to a friend... even if just for the forums ... I did ... lets see if they joined ... said they would know me picture or not ... just from the way I write and think ...

Hmmm..not a friend, wouldn't want them up my biznatch
for the times when one really lets their hair down
on the forums.

But sure, I would recommend the forums
to any acquaintance.

Maybe its a guy thing.. I don't know. But me and my guy friends never really talk about dating sites and stuff like that.

Or maybe its just a me and my friends thing

well she needs to laugh a little more and cheer up ...and who knows she might find someone ->very cute ... I talk to her weekly ... don't really keep things from her ... if she gets on my nerves ...I will block her lmao

To a GF...no. I wouldn't be here in that case.
To a male friend who is lookimg for a gf, no. Why give myself competition?

I would Recommend it to anyone that needs something else to do than watch TV.. are just needs to feel connected..to others..

But I would not recommend it ..to friends or girlfriends.. or boyfriends....nooooo..
Why?... because boyfriends or girlfriends will just assume you're on here..looking. for ther replacement..lol.. and friends can be somewhat judgmental.. when they see a side of you they've never seen before...ie..wow.. you gave that person on the forums some really good advice.. how come you never give me advice like that???..
Lol..

Would you recommend this site ...

Yes I would, but, only if they promes to troll!!!!, here in the forums,

Yeah yeah... I think it's more to do with them finding out how much Kleenex you go through a year?

I must admit it can be a major bummer that all posting are still to be found on M2, if one knows how to look for them...

Recommend... I'm Dutch. I don't think this site would be of much use to Dutch ppl to find dates/partner.

The forums, possibly, but doubt there are many Dutch ppl who are comfy and fluent enough in English to understand and/or enjoy it.

And also, I wouldn't want ppl I know on here, reading everything I post.
Like Soufie said, don't want them up my biznatch. (Yes, I had to look that one up, lol)

I'm not sure Crystal, you (as Dutch do) have a such a command on language. I so enjoy your perspective. ...and what little is lost in translation,I enjoy working out.

..yes..just.. Google search your profile name..you might be surprised..lol..any one can do it..wink

RUN!!!

RUN!!!

Yup... something I'm not all that happy with...
Many dating sites protect the content or at least photos. I like that a whole lot better. I don't really see why everything should be out there in the open to be honest...

Yeah, but I've been an English teach and have been in a relationship with an English bloke for 10-11 yrs so I've been speaking the lingo daily for over a decade. Spent time in Oz when younger etc. etc.
But even I had a bit of a problem on here at first. I'd never really been exposed to AmE. Well, tv of course, but not conversation, slang etc like you find on here. BrE, yes, familiar with that, AmE not so much. In the beginning I needed Google dictionary function quite often, lol.
I write in English (the books I'm working on), talk to my cats in English -I'm a nutter, I know!-, I can do a serious domestic in English (had lots of training with my ex, haha), and until recently sex was in English. My part of it anyways even when the other was Dutch.
And when I get emotional and we need to talk, I still switch to English. Somehow works better for me. Easier to express my feelings in English than in Dutch for some peculiar reason.
So funny, my first date after breaking up didn't understand English at all. He was into French and France. Obviously that didn't work out for me cos I use a lot of English in day-to-day speech and he didn't get me, nor my play on words. Needless to say I never dated him again Just doesn't work. (serious deal breaker, not kidding)
The guy I'm seeing now is an English teach, so not a problem with him. He's now doing sex in English as well, haha, I think I'm contagious?
So I'm not your average Cloggie when it comes to English. I guess I'm a bit of a fruitcake -grin.
A nice tasting one though

No, I wouldn't recommend.

I'd only recommend it to my ugly friends.

After all, if loads of handsome guys join, it just means I've got no chance, sod that

Well I guess it depends on the person. personally Its not all that great I came to to see that people arent at all as down to earth as they used to be scared to hear a diferent opinion,not very honest and just way too cautious.

Yes, I would recommend it. The price is right

i don't know anyone else...
