Well, I have a buddy that bought 100 3/4 karat diamond necklaces, and he would pass them out to women he found attractive. He had some cheesy line he'd say when he gave one to them (though I can't recall what it was). It definitely worked for him, but I do believe that this is out of the price range of most men.

Well, what makes me interesting is my ability to tell a story about the mundane and make it sound like something exciting.

To bad I can help with the good looking part. Unless you consider that I'm mostly a good person, and I'm fairly proficient at seeing things (when I'm wearing my glasses) fall under the guidelines.

If it was me, I'd change the main picture to the one of you actually in air. It's eye catching and could attract people to click on your profile. And, since you say you like honesty, I'd lose the pic of you in the bandana - you just don't look happy in that pic.

Other than that, I think you did a fine job. Heck, I wouldn't mind meeting you myself!

Sounds to me like they are now victims of racialization, so they should be allowed to attend.

Originally I started coming here because I'm a man of my word. A friend actually came up with my screen name and "basic" profile (though that tome that is my about me section is all me).

After a while, I kind of got into messaging people, and I even had the pleasure of meeting a couple of people from here. But as the years have dragged on my expectations have changed. Now, well, I like looking at the pictures people post (both in the profiles and the forums), chatting if the opportunity arises, and "poking the bear" in the forums. If I can make someone laugh or smile, well all the better still.

However, being a man of my word, I have to stay here until I meet someone - which should be a lesson to all of you to be careful what you promise.

Well, in truth I need more information to answer the question.

Are we mutually exclusive yet? I mean that conversation does need to occur (as I found out the hard way, but in essence she was correct).

Have, as a couple, we been engaged in an "open" relationship or engaged in the act of "swinging?"

Am I being cheated on, or being cheated with? If it is a breech of trust in a relationship, it is a lot different than being "the other person." Especially, if as the "other" I have not been informed of a previous commitment.

Does the act of cheating involve relations with a friend or relative of mine? (I'm pretty sure the reaction to this would be a lot different than if it was just a stranger. I'm not saying it would be acceptable to me, just that my feelings in the matter would have a little more rage involved.)


All questions being asked, if we haven't had "the talk" yet, I would be more apt to be forgiving, as really part of the blame would fall to me for not getting off my butt and showing my true feelings. Post talk though, we're done - unless of course it is done in an open relationship where we've set ground rules. As I say though circumstances do matter.

I'm only going to say this once....


Vegetables have no place in desserts!!!

After reading the "about us" section of their site, I'd say these aren't credible sources.

What exactly is the point of this article?

Nothing is free. Everything has a cost, it's just in some cases you can't directly see the cost. For example the energy we receive from the sun comes at the cost of the sun's very life. Fortunately for us, we won't be around to see it collapse under it's own weight once it burns up its fuel supply.

If my math is correct, then it was about midnight here (on the 27th), so by a strange coincidence, I'll probably joined you.

Better yet, tell them they are going to Mars and the set the controls for the heart of the Sun.

Mom always told me that one day I'd turn the right corner and run into the right woman, and it's true.

The problem was, she was walking and I was driving.

Tell me again about how it's easy to get sex without marriage??? Seriously, because I haven't had sex in so long the very idea of it is now intimidating to me.

Women have an easy time getting sex when they want - all you have to do is ask and 90% of men (married or not) will say "Sure!" We actually have to work at it, date, buy dinners listen to boring cr*p we don't care about and still get told "no." I think you might have the sexes confused on this one.

Well, I just put on that easy smile I have and think to myself "how long until this conversation is over." When it's done, I thank them for taking the time to chat and move on to whatever is next.

I always try to keep the eye rolls and grimaces in check until after I've left. Just because I'm annoyed doesn't mean that I have to be rude and be annoying back.

Here's some honesty for you.

First, when talking to people you may be interested in, don't use text speak. Take the extra time and write out everything you wish to say. Sure it takes longer, but it is vastly more likely that you'll get a reply if you show you took some time.

Second, make sure to say more than a sentence or two. I don't know what you've written folks, but if you say something witty or open up about yourself a little bit, you'll have better luck.

Third, if the self description part of the profile isn't filled out with more than "I'll tell you later" or "hi," the odds are the person you're emailing doesn't actually exist - or if they do they are just trying to get you to come to some other site, probably porn. Also, check when the last time they were on - if it's over a month ago, they probably aren't checking their messages anymore.

I'm sure others will chime in and give you better advice than me, but I hope this helps in some small way.

I just can't see living in a place where the atmosphere isn't breathable and the temperatures never get above zero (Fahrenheit or Celsius). Now, if I could breathe and go outside without a jacket, I'd be in!!!

I'm not one to correct the grammar police, but without actually knowing to whom he was referring, your correction may or may not be accurate. If there is a scale of measurement, then there is a worst, and, in theory, this fine man here could easily have seen and had it. - Logic police on the prowl.

Because that couch is too heavy to move by myself.

If you want to sound more "American," just use expletives more. The hard part is learning "where" to put them into the speech pattern.
