i have met a few:
vivian2981 what you see is what you get. look up lady in the dictionary and her picture is there. polite, hospitable, honest, good ol' country bumpkin and sexy as hot lips houlihan from m.a.s.h.

carold is a quiet funny lady who can warm the heart of a frozen fish. she is one of those people who calls 'em like she sees 'em. she tends to vocalize her thoughts, and will make you laugh if you are close enough to hear

roadlesstrvld comes off as a shy girl, but once she gets comfortable she is a good conversationalist. i call her jgirl (jersey girl) but she is making a fine texas woman

manOffewwords is a gentlemen. if he has something to say, you better lean in close and listen. he won't draw attention to himself, but if you get a chance to put him in the spotlight you will be entertained

krupa is the life of the party, even in his sleep. when you are around him if you blink you will miss several things. on top of that, he has no limit to how far he will go to help

suzanne20 is a shy quiet girl. once she warms up she will show you that life's ups and downs can be handled with a smile and a positive attitude

fireflysgirl is cute as a button. friendly and did i mention cute. she dances to the beat of her own drum and the music she makes could make a grinch smile

txsgal is one special lady. she's not shy so if you have something to tell her, make sure you talk before she gets started. she's smart, caring, and an awesome friend to have

texas is one big friendly state, don't mess with texas

I guess I have been lucky to have met people who looked like their photos for the most part? I've used another site for actual dating and even they all looked like their pictures. One guy lied about his height, which was silly, but that was about it.


height, I hear, is the number one lying point for gents.


I'm not a tall person, so height doesn't really matter for me. But, he was a little shorter than me, yet lied and said he was taller. How silly is that?


I know. I guess its self esteem? Im sure there are women who reject men for height. But if your chatting with someone and dont have a height preference, why not tell them the truth before meeting? I was about to meet some guy who lied about his age. I put together the puzzle pieces myself and confronted him on it. He kept defending his choice to lie. "Most women...blah blah blah..." Ya, I cancelled the meeting.


I am not even sure my age is right on my driver's license....

I have had that happen, and we met for pizza so fortunately I was not in heels....silly thing is, he was about 5-6 or 5-7, I am only 5-5, and just under that really - more like 5-4 & 3/4. So I am not tiny but I am at a height where most guys won't have to worry about it

kinda ironic - he was such a nice person tho that I let it slide as an insecurity (his) but I am glad I was in flats - we had a nice time - went for a walk, had pizza & watched a movie


I am 5'4. the guy who lied about his height said he was 5'7, I believe, but was more like 5'3. I may have let it go by, had he been more interesting. But, he talked about himself and his job for 2 hours.

Speaking of age... a guy wrote me an email once and said he was 35+. I had to ask him about that more than once, because he didn't want to talk about it at first. But he thought it sounded better than saying he was 39. laugh

Yes, I think lies like that and height are about insecurity issues.

Most are the same. One was the same in personality but used a picture that he didnt look like anymore, still, not a problem there. I appreciated his honesty outside the old photo.

One was pure lies. old photo, old lies. lies lies lies, like he was addicted to lies. When I started discovering the lies he started calling me a biotch. And that was the end haha. He would have continued seeing me forever, as long as I let him lie. I runed it.


I had an ex like that once too - I'd prolly still be seeing if I continued to let him get away with lieing and playing games, but ya, no thanks & he is not anyone from mingle BTW

tried to resolve those issues a few times but ya, he'd get hostile if I confronted him so it sounds to me more like you didn't ruin anything, you got out from under


Its surprising to me about the comfort people have with dishonesty. As firm as I am about being honest, there are those who are equally firm about being dishonest. Its just another 'preference'. They dont get me, and I dont get them. Not a match is all.


well I do not like a lot of pushy questions so sometimes just as a "reaction" I will refuse to answer them, and a man like that (I have met 1 or 2) would not be attractive to me - not a match - I don;t lie but I also do not feel that complete strangers from a dating site are entitled to any personal info that I do not wish to give - for whatever reason

once I get to know someone and that person obviously will be part of my life - that is different

but I also require honesty and I don;t feel it's been a problem for the most part with recent contacts

Since Ese named everyone, I'll go ahead and do the same. :smile:

Everyone I've met I knew through the forums.

The first one I met was warmachine. He was just like I pictured and loved to discuss politics as much as he did here. He was also the person I've spent the most time with and it was a blast.

When I went on vacation to California, I was able to meet up with Moofooga. Again, just as I pictured. He was as silly and funny in person as he was in the forums.

Then I met Tootsweet, mechrissy and fetts for lunch one day. They were great company and full of good conversation. Just as they have been here!

The last person I met was Mayhem_J. He's as goofy as he was in the forums and makes me laugh a lot. A ton of fun to hang out with. I've had the chance to meet up with him a couple times.

None of these people are shy and they're all incredibly easy to talk to and get along with.

I still haven't met anyone from here and I doubt I ever will

Mayhem is the only person who I have even broached the subject with - but it would have required some pretty long distance traveling

and we are not on good terms at this point anyway, unfortunately and from what u are saying - I am so shy that I am not sure I'd be comfortable with him - especially after his treatment of me

I am glad to hear is nice. I cannot agree from my standpoint, anyway. He was not very nice to me. I really thought for awhile he was not real. So I guess it's more accurate to say that I am glad to find out that I was talking with someone who is realflowerforyou

I have met 7 people from here in person.

6 people were as kewl as they represent themselves on here.

1 was a total using loser. (We won`t go there).

So 6 people out of 7 people aren`t bad odds.

No. I didn`t have a clue. But when the "Red Flags" started it was time to move on.

I don`t usually have something bad to say about anyone, but then again there are exceptions.

I always try to find the good in people.

Sorry to hear you two aren't getting along well. He's definitely real, though and one of my favorite people here.
