"It is a numbers game, so you want to date as many people as you can..."

The problem is your time and focus is so split that you can over look someone great because you are looking for the next one. Give each person 100% until you know they are not right and then break it off. You might be the bad guy but it is better to do it as soon as you know rather than play them until you find someone else...

The oldest tattooed mummy is suppose to be from 3400-3100 BCE so that means the tattooing "fad" has only been going on for the last 5000 years at least. That is a long fad...lol

Tattoos are great for weeding out the prudes...lol People should get tattoos for themselves, not for anyone else. As for the religious idea, those some books say "A woman must learn in quietness and full submissiveness. I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; she is to remain quiet." (1 Timothy 2:11-12) along with not eating shellfish or mixing clothing fabrics...They have a huge list of other ancient out-dated ideas that people still try to force onto others.

That being said, your body is like a blank canvas. It is up to you how you want to decorate it. Some people will decorate it daily with make up while others do it more permanent with tattoos. While I like good tattoos, I am not a fan of the jail house styles or making it look like you are a kindergarten art project. But that is my taste, if you like them then go for it. It is always a shame to hear about someone who wants to do something like get a tattoo but they don't because of what others might think...

Not to burst your bubble but the fake profiles just go through liking every profile, doing a little fishing to hook a sucker. But as a free member you can see who views your profile, then look at the likes next to it. Mingle burrs the profile picture and only gives the first and last letter of their name but that should be enough to see if someone viewed your profile and liked it. Not saying that some of the fake profiles don't do that, it is just less of them that do it. Good Luck

I think that is a recent glitch that has been going on for a few months now. I figure I have a wide age range (29-59) but they still send me "matches" for 18 year olds. The only fix I have found is to go to the search section, put in their age and country, then click on the X so I do not see their profile again. Then don't forget to change the age and area of your search back to where you are looking when you are done...

Same here. Likes on your profile does not mean anything so I just ignore them. If I am bored then I might message then if it shows they at least viewed my profile before liking it, but the best way is to send me a message or catch me in the forum here (which I put in my profile if they read it...lol)

My thought was along this line, but more saying that he is a puppy meaning that one day when he grows up he will be a dog. So basically a dog in training?...lol

The problem I see is most of us guys do not get the 'hints' that women throw out there. So to what they see as putting it out there in their eyes might be just normal conversation to guys. I know I have been clueless a bunch of times and needed someone else to step in and decode the hints...lol

It is also going to depend on what type of relationship you are wanting. If it is going to be a physical in person type then you need to consider the travel like others have said. But if you are just wanting a pen pal type relationship then it does not matter where on this earth you are located, especially with internet access...

It was actually intentional as I was typing it...lol The only Valentines bad thing I can think of though is the massacre in Chicago.

That is what I was basically thinking...lol I remember someone (friend, movie character, maybe both) talking about breaking up after Thanksgiving and so I was just wondering if it actually shows up online with people actually doing it...lol

I was thinking about Valentines Day coming up, and I was wondering how much these online dating websites get an increase of new profiles. There should be a total number of profiles listed somewhere, but I was thinking when would be the most increase... Would it be right before Valentines so they could find a date for that day or would it be right after because they don't want to go through another Valentines alone? Just thought I would get another discussion thread going here...lol

I usually start off with some type of small talk, asking a random question to see if it is actually a real person. Then I work my way into some deeper conversation if they seem to want to go there. But it is hard to get into any real deep conversation online, most of the deep topics should be face to face, in person, so you can see their reactions as the conversation goes back and forth...

One other thing to look into is the stem cell injections. A lot of athletes with tears will do the injections instead as it is less healing time. You might not have a place local but I heard about doctors in Vegas I think that set up vacation packages with the surgery.

HIIT is good for working out, but I would not totally rely on that with being older. Mix things up so you are not doing the same thing everyday. Swimming is another all body workout if you do it right.

Something to think about is your joints (elbows and knees, not the rolled green stuff...lol). One idea is SLOWER reps, you can get the same burn with less weight. Say you can do 20lb bicep curls that take about 2 seconds per curl up and down, do them with 10lb and make it 6 seconds up and down per rep.

It is going to come down to how you like to ride. The ninja is a nice bike that handles decent, it does not feel as heavy in the corners as the Busa. But personally I liked the R1 better than both. But that was years ago, back when I rode I also had a Ninja, Harley, and a Dirt bike to choose from...lol

I guess it depends on how much you want from your dating. To me dating needs to be in person, so it is more just online flirting or something. But if just being online is enough for you then it could be all you need.

Yes, there are some trans on this site. Some of them list it on their profile but some like being more discreet, probably too much hate mail so they should tell you later.

I just started to watch "Tulsa King" and so far it is decent, better than all these crazy reality shows that are being pushed on us...lol

The only Forum rule I see about scammers is #20
"20) Please do not post scammer/spammer topics. If you suspect a scammer, please report them. You can report suspected scammers by clicking the 'report abuse' button on any email you have received from them, or by clicking 'report user' on the user's profile."

So a scammer topic is like the posts a scammer would make, "send me money and I will send you more back" type of topic. This can not be a rule against how to recognize a scammer, like telling people if they have a link in their profile to see their naked pictures then they are probably a scammer...
