I've never been game to venture further.<BR/><BR/>A friend of mine, however, has been doing so for years and is always telling me I should. She's met a few through one of the sites here in Aus., but not "Mr. Right'...but, then, I don't think she's looking for commitment anyway.<BR/><BR/>All the best in your dating, Smukke...I think I'm just too lazy to be bothered! lol But honesty, upfront, is the only way to go, I believe.Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835982875620956300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19000293.post-21200249171693102892007-02-11T16:07:00.000-06:002007-02-11T16:07:00.000-06:00Ugh, I feel for you gals in the trenches.

Hang in there-- you have a great sense of humor and a realistic outlook about it. I hope you keep blogging about it. I will live vicariously through you, okay? : )Goat Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13864881566975538783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19000293.post-58939244871822033232007-02-11T15:31:00.000-06:002007-02-11T15:31:00.000-06:00You forgot another category of creepy men: the mar...You forgot another category of creepy men: the married-and-lying-about-it. A friend of mine who's been on a number of dates based on online matching services has found several guys she's enjoyed tremendously. <BR/><BR/>She dated one of them for something like five months before he mentioned that, oh, yeah, he was married. <BR/><BR/>Other than that he's a really nice, funny, considerate guy who would, other than that little detail, probably be an outstanding match for her. But I can't help questioning the wisdom of continuing in a relationship which has a rather grand-scale lie as part of its foundation. I can't figure out why she thinks he wouldn't do exactly the same thing to her one day. Oh, yeah, and he's still married.<BR/><BR/>Another guy was supposedly separated from his wife but wasn't all that separated, as it turned out... though he quickly became so once the extra-marital dating became evident to his wife. <BR/>On the other hand, we've got a friend locally who's done a lot of matching service dating and, after dating about a dozen women for one or two dates, and one for a matter of months, he's finally found a great match. They've been together for a good while, now, and just got an apartment together. It looks very promising, and she hasn't dumped him because of the strange people he hangs out with, so I guess she's a keeper.<BR/><BR/>--CarlaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
