BG, let me know if that pic makes me look bald. I had my hair pulled back, but I'm thinking it makes me look partially bald. Had another up first but it was in sepia tones and harder to see. Maybe I should go back to the sepia.

 

[Bankerguy]

Krista...this may sound really wierd but I like the reverse.....getting chased by woman. I am not a big "chaser" at all.

Waiting patiently in the Underground as I type.

Whats this "underground" I keep reading about?

It's the place were dreams come true....or was that Iowa?

It's where the main participants post pics of many of the girls we are dating and where the come to gawk. Save for some cool people who have helped (Krsita and a couple of others) Not exactly an exclusive club anymore.

You need to mail these to me...I can barely see them.Based on the mini pic.....I would say it might make your forehead look bigger, certainly not bald.You look cute so far.

Hmmmm...big forehead = not good. Will keep trying. Don't have many pics that are so close up you'd be able to see anything, though, considering how tiny the pics are on the profile. No e-mail; it would make me feel like I was iDating.

Good grief...boy you sure seem anti-dating based on some earlier comments and now this. Who ruined you?Well anyway....I am not going to blow sunshine up your ### all night, you look attractive to me. I'm not trying to "wheel" you...just having fun.

Calm down there, skippy. No need to get I don't have the pic there fishing for compliments; I have it there like anyone else, and after repeated requests.And I'm anti-dating for very positive reasons, not because anyone "ruined" me or because I don't think there are zillions of great guys in the world. I'm good friends with every person I've ever been in a relationship with and I count some people here as some of the many really terrific men I know (in an iSense). I just feel like my life is too full and happy right now to add anything else to it.

Sadly, though, the kiss was very meh. Now, if it had been my friend Lisa instead...

6) Cellgirl - Meeting Thursday eve. Phone conversations have been great. She has killer bod, but short hair Here's the good part. She's been a member of e-harmony for several motnhs and the matches they've sent her are under 30. I've probably gotten 300 matches in the same timeframe. This supports my contention that e-harmony is heavily weighted with female members.

Wow...me likely short hair. This gal looked much better in person, definately takes good care of herself. She wore this low cut black dress that nicely displayed an awesome set of puppies. Conversation was great and a lot of flirtling going on. Finally a date that didn't seem like a job interview. She definately jumped up the cheatsheet based on pre-season performance.

Nah...but I did ask her to hold up a sign for a pic for my innernetz fantasy football i-buddies. If you've jumped into this i-dating thing, you know what I mean about juggling prospects. Speaking of which, where are your updates? A PAC-10 grad in Arizona should be making Otis look like a single A prospect.

 

[Keys Myaths]

So, a few updates from me:

One girl that I think is pretty cool keeps pestering me to get on AIM. Great. So, I do tonight, and she's not on. However, another girl that I e-mailed once, and have only a passing interest in IMs me (I made the mistake of giving out the name, thinking I'd never be on). She was boring as hell.

I have one date on Saturday night, getting drinks at a bar I've never been to...well, because I've never been to a bar in Madison. Why not? Well, I'm at a Radisson, and this is my first night in town. Yippee.

I've promised shorty #1 from the underground a date...so I'll set that up for Sunday or Monday night. I know drinks are the standard, but would Sunday lunch be casual enough? Sunday night drinks just sound weird to me.

And, just got a new match that I'm pretty excited about. Good looking, seems extremely intelligent, and jumped ALL over the poker thing (when I mentioned one sentence about going to Vegas).

So, things are going fairly well for me, and I should have a lot more updates soon now that I'm in Madtown.

 

[cubbyMIH]

alright, I keep posting at the underground, but not here and Krista thought I should update my endless pursuit of Otis' like stud'dome............

I think I have to be getting close to running a close 3rd...........

1)first chick was initially titled hispanic beauty..........after a couple of days of texting, she tells me she's fat.........but none of the pics indicate that. I'm thinking maybe she just has "girl issues" with her body. Was supposed to take her to the comedy club Friday night, hit her up Tuesday for drinks. She wasn't lying. Big as a house..........and now I have reservations for the comedy club. Nice girl, outside of her "hugeness" she was a good time. I'll take her to the comedy club tomorrow.......as one underground poster put it.......to practice my "out move" (also read "to NOT be like Woz!) She's 24.

2)Crazy chick. Sends me an email out of the blue telling me it's too bad I won't date a smoker, cuz she's perfect for me. I look at her profile, no pic, and absolutely NOTHING on the profile. I ask for a pic, she sends it, she's cute. Little chat last night, lot of phone talk tonight, lots of chat tonight, including NEW body shot. She's hot. Has 3 kids, little attitude, I think I really like her. Hoping to do the College World Series Sunday. She loves sports and KNOWS sports. I likey and I'm looking forward to Sunday. She's 29.

3)Blind date for Saturday............as if I haven't learned my lesson after Hispanic beauty. Neighbor setting me up with a girl named Wendy. TELLS me she's smoking hot. 37, coming off a divorce, 3 kids. She's a nurse, likes to party.........trying to get a group trip to Vegas to see Def Leppard and others. I'm really into younger chicks (23-30) but I'll see how it goes.

Got another chick emailing me from plenty of fish. She emailed me last night, she has no pic, and we have NOTHING in common. I tell her "I'm not really sure why you emailed me"..........she emailed me again tonight. Won't send me a pic. WADDEVER.

All girls have pix up at the underground except the blind date girl.

[Woz]

Just joined match a few days ago and I've gotten a number of winks from interested ladies so far; only one of which I'm interested in. We exchanged emails today. Is it weird to respond quickly, or do you make them wait and want?

No advantage in waiting.....imo.Just don't sound desparate...you'll be fine.

Agree wholeheartedly.BG, I'll be interested to see what happens with TSB. As an observer, I can't figure it out. You did seem to be really into her, so I hope she'll come around and make her interest clear. Do you think, though, that not knowing what she's thinking makes you slightly more interested in her--i.e. the ol' "the fun is in the chase"?

As for me, I'll put the pic back up at the underground, but it's so tiny you can't see anything anyway. I'll look for another one. I figure it doesn't really matter, so long as GordonGekko's not here to tell me (unsolicited) that I'm a five.

WE NEED A WOZZY BEAR UPDATE!

Update:This is no fun to type, but there's really no updates. I'm coming to realize I'm not at all ready to give anything to anybody yet. I'm just finding no motivation to move on to anyone else. Normally I love all the little nuances of dating - like the phone calls, e-mails, initial approaches, etc. - but now I'm viewing those things like a chore. A very very hot chick e-mailed me the other day, one I'd normally be happy to even be talking to, but I saw she lived like 100 miles away and simply thought to myself, "great, gotta put aside another 5 minutes now to write this chick back." That's not how it's supposed to work. Otis shotguns off 80 e-mails in a sitting and loves every minute of it. I can't do that and without that type of borderline psychotic effort, I don't think I can succeed at this idating crap. What's caused this? Probably a combination of two things. First, that psycho chick scared the #### out of me. Really, that was a rather inauspicious start. Second, I'll admit, the ex still is present in my mind. Bring on the barrage of "Woz is a moron comments," but rational thought and one's feelings don't always coincide and are at times (this is probably one of the only times for me). Anyways, I still have two dates lined up with what look like two very cool girls. Not much else to update though.

Woz,So you aren't ready to date yet, not a big deal... also not a huge shocker based on some of what you wrote. However, look back to your early posts and consider why you wanted to get out there and start dating again. I think you are needing to move on, but you just can't make that seperation yet. Its not easy to break away clean from a long term relationship. You do have to make that break or the ex will forever have your family jewels in her freezer. Based on your history with her ask yourself:1) Is this the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with?2) Is this the woman I want to have children with someday?3) Do I want my future potential daughters to grow up and be as damaged as my ex?If your answer to any of the above is NO, then take the time to get over her and run screaming to the nearest source of other potential dates. I can sympathize that psycho chick scared you. I had a full on stalker at one point while dating between my divorce and new marriage. There are some great women out there though. You just have to weed through the rejects to find the good ones.Your biggest problem, in my opinion, is that you drew a bad date (psycho pseudo stalker) AND she has work connections for you (sis of coworker). You will have those bad draws, look at them as opportunities to get past the BS and help you define what you are looking for in a woman. Now, take a time out to center the brain. Request that your cojones be overnight express delivered and get back to work killer... or marry the ex, whatever works best for you./edit cut out some of the quote string and adding some additional thoughts.You are complaining about the time to email back. Think about the kind of time commitment to pick up a woman in a bar or elsewhere in comparison. I am in agreement about distance though. You could approach that in an easy way such as "Due to the time commitments required as a new lawyer, I really can't travel out of town that far on a consistent basis, however if you want to come to (insert name of town) I would love to meet you... insert random comments about why you may be interested in her based on information in profile, emails etc." I highly recommend you take a dating time out until you can clean up some of your personal damage and then try idating again. To be honest I wish it was in existance back when I was dating. Looking through it with my friend, it seems like shooting fish in a barrel. Women who self identify that they want to meet a guy are waiting to hear from you. You can weed through various personal criteria and then pick through whats left. It seems like a massive time saver, but I am only on the fringe to help a friend out... the practivce may be more difficult than it seems.

tall girl - This girl seemed really interested, then nothing. So i gave her the :crickets: email someone said they used earlier, and sure enough, it started the comvo up again. we will see what happens

Share the email please....for future reference.

Im guessing it was Disco Stu who started it. All i said in the email was :crickets:which is obviously a joke only people here would get. And she responded laughing asking what it meant. I think Stu used this, and it worked for him, so i tried it, and it worked as well!

I think a Sunday brunch date is just fine. Besides, you get to see her in the light of day. Have a mimosa or a bloody mary. Tirnan, that was a great post in response to Woz. Wozzy Bear, if you're not ready, you're not ready. Don't beat yourself up over it...that's what we're here to do.

I had it. I ran my AVG anti-spyware program and then it worked fine.

 

[ditka...mike ditka]

update (its been awhile as i have been sick and not loggin on as much):

polibaby - have hung out with her twice since the first date. She is cute and fun, but there is just somthing about here I dont like. Sometimes i think she just "doesnt get it"...doesnt get what you might ask? It can be anything, it just seems like she has a blank stare sometimes..its wierd. But im sure we will hang out again soon so ill see what sup

cougar - she wants to meet up for drinks asap. She lives out near one of the towns i play softball at that is 45 min from home so she suggested possibly meeting up this tuesday after the game. I plan on doing that. She wanted to meet up this saturday, but im going to the Sox vs Cubs game with buddies that is at 1205, which means we will be drinking by 10am, which makes for a drunk Ditka and probably not the best way to meet her the first time

tall girl - This girl seemed really interested, then nothing. So i gave her the :crickets: email someone said they used earlier, and sure enough, it started the comvo up again. we will see what happens

illini girl - this girl contacted me on plentyoffish saying how much we have in common except for the fact im 5 years older (25 to 20) but I like where this one is going. ONly probalby is she is at University of Illinois for most of the summer, but she is talking about coming home for a weekend to meet me. She is very cute, is 6'0 tall (im 6'3 so it works) and seems motivated. So she could be a good long term prospect.

Blondie - This girl i have had one line emails with for about 2 weeks. Finally i just flat out said "lets stop wasting time sending one line messages and meet up for a drink" to which she replied "when and where". Im thinking she seems like more of a party girl, and lives closer to me, so she might get to meet the drunk Ditka after the cubs sox game saturday...we will see

thats all for me..sorry nothing too exciting.

Couldn't believe when I read the bolded part...a guy friend and I used this for years as our own code for whether we liked a particular person (as a potential date). I'd go out with somebody, and my friend would ask me one question (or vice versa): "Does he get it?" We both knew what we meant by that (no, not that)--if they get it, then we were interested; if not, then they were out. I wouldn't know how to describe it, either. BTW, how is her English? I ask just because you mention the "blank stare". Last summer during my World Cup of Dating, one of the guys I dated was a Bulgarian guy that I kept thinking might be kind of dumb, but he had a FBG-style education and other indications that he wasn't...it took me a couple of months before I figured out that it was a language issue. His English was generally very good, but he had only been here a few years and so there were a lot of American phrases he really didn't get, and instead of admitting that he would pretend he did. Ended up making him seem dumb when he really wasn't. Just thought it might be a possibility with your poligirl...

Is "cougar" someone a bit older than you? I can't remember everyone now. If so, then

If I have time over the weekend, I'm going to try to make a master list of everyone and their prospects, so that we can then just keep that updated. Would be easier for everyone, yes?

Love the updates!

Her english is pretty good, but I think you might be on to somthing with her just not understanding certain things. She has lived here most her life, but her parents pretty much only speak polish."Cougar" is like 7 years older than me, but i gave her the name because she went to a high school we used to play in basketball who were the cougars. =) I dont mind older women...you on the other hand dont like younger guys!

Agree with Krista.If you aren't ready.....GET OUT. You run the risk of leading on someone else if you are still hung up on your ex. You might be creating another bad situation with a new gal.

Thought you were talking to me for a second.I was going to say...do you not KNOW my ex?

 

[Cheesy McGee]

Update:"Works at the same company" (we still met on POF). Crazy amounts in common. Average looking pics though. We might meet soon as well. Not much more to add at the moment.

As in works in the same building? Any way to casually get a closer look before the date?

 

[krista4]

...you on the other hand dont like younger guys!

My last boyfriend was 26, and I dated a guy just before my self-imposed hiatus who was 22. I always like younger guys, but have been actively trying to break myself of the habit. :(

 

[ditka...mike ditka]

i still havent been able to get to the underground yet...am i missing alot there?? I may have to work on that more....

Also, did my pics get posted on underground that i sent bankerguy? Its fine if they did, just wasnt sure if everyones are up there or what?

Also, i think it would be a good idea for Krista to PM me a pic =)

Not even same building. She is a retail bank branch employee. I am a Sales Manager in a Call Center. This really should pose no problems......imo

In any case after BG's little rant last night, I vowed not to share anything else personal here (and I realize I just broke that vow). This is about you guys and your iDating!

...you on the other hand dont like younger guys!

My last boyfriend was 26, and I dated a guy just before my self-imposed hiatus who was 22. I always like younger guys, but have been actively trying to break myself of the habit. :(

well im 25. Thats not young! how old are you anyway?

Krista...it wasn't a rant. You totally mis-took what I was going for.It was sarcasm that really didn't translate too well over text apparently. Was just wondering why an obviously cute and together women is not into dating. The sarcasm/joke, was I assumed/asked who did a number on you. That was it. I would hardly call it a rant......but....

I sincerely apologize if you were upset by what I wrote.

For some reason, I'm getting this message on the underground when I click on a picture:

We're sorry...

Never had a problem before & I can get into & read the text threads. Anyone know what's up?

I had it. I ran my AVG anti-spyware program and then it worked fine.

Ran whatever spyware program I had & also a virus scan - still getting the message. What the hell is causing it, do you think?

I was getting that message for a while, too, and it asked me to type in a code each time to prove I wasn't a spammer. Typed it in a few times and haven't gotten the message since then. I'm assuming it's not giving you this option, though?

It did twice, when I tried to refresh after getting the intial message. I typed the code in, but still couldn't get in. Now I can't even get to the underground; before it was just the pics I couldn't see. I don't know - maybe when I reboot? :technoidiot:

OK....well I'm not sure why Krista's ignoring of my apology is bothering me so much but it is. Anyway, I am truly sorry if I offended you.

I'm going to take a break from updating and posting here. I will check in on the other guys to see how you are all doing from time to time.

GL all.

If you knew that Krista was in fact a dude would that change your perspective?

 

[ditka...mike ditka]

have any of you guys had this expierence with plentyoffish?

I signed up a couple of weeks ago and wasnt impressed with the girls i could find in my area and no one was really contacting me. I went back and forth with a girl a little bit, but i wouldnt even really check the site much. all of a sudden recently though im getting 3-4 messages initiated by girls a day (usually 1, maybe 2 worth messaging back) and im finding alot of girls I havent seen before. has this happened to anyone else? Is this site just getting popular so alot of people are signing up?

I'm willing to pretend to be one if it would help. Seriously, BG, I didn't respond to the apology nor initially to this post because I (1) didn't want the thread to get even further sidetracked, and (2) am allergic to personal drama (though am addicted to other people's, it appears, from my participation in this thread). I just thought we could let it lie.But I'm a bit worried about you, to be frank. A couple of days ago you got really upset with someone that you thought had insulted you (when he hadn't), and now this one... I am concerned that you're going through some bad #### with your soon-to-be-ex and are having a rough time of it. I consider you a terrific iBuddy, and I'd much prefer for you to stay here and let us help if that's at all possible.

Then how's about an impersonal picture of your mammaries?

Wow. Rant?

 

[Mrs. BSR]

Well this place took an odd turn.

Anyway, Woz, I'm not going to call you an idiot. What I will do is reiterate what I've mentioned to you before. You need to deal with your ex, one way or another. It's obviously affecting your everyday life. You can't go on dates and then have her text you, which in turn makes you think about her or worry or whatever. It's not fair to you or to the person you are on the date with.

You'll need to do some soul searching and make a decision. Everything will be in limbo until you do.

Perhaps word has gotten around Chicagoland that you are there.
