Thornton Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 And SCORE. Date number two. Ummm.....Online Dating Army? Advice? Now what?? How many times do I meet him in public before I can decide he will not slice and dice me? Hurrah for you! I would recommend quite a few dates before you trust him with your personal safety though. Spend time with him, assess his topics of conversation for anything dodgy sounding, ideally meet some of his friends who will no doubt vouch for his decency, and check him out as thoroughly as you can. I know it's naughty, but look him up online to make sure there's no wife lurking around and he's generally telling the truth. If he seems fairly consistent and respectful and caring, then perhaps invite him over to your place... don't go to his place until you're extremely sure he isn't going to lock you in the basement or something. Good luck
Author looking4 green grass Posted November 24, 2009 Author Posted November 24, 2009 My roommate and I did quite a bit of internet stalking today. Lucky for me they went to the same university so she could see his facebook page! muaahaha. And oddly enough my roomie and internet dude had several friends in common so she's doing some investigative work for me. Hopefully nobody will say he's a freak/butthead/psycho/weird.
Pizzaman81 Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 So in the middle of the IM he starts asking why I'm not fat and ugly..... Uhh.....because I'm not? Then he asked if I've never had a boyfriend before or been engaged (I'm divorced....so yeah I have) I tell him this, and he asked when I was going to tell him I was divorced. I said whenever he asked me. So then he asks me "why" I'm divorced. My divorce was Lifetime Movie Network meets Jerry Springer....dude has his penis on the internet, was doing other men, had bank accounts with other women, was stealing people's credit (including mine....*******) and turned out to be an abusive freakish psycho. That's not really what I want to explain over IM. I told him I had no problems discussing it in person, but it wasn't a conversation over IM. And he promptly logged off. Then I get a text that says he doesn't know if he wants to do dinner b/c he doesn't like it when someone hides something or doesn't tell him something. HELLO.....I don't know you wack job. Why would I tell you about my divorce???? So perhaps I need to run away. Spidey Sense says run away. He seems like a weirdo. He assumes everyone on online dating is fat and ugly. You should tell him that you expect him to be fat and ugly and if he's not then there's no chance!
