Maybe so. As I recall he did sometimes get real short-tempered. But he certainly hadn't been banned when he started that thread. I was always curious if in fact he met his mystery woman and what became of it?
What red-blooded male wouldn't miss Sweetlyscented? And Demonfairy, I don't see her much of late.
Strangely though, the one whose absence most mystifies me is Grandpensees (sp?). Last I recall, he started a thread in which he was dithering over meeting some woman from "a mediterranean country." After that, we never heard from him again. He was a fun guy, though. Anyone ever hear what happened with that?
Hope you'll be okay Ooby. But you're a resourceful guy, and if anybody is likely to come through unscathed, it's you.
I'm just glad my NYC flight and hotel reservations are three weeks away. If the MTA were shut down when I arrive I don't know what I'd do. Whole lotta walking, I guess.
Oh dear oh dear, Pedro....today is August 27, the date of the Amsterdam CS Get-Together. And I notice that, by accident surely, you have mistakenly placed this Chat Thread in the CS Get-Together Afterglow category? How unfortunate.
The rolling-on-the-floor-laughing bit, that's exactly my feeling when I see people who paid premium prices to become walking billboards, just to impress....total strangers.
The wine glass is simply a sig I adopted, my way of saying Cheers! to all and sundry. Several others do the same, among them lifeisadream. I was inspired to do so originally by member PuppyPower, who signed all his posts with pp.
The numerical value is something else. Hint: Today it is 21. Tomorrow it will be 20. This is a singles site, after all. Ya dig?
I'm not sure. I think it might be Lucy. I know my friend's pet name for his baby, now 4, is "Booger." I've a feeling she'll want to outgrow that by age 10.
Hi Tere. The thing about online dating is, it's much the same as regular dating, in terms of finding The One. Sometimes it does work, but more often it doesn't -- same as regular dating.
It does have its upside: you can do it at your own convenience, from the comfort of your own home. But it also has its downside: those with whom you share interest might be quite far away, making any real relationship a challenge (to say the least).
I think online dating, at least as a method of originally meeting someone, is a valuable resource for many singles. Not too many years ago, saying you had met a sweetheart online would have raised some eyebrows, but it's quite common now, and so there is no stigma.
One fellow I work with met his wife online. (Both lived locally, and might have met anywhere day-to-day; they actually met on a Toyota discussion site.) They met, married, had a baby daughter. But last week they filed for divorce. So I think there are no guarantees, online or in-real-life. Sometimes coupling works well, sometimes it doesn't. I don't think it matters much how two people first became aware of each other.
I really don't think "the vast majority" of Profiles are fake. It probably is an unhappily high percentage, maybe 20% at a guess. But when you combine that 20% with another 30% of "forgotten" profiles (people who joined and forgot about the site when they didn't find true love in the first 30 seconds), that leaves no more than half the Profiles representing real people you could actually contact. And sadly, some of those (the faceless ones) are dupicate profiles of game-playing jerks.
Just like in real life, ya gotta winnow the wheat from the chaff.
Hi V. I think the answer to your original post is, we men are kinda slow and stupid. It takes us a while to figure out that France (or Mexico) is not next door to, say, Tennessee.
Get older? Gee thanks. My birthday was last week. Sigh...
I'd guess both are "normal." And I like both, but I gotta admit, in sequence. Cuddling is wonderful (you don't have to be going to sleep to do it), but when it's time to go unconscious I tend to do so face-down, which makes cuddling impractical.
Hey Jay. I notice the original post said 6 hours ago and this one quoted says 5 hours ago. Quick date? Or was this one an addendum to the first, before the date?
Turkey does not taste like ham, or pork. Nor does chicken taste like bacon, nor unspecified "poultry" taste like beef.
It's all about misleading the public through marketing. People want beef at a cheaper price? Here, here's some "beef" bologna that's mostly chicken. You want ham, but want it cheaper? We got "ham" for you, made of turkey. Bacon cost too much? Try this "bacon," it's lots cheaper. It's not actually bacon, as it's made from turkey renderings instead of pork, but it's so much cheaper!
All "substitute" meat products are gonna suck. Just my opinion.
