northstar1 Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Before I'm gone again, I want to add. The title of this thread should have been "Dreamer makes the rules" Peace and have fun watching the show:) Goodbye little Troll, I'm sure we'll see you again real soon....
jw90063 Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 I've said it once, and I'll say it again. This had nothing to do with ME. I was curious as who used the rules and who didn't. No references were made about my dating by me. LOL That's just it. You don't make the rules. Who cares if you didn't make the thread in reference to your dating situations(which everyone knows you did). People have the right to bring it up,and if you can't deal with, then don't make any threads at all or posts for that matter.
BCCA Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 He said it, not me. Dont feed the trolls dude
jw90063 Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Dont feed the trolls dude Hey, at least I'm a smart troll. We all know it is 100% accurate what I said. Ok, I'm done now, goodbye
tinktronik Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Hey, at least I'm a smart troll. We all know it is 100% accurate what I said. Ok, I'm done now, goodbye You have to wonder exactly who that troll was though. Clearly didn't have the sac to post under his/her actual name. pity.
Author dreamergrl Posted September 16, 2009 Author Posted September 16, 2009 Wow! Well that's going to be an enormously productive post. I think Dreamer that some people need rules in their lives for everything and some do not. You are apparently not one of them [and neither am I] but some others are. That's just the way people are. You get some flak because you do not have the "best" dating history. I can see you are having fun and kind of excited to be starting something nice. I think what mostly everyone here is getting at is to not get yourself hurt, be careful. I hope you have great fun with this new R, wether or not it works in any long term situation and that even if it does not that's okay with you too. I'm also going at dating with a new attitude, and several things have happened that I'd used to get upset and hurt over that I haven't let bring me down. I'll be fine with how it turns out. But it's not why I'm posting about the rules. I've seen it mentioned so many times on here, I wanted to know if people really go by them and to what extent. LOL That's just it. You don't make the rules. Who cares if you didn't make the thread in reference to your dating situations(which everyone knows you did). People have the right to bring it up,and if you can't deal with, then don't make any threads at all or posts for that matter. Seeing how my OP was not a topic of my dating life, it's actually going off topic, which isn't my rule, it's LS rule. Maybe if you'd stop getting yourself banned, you'd learn this.
northstar1 Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 You have to wonder exactly who that troll was though. Clearly didn't have the sac to post under his/her actual name. pity. It's pretty easy to figure out who it is. Same person who keeps getting banned and coming back.
caramel c Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Can I have some popcorn? Of course. Butter & salt?
Star Gazer Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 It's pretty easy to figure out who it is. Same person who keeps getting banned and coming back. Which one? I swear, I don't have good return-as-someone-else-dar. I can't say I disagree with the substance though, obviously.
tinktronik Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 It's pretty easy to figure out who it is. Same person who keeps getting banned and coming back. Oh no,no,no. There is like 5 different posters who do that. DG, I get what you are saying. The worm has turned on this post. To stay on topic I don't follow any rules.
northstar1 Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Oh no,no,no. There is like 5 different posters who do that. DG, I get what you are saying. The worm has turned on this post.

To stay on topic I don't follow any rules.There's more than 5 or maybe it's 1 who keeps returning as a billion! People are so whacked upside the head to do this alternate userid attack thing.

kizik Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Just gotta say, Tony must be on vacation or something. Normally he's all over these battle threads like sh*t on rice.
westernxer Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 I JUST had a female friend tell me that she didnt think this guy was really interested because he called once, left a message and she didnt return it, but then he never called again. It never once occured to her that he probably didnt think you were interested because you didnt return his call. When I told her she looked stunned. That guy was probably me. LOL
SoulSearch_CO Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 3 - Do you think that with the right person, you'd need to play games (ex: making them think you're busy, when you're not, so they chase you more) Negatory. It's important to have a healthy balance, though. Not tripping over yourself to make yourself available 24/7 - continue to have a life. At the same time, don't IGNORE somebody like you're trying to prove a point ("look at me, look at me...I'm so busy and important and you are SO low on my priority list...better jump through extra hoops to make me notice you!")
callingyouuu Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 I don't think that the rules are necessarily useless. What's more important than using them to try to attract people of the opposite sex is understanding why they exist in the first place. Most of them correlate with mistakes that lots of people make early on in their dating experience. For example, the whole thing about not calling too quickly after the first date is nothing more than a corollary to the often late-learned lesson that we shouldn't forget about our own lives while pursuing someone else's. So should rules be directly used? No, not unless you want to seem like a complete loser and have people complain about you on internet forums. However, when you look into the fundamental principle behind the "rule", I think you can learn a lot about the dating process and make fewer mistakes early by looking at not the rule itself but the justification behind it.

Very well said.
