So people CAN really find someone to date and find love on this site... I posted a couple weeks ago a topic asking how many people are finding dates here... mostly people said not really...

Well, let it be known that I did finally find a super cool, wonderful, funny, witty, generous man to fall in love with here on this site..... Been talking for over a month and meeting for the first time this weekend...

Tigardman + Mountainwatergirl! NICE!!

Keep trying peoples...

Good luck to you, from one that it has worked for!!

Good deal. Best of luck to you.

Me..the odds look longer and longer all the time...lol

Hey thx alot! I;m super smitten for now.. we'll see how it goes... good luck to you all!

Don't give up,,, this is what my new beau did... he kept at it and swept me off my feet with... WORDS... weird... remember to put yourself out there. Send those emails and don't give up is the key. Your personality will shine through eventually. Trust me.

congrats, good luck to both of you...

Well..so far...I have put myself " out here " 10,399 times.

Hasn't done me any good so far.....lmao

maybe try some different tactics, words or approach than you have. This guy I just got with??? tried EVERYTHING..... and I wasn't havin' it! Most guys that tried to talk to me, or rather, thought they were talking to me... were not what it was going to take. Just a thought. So don't laugh,,, trying to help ya here... lol

Heh. At that point, I accept the rejection ( pretty much used to it ) and just call it a day...

I appreciate the fact that you found someone and are really happy. That's awesome. I wouldn't try to burst your bubble or anything like that.

Just being my normal, obstinate self.....lol

Ya know....I just don't see it that way. I am not saying that I shouldn't have to try. But I truly shouldn't have to get rejected and then try to guess whether or not she's just trying to see how much effort I'll put into it.

That's just a bad game for someone to be playing.

besides...if the dude guesses wrong, then he gets branded as a stalker.

Bad news all the way around.

But hey. If it worked for you and him, then whatever floats your boat.

Let us know how it turns out

We will Mirror, Thanks to everyone that has responded to Mountains topic. I have truly met the woman of my dreams on this site, It does happen.

TM

Congrats! That's awesome! Make sure he treats you right!

Congrats to you both

I thought cats weren't fond of water... glad to see that love transcends not only internet cynicism but instinctual animal behavior. In all seriousness, congratulations you two!

i wonder if it would have worked out if she'd chosen a different name. for instance, "mountaingoatgirl" or "sewerwatergirl". my guess is no. "mountainwaterballoon" probably would have been ok, just confusing.

That's very funny there, half naked, hairy man. LOL
maybe that should've been your name here, let's try it shall we?

halfnakedhairyman.... hummmm, I think it fit's

Update 7/19

Just spent the last 5 days together with Mountainwatergirl and it was just like 2 old friends reuniting. I dont think we could have even fathomed the kind of chemistry that went on during that time. I feel like Ive been lost all these years and finally found that person that makes me feel whole again. From the trip to Crater Lake (great views and great company) to the Old town trip to Jacksonville to visit some of the oldest buildings in Oregon. All culminating with the fabulous Greek dinner that she and her friend cooked for us. Truly the best time Ive had in decades.

Mingle2 has made this possible. This site is a lighthouse in a storm.

Candace, You are my lost love. I feel like we have known each other our entire lives. Thanks to you, I feel truly alive.

....words.... don't have any...can't describe
wait.... how about.... WOW!

So in love with TM, good luck to everyone.
