Most single people don't want to talk to married people... I guess it's envy?


No not envy, but I don't come here to chat with married people... I come here trying to meet someone...Married people who hang out on a dating site tells me a lot about their marriage...If I was married I would be cool with my wife coming to a site like this at all... Thats just me, to each their own though..indifferent
I'm with you, that's what myspace is for smokin
myspace is crappy and filled with stupid kids. If someone enjoys the forums here better, who does it hurt? A forum is a forum, whether it's on a dating site or a social networking site. And by the way - do you think people never get dates from Myspace?

I am single but I am not looking for dates. I am just here for the forums. A married person could be doing the same thing, just as Becca is.

Don't you have any married friends? What is so wrong with talking to married people? I don't care if my friends are single, married, engaged, whatever. What difference does it make?

I sure hope there aren't many people on here that won't befriend a married person. I came here because of a reason/or reasons and most or ALL of you have been there before. I just thought it might be nice to have some one or everyone to talk to about things from time to time....maybe there IS someone out there who will understand that......
I do! I do!

This is the bottom line, and we will not take no for an answer. Our members on this site will be respected, regardless of marital status.

Moreover, the argument of "i came here to date" would suggest, at least normally, that reading the persons profile would be a significant portion of that search criteria. Given those guidelines, i cannot see a viable argument as to the marital status of "any" of our members hampering anyones dating experience.

I will address the following with the individual people as to not disrupt the thread......But man oh man are you so wrong......both of you.


Why am I wrong?? Please enlighten me..Is it or is not a dating site?? So what bussiness do married people have on a dating site other then creeping behind their spouses back..




Get a clue...and pull your head out of the sand. You don't know me or the lady that started this thread.........


Someones awful defensive, never a good sign.. And I never judged you or her, I only gave my opinion on the matter, which she brought up.. Don't like it tough, thats life live with it.. You and her are the ones getting mad because someone doesn't want to chat "privately" because you guys are married.. Yet I need to get a clue riiiight!!laugh You have a nice day now..



You want to know why defensive.....for the same reason I started the match thread......People should get to know all people....but they don't fit in the "mold" so you don't give them the time of day. Do you even phanthom how lame that is..I am married not dead. I have a ministry here and friends that came from another and forums...I am not here because my husband and I don't love each other or have awesome sex......be real and get your mind out of the gutter. You can't have intellecual or nice conversation.....with just another fellow human being.....then your pathetic. And that is my opinion.

I love you to Lee

that stupid mail restriction thing....
grumble
There are people who do not want to get mail from married people who are looking for dating. There is no setting that separates married people looking for friends.

That being said, there are some who will reject your friendship offers through friends request even, because they are not interested in chatting with friends, but only want to talk to interests. Don't take it personally if you get those, we are all here for different reasons and should all respect each others methods of time usage here. flowerforyou

oh i'm not offended in the least
i understand.
and i don't send friends requests to just anyone.
but when i just want to make a comment to them about something in the forums or personally to them and my email is rejected...it's just a bit irritating. i know i'm on a site that is directed more towards dating but i am a forum fanatic. and i like to interact that way.

I agree.....and also for me in many cases they have gotten to know me through forums or other means...and taken off their criteria so that we can chat......I think honestly it just limits the possibilities of who you could meet and just be good friends with......

think about it.
is everyone that came on this site to look for a 'date' ONLY here for that sole purpose? don't you have friends on your list that you chat with often? don't you have people that you know from here for other reasons rather than just dating them?

i think everyone should remember the bra burning of the 70s and drop the restrictions! WOO HOO

I totally agree....they can't play match game unless criteria is off.....and if your ever saw the I need you thread....the list is huge......so people do get it. And not only that but especially with the young guys who would never of given me the time of day because I am married and now I am their bff and mentor and help them deal with relationship stuff.

ok becca how right is this to be able to do again....I am soooooo glad you came chica.

Yea when i originally setup the account I guess I didnt really pay close attention to the criteria . . . many other sites there is a similar feature but not to block emails, to match you to what you would prefer. . . I guess that is what I thought it was, on these forums I found other members mentioning this issue.

So I removed most of my criteria . . . all you have to be is an adult, and not yet 1K years old lol.

As a general rule I have not emailed married men...but I had a bad experience with not one...but two married men who not only hit on me constantly, but argued the point with me about why I don't date married men. One said he was filing for separation soon and the other just liked to play around on his wife.

Why should I have to defend my morals to people who have none in my opinion. Note...I said, in my opinion!

It was very uncomfortable and I did not want to risk having those conversations again. So, I don't talk in email to married men anymore, even if it seems they are only about forum topics...that's how the first two started out. frown

So, it's people like these that make it hard for married people to gain friendships here...that's my guess anyway.
