No it's not, it's called a nick name, like cue ball or Big mama. I'm pretty sure they place Big mama and Cue Ball on their tax returns omg lmfao

I think the problem was waiting six months before you two met .... Personally, I think it is always best to meet a potential mate within just a few weeks... to see if there is any potential for a real relationship to develop. I agree with this. I wouldn't wait six months either. I wouldn't want to get to know someone over a period of months only to meet him and find out that we’re not compatible. My preference is always to meet within a couple of weeks then get to know him over a series of dates etc. I would only "wait" if I was involved in an overseas relationship.

Why is that many of our men and women in an online dating site are not truthful,sincere and openminded.why? Basically that's life.. Online and off, there will always be people who are not truthful, whether its because they are insecure about themselves or just plain dishonest. But there are also a heaps of honest people here as well.

I'm pretty sure they place Big mama and Cue Ball on their tax returns If they did in place of their given name then that would be a lie, as it gives straight instructions as to the name you must place in those fields. the tax forms simply ask for your name ...so why can't Big Mama or Cue Ball or an Internet User I.D. be place in the Name box ..if nicknames are not lies

using a User I.D.as your name offline would constitute as lying ....but yet for some odd reason using a user I.D. as your name online is not lying Do you believe using a nickname of any form is lying? for everyone except Batman

Distance makes meeting immediately quite hard. Even if it's not overseas. If I were to meet someone across the country, I definitely wouldn't do it within two weeks. However, if they were local, then yes, meeting in less than two weeks would happen.

I wouldn't want to spend months getting to know someone only to never to see them again after that first date.

I don't think there's one clear answer to why.

good, better, best are we speaking an ABSOLUTE or a GENERAL people can be the best, (absolute, compared to others) and still have room to improve people can be THEIR personal best (general), and that doesnt leave room to improve

Well, often times truth hurts. Often times hiding behind a lie feels safe. Not that it is the right thing to do. Some times telling the truth drives folks away. I've seen this happen with families and with friends. c Not only there but in life in general. People ask for an opinion or get huffy winen you offer one even if it is not intended to pe a personal attack/ It comes down to how "brutal" the honesty is. And to me how thin skinned some people are. I really don't like to feel like I have to tip toe around some crybaby type that is going to get their feelings hurt over little or nothing; especially when my intent is to give them what they ask for.
