    @MuscleAndMascara come back. I changed my picture for you.

    After some observation in the forums and whatnot, I've come to this conclusion:
    I think people get the perception that it's a dating site, for this reason. From a guys perspective, follow my logic. Talks to a woman on here who maybe is trying to shed a few pounds. They probably feel vulnerable, insecure etc. and some creepy people see that and kinda use that as their "in"....it feels like match.com or AM...but with fitness and calorie counting.
    I never heard of Kik before joining MFP. Don't get me wrong, I have female friends on here, and they're just that. Friends...I'm not here to hook up....

    @jamespfinnen I agree. I only opened up one forum (not this chit chat one) and it only took me a second to see where it was going. That's why I posted in this one, and it seems most agree. You're absolutely right about women feeling vulnerable and using this to validate themselves. It's really sad.
    On the other hand, this could be a great place to meet someone if that's what you're looking for.
    I've never used Kik and hadn't heard of it until this thread. Still not even sure what it is but I think I get the jist just by the conversations.

    we can three way kik and make it kinky

    I'll pass. Not because I'm calling you ugly, I'm just not here looking for love but hey, looks like @synchkat is!

    Um....ok, I wasn't aware of that but thanks for letting me know

    Uh, and if you don't know, now you know, ni--a!, uh
    You know very well who you are
    Don't let em hold you down, reach for the stars
    You had a goal, but not that many
    'cause you're the only one I'll give you good and plenty

    Couldn't tell by all these "rate me" posts!
    Back to my cardio sesh lol

    So is a bar a place to drink and have fun, or a place to find dates?
    Is a church a place of worship and fellowship, or can you find someone to date there?
    What about a grocery store...a gym...school...etc?

    In most cases, everywhere is somewhere people try to meet like minded people.

    Shesh lol

    For someone to think those posts provides self esteem and validation is quite naive I would say. I thought thought this forum was all about fun, but I guess it's where some feel the need to pass judgement. My thoughts on a site like this is to build each other up and motivate the others to do better. I guess that means I'm trying to date EVERYONE that I will never meet! LMAO!! :expressionless:
