. Who would want to be saddled with trying to sell our looks?
I sometimes find myself incommunicado for other reasons, but after a while it occurs to me, hey! I haven't had a chance to ogle JAN_is in a while, so I log back on.
Tell her to wire the money to your account and you will buy the ticket for her. It'll be cheaper that way. Also, you'll need scans of her official photo ID, to make sure you get the name on the ticket right.
Heat wave projected for south Georgia for the next coupla days. Me, I think snow makes for better cuddling. But, you gotta play the hand you are dealt, right?
And I wish you the best of luck with it, and with your search in general.
I read your original post. Since you have very specific parameters in mind, I would suggest you are wasting your time browsing singles sites. That's like wandering around a bookstore when you are looking for a specific title. Why not just ask?
Instead, I would suggest more direct networking. You might, for instance, join Mensa. Or other groups whose definition matches or approximates the features you have in mind. Once you've done so, you needn't be an "active" member, but you could use the group's definition as a pre-screening measure.
And while you do seem to have a veritable laundry-list of specifics in mind, I would caution you not to be hasty, either. Consider: all the particulars you have thought of are just that, things you have thought of. Your heart may ultimately take exception.
Keep your hopes up, and keep yourself & your own welfare foremost.
I know little of Ho Chi Minh, and cannot guess what your prospects are, either locally or here on CS. But I do know this: love is out there, and it will find you whether you are looking or not. So you are better off taking care of yourself first. Love, and its serious relationship, will happen whether you are ready or not, so it's best to try to stay ready.
Not to get off-topic here, Peacock -- ok, scratch that, in fact is exactly my intention to get off-topic -- but you might want to rethink your "all-time favorite." Yes, "pretty" is most commonly an adjective. But it can also be a noun. Remember the Wicked Witch of the West calling Dorothy and her pals "my pretties?" Such usage is less common in our USA nowadays, yes, but not unknown, and may persist more in other english-speaking regions.
Yes. I saw it. I was standing right there. I witnessed the whole thing. It was a plane, a big commercial jumbo jet. Not a missile. Not a bomb. Not a Mack truck or a submarine or an alien spaceship either. It was a plane.
This is disconcerting news! Jeeepers is a great guy and a true gent. I hope his situation improves right away. And I hope any who have contact with him will be kind enough to forward my & everyone's best wishes.
I kind of agree, Swiss, but not for the same reason. I don't think most men (most, I said most, I did not say all) are so afraid of fatherhood they would run for the hills. But the way the OP has it, any man would feel he was interchangable with any other man, just a "factor" in an "equation." Not terribly considerate to the potential father, I think, and not likely to spark any serious interest from any serious candidate.
Hi! And welcome back. No doubt you've noticed a few changes, eh? We redecorated a bit while you were out. Hope you don't mind us rearranging the furniture; it's a feng shui thing.
Meeting women (or men) on CS is not much different from meeting women (or men) in regular life, only more so. The key word is "proactive." Basically, on CS, you up your odds by making yourself more noticeable. There's the Forums, of course, but also the Chat Room, the Blogs, the Poetry section and the Games, all of which offer opportunities to converse with others. The more you get involved and interact with others, the greater the chances that something will develop.
