Reading the boards...
So... I was reading the thread "Boyfriend pillow" when my daughter asked me, "When is Black Friday?" My response? "The day after sex..." LMBO Yes, we thought it was funny...

Too Many Choices
A couple of weeks ago, I decided to take a different approach to dating. Okay, that's not really true. The truth is that I got my feelings hurt when a friend poofed on me which brought back all of those familiar feelings of being unloveable and unworthy and undesirable. So, I told myself that I was not meant for a…

Intimidation
Okay, let me start with an apology. My intent in posting this thread is not to offend anyone. Stir up a good debate? Maybe. Ask an honest question in search of the truth (out of curiosity in the psychological reasoning)? Yes, I have heard it said many times and read it a few times on this board: "Men are just intimidated…

Just so you know...
After reading NC's post about "Is what you're doing really working?" I have to share this... I've had profiles on various dating sites in the past, and in the past, I've always selected "looking for a relationship" and posted pics, etc. I've always had several views, but not quite as many messages. I deleted my profiles in…

A Poof Rant...
I know this is old... and everyone has been poofed on... and probably poofed... But I need to rant... I've been talking to this one guy for over a month. We've talked for hours, about so many things... We've had those deep intellectual conversations, we've talked about our fears, our hopes, our dreams... we've talked about…

Do we make it harder than it is?
Should I text? Whose turn is it to call/text? Should I ask her/him out? Who decides where to go? Who pays? What do I wear? Should we kiss? What if he only gave me a handshake? Whose turn is it to initiate a second/third date? Am I being friendzoned? When should we have sex? I am guilty. I admit it. I really liked this one…

I LOVE when a man...
Okay, so I saw on another post someone saying that Single Peeps is a battle of the sexes, and that we women tend to do the male bashing parties here. So... I started thinking about all the wonderful things I like about men because I do truly admire the opposite sex. I'll start. I LOVE when a man cooks for me. I LOVE when a…

What if I'm just not hungry?
I've been reading all the posts about eating enough calories and BMR and TDEE. But what if I'm just not hungry? What if I don't eat that many calories? As long as I'm eating healthy, eating 1200 calories, exercising, drinking lots of water... is that okay? I have quite a bit of weight to lose. I understand that I will most…

SHHH... Don't ruin the plot...
I'm talking to this guy, and he just watched a movie that I want to see. He tells me it's good. Okay. Great. Thanks. I can't wait to see it. He, then, says, "It has a twist to the movie... " Don't tell me anymore. I don't want to know. I want to be surprised. He won't shut up! I'm quite aggravated. Okay, vent done. *P.S. I…

Job Snob
Does it matter to you what the person you date does for a living? Do you care how much money they make? Would you go out with someone unemployed or who was unhappy with their job? I'm not a materialistic person, and I don't necessarily care how much money someone makes as long as he is stable and can take care of his…

HEY, Single Peeps!
Just wanted to say HAVE A GREAT DAY!!! No matter WHERE you are in the world or WHEN you are, I hope that today is FANTASTIC for you! :happy: I'm about to go hang out with a bunch of kids and go swimming this afternoon. Okay, that's all. Now you may get back to your regularly scheduled programming.

The texting game...
I have a friend who has been doing the online dating for a couple of years, and I am just dabbling in it again after a divorce in May. She informed me that you are supposed to take turns texting. For instance, if he texts me, then I'm supposed to text him next, or he may not ever text me again. I thought that was kind of…

What's your limit? (for online daters)
Do you talk to one person at a time? Several people? Do you put a cap on the number of potential interests you talk to at any given time? Say, you're talking to several, already having a hard time keeping up with who is who, and you get another pursuer, do you ignore that one or let someone else go or just add them to the…

When a guy asks about his appearance
On more than one occassion, I've had a man ask me, "So, what do you think?" My response is, "What do I think about what?" He usually replies with something like, "me," "my pictures," or "my appearance." Okay, really, what am I supposed to say to this. It really makes me uncomfortable. I mean, what if I don't like what I…

Curious: How much contact do you have Before meeting?
I'm just curious. I "met" this guy on speeddate.com. We briefly chatted on the site, but quickly moved to texting and talking on the phone. When I say quickly, I mean within minutes. Yeah yeah yeah... I know, most people don't give out their phone numbers so quickly. But I honestly don't care. I have caller ID, so if I end…

Online Dating Scammers
I swear I get more than my fair share of these type contacts. I had to change my FB account to a more private setting because of this. Any given day, I could have up to 10 unsolcited messages from scammers on FB. UGH. If only they were real! LOL I think I've got another one... but he's a little smarter than some of them,…

I get really confused by...
people whose profile pictures are of the opposite sex... I will think it's a guy posting because there is a guy in the profile pic... And something in their post will make me think, "Hmmmm..." so I take a peek at the profile to find out that it's actually a female... Just sayin' Hope you all have a GREAT day today!!! Feel…

Day 3 done...
For some reason, I have to motivate myself to do the workout, but once I am finished, I feel great. I love how varied it is. Just when I think I'm gonna die, the workout changes. LOVE THAT. And it's only twenty minutes! Surely, I can fit twenty minutes into my day. :) Even when I'm tired, like today... I feel so much…

Help! Question is specifically related to Women...
Okay, so last night I was looking in the mirror and noticed some changes in my body since I've been exercising more. I started with walking and dancing around in my living room. Currently, I am going through 30 Day Shred (last night was day 3) and I also have a country line dance workout dvd that I use. Some of the changes…

Looking for friends
Hi. My name is Darla. I have been using MFP for a little over a week now and am loving it. It really helps to be aware of what I am putting into my body. I live in southern Arkansas but would love to meet people (even if it's just here online) so that we can encourage and motivate one another.
