    I'm totally on here to date everyone thats why i have so many friends...its a fitness site, the chit chat is to entertain at most. If anyone from Maryland wants to go on a running date with me thats totally cool with me.

    I'd take up a running date over the occasional ONS messages I get from men who live relatively close to me. Havent they heard of tinder?!

    Running dates are simple, we run we run, then we say bye and go home and cuddle a lone in our beds tired then we can do it again some other time haha, life is simple sometimes

    I don't run with men (other than when i was with my stupid ex), I mostly have female running / gym buddies... other than the gym randos who I have gotten to know.

    I think you have inspired me to find male running dates!

    Lol, Awesome!, i like to run alone most of the time, since I'm doing running to reach a goal. Once i start pacing my runs a little better ill start finding someone to go run with if it matters, but really i just crank my music and go.

    I typically run alone too, depending on my goal - distance / half or speed training etc. But its fun to rub with friends at an easy pace. Would be about 63% better if it were a good looking man. Just saying lol

    ahaah! Rub with friends? yeah i guess that makes it easier idk hahaha....i guess a good looking guy would inspire you to run faster to him? would he have to be faster than you? im thinking that's the only way that works.

    Haha rub my friends... didnt even catch that typo!

    Sure if he was faster he could help me pick up my pace. Or he could just leisurely jog next to me while I looked at his pretty face... and sweet a**. (Because, apparently, he would have a good butt. Obvi)

    oh right, haha youre crazy but funny i like that...you inspire me to find some cute girls to run with so i can do the same, totally wont be creepy right?

    Coming soon to Chit Chat.

    Would you rub with the poster above, and if so would it hurt your running pace?

    Finally the question is posed! No one has ever made a thread to ask this question before!

    Has there been any real "dates" as a result of being on this site??

    There is a couple who met on here and got married. Neither of them are on my FL, but they're out there.

    And someone on my FL met a long-term boyfriend on here.

    It happens :joy::joy:

    The funny runners are the best. I have a group of friends and when we run events together our team name is We've Got the Runs.

    You definitely need cute, funny, girl running friends! Not creepy at all. If you're on IG- also a part of the social running group #werunsocial

    Im very anti-social IRL because im very shy lol, I have my group of friends that workout but they all lift weights, im the only Runner...i will keep that in mind because i do have Insta but i like to keep to myself. It makes it easier for me and doesnt give me anymore responsibilities to meet up anywhere haha.

    Well, shoot. I'm the opposite. Really social (it's probably obvious and translates on here also)

    Well if you're private on your IG I get it, thats okay! The we run social group is across the US (or world potentially), but have meet ups before big runs - run disney, LA /SD / OC / NYC / Boston marathons and tons of other events where lots of us will be running. Its fun to follow if you wanted to you never have to actually meet but its fun and inspiring - we all connect mostly through social media.

    I see you noticed too. It's utterly stupid. It must be all the time spent on electronic devices causing the brain damage.

    Its every site that has an option to talk to some one else. I know people who have met their significant others on a lot of different sites, that are not dating sites.

    I used to be a member here before and back then, I remember people posting serious stuff, even politival things, but you could actually count down the seconds until those threads crashed and burned. I guess people are trying to tread on safer ground now. However, I wish they'd separate the forums for fun / games and chit chat. I don't particularly mind those threads, whatever floats your boat really, but scrolling past them to see other things can be a pain.

    Common interests. Some people have fitness as a common interest, they build upon that common interest into a relationship/more. Same as a D&D website, same as a bookworm website, same as a gardening website.

    Not a dating site...just a lot of people catfishing and sending inappropriate messages to other users B)

    This site seems to have replaced FB for some...for me, I do enjoy a little frivolity to break up the monotony of the day.

    Yeah I was really surprised by the number of "rate/say something about/cyber bang the person above" threads when I first came on here because I was like, don't you have to be 18 to be on this site? Do people over 18 (13?) really do this? I'm all for off-topic fun and completely ridiculous posts but most of the chit chat threads on here are so odd. I'm surprised there aren't like Myspace style quiz threads too.

    I imagine this place is a dating site in the same way the grocery store is a place to meet dudes... it has happened before and people have gotten married after meeting pretty much anywhere, but I don't think most people are actively seeking spouses.

    That's mainly because most people already have spouses :wink: but it sure doesn't stop them from trying!
