    Pretty hot topic...

    ...isn't a Christian
    ...isn't considerate
    ...cheats/lies
    ...doesn't want children or says they want children and you witness them around children, realize they aren't father material.
    ...doesn't have college degree
    ...is emotionally unavailable, closed-off
    ...doesn't communicate
    ...smokes
    ...drinks too much, and doesn't realize they drink too much
    ...can't hold an intelligent conversation

    wait this is about dating not marriage...kind of the same end goal I guess

    Doesn't drink.

    Sadly I agree with you! I'm on a dating website and if they say "never" under drinking I won't respond or email them. I'm not an alcoholic and I don't drink that much, but I feel like the guy would be all judgy if I wanted to drink and he never did. "See, this is why you shouldn't drink"
    I'd fear that's what I'd hear if I drink a little too much once and have a hangover!

    I agree!

    Hasn't heard of the 1 ring to rule them all.

    I'm officially interested....:laugh: :wink: :love: :smooched: :drinker::smooched:

    I'm an interesting enigma!

    Elf of course, height advantage. But don't quote me, I'll get back to you on that!

    I feel a presence, something I haven't felt in . . .

    This was too cute!

    Maybe we are going to lose 2 members soon?

    That'd be great! :):heart:

    Sadly, she's on the other side of the world,lol

    Pfft, that's what text, email, cellphones, and cams are for!

    @ Gary - You're on the same continent. I would hardly call that the other side of the world.

    @ Windy - Look at you playing matchmaker... you're supposed to matching me up with a guy like PBJunky and/or msf74!! :laugh:
    [/quote]

    I have an extremely successful rate as a matchmaker, I am 1 for 1! They've been married about 16 years or so.

    I think the key to being a good matchmaker is being in a relationship, otherwise I'll want to keep all the good ones like msf for myself!

    Oh this is too cool. Can't let ya down.
    Ok, I'll start saving!

    - smokes
    - thinks physical abuse is ok (and that goes for every other form of abuse while I'm at it)
    - respects my role as a single mom and student
    - doesn't ask to meet my kids on the first date (skeeves me out)
    - doesn't have a job, their own vehicle, and their own place. Not trying to be snobby, but I've been there done that and I'm not playing mommy to anyone else but my kids.
    - curses a lot. I'm also a Christian lady and that is NOT acceptable.
    - doesn't have an education beyond high school. again, nothing personal or anything, I just identify better with others who are also pursuing an education

    I would say I could never date someone who lies or cheats, but you know, those guys never seem to wear a t-shirt saying so for easy identification. Go figure. I of course won't knowingly date someone who lies or cheats, but who would?
