Author D-Lish Posted June 12, 2008 Author Posted June 12, 2008 Atleast you didn't catch him in your bedroom, sniffing your underwear!! That happened to a friend of mine!! LOL! :lmao: I came home from class and caught my university room mate rummaging through my undie drawer (a guy)... creepy. He's left me numerous texts today. No- I'd never consider talking to him again. There are no second chances after a stunt like that!
Author D-Lish Posted June 13, 2008 Author Posted June 13, 2008 I'm sure he meant well. haha- the panty sniffer or the pub guy??? I am sure the panty sniffer meant well.... he meant "well, well, this is what heaven feels like...."
Prodigal Princess Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 I dunno. I do know that at a bar or a club is NOT the place. What crap. There are no "right" or "wrong" places to meet people. Most of my friends who are married or in long term relationships met their significant other in a bar or pub. Most of them were also random hook ups. It gives me hope! Oh and johan, your alien comment was great.
Author D-Lish Posted June 13, 2008 Author Posted June 13, 2008 Well, I can tell you that meeting single guys at a friends bbq isn't going to happen for me... All my friends are married with married friends.... I meet the odd person at a bar- but it's rare. Online dating is a crap shoot... meeting guys in bars generally amounts to some guy hoping for a drunken hook up... and I work in an industry primarily inundated by women and gay men.... I was genuinely happy to meet a seemingly cool guy at a pub who talked my ear off for a couple hours and then asked for my number instead of asking to go home with me. Then- he broke into my msn and kinda ruined it... lol. I really don't know where you go or how you go about meeting single people in this day and age.
jerbear Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 I really don't know where you go or how you go about meeting single people in this day and age. Any other social events or causes you are into? Maybe you can volunteer for a social cause, political cause, or a new hobby?
twice_shy Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 What crap. Your opinion. There are no "right" or "wrong" places to meet people. Really? Ok then, go to a KKK rally and see if that holds true still. Most of my friends who are married or in long term relationships met their significant other in a bar or pub. Most of them were also random hook ups. It gives me hope! I said club, not bar or pub(although depends on the interactions at those places). But then again, depends on the circumstances. I don't see a place like a club, where people like to act like they are boning each other on the dancefloor as condusive to finding a good mate. If you don't see it that way. That is fine. I won't tell you your opinion is "crap".
CaliGuy Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 I really don't know where you go or how you go about meeting single people in this day and age. Loveshack haha. (No really, it's happened!)
Author D-Lish Posted June 26, 2008 Author Posted June 26, 2008 Loveshack haha. (No really, it's happened!) Seriously? I've met people (males/females) on a friendly basis from here... not for dating though. Have you Cali? Please dish!!
Calisto Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 Well you stated in another thread that you were going out to the bars several times a week, putting back up to 15 beers a night and getting trashed. What kind of guys do you expect you're going to attract? (No offense, just sayin'.)
Jilly Bean Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 Seriously? I've met people (males/females) on a friendly basis from here... not for dating though. Have you Cali? Please dish!! I threw myself at Cali when he had his headcold last month. To no avail. So, I know it's not me... D - like the new profile pic, btw. Very avant garde!
Author D-Lish Posted June 26, 2008 Author Posted June 26, 2008 Well you stated in another thread that you were going out to the bars several times a week, putting back up to 15 beers a night and getting trashed. What kind of guys do you expect you're going to attract? (No offense, just sayin'.) No... I never said that at all. I don't go to bars often at all. I drink alone, at home or with my neighbours on our patio. I go to pubs with friends socially maybe one night a week. The points I illustrated about going out to pubs and getting drunk were examples of isolated incidents that I used to make a point that my alcoholism impairs judgement. I have only met a few people from going out to pubs in the past 2 years. I meet dates from online dating... And I don't go clubbing- never been my scene. When I do go out, it's to sit on a patio with friends at a pub. Drinking alone- that is my problem. The description of drinking everyday and consuming up to 15 beers is what I do AT HOME BY MYSELF. I haven't even been out to a pub in two weeks. Not that I don't go out and drink... I do. But my problem is hiding my alcohol from my friends and family out of embarrassment... hence the drinking alone. You misread what I said.
CaliGuy Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 Seriously? I've met people (males/females) on a friendly basis from here... not for dating though. Have you Cali? Please dish!! I did meet someone I liked but our paths were not in the same direction. In Latin it would be "Feces Occuri" (figure it out, lol). Can't really say that I see value anymore in people who don't see value in me. That's sorta where my attitude has been lately -- with dating and friends in general. Before I had the light that went off in my head I would be a doormat and try and get these people to like me. Now I realize that people come and go throughout your life. But those who understand and see value in you, cherish them deeply. They're a rare occurance.
CaliGuy Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 I threw myself at Cali when he had his headcold last month. To no avail. So, I know it's not me... It takes more than a little sweet-talking to get my motor humming, Jilly.

They can be anyone including your mentors, bad boss, and even a stranger on the street.
Jilly Bean Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 It takes more than a little sweet-talking to get my motor humming, Jilly. I can bake.
Gold Pile Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 I'm beginning to think I am going to live out my life as an old lady, just collecting stray dogs and giving them all the love I have left in me..Woof woof:love:
Author D-Lish Posted June 27, 2008 Author Posted June 27, 2008 Woof woof:love: awww, come 'ere!! I'll give ya a belly scratching and you can lick my face for treats! I met some people from LS that live in the area- but it was more of a social outing. I also met a girl from Chicago that I became friends with and she came to Toronto to visit. Never a love interest though. Online dating is boring me now... I talk to interesting people, but I just can't be bothered to meet up with them anymore. I've only had one encounter from online dating turn into something substantial. I've had a guy I have been crushing on for going on 10 years now. We're less than casual acquaintences- I just know him through another male friend who keeps me at arms length from this guy out of jealousy. I know the guy is interested too- but both of us are too chicken to make a move. I keep thinking one day I will just ask him out. I don't normally get nervous around guys- but with this guy I get butterflies and tongue tied like I'm in grade school. One of these days... Maybe you can teach me to bake Jilly- then I can impress him with my skills!
Jilly Bean Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 Maybe you can teach me to bake Jilly- then I can impress him with my skills! Screw the baking, girl. I'll teach you something that involves the raw talent you already possess...
Calisto Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 No offense but being good in bed really isn't rocket science.
CaliGuy Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 No offense but being good in bed really isn't rocket science. Hehe, that almost made me spit my coffee on the screen laughing. So true. I've heard the people who brag about their prowess are usually full of fecal material lol
Gold Pile Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 awww, come 'ere!! I'll give ya a belly scratching and you can lick my face for treats! works for me. A ten year crush!!!!??? If you're not into the "go between" guy then you should put yourself within flirting distance of the crush. If he doesn't make a move, then you should. I doubt many guys would reject you, and rejection isn't a big deal....it happens to me all the time. (really I swear it's true;)) You certainly know enough guys want you, so remember that if you get rejected.
