    I've had several crushes on this board and through MFP... and several guys appear to have crushed on me til they got to know my personality... I’ve got a great boyfriend but there’s still a guy here whose argument and writing just makes me swoon.

    A couple things I experienced were that a) often times people here don't actually meet you in person. They carry one "MFP romances" that go nowhere, and once you make it possible for the romance to be “real” they poof… and b) people are rarely in person the same personality you fall in love with online (but some ARE as hot!!)

    Ive been romancing my MFP love story for almost 5 months... seen each other twice already and will be a 3rd time a Christmas, not bad for 2 people that live 10,000kms away from each other...

    Glad it's working for you... not sure why you felt the need to quote my post in order to tell us it's working for you. The fact that it's working for you does not negate the plethora of PMs I get from ladies (and two guys)who thought their MFP crush really liked her until she tried to meet him in person. I have way more MFP friends who leave and either never come back or create a whole new profile due to some MFP crush they thought really liked them but never had any intention of going the distance.

    Still, glad yours is working out and hope it continues to do so. The original moderators of Single Peeps are still going strong too, so there’s definitely precedent. ;-)

    Ugh. I have a major crush on someone IRL that I should have gotten over a year ago. He is such an unbelievably awesome man, but he has major insecurity issues, and unfortunately, so do I. I'm starting to think I'm going to be single forever :sad:

    You're a great catch and you just need to remind yourself of that! :flowerforyou:

    --P, I believe we would make great friends and enemies, lol.

    We wouldn't be enemies. I like to argue, but face to face, I'm surprisingly pleasant. ;-)

    --P

    As well as a couple IRL....but they cause me headaches....lol

    oh and I'm not ashamed to say Anna is my girl crush on here! She is one awesome lady!!

    I'm jealous, I never get PMed or anything! :angry:
    I feel like I'm missing out on so much of the action that is happening behind the scenes... :laugh:

    Strange... why would people do that? They could just ignore the other person... No?

    Also, it's a nice ego boost I guess to be "crushed on" but not everyone wants to "realise" (i.e. make real) those crushes all the time. Everyone wants to be loved :smile:
    Yep, loneliness and love definitely make people go mental and do crazy things...

    I do have an MFP crush on here, but I am too far away to do anything and I am very shy in starting a conversation. Do not mind the distance at all, since I had a LDR before.

    I don't have in RL crushes.

    Awww thanks, PJ!!!

    Btw, I'm starting to think that the fact that my literary crushes are Starbuck from Moby **** and Prince Andrei from War and Peace have a lot more to do with me being single than anything else :laugh:

    OMG -- edited to add that I think it's hilarious that mfp censored literature!!!!

    Me too! If you can make it over to the UK, I'm sure we could find you a Prince Andrei, though...I've got an invitation to a Cossack Ball lurking somewhere around!

    Hank Rearden from Atlas Shrugged (this is a big one)

    One of my favorite books

    :love:

    It's my #1, I aspire to be Dagny Taggart in spirit.

    Terrible prose and terrible philosophy. As my friend's mother told her when she started to quote Atlas Schrugged at 18, "Everyone goes through an Ayn Rand phase, but shouldn't you have grown out of it by now?" Eventually she did.

    Loved it that Ayn Rand needed social security and Mediare to survive, after slagging off on government programs (for "moochers"!) her entire life. Such a terrible hypocrite. Not surprising that this is the faux philosophy driving the extreme right in the US (old folks on Medicare love her, I suppose).

    Not going to get into her watered down Nietzschean philosophy, as that is also so terrible as to be laughable. Sorry, but "a little learning is a dangerous thing" comes to mind every time someone mentions Ayn Rand. And yes, I say that as someone who loved Atlas Shrugged when I was 25. Again, it's a phase, like wearing black, or a goatee.

    --P

    Wow. .I'm blown away by how obviously superior you are! Bravo!
