This is not asking "how do I..." But you, yourself, what do you say to get a conversation to started?

I hear a lot of people use the same pickup lines, maybe you guys use something different or change it up?


I find something to compliment them on or question them about.

So what is the sweetest thing a guy/girl ever did for you that made your heart melt?


Well, spill the beanssmitten love :heart:


An ex once cleaned my house while I was at work and had dinner ready when I came home. Afterwards, he sat beside me while watching “Bridgette Jones’s Diary” without trying to interrupt the movie to “get frisky”… not easy for a man to sit through any movie without doing that, especially a chick flick. :thumbsup:

...that most girls want guys who treat them like complete crap. It is sickening how many couples I see fight almost on a daily basis. Then when they do break up, they usually get back with the same jerk. I could never give someone that many chances. You can only burn so many bridges before it is too late to go back with them. Who the hell would want confrontation in their life anyway? I do not.

I never got the logic behind it. If someone does, please, do tell...


I know some women like that. They are attention hounds. They crave attention and will seek out anything to bring drama into their lives so that they have something to talk (whine & bi*ch) about to others and have more attention and sympathy. They thrive on hearing that they’re a nice person who puts up with someone else’s crap and all the attention and advice they get from others.

Attention hounds! ill

It depends on whether or not they try to use that intellect to make others (including me) feel stupid. Brains are sexy. Mean spirits are not.

If you were offered the freedom to stay in your home for one year with no responsibilities...what is the one thing you would need that you do not have?

only one thing


Books that I haven't read yet.

Make that books that I haven't read yet that I ENJOY reading... sci-fi, mystery, etc, not that romance or girly stuff.

I just joined this site last night. I was just searching for people around my area when to my surprise I find my best friends husband! She is currently almost 6 months pregnant and it says he hasnt been on for a month. Do I tell her?!?! We are basically sisters....we have known each other since we were 4. And we both know he has cheated in the past. Do I try and let it go? And let them maybe be happy again. It says hes unhappily married and looking for intimate relationships. I dont want to hurt her and stress her being this pregnant but Ive never trusted him and honestly I dont think she ever has either. And if he ever logs back in hes gonna see that I looked at his profile. Think maybe that will be enough for him to stop???? More then likely not. I just do not want to hurt her. She has two other kids as well that call him dad and hes basically the only dad they have ever known. Ive never been in this situation and I just think either decision is going to hurt her, whether I tell her or not. And honestly guys this is why some girls have a problem with trust. I seen this happen a couple of times to different friends of mine and it makes me nervous to find someone who truely wants me and only me. Any suggestions are welcome.


If it was me, I would want to know and my friends know me well enough to know this. I’d not trust the man after the first time. I’d have problems trusting a friend who knew and kept his secret instead of telling me.

You know your friend better than we do. Some people wouldn’t want to know and will deny it’s true and end a friendship if told. Some would want to know and toss the jerk before he brought home a gift that kept on giving. You’ve known your friend long enough to know which she would prefer and what she’s capable of handling. Just remember that she’s going to need her friends more than ever, pregnancy or not.

- Fix my van
- Travel
- Go back to school
- College for kids
- Whatever is left - donations to Big Brothers/Big Sisters & Hope House (local shelter for abused women & children) since there's not a lot I want and after going back to school I could afford the small things I want after earning them.

I know where you're coming from... I do hope you were able to find a 2nd best...


Thank you. There have only been two things so far that have been able to enthrall me so completely that the world disappears and I lose track of time and everything around me. Unfortunately, even if something can overtake you so completely it doesn't mean it's what you are meant to do or that you will be given the talent to take it past yourself.

I have faith that if I keep trying different things, there will be a fit at some point... something that moves me as well as being worthy of sharing with others. I haven't given up yet. :thumbsup:

having fun or achieving your dream? and you can't say both?


Too many things have made my dream impossible. Now I just try to enjoy the ride and see where I end up.



Get the movie The Secret. There is absolutely nothing in this world that is impossible. I thought it was impossible to get a divorce; it is coming, thought it impossible to go back to school at my age. Check. Thought it would be impossible to live on my own and not starve, doing it and eating well all on $8.00/hr. I used to say that all the time but no matter how much it looks like there is no answer; it is always right in front of you. Go for it Alt.


Thanks, but my dream requires talent along with will. Talent either is or isn't.

...That is completely sick of people their own age? I can't date anyone younger than me anymore it's just.. stupid.


Sick of people my own age? Yes and no. Yes, for the ones trying to dress and talk like the younger crowd make my stomach roll.

It seems the men around my age are looking for much younger women. Even if they don’t say it outright, they’ll put things like “… but look much younger” or “… but relate better to younger” in their profile. Of course, this translates as “I’m in my 40’s, but thinking I can get a 20-something if I dress and talk using slang for that age group. Thanks for the warning… next.

As for the ones younger, it seems a lot of them are looking for older women. I’ve tried dating younger men, but it always fails for the same reason each time. They’re younger and have fewer responsibilities and live their life accordingly. I’m older and have responsibilities and live my life mostly accordingly. It’s always great in the beginning, but eventually boils down to them always being too carefree and my having obligations that require my not being able to be as carefree.

The last group… the older men… has varied between being like the men around my own age (looking for 20-somethings so they can feel “male macho prowess”) or being too settled in their own ways of doing things and being single and seem to take on more of a stern fatherly role.

Wow… I’ve rambled a bit. Sorry about that. In a nutshell, there are general things that are common among each of the groups, but every so often I do come across a few who don’t fall into those categories.

bigsmile I can't remember how I thought of it ,but I use it on every site that I candrinker


A mirror reflects what others present…
A mirror facing a mirror would reflect itself…

Makes sense to me… it’s a reflection of yourself. :thumbsup:
