Re: Online Dating
IRC was actually the first chat program I used. I also went to chat rooms, although the one I went to most was for teens and had monitors. I never met anybody, but I did become good friends with a girl I met in the chat room. We'd call each other, and she even mailed me a birthday present. In hindsight, not my best move, but eh. What I planned on telling my parents if I didn't get to intercept the mail that day I have no idea. They had no idea about this girl, and assumed everybody I was talking to online was a 40 year old perv.
Sigh.
PS what is D&D?
LMAO. I once got a casette tape from a guy in Australia. He made me promise that I would never make love to anyone while listening to the tape. It was like a bunch of Dire Straits songs. I'm pretty sure he WAS a 40 year old perv.
Do they expect sexual favors during dinners out with friends?
Back then I met two dot-commers & a guy fresh out of grad school. I e-mailed with others, mostly dot-commers, but three CL strikes and I was out. I still had to weed out many pervs.
Today I would have to spend at least twice as much time weeding out the pervs and the ones who post penis pictures.
I was completely against it before my first marriage (2004). It seemed too much like newspaper personals at that time - something to read for fun but not actually participate in.
After my divorce (2007) I jumped right in to it, and met my SO on eHarmony.
Confession: I filled out an online personal ad because I like answering those fill in the blank questions. It's also one of the reasons I like auditioning for game shows. I love those fill in the blank questionnaires.
Kore's dating life never ceases to amuse me.
You really don't read the personals, do you? lol Drug and Disease free.
Actually, they have lots of drugs (heh. perk.)
Me too! Love it.
They're paying for her company, but whatever consenting adults want to do is out of my control.
10y could be quite the earner for me. I know exactly how this works from all the TV I watch.
I met one of my HS boyfriends in an AOL chat room. We met at the movies and he was late, so I stood outside while my friends went in asking every stranger if they were "Tim". After the movie he brought me to Friendly's where he stuffed his face with chicken fingers as I just sat there staring at him.
Apparently I was desperate, because we dated for a few months after that until he kept telling me that the boys on his baseball team were wondering when I was going to give him a BJ.

And all this time I thought you were serious about having a backup husband for me.
Oh God me too. lol
This is gold.
Okay, okay. I was under the impression you wanted a little extra spending change. lol
I do have that one guy for you...
The big dogs are all in the process of getting divorces, so you'd need to act quick. And be willing to date a 50 year old guy with gray hair in the pubes. The little dogs are players, but you could potentially reform them. The medium dogs are fug.
I was thinking Dungeons and Dragons.
How do you know this?!
Well, I don't know exactly. But I'm assuming.
Grey hair on head = gray hair on pubes, no?
And I have a feeling that pubes grow gray quick, but I could be completely wrong.
Could someone in the room enlighten me?I really hope someone can answer your question.
I just can't wait to see what it becomes renamed next week.
Cannot...stop....laughing...
I was curious (and I'm not at work), so I googled. Apparently, pubic hair doesn't gray as quickly as head hair.
I've been told by women in their 50's that their pubic hair kinda fell out, and there isn't much down there anymore. Not sure if the same applies to men.
Even when I try to quit the Nest, I can't.
Heh. So was I. Although I hope they'd be free of that too!
