When it comes to the question of sanity, I must be a nut magnet, because my latest ex (not met online) was definitely not playing with a full deck. I have met quite a few nuts online now in the last few months and I fear that they must gravitate to me for some reason. I wish there was some way I could tell who the nuts are before I get involved with them. I guess even a nut can be manipulative enough to fool someone into thinking she is sane.laugh


Get a list of questions to ask that all start with,
"Are you now or have you ever been..."

And seriously, everyone is crazy to one degree or another. The trick is finding someone whose crazy you find charming.


I'd like to try that. So far, the only crazy I've run into is "overbearing" and "manipulative."


I hear that, so to speak. All I can say is keep trying. There are still a few good people left in the world. They are few and far between, to be sure, but they are out there. If things like this website doesn't work for you, try joining a club of something you have an interest in. Anyone you meet there will at least have that in common with you.


Unfortunately, I'm in a position where on line is the only option I have for meeting people....which creates a whole plethora of problems in and of itself.



Sorry to read that. Surely you have some time off.

Since I posted this thread, I have heard the good, the bad, and the ugly. I'm glad things worked out, buttons. As I said before, the road to a good match is paved with unsavory individuals and unpleasant experiences. I guess the miscreant I almost connected with will make me appreciate the good one I hope to meet somewhere down the road.


There's a good country song that expresses that sentiment.
I think it's called "The Broken Road".

No, there's nothing to have time off from!
