    Friend and i discussed this and although im not into money it may help weed out some weirdos...thoughts?

    Would you mind if he asked for yours? Along that same thought process, are you willing to sign a Pre-Nup?

    Yes while we dine at a 5* restaurant that I booked, sipping £1000 a bottle of champagne, listening to your favourite band that I booked for you. That's when I'll ask how is your credit? You able to split the bill with your below average score, if its perfect we can drive off into the sunset in my Porche, that I have on finance.....

    LIES. You clearly don't have a porsche since you missed the "s."

    looks like someone isn't going on a fantacy date

    Not one that includes a ride in a porsche anyways lol

    how about a motorcycle? You should see the way my big thumbs can grip the throttle

    Does it have a sidecar and do you have a pair of old-timey goggles I can wear? That's the dream.

    well for myself

    I'll let the dog sit on my lap. I LOVE dogs.

    Seriously - I'm much more concerned with whether my potential date is a dog person than what his credit score is.

    Dog haters need not apply.

    Absolutely! Must love dogs!

    Mmhmm but what happens when animal shelters start basing adoption eligibility on credit score?

    Not sure how accurate Credit Karma is, but I get emails from their customer service reps all the time wanting me to hit them up if I'm ever in the area.

    The topics about dating on this site are absolutely soul crushing.

    I have a terrific over 800 credit score...but Jesus Christ.

    I hope I never have to date again...

    :(

    Good luck to one and all.

    I find it hilarious that 90% of the responses have no clue that it's a comedy thread. Amazing. :laugh: Well done, OP. :cookie:

    If this is true OP deserves to be nominated for "best puppet master of the day", too funny!

    Well played and kinda hilarious...MFP does not disappoint

    Some positions of trust require a complete background checks. A sub-normal credit score brings some red flags. It is not a dis-qualifier, but it is an indicator.

    This topic reminds me of an old lendingtree.com commercial. (Sorry, I guess I can't just post a link to YouTube. Well, enjoy the video!)

    So, I'm so curious to know...was your thread question for real or are you just sitting back and laughing at all the responses?

    I don't even know at this point!

    It is fun tho, for sure!

    i wouldn't think so. i never wanted to know that kind of thing about strangers even when they were insisting on telling me, personally.
    Is there not some way women can weed out the men without being critized

    well, for a first date - not that i ever willingly went on one - you could try weeding them out by whether or not they seem like people you'd want to spend a few hours with.

    The guy who "took it out" on our first date was a successful business owner. lol I don't think knowing credit score is going to determine who the weirdos are.

    Someone asked why it's ok to ask for pictures. I think it's fine to ask for a full body shot (not noodz!) because we all know that a picture of a face tells you nothing. I don't care if people think it's shallow, I want to know if the guy I'm going to meet is fit and I see nothing wrong with them wanting to see that I am what I say I am. The only time I can see someone being offended by this is if you're trying to hide something.

    As for the types of personal questions it sounds like you're being asked, I'd shut that *kitten* down immediately unless all I was looking for was a hook up.

    You're a beautiful and smart girl. Be picky. If someone is trying to get all pervy in the first conversations don't even bother with them. Unless that's what you're looking for of course.

    I made sure my online profile had several pics, including at least one rather unflattering with bare arms and full body. BUT that picture also had me teaching a preschool class with a mouse puppet. (The kids could olny be seen from back of heads)I figured it was important to show that I was heavy, and not going to let that stop me from being me, and by the way, don't be surprised when I'm fat. Sure, I had fewer hits, but that was better for me anyhow. I certainly didn't want to deal with someone who cared what my "numbers" are. And I deleted anyone who started asking me innapropriate questions or making it clear that they wanted a cheap hookup. Also that one "businessman" with the wallet photo daughters who "traveled the world" and lived in London, but didn't have any real background on his kids, and wasn't sure what his "buisness" did. But gee, he thought I was amazing!I wanted a man who would appreciate that I was honest, caring, and fun to be with. I got a man who was amazing, funny, kind and my absolute best match!
