OK, I've pretty much bailed on the idating. Kind of have my hands full with B&M chicks, and kind of just bored with it. But I've left my profiles open... just in case. So today I got an "icebreaker" from a girl on yahoo (a site I have had ZERO luck with). No photo, but profile says she's tall (5'9"), thin, blonde, 26, no kids, never married, and lives very close. And her profile includes this...

In life I seem to be the one that always gets the guys just because of what I look like and I am looking for so much more.. I want looks to just be a added bonus.
:thumbup: though since it's yahoo I'll probably never hear from her again.
 
Got a date with the brit on Friday night. Just doing drinks after work at a pub in midtown. She seems pretty easy going, only got a head shot photo of her though so who knows what the body looks like. Kind of wish they put body type as an attribute at eHarmony. She said she has dated a lot in NYC so maybe she is hot. I will put a pic of her up at the underground now.

 
well, i've discovered a crazy before meeting her this time!

"that works! I'd personally have to say that swamped with school and work would come far before ever checking this thing. Everyone has something to bring you - something to show you and alter your life in some way - but inorder for that to happen you have to be you. If a person cannot understand that school and work would come first then who knows. I have no idea what I'm really trying to get at but it sounds like a lecture which I'm sure you get enough of in school (lame I know) sometimes I just go off on tangents and type whatever I feel. But to be honest I'm not going to go back and erase what I wrote since that would be a message that wasn't what I was truly thinking at that moment and therefore wouldn't be me.

Now that I have said a bunch of nonsense I would like to thank you for getting back to me :]"

freakin wacko

 
The female version of Woz?

Hey. I was passing through and you seem really interesting so I thought I would say hi. My name is Amber, so feel free to check out my little forced paragraph thingy and hit me back if you want to. Promise I'm not a psycho internet serial killer or anything ;)
:shrug:

I dunno...this seems amusing and not all that weird to me. ;)
 
BTW, this thread seems to be dying a slow and painful death... Need some new blood in here, with Stu in a relationship (mostly, probably), Bankerguy gone, and Keys out of the picture. larry_boy doesn't seem to be participating any more either. :shrug:

No... just sounds like something you'd say in a first message. Wasn't this discussed at one point? :shrug: I actually thought it was amusing. Not amusing enough to overcome profile issues though. And it did make me wonder how she became a widow.

Posted this as part of underground update but figure it's safe to share here as well...

First date with "kindergarten teacher" (9/9):

Met at a sports bar & grill in time for the start of the Cowboys-Giants game. I was about 10 minutes early, so I had a table and a beer by the time she arrived exactly on time. I had that happy Wozzybear feeling seeing her walk toward my table. Tall, thin, cute blonde... wasn't just beer goggling the previous Sunday.

She says she wants to bet something on the game and that she wants to bet against the Cowboys. I say fine, how about loser pays for our second date? She says that sounds good.

We eat dinner, drink a couple beers, watch a little of the game, talk a bunch, and enjoy each others company. At halftime we decide to play pool, although we're both horrible. It was fun and made for a good opportunity for casual contact and a few quick kisses. It's a good thing I don't have any hangups about losing to a girl, because she beat me. Twice. She says that's the most fun she's ever had playing pool.

We talk more while kinda watching football. Mostly just fun conversation, but it's also clear that this chick has her #### together. For whatever reason the B&M girls I've met have been much more stable than the iGirls. One example - the past three B&M girls have all been homeowners, while a very high percentage of iGirls either currently or very recently lived with their parents.

The football game is over, my bet is won, and it's time to call it a night. I walk her to her car and we engage in some pretty amazing kissing. We stop and girl is literally swooning. Composure is temporarily out the window as she's giggling and unable to quite put together a coherent thought. I tell her I'll call to collect on my bet and send her on her way.

Great first date. Probably the best one I've had. I felt pretty confident that I left a favorable impression as well. We'll definitely be seeing each other again. Only obvious downside is that we live relatively far apart (45 miles).

 
Girl I'm taking out tonight seems really reluctant to go to a trendy, popular area. Think Applebee's or a small Italian place for drinks is too light?

 
Just talked to this girl on the phone... she sounds very cute. This is the more excited I've been for a date in a loooong time. We're meeting at Applebees (yeah, not my first choice) to keep it light, but I'm trying to look a little more dressy than usual.

 
Got a date with the brit on Friday night. Just doing drinks after work at a pub in midtown. She seems pretty easy going, only got a head shot photo of her though so who knows what the body looks like. Kind of wish they put body type as an attribute at eHarmony. She said she has dated a lot in NYC so maybe she is hot. I will put a pic of her up at the underground now.
RECAP -So I passed her photo around to a few coworkers and took an internal poll asking if they thought based on her headshot if she was skinny or fat and it was a unanimous fattie response. I went ahead anyway and while I am hanging out at the bar this confused fattie brunette starts pacing back and forth and she did not look like the headshot at all since her face looked much heavier and I was about to walk up to her out of courtesy and ask her if she was <GirlA> but fortunately some blonde chick approaches me and asks me if I am <Alias>. So I was saved, but apparently the brunette I met online decided to do a half ### job dying her hair blond.The girl was packing a few extra pounds and I knew from the get go the date was going no where. She was a good conversationalist and we chatted for a while, a few hours actually. And she started getting antsy saying, "So are we going to have dinner or what, you realize a date means dinner." I felt cornered and said yes we could find a place in the area. She goes to the bathroom and at this point 3 hours have past and she asks me point blank, so, o.k. we have been talking for 3 hours what do you think of me? I tell her, look you are a really nice girl but I don't think there is a love connection here. She's like wow you are the first guy to ever tell me that on a first date and I appreciate your honesty. And I am just like :blackdot:The date goes downhill from there, we are at a sports bar and I got both the redsox and yankees game going on and she is like, I am really hungry and think I am going to go home, are you going to stay here and watch the game? I tell her yes, I'm sorry, take care. Woot - free man!!!
 
I felt kinda bad since I did not want to have sex with her because she was heavy, but I told her I did not feel a love connection because she was blond. She even said I will regret my decision when her hair turns brown after a few months, and of course I just nodded my head and was like, you are probably right.........

I was chatting with the bartender after the incident and he was cracking up about all of this. He's like, "Dude do you know how many dinner dates I have been on in the past 6 months?" I tell him no clue, he is like, "5" He said that is 2nd date area. I tell him he must do pretty well bartending here, he tells me he only works there 1 night a week, I ask him what his day job is, and he is like, I own the bar! WOOT the dude is only like 25 and I tell him that is pretty sweet and he is like yeah, he has no problem picking up women and bartending does help.

Some more fals advertising. Nice rack, but she put on some weight since her pictures. Plus she was an animal lover. I turned down her offer of going back to her place. I'm missing those "good dates."

:bag:

Chick is my age, lives in an apartment, and has two dogs, 3 cats, a bird, a snake, and some rats. She'll be thinking I'm the fastest :lmao: in the world when in in reality I'd be hyperventalating and screaming from fright.

Update: Starting to fan cast the pool again. Actually It's the other way around and I'm biting on the casts from several ladies. I'm in open communication with 6 gals and have been contacted by numerous others. Gal one asked me out and then cancelled. She called me the other night to say that her last two exs have reappearred in her life and she needs to make them go away before dating. I asked gal two out on twice now and she's had other plans, yet she keeps contacting me too. She informed me the other day that she won't be available due to a forty day fitness program and then classes until December. Felt like asking why you sprang the bucks for the dating site subscript. The other four all are an hour to three hours away. That said, things seem to be much more promising in terms of my interest level. Can't wait to hear the reasons why their too busy to date but yet initiated contact. I have my theory on this but will save it for another day. Almost forgot and may have already mentioned this, but one gal e-mails me her phone number and then closes me out the next day.

 
ohh...forgot this boneheaded Woz-like move on my part. Gal adds a new pic. I tell her that if that's her mother in the pic (different hair color), that explains where she got here good looks from. The response...do I really look that old? That's a pic of me and my younger sis.

Should I ask her if her sis is single?

Sounds like a case of false advertising (i.e. her pic is not current, she has put on some extra weight) and she does not want to lose any "hot" prospects until she gets her figure back.

:o Ouch. :lmao:Hope you played it off that you were just messing with her. :neg:
 
eHarmony needs a 10 mile option for us city folks. Getting matched with someone 28 miles away is like 2 hours by car with traffic - not gonna happen (i.e. midtown manhattan to Pompton Lakes, NJ).

 
Meeting a new gal today. She rode 10 century bike rides last year so I think she'll be in decent shape.

What's the matter with the suburbs, bub? :thumbup:
 
How do you guys figure out who to initiate contact with? I don't think I'm overly picky, but for some reason I've been having trouble lately figuring out who to write - I can always look at a profile and find a few little things - like "I'm not enough of a traveler for her" - or "I don't read enough books" - stuff like that.

Sounds like you're looking for a reason for her to say no. Get past that. Always remember that she's listing qualities her "ideal man" would possess. We're not aiming for "ideal"... "dateable" will do. :goodposting:

:confused: Honestly, I rarely do more than skim those damned checklists. I check the age & ethnicity she's looking for, as those can be dealbreakers. Kids could be too, but that's not as much a concern at my age as it'll be for younger folks here. The rest I consider to be negotiable. I'm more interested in what she writes in the freehand portion anyway.Pick a couple that look interesting & write them. You need to get your feet wet. Don't sweat the small stuff right now.
 
UPDATE:

I currently only have one account on POF. Match expired and I pretty much exhausted hotornot. I've also seemed to hit a big-time slump so I'm willing to give someone complete access to my POF account. Feel free to change #### around, approach these girls how you'd like, and, if you get a date, I WILL go and document it all here.*I think this could make for some interesting shtick and I can't seem to get these girls to talk past a first response anyways so may as well let someone else have some fun with it.

*I will go under the following conditions:

- i must at least pre-approve the girl since it'd be a waste of both my time and hers if i'm completely not interested

- don't rope me in to buying some 200 dollar dinner or date, i am still a student

- contact me immediately if a girl says she knows me in real-life

So, any takers??

Just read your first few replies Dante... you're an #######.

Hopefully you find some quality there though, just did a run through and didn't see much at all.

OK, I successfully kept this one from ever entering full blown relationship status... only to enter an ***OFFICIAL*** relationship with somebody else. I actually like this one quite a bit though and feel good about moving forward. Weird. :goodposting:
