I prefer to call them Spirits...Ghost sounds a bit spooky. I have felt presences near to me often in my life since my husband died, generally when things are not going well, like when both of my parents were dying. I could explain in what form but it would take too long. I do believe they are around us. |

On a rainy night in early November of 1997 when I was 18, my friend and I were sitting in his basement finishing off one of the kegs he had gotten for his Halloween party a few nights before. As we sat in his basement, I brought up the topic of ghosts in his house because though I'd never personally experienced anything in his house, other of my friends had and so had he and his family. I started to ask him questions about it and he told me some stuff but other stuff he said I wouldnt believe him if he told me. Then, out of nowhere I felt a cold chill up the back of my neck. He must have felt it too because we both stopped talking and looked at each other and then at his dog that was sitting on the basement steps staring at something. Then all of a sudden his dog leapt off the stairs and started barking and attacking thin air! We headed for the stairs but the dog got there first, then my friend, then me. As I was running up the steps I could distinctly hear footsteps pounding on the steps behind me even after I was off the steps the footsteps continued. I walked out of his house that night into the pouring rain and have never been back since. I will also never doubt that ghosts exist again.lol!

I was watching this movie last night "Just Friends" and I was thinking about how I was interested in girls before and either they or I were seeing someone so I we became friends. In most cases the initial attraction was mutual but when we were both free to date each other even if we hooked up or did date it didn't last long. I usually got some variation of "This wouldn't work, we're good friends." So I was wondering if theoretically is it possible to escape from the "friend zone" and what does it take? ![]() This excuse is a crock of s***! It is moreso they are afraid of; a: Being hurt by someone close to them that knows quite a bit more than anyone else; or b: A copout when they are afraid of the possibility and outcome being better. It really comes down to the past relationships with boyfriends/fiancee's/parents/siblings/friends, drawn from that comes this psychosis of fear...ultimately of good, but the unknown is what scares people the most. ![]() |

ever did or have happen to you while on a date or trying to impress someone? One time when I was a senior in high school I was totally obsessed with this girl Lisa and I got her to come to a diner with me after school one day. I was trying to look cool and I spit in the ashtray (this was in 1996, when you were still allowed to smoke outside your own house). BIG MISTAKE. lol, the ashes shot up and got all in her face (eyes, mouth, etc!) and mine!!

I agree, I take awful pics, but would have to say im far from being a dog. Im very witty, smart, playful, and love to have a good time. Enjoy great company and feel that I am good company to be around. But unless I take the stellar photo, done up to a nine, no attention at all in the internet world. And it is frustrating because the guys that I message on here would definitely try to hit on my in public, but on here, they just pass me by. I feel your pain, LOL ![]() |

I guess this goes here? Anyway, I have a theory on cyber dating that unless you enjoy spending time and hanging out in the forums, only the best looking most photogenic individuals are successful. Here is why. First off, you can't see the persons body language, presence, personality, voice tonality, mannerisms,etc. All you see are pictures and I know for most of us-me included-I only view the profiles of the women that look good. I've also noticed that in the real world, I get hit on quite a bit and I've always dated attractive women. Here in cyber world, I definitely am NOT the man lol. I think it has a lot to do with the fact that I'm not very photogenic and I don't look good in photos; they don't do me any justice at all. Furthermore, I think some of the other aspects that I mentioned before can't be seen. Such as I'm solid and 6'4" so my presence is noticed when I walk into a room. Also, I have this smile that goes well with a sly-type, playful mannerism that I think is appealing to women. I think there are a lot of men and women who have the same issues and if you aren't the most gorgeous, most photogenic person on earth, online dating can be a real self-esteem buster. Not to mention frustrating! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

See this is my point exactly. I'm not AT ALL "geeky". The furthest thing from it. As for the other stuff, like I said I'm not trying to impress anyone. I meet enough girls out in the world :) Then why are you on a dating site? |

Well truthfully, if I read your profile I'd run... and not just run, but run fast. Any woman in their right mind can see that your profile sounds bitter (of course some people say that of mine, but I'm not posting threads about how I can't get a date online, either). Your headline reads "whatever"... your profile text basically says that you don't care to impress or even put forth a good effort to attract someone... so why would anyone bother? Yes, your pictures partly suck. I think most of it is bad lighting and bad angles. You look, to me, a little on the geeky side, which is OKAY really, because a lot of women like that... but geeky guys need to be sweet... not bitter and *****y. I hope I haven't totally offended you... just trying to help you out with some real advice on the subject. Good luck and don't let them beat you down. ![]() |

If my profile comes across as blah, that is because thats how I feel right now. I'm sick of writing to women I'm attracted to and getting no response. I wish I was gay sometimes, I really do. I'm just so sick of attractive women. Unattractive women are great except I'm not attracted to them...it's a catch 22 Everyone on your friends list is quite attractive so what are u complaining about. |
