Tirnan, took a quick look at your buddy's POF profile last night - thought it needed a lot of work but was too busy vomiting to help.

That bad huh? Ouch.

Somehow I knew that was coming out wrong. Just a nasty case of food poisoning last night.

Morning sickness starts that way too.

 

[JAA]

Good god....could we have anymore people in the underground.

Still paranoid, huh?

Yes, I am locked in a small room, sitting naked on the cold floor with nothing but a night light and my crazy thoughts.I just thought the ideas was to keep it more low key......what ever.

27 members is a lot? I thought the idea was just to move things out of the path of the general population of trolls, lurkers, and iSpys.

Maybe it's just me.....sorry. Not trying to ##### out or anything.Just getting close to my comfort level......not to mention I don't even know half of the people.Has Otis joined yet? If so...which one is he.....part of the problem is I don't know who is who.Carry on as you like.....

Otis joined...e-mail starts with an "r" if you want to find him. And it's not just you. I also don't know who most of the people are, which is why I started a thread asking people to put it in their profile...which everyone then proceeded to ignore.BTW, I'm going to put my pic up there for the next 15 minutes, for you. Will then take it down before I leave for the evening. ETA: Pic is too small to see anything anyway. The sepia tones don't help.

damn missed itIf having too many non-daters on there bother the folks and stop them from being open, definately drop the non-participaters like myself and others. If yall cant be open or are worried, no reason to have it.

Sorry, didn't mean it to sound that way. IMO it's great to have plenty of people - it's just that I didn't/don't know who a large % are. You've identified yourself there, so no worries on my end. Again, apologies if that sounded rude.

only rude part is keeping your pic off

Update:

First in regards to the idating, looks like I definitely have a date setup with the hot chick on match.com the next chance I can go to the cities. Also may have one this Tuesday with a cute blonde pharmacist who just moved to town. We'll see though, I'm getting pretty discouraged though and here's why...

Thought after sending rude drunk text on Tuesday she'd leave me alone. I thought wrong. On my way to baseball practice yesterday, expecting a call, I answer my phone without looking at who it is. It's her. Wants to go to happy hour. I tell her I obviously can't, but then she mentions she heard through her sister at lunch (every Friday the lawyers in my office get together for lunch) that I mentioned I only had ball that night. Great. With no time to think of anything I get her off the phone by telling her I'd call later. Call after practice and lifting with the intent of saying I wasn't feeling good because of the heat from practice and lifting (BS - but I'm bad at lying), but she says she is babysitting anyways right away and has been drinking so I basically tell her oh well and say I had made plans with my roommates to go out so it's not a big deal anyways.

Head out to the bar with my roommates for a few drinks. After about two hours there I get a phone call and head to the bar lobby to take it so I can hear. As I'm talking I all of a sudden glance up and this chick is standing right there! I'm pretty much and look at her like wtf? Not knowing what to do I point to my phone. She then proceeds to go out and hit on the bouncer while I finish my phone call. I'm kinda freaked out. I see bouncer take her up to the bar so I think I'm all right. I fininsh my call and head back upstairs to grab my friends. Unfortunately she's sitting next to them - talking to some other dudes. I tell my buddies we have to go. However, she sees us, breaks her convo, then proceeds to tag along to the next two bars. She then tells my one roommate's gf that she's there with me - making it nice and ####### awkward. I push to leave ASAP but my buddies are too drunk and having too much fun making fun of her. I'm too drunk (god bless having half the bar staff at every bar as your clients) and had a prior incident which forbade me from walking home alone. Finally, at bar close, we head home and she miraculously doesn't have a ride. About halfway there I state I have a game the next day and need to get to bed and literally jog by myself the rest of the way. I get home, shut my bedroom door, and head to bed. I hear everyone come in, my buddies pound on my door so I go out and hang out a little. Chick is still there. I don't want to be "that guy" that just bails so I have another beer, then state I really need to head to bed. I go into my room, shut my door thinking it's locked, and make a return phone call quick. After awhile, I'm half asleep and I hear my door open - my door itself sucks and sometimes the lock doesn't click in all the way. I open my eyes and the chick had quickly crawled across the floor and tries to crawl into bed with me. I lose it, ask her what the #### she is doing, and tell her to get out. She tries to kiss me and I push her away. She then starts to cry and leaves my room. I slam the door and make sure it is locked this time. I'm then woken up sometime later by someone (her, I'm guessing) trying to get in. Roommates tell me in the morning she was up smoking weed and doing a little harder stuff with them.

I then get a phone message today from her apologizing but saying that it's dumb I kicked her out because I'm attracted to her and it's my mistake, but she's open to still seeing me.

Seriously, this #### is freaking me out. I've never experienced anything like this. Someone sneaking into my bedroom is not cool. I'm pretty much fed up and don't care anymore about the sister and figure if she ever contacts me in person again I'm going off on her (just going to ignore any phone calls/e-mails). Figure maybe pre-empting it at work may be the best bet. Sister is very nice so we'll see.

In all honesty, to all you married guys out there I'm at the point where I'd happily trade my situation for some mid-level job, wife you don't mind around, and a couple of kids who aren't #######s.

I'm pretty much fed up and don't care anymore about the sister and figure if she ever contacts me in person again I'm going off on her (just going to ignore any phone calls/e-mails).

See Wozzy, this is where trying to be clever and not hurt her feelings by leaving the door open has come back to bite you in the ###...you've made it almost impossible to say "sorry, I'm just not that in to you" without looking like a real jerk...All the same, you're out of options so rather than waiting for her and "going off" I would suggest you quit trying to be cute and you just tell her a relationship is not going to work between the two of you...if pushed be honest and say she's just too intense or has demonstrated that she's not really your type...Make it clear how you feel and set the stage for ignoring her contact going forward...don't try to "play this", don't try to be clever...just be direct and shut this down before you end up on the evening news...

 

[Disco Stu]

Yep. As everyone told you at the time, leaving her with hope was a huge mistake.

No reason for this to discourage the iDating though. This chick is a little crazy, but a big part of the problem is you misplaying it at every turn. Next time ####### listen to the advice you get here.

You really think this type of behavior could have been anticipated though? Sure a phone call or two, but sneaking into my room??And yeah, while I'm soured, I'm going to plow ahead... May have to stear clear of that bar though and it's a shame because it's a great first date spot - easily the most upscale bar but not too yuppee, great drink selection, crowded but not packed, etc.

 

[Disco Stu]

Random local myspace chick started sending messages tonight. I don't use myspace for dating, but apparently she does...

She was pushing for a meeting ASAP, which kind of caught me off guard. Maybe I got used to the coyness of these younger girls.

Damn it's late...

IMO Myspace is the best site to use. I always had far more success with it than actual dating sites.

Myspace is suddenly picking up for unknown reasons. 30-something divorced moms keep dropping from the sky...A cute, 32 year old redhead sent me a friend request yesterday. We exchanged a few very short messages today and quickly decided we needed to meet. She seems promising but lives in Fort Worth (60 miles from me), which would become a problem if things happened to get serious.

You shouldn't be that surprised...1. she was drunk

2. you led her to believe you were interested

3. she's obviously into you

4. you hung out with her all night, drinking, and probably having a good time

5. she was high

6. SHE WENT BACK TO YOUR APARTMENT WITH YOU!

You shouldn't be that surprised...1. she was drunk

- true, but she didn't start that badly

2. you led her to believe you were interested

- told her I was still in love with the ex and just wanted to be friends

3. she's obviously into you

- well yeah, but that doesn't mean she has to go all psycho - she can't possibly think sneaking into my room would make me want to date her

4. you hung out with her all night, drinking, and probably having a good time

- I ignored her, she was made fun of constantly, and she had to hear me drunkenly ask my buddies how to get rid of her

5. she was high

- true

6. SHE WENT BACK TO YOUR APARTMENT WITH YOU!

- more like she followed, and i ran half the way by myself

Woz. Enough. Please tell me this is shtick. Because if it's not shtick, then you are the most hard-headed, obstinate person I've ever come across. Your excuses are making me insane. Everyone, everyone on this site and oth:e:rs has told you time and time again how to handle something. You continue to ignore every bit and piece of advice you're given. And then when you ignore that advice, ignore every logical action that you could take, you come back here and say you couldn't possibly have anticipated the consequences, and you make an excuse for every single thing you've done. Have you been taking too many mock trial classes? Because instead of soaking information in and trying to learn, all you do is try to debate every statement that another (reasonable) person makes, even though you have been wrong at every turn thus far.That's right...you're wrong. You make the wrong choices and take the wrong actions but then try to justify them in any way you can. You could anticipate the consequences, and you could avoid the situations you get yourself into, but you don't. So you're either ridiculously un-selfaware and obstinate, or you're trying to generate good board shtick.

Back to the fun, please.

i think you guys are being too hard on woz (especially the ladies (especially E_10)). this chick is 100% crazy. if he shoots her an email say "i hate you, i never want to see you again" in the first place i still think she tries to pull this ####.

chicks like this just don't know the meaning of 'no', and it really doesn't matter how you say it.

Well, it might help if he had ever said the word "no"--then we might have an idea of whether she understood it. As it is, we don't know. I'll admit to not knowing that much about truly crazy chicks, but do you think it's just coincidence that Woz is the only one here that seems to be not only attracting, but keeping, them? I've always been in Woz's corner, but he exhausts me. You all can continue to wade through all this crap, and I'll just ignore it and try to assist with the many people here who really do seem interested in meeting and maintaining relationships with non-psychos. There are plenty of people in that category.

The main problem I see with Woz is that stuff is always just happening to him. He seems to see himself as the innocent victim in every situation. Most people don't go through life like this...

attracting crazy chicks may or may not be his fault. sometimes people just have a certain aura about themselves that they can't help.as far as this chick goes, the #### he just described in his last post leads me to believe it's more of her craziness and less of his woz-ness that's keeping her around. maybe not though

I agree. I like her hair like that. She's a hair stylist, so I'm guessing she changes it fairly often. Maybe I could swing some free haircuts out of this...

Alright, #####es. 4 pics uploaded, with short descriptions.

 

[Disco Stu]

OK, based on advice from krista and others I've started being upfront about the separated thing with anyone who shows interest. So I'm 32, have a kid, and legally I'm married... let's see how fast these 23-25 year olds run away.

Way to take absolutely horrible advice, guy

Update: Much to my suprise, this doesn't seem to be scaring anyone off.

 

[Slinger]

I just got yelled at by some chick that I met off myspace. Apparently if you have sex with someone you're expected to spend the night. Lame.

1st myspace "chick" looks a bit manly to me, but the 2nd is uber cute Do you have something in your profile that says you are dating/looking actively? How do the myspace women approach you and turn a friend request into a date situation?

OK, based on advice from krista and others I've started being upfront about the separated thing with anyone who shows interest. So I'm 32, have a kid, and legally I'm married... let's see how fast these 23-25 year olds run away.

Way to take absolutely horrible advice, guy

Update: Much to my suprise, this doesn't seem to be scaring anyone off.

I've been saying this all along. They like it that you are confident enough to be upfront. The honestly thing gets you brownie points too.

 

[RageRhino]

we need more pics in this thread!

 

[Bankerguy]

LOL....I just got emailed by a couple. I asked for a pic...just for laughs.

Yeah, not happening, at least from me.

And you're, uh, being honest. About something that is going to come out later anyway. Doesn't surprise me that few people are scared off.

Random local myspace chick started sending messages tonight. I don't use myspace for dating, but apparently she does...

She was pushing for a meeting ASAP, which kind of caught me off guard. Maybe I got used to the coyness of these younger girls.

Damn it's late...

IMO Myspace is the best site to use. I always had far more success with it than actual dating sites.

Myspace is suddenly picking up for unknown reasons. 30-something divorced moms keep dropping from the sky...A cute, 32 year old redhead sent me a friend request yesterday. We exchanged a few very short messages today and quickly decided we needed to meet. She seems promising but lives in Fort Worth (60 miles from me), which would become a problem if things happened to get serious.

Looks like we're meeting for lunch this week...(pic uploaded btw)

She looks adorable, especially in the two pics in the bottom row.

I don't list anything about dating...

Status: Divorced

Here for: Friends

My "about me" is just a quote from Anchorman, and my "who I'd like to meet" is always just an embedded video (was "Brady" now "**** in a Box"). So I guess they're just searching the area for unclaimed men in their age range and then eliminating the uglies.

If I get a message or friend request from an available woman (who's actually legit), I'm going to assume she's interested. These two both sent messages calling my son and I "adorable" or "cuties". Pretty clear sign...

I may have to try this Match.com thing.

If you do, I recommend using a different user name.

Why would I want a girl with no sense of humor or taste in music?

 

[Woz]

i think you guys are being too hard on woz (especially the ladies (especially E_10)). this chick is 100% crazy. if he shoots her an email say "i hate you, i never want to see you again" in the first place i still think she tries to pull this ####.

chicks like this just don't know the meaning of 'no', and it really doesn't matter how you say it.

Well, it might help if he had ever said the word "no"--then we might have an idea of whether she understood it. As it is, we don't know. I'll admit to not knowing that much about truly crazy chicks, but do you think it's just coincidence that Woz is the only one here that seems to be not only attracting, but keeping, them? I've always been in Woz's corner, but he exhausts me. You all can continue to wade through all this crap, and I'll just ignore it and try to assist with the many people here who really do seem interested in meeting and maintaining relationships with non-psychos. There are plenty of people in that category.

The main problem I see with Woz is that stuff is always just happening to him. He seems to see himself as the innocent victim in every situation. Most people don't go through life like this...

Damn

:(

(nothing is shtick, btw... i guess that's why it is so sad)

I agree. I like her hair like that. She's a hair stylist, so I'm guessing she changes it fairly often. Maybe I could swing some free haircuts out of this...

definately looking very cute in those pics

Looks like there hasn't been much action in here the past couple of days. Sorry, Woz, I hope I didn't scare you off with my bout of frustration. I'm over it.

Went to the Cubs game today with an ex-boyfriend and I told him I was looking over a bunch of guys' profiles on here...he said "You'd be good at that." Got to talking about how fun it would be to start my own dating service, but I need a hook...something new that would distinguish it from others. Any ideas?

Stu drove an hour to meet up with some girl that's not his type. How'd it go?

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Update: First in regards to the idating, looks like I definitely have a date setup with the hot chick on match.com the next chance I can go to the cities. Also may have one this Tuesday with a cute blonde pharmacist who just moved to town. We'll see though, I'm getting pretty discouraged though and here's why...Thought after sending rude drunk text on Tuesday she'd leave me alone. I thought wrong. On my way to baseball practice yesterday, expecting a call, I answer my phone without looking at who it is. It's her. Wants to go to happy hour. I tell her I obviously can't, but then she mentions she heard through her sister at lunch (every Friday the lawyers in my office get together for lunch) that I mentioned I only had ball that night. Great. With no time to think of anything I get her off the phone by telling her I'd call later. Call after practice and lifting with the intent of saying I wasn't feeling good because of the heat from practice and lifting (BS - but I'm bad at lying), but she says she is babysitting anyways right away and has been drinking so I basically tell her oh well and say I had made plans with my roommates to go out so it's not a big deal anyways. Head out to the bar with my roommates for a few drinks. After about two hours there I get a phone call and head to the bar lobby to take it so I can hear. As I'm talking I all of a sudden glance up and this chick is standing right there! I'm pretty much and look at her like wtf? Not knowing what to do I point to my phone. She then proceeds to go out and hit on the bouncer while I finish my phone call. I'm kinda freaked out. I see bouncer take her up to the bar so I think I'm all right. I fininsh my call and head back upstairs to grab my friends. Unfortunately she's sitting next to them - talking to some other dudes. I tell my buddies we have to go. However, she sees us, breaks her convo, then proceeds to tag along to the next two bars. She then tells my one roommate's gf that she's there with me - making it nice and ####### awkward. I push to leave ASAP but my buddies are too drunk and having too much fun making fun of her. I'm too drunk (god bless having half the bar staff at every bar as your clients) and had a prior incident which forbade me from walking home alone. Finally, at bar close, we head home and she miraculously doesn't have a ride. About halfway there I state I have a game the next day and need to get to bed and literally jog by myself the rest of the way. I get home, shut my bedroom door, and head to bed. I hear everyone come in, my buddies pound on my door so I go out and hang out a little. Chick is still there. I don't want to be "that guy" that just bails so I have another beer, then state I really need to head to bed. I go into my room, shut my door thinking it's locked, and make a return phone call quick. After awhile, I'm half asleep and I hear my door open - my door itself sucks and sometimes the lock doesn't click in all the way. I open my eyes and the chick had quickly crawled across the floor and tries to crawl into bed with me. I lose it, ask her what the #### she is doing, and tell her to get out. She tries to kiss me and I push her away. She then starts to cry and leaves my room. I slam the door and make sure it is locked this time. I'm then woken up sometime later by someone (her, I'm guessing) trying to get in. Roommates tell me in the morning she was up smoking weed and doing a little harder stuff with them. I then get a phone message today from her apologizing but saying that it's dumb I kicked her out because I'm attracted to her and it's my mistake, but she's open to still seeing me. Seriously, this #### is freaking me out. I've never experienced anything like this. Someone sneaking into my bedroom is not cool. I'm pretty much fed up and don't care anymore about the sister and figure if she ever contacts me in person again I'm going off on her (just going to ignore any phone calls/e-mails). Figure maybe pre-empting it at work may be the best bet. Sister is very nice so we'll see. In all honesty, to all you married guys out there I'm at the point where I'd happily trade my situation for some mid-level job, wife you don't mind around, and a couple of kids who aren't #######s.

Good luck on the job search. Since when did you have a lock on your door?
