Men v Women Facial Expressions
Agree? Disagree?? :bigsmile: Why Men's Facial Expressions Can Make Women Nervous There are many stereotypes that exist when it comes to the differences between men and women. This is especially true when it comes to communication styles between the two sexes. We expect men to be somewhat without emotion when communicating.…

POF better or worse than OK Cupid?
Have been using OK Cupid, with pretty miserable results. Just wondering if Plenty of Fish is more of the same or better? I may consider switching to a paid service soon, just because I feel like it might weed out some of the undesirables, but maybe not? Any thoughts or opinions here? Please? :smile:

Trip Canceled... Would you believe me?
I landed from my business trip today and find out that instead of climbing into the car to hit the beach with a friend, I'm going home (she had an emergency pop up). She has to cancel our trip. Trying to make me feel better, she said I could now go out with those guys I turned down for the weekend. I think I still may…

date outfit question for the men
Consider this scenario... You're taking a girl out on a date to a MLB baseball game. Which outfit would you rather see her in? Women, if you're reading this, which outfit would you wear? Number one: or Number two: or Number three: This is in response to an article I read tonight. I am curious about which one a man would…

5 year old's opinion on dating
So my cousin posted a facebook status update earlier today that read: "Oh boy!! (3 year old daughter) just asked (5 year old son) if he had a girlfriend. His response..."I wish because I am not doing internet dating." She has no clue where he picked that one up.

Hey, guess what?!
SO I went out with a guy, "Hulk", (6'5... Big arms, broad shoulders and wide back... Not my typical type) on Monday. We went for margaritas and it went well. He was very nice and complimented me right away that I looked great and hot. Which by the way, I've dated 3 men from online in the last 3 weeks and so far all of them…

I'm a moron, and I make horrible decisions
So I went on a date last night with a young lady, who when texting asked all the right questions, had great conversation skills, and even seemed cute in her pictures. Unfortunately she was nothing like that in person. She acted like a 14 year old hyper child, spouting off random things at random times, using horrible catch…

What is your definition of "Casual Dating?"
Was chatting with some of my MFP friends about what it means to date casually because it seemed like we were doing the same thing, yet they didn't seem to think it a good idea for me. I was really surprised that to learn that when most guys hear a woman, like me, say I casually date, it gives the impression that I date…

Runners, Loggers, Locals and Supporters
I've been on here since Feb of this year and have a relatively short FL. Of those, I can only count on a few to log, support and work like they want their goals to happen. I'm not complaining, some others have good humor and I can count on them for a laugh now and then. I'm a runner, lifter, log everyday and motivate…

Best Messages Ever
This is just a place to put the best/worst/most hilarious messages you've received from someone online. I have a couple to add from okcupid. The first is apparently a star wars reference but I've never seen star wars and didn't refer to it in my profile. "You've never heard of the Millennium Falcon? She's the ship that…

Do you know you are being "hit on"?
Some may think this is a silly question, but my coworkers tell me I am dense. I work in a construction office and we have a lot of contractors come in ........... now in their business due to machines, etc. MANY of them can't/don't wear wedding rings so that avenue of seeing if married is not valid--not that it ever occurs…

Question for ya'll
Anna and I have been discussing the guy I have been on two dates with a little and I am curious about something. I know that we have only been on two dates and I am not yet emotionally invested but I am interested in continuing to get to know him. However, I have been talking to another guy and he and I have not yet met.…

The ecard thread...
I thought that it might be fun to make a thread where we make up ecards and post them here. There are two rules - it has to be written by you and it must relate to you in some way (rather than just any funny comment).

Dating Advice
I'd LOVE to hear what the best dating advice you ever got was! Patti Stanger gave some of my favorites. One of them is that while you are on a date, have a 2 drink maximum. You don't want to get drunk and do something you wouldn't normally do.

Overthinking over analyzing stressing too much!!
So I'm 20 and I've been seeing this guy for almost 2 months but he works away so it's probably been shorter than that but we do talk everyday.. (he is the first guy I've ever gone out with) and I don't know what it Is but I over analyze and think about everything! I've always had this wierd mind set that I'm the one who…

Small town,rural meeting people woes.
DM posted this in another thread and leads me into something I have noticed here. What I have observed is that when relationships or marriages end it seems as though both men and women quickly gravitate towards someone who has also just experienced the same. Pretty much if you are a never married (me) or it has been years…

Cool Girl or Disrespecting Self?
I posted this in another thread: Someone was surprised that I would write this about allowing “drool time.” I feel more than “a few minutes” of appreciation is taking it too far… but at the same time I think it’s pointless to try and pretend that guys don’t appreciate the beauty of someone hot. What do you think?

Why do guys do this?
Went out to dinner with a platonic guy friend (we paid our own tickets, just “killing time” together not a date). After dinner we go outside and spend the next three hours talking about deep stuff, and he mentions how beautiful I am and how I’m the whole package and he’s being a little touchy feely/huggy. I'm like, yeah…

My first weekend away from the bf!
I'm going to Houston this weekend to meet and train with my Tough Mudder team which I'm super excited about! But I'm also a tiny bit bummed because weekends are normally spent with Steve. Since we both have such busy schedules on weekdays, we normally don't see each other too often until the weekend. I know I'll have a…

Weekend Updates
Another weekend down, so let's hear the updates about anything you did. :) Every two months I get a Saturday/Sunday without my son. This is because of his father's 4 on 2 off schedule. Anyway, a couple of friends and I went out and I have to admit, I looked pretty damn awesome. I didn't meet anyone, but that is okay, I had…

Abandonment / Rejection Issues
I was wondering if anyone else has abandonment and/or rejection issues and if so, how do you deal with them? It stems from my childhood and I've developed some unhealthy coping mechanisms that I'd like to change. To prevent myself from getting hurt, I've built a wall around myself and let very few in. Also, when I sense…

Feeling like a Dork
So the reason I don't like pay sites is because you have to pay lol..and then if nothing comes out of it..you're feeling rejected and out of money. But I can't stand POF in my city any more the faces never change. And despite all of my activities that I do..kayaking, hiking, running..I can't seem to luck out with a bunch…

IF they didnt like me before Mentality
I have heard so many people say that if so and so didnt want to date me while I was fat, they cant have me now. Do you agree with this? My opinion is, I didnt like me when i was fat so I am changing it. So, Why would I expect different from others?

When to tell the truth??
So I got one of those Evan Katz emails today... and while I understand the purpose of the first date is for FUN, I kinda take issue with some of what he said, even though I know it's true. For example, that guy who told me he sleeps with the CPAP machine, hasn't camped in 10 years, hasn't done any sports or been to…
