I usually just think he's sooo not my type or wow you're too far away. I really try not to judge them for their looks or age.. they are just looking.. not like they've emailed me or anything out of the sort.

HELL YEAHHHHHH!!!!!!

We might even make the news,,,lol,lol
Two drunken men were found bungee jumping this morning off the I95 bridge, both were yelling Mingle Mingle to passing motorists,,,,lol,lol

lol

Most of the "strangers" who view my profile are 48-year-old women with 4 kids.

If they write, it's to tell me that the best thing I could do would be to change my standards and start dating 48-year-old women with 4 kids because they could really make me glad I changed my mind. Then they say some nasty things about my profile and tell me I'm a POS because I don't date 48-year-old women with 4 kids.

I never get e-mail from the goth/emo girls with lots of eye makeup, though.

Conspiracy theories abound....

I figured we would end up throwing a party on the bridge blocking traffic and having them join in the fun.

"Local news tonight. It seems a couple guys from a internet dating site decided to meet and throw what seems to be the party of the year on the I95 bridge blocking traffic for miles. Consequently none of those stuck in traffic complained due to the good time had by all."

glad to hear about exams, and the job promotion! awesome!
things are good. i'm selling my house here, and i'll be a gypsy for awhile and travel, put everything in storage, and i met someone quite special here, so that is exciting as well, and other than that, life is good too!

I've never understood attacking someone based on their stated preferences. What purpose does it serve? It's not as if the recipient is going to smack his/her forehead and cry "By Jove (s)he's right! I've been a fool!" or some other nonsense.

If the profile states that the individual seeks a three headed alien with 9 tentacles, I'm going to accept that I am NOT said creature and click to the next profile. Perhaps that's just me.

I'll toast ta that!!!!!

Well, that's the thing I don't understand....

I have never e-mailed anyone to say "Your stated preferences are wrong and unfair, and you should stop being a shallow, narrow-minded idiot and give someone else a try."

OK, but WHY would you even BOTHER trying to "convert" me if I'm such a shallow, narrow-minded idiot in the first place?

I operate under the assumption that we all have a right to our own individual standards. That doesn't mean anyone else is ever required to UNDERSTAND them -- seriously, I probably don't get about 75% of the standards I read on people's profiles, but I don't really have to -- I'm not them, and they're not me, so let's figure out what matters to US, and let everyone else do the same.

hey terry!

Perhaps it's seen as a personal affront, and they're insulted that people don't wish to conform?

I don't have many physical preferences stated in my profile. I do say that I want someone my height or taller, as it is my preference that I not loom over my date. I get emails telling me that if I'm so shallow as to judge based on height, I'll be alone forever.

I've come to the conclusion that to the vast majority, failure to conform is a threat on a psychological level. I just haven't figured out what level that is, and am not sure I wish to know.

if they view my profile and dont e mail i just figer they didnt like what i had to say lol and let it go at that just my thinking

Usually, Wow...how Really really young!

Then..WOW how really really OLD!!!

If I even travel across the country, I'll have to look her up!

i don't think i have ever paid attention to that section.

i could care less who's viewed me.

I only think that if they view me multiple times, esp in a short time.

If they view me once, I dont think anything of it. Just curious. If they like, lemme know. If not, be well.

I think you're right, and I think "conform" is the key to the whole thing.

Anything other than a purely mainstream life is considered "wrong" or "dangerous" or "threatening" somehow.

I have had it up to here, ^^^^^^ , or possibly even higher, with the damned domestication attempts....



This is one reason I gave up on MySpace. That many cardboard cutouts in one place can only be a fire hazard.

C!!!

Have I boned her?....or is she ticked off that I nailed her sister/daughter/mom/grandma...?
