    "Deactivated"? Or they are buried under your floor boards?

    There's one guy on here who lives like 15 miles from me and I'm pretty sure I saw him on a dating site as well.
    Block!
    Totally don't need anyone that local.
    Is that weird?

    I guess that, that'd depend upon their/your; potential interest! I'd personally love to reside close enough to like 6 people with similar goals, even if the purpose's just to've a fitness/nutrition partner with; no intent for that to evolve into a friendship beyond that!

    I have several who are true friends. They grieved with me when my dad passed, one even sent flowers, I've sent gifts to a couple even. I met a friend when he came here for a conference. We went for drinks and dinner and talked about our families and it was great.

    Mfp is the weird pretend world but with anything I do think you can make connections. it is what it is.

    Not yet. But I have plans to meet someone I met through the site in July. Fingers crossed.

    I wouldn't meet anyone, I'm far too pretty to end up in prison

    Not deliberately. I like the anonymity of it.

    People are complicated and confusing. I just assume everyone else on the internet is a bot.

    And most peeps IRL are just dead inside. Fun times. :joy:

    I'd loved to meet some of my MFP'ers. Sadly, most are very far away. Those who are nearer to me, well, I guess I'm not "cool" enough. :joy:
