i had a guy ask for my postal code - so he could book a hotel nearby as it was a pretty long drive.

haha, in canada a postal code is the street on which you live! he tried to sound innocent but it was plain as day to me.

i wouldn't answer someone i was talking with online as to whether i had a roomate or not. in an early email, it most likely isn't their business nor do i see why it would even come up in the first few conversations.

I have blocked people for the same thing.. it just ruins it.. wierdos.

I think it is a script from the one act play entitled "Smarm and BS"


Line 1 - Hi

(a little small talk optional)

Line 2 - Do you live alone?

If yes go to line 3
If no, hang up - intruders will screw things up

Line 3 - What are you wearing?

whatever she says assume it is lingerie with crotchless panties

Line 4 - Have you been naughty?

They all have been - don't take no for an anser

Line 5 - What positions do you like?

Don't be fooled, she likes the ones you like

Line 6 - Do you like anal?

It is the main thing in America

Line 7 - You've been promised to me by God

useful moreso in the bible belt

Line 8 - I'm just in Nigeria working on a bridge

They are suckers for engineers - they make a lot of money

Line 9 - Please send money

options here are vast: sick parents, lost credit cards, need airline tickets or hotel bills paid ... be creative. It almost doesn't matter what you say, they are stupid and will not check ...


If they refuse to send money or threaten to end the call at any time ...

Line 10 - I kill you!




...or something like that ...



or maybe he is just an innocent perv

Yikes...that is a bit scary!
Of course if you like you can always tell them I'm your Brother!
hahaha : )

or perhaps that my family are all into wrestling

WOW quite a list. It never ceases to amaze me what some people will say/ask. The whole cyber sex stuff seems so gross. Somebody must talk to them like that somewhere along the line or they wouldn't try it but I just wonder how they can read a profile and think that will get past most people on Mingle. Maybe more "Bots" out there than I realize.

The ones that come across really angry are the ones that scare the heck out of me. Seems every person who can't win and arguement with the Ex trys to take it out on line. Thank God for the delete button. I just have visions of them splattering their brains all over the ceiling when they explode from being cut off.

G'morn.Sandy;)Your welcome & that's O.K. I completely understand for we all have been there at 1 point in time.Of course every site has there weirdo's,perv.'scammers,spammers,etc.such as in IRL however the good far outweigh the bad ppl. at this site.T/G whew!lol.;)U have reached a very special site that is more a deep rooted social site then the other though there are success stories to be told.Relationships start w/ friendship anyhow.1)Adjust your settings accordingly.2)Thicken your skin a bit if needed.3)Guard your heart.4)Look for red flags(be cautious)5)Choose your friends wisely.6)Have fun w/ the mingle family.Godspeed!Cy

Very nice post CyPoet

I here ya..I havegotten a few emails.. not here thank goodness.but on another site.just wanting to "HOOK-UP"..WTF!! Not even a Hi or how are.nothing..i'm not like that at all never have been or will be..and let them know straight away.Just Aw Sickening to me..that a man would go there thinking that I would say SURE WHY NOT!!! ..Yeah..that will never happen..

1 : He is a man .
2 : You are a woman .
3 : he is interested in a woman who lives alone .
So he is right and you are wrong in my opinion .
.

He could have asked about the existence of a motorized intimate companion
that would have been worse

What is the fuss about ?.
When a man is horny a man is horny.
.
This is a dating site and not a place of worship.

Wow toyhup
That was certainly a perspective put forth rather succinctly. It is nonethe less very well considered from a man's viewpoint and fairly obviously Sandy has a female bias with some romantic considerations because she wants her dream and perhaps here she will find it.As will you, with a little luck and an honest conversation. Personally I believe that you are both correct and reasonable which I find quite puzzling because they are so seemingly different. How would either of you reconcile with the others' different ideas?.

..so that's how it starts out..someone writes and says hi...then what..conversation..i'm sweating just thinking about it...

Yeah I was quite peevish that day to start with and I just thought that was such a strange question to ask. I see tohyup's point of view, (and a few others) that I shouldn't take it so seriously but at the same time I am looking for a hell of a lot more conversation before I start telling anyone my living situation or anything else that I consider personal.
Guess it's just a matter of what your looking for in the first place<shrug>.

thanks cypoet

A man can still show respect. Showing respect separates the boys from the men.

It really separates those on Viagra and those who do not need it....

double post

Uh...so what's your point? All of us...male & female, get weird emails... Does this mean that every time I get a note from a transgender, epileptic, midget with self-esteem issues...I must make a huge deal out of it? Pfffffft! I just sell freakin' tickets...

You don't want me to email you anymore?
