I am meeting someone for the first time next Friday in Florida. I am super excited. I know her and I will have a blast. If you did, how did it go?

    Nah, it would just be weird. Only reason I'd meet someone is if I thought they were hot, and we were hooking up. And nobody is ever as hot as their picture.

    No, but I did meet up with a work friend eventually. I work in the UK office and he works in the German office. We got to know each other because of work and just got on. When we eventually met up after working together for nearly 8 years we had a great time. Now whenever I go to Belgium for international aikido courses I make a point of coming back via Germany and he occasionally comes to the UK.

    Enjoy meting your friend - it sounds like you will have a blast!!

    Yepp, just last week! We went to the mall and walked...I felt like a total dunce because she's at her goal weight and looks awesome and I'm just beginning, so I was like sweating and out of breath and she was just fine lol. But she is a lovely lady and I think I will message her and see if she wants to walk somewhere again next week (I've been sick this week)!

    I have met someone from another site (who is also here) a couple of times and I paced him to his personal best on a half marathon. It was an awesome feeling.

    You have such a narrow-minded view of people in social situations. It boggles the mind every time you post.

    I've met one person already.

    I'm also meeting three ladies in July. But I won't deny that it's cause they're hot and we're hooking up. :wink:

    No. I would though, if I met someone closer to me. If I wanted to date, itd be cool to meet someone on here, cuz I would know they have some of the same interests in fitness as I do, and are dedicated, hard working people, which I like in men I date. And lots of my girlfriends arent as into working out as I am, so itd be nice to meet new work out partners. Maybe find other girls in my area as into pole dancing as I am.

    I haven't, but a few on my FL live within a couple hours of me so I'd be open to the idea :) I've tried to recruit several IRL friends/co-workers to this site, but I don't think any of them have joined yet.
