Than you had better quickly grow 10 inches taller, dye your hair platinum blonde and get a boob job... quick! Times a wasting!

What's wrong with her boobs?! They look great!

 

[Wenchy]

I have a standing rule to not date other forum members. Too close an environment if things go south, too many people know too many people that don't need to know my personal business. I can remember a few forum break ups a few years back.... not pretty at all.

Best to be friends and possibly meet others...meaning out of the "fold".

I've developed good friendships on the forums but no long lasting romance.

There's nothing wrong with that.

I have met so many people on here. Not for dating, but it did end up that way in one case.

I'm happy here and am moving on.

Thanks to people I have met here.

They are not Anna Nicole Smith size.... But I think that is fine... What hurt Anna Nicole in her hearings to get her money was that she looked and acted like a bimbo. I think she was eventually awarded that money but that was after she died so it went to her daughter.

Hear that, Vrai? Bann says you are too short and your hair sucks!

 

[Bann]

Hah. She can easily change her hair color & poof it up real high and put on higher heeled shoes. The boobs are fine - (well-fitting) foundation undergarments are your friend!

My point is that disqualifying based on a generalization could eliminate potentially good candidates... What if a woman chose not to consider men who wear skirts... they'd be missing out on this...

 

[GURPS]

I skimmed it and honestly, I can pick up inappropriate men who lie about their lives at any bar; don't have to advertise for them.

What am I missing?

[for guys anyway]

shotgun method ....... send msgs to 25 of the most interesting women, see who responds .... rinse, lather, repeat ... met a number of women this way, settled with my wife


I met my wife back before Yahoo Personals [free BTW] rolled into match


we exchanged a couple of messages ... like most women ... a short version of war and peace .... but I asked her if I could meet up with her at her weekend job @ a bowling alley ...... so I did, we hit it off ... that was 12 yrs ago this Feb, we dated for 5 yrs, have been married for 7

 

[GURPS]

...... just looking for a fun guy to go out with once or twice a week.

the latter is probably less stressful

don't you have several of those already ?

 

[struggler44]

Im single, 42 years old, go to the gym 4 times a week, run marathons for charity, own my own 68000 sq ft home with olympic pool in the back and enjoy driving my Lotus on the open highway.
I like puppies, kittens and small children.

I dont drink or smoke and can be any religion you wish me to be.

also speak Chinese, Russian, French, German, Spanish and 7 different dialects of ghetto.

You forgot 'hung like a horse'.

Horse Fly that is....

 

[GURPS]

These days I'd rather hit up wing night with BG and Bob than drive two hours to meet some strange guy.

in my younger days - pre internet I would drive 5 hours to see my GF @ college friday night - then back home sunday

Ditto! (B/F instead of G/F)

I would also be lucky to get a knock on my door at the college dorm to let me know I had a pay phone call. We had 40 gals on the same floor sharing two phones.

This usually happened on a Wednesday.

Go figure, once a week phone call, flowers, letters, and care packages.

Romance is gone.

Text away.

I do know that my brother had a hard time getting a "match" because he is not a college graduate and the vast majority of women consider that a deal breaker.

which in my opinion is stupid ....

..... I by passed plenty of interesting women, looking for some college educated white collar guy working in DC or Rockville etc ........ you could always tell by the attitude of the profile [aforementioned College degree] ... what they were about, then check the listed city, Bethesda, kensington, rockville, gaithersburg ... DC

........

or the ones in Va ... got Harley Ready to Ride ... like that was a freaking status symbol


but I guess it weeded out a lot of stuck up money hungry female - guess they did me a favor

 

[GURPS]

True, but why did he have a problem finding a suitable woman?

When a man treats me like a servant I am gone.

Duh Women .... looking for a status symbol NOT a Mate ....

The matchmakers that be have done well.

IIRC it was a mutual thing ...
