Smthn_Like_Olivia Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Do people really date on Craigslist?? All I ever see in their personals section are ads for random hookups and an overbundance of penis shots. Gross. I feel like the whole Personals section needs to be sterilized and wrapped in a giant condom. 5
Mariposa10 Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 I think the problem here is that OP wanted to get some action Btw, I'm 26 years old and go to sleep at 11, at the latest. I gotta look good can't miss my beauty sleep. 2
ltjg45 Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 The only time I am up at midnight on a Saturday night is when I'm working at my job. Other than that, I would be asleep by 9 PM unless something is happening, which most likely isn't. 1
Hopeful30 Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Umm.... I go to bed at 10 pm almost every day. I don't like to party or drink... that doesn't mean I'm weird. On the contrary any man would be lucky to have me. She just has a different lifestyle and by the way you reacted, you sound very immature. She's grown up from all of that, or maybe she had a long week or wants to be alone. The fact that you're judging her already just because of ONE night is pretty immature if you ask me. Find a girl at a club then, if that's what's important to you. 1
Scales Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Lol at everyone in this thread justifying their sleep time. As if the OP made a post about how going to bed at 11:00 is for losers. Thats not the point. The point is that she wouldn't sacrifice her weekend sleep time to talk to OP for like an hour. Maybe their previous exchange was going well and OP thought it was going well for him. Hes mad because the girl would not invest in him the same way he would for a potential mate. Sacrificing an hour of sleep to talk to someone who could potentially be your next lover is no big deal at all. Most people would especially on a Saturday. The fact that she won't for him is a form of rejection. Perfect time to chill and play the field. If she wants you she'll find a way to contact you. Otherwise don't sweat it. 1

I know OLD has certain knocks against it, but Craigslist? I think there is that undercurrent a lot of people are weirded out by. And by the fact that OP feels entitled to a phone conversation. 1
MidwestUSA Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Can you get her on a violation of craigslist terms and conditions? I mean isn't there some type of minimum standard that people cruising for personals need to be held to? I mean really! What is your wasted time and bruised ego worth? Small claims court, yep, that's the route. 2
StanMusial Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 I don't think dudes who troll Craig's List for girls have any right to complain over something as innocuous as an "early" bed time. Maybe come back when you find out she's an ax murderer. 1
RonaldS Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 (edited) Threads like this are what is known as 'free entertainment'. In the old days, pre-internet, we used to have to wait for one of our buddies or a neighbor or a fat chick at a bowling alley or some drunk idiot at the bar to do something completely stupid, come unhinged and then go on tilt over something meaningless to get that kind of free entertainment. Now it's as easy as a few clicks. Thanks OP! Edited January 19, 2014 by RonaldS 3
Author WP4046 Posted January 19, 2014 Author Posted January 19, 2014 Well maybe this woman happened to be a night owl, or well-rested or maybe she just really enjoyed talking to you? Honestly, I don't think that it was strange or weird at all that the 26 year old said that she was going to bed at 11:30pm. I do think it's strange that you find it strange. There could be a million very valid reasons why she would say that she was going to bed. She really could have been exhausted, she may have not enjoyed chatting to you as much as you thought or like I said before, she might have wanted to just sit back, relax and watch a movie. Either way, I am glad to hear that you found someone else to talk to and enjoyed chatting to each other all night. Maybe she is better suited to you than the other girl? Not everyone likes talking on the phone either, so keep that in mind. That's probably what it is which is another reason why I have no interest
Author WP4046 Posted January 19, 2014 Author Posted January 19, 2014 OP correct me if I am wrong you were on CL looking for NSA fun? In that case I agree her not wanting to talk on the phone then possibly even meet you is odd. I mean she responded to an ad in that section what did she think it was? Pictures were exchanged, I'll bet, so wtf? Just assume she saw a guy with leaner abs and bailed on you. NEXT! No my ad was in the strictly platonic section seeking a phone/cuddle buddy
Author WP4046 Posted January 19, 2014 Author Posted January 19, 2014 I expect normal well adjusted people to not be spending their Saturday nights trolling CL for dates. So you're not that cool either, I guess. Correction, she was trolling CL for dates since it was her who responded to my ad that was posted on saturday afternoon anything else?
truth_seeker Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 I expect someone who is 26 not to be in bed on a sat night before 12am I expect someone who is 26, a female, to be in bed on a sat night before 12am... with me.

bentleychic Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 that tonight is not a good night to call because she is about to go to sleep?????? She is going to sleep at her age on a saturday night at 11:30pm? You know after just getting this text I don't even want to get to know her anymore because she just sounds like a flat out weirdo. Damm she couldn't lie and say she was out with her friends? So instead of talking to someone on the phone she responded to on craigslist, she would rather get under the blanket and go to sleep? If that's not the stupidest thing i ever heard I'm thinking judging someone by their bed time is one of the stupidest things I've heard, actually. Do her a favor, leave her alone. 1

truth_seeker Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 do you go to bed at 11pm because you work on sundays? Look, she lost interest. I know, it sucks. Your ego is bruised. It happens. You know how you recover? You meet another girl.

Otherwise don't sweat it. she text me today but of course i am not available because I will be watching football all day. And like you said, the fact that she would go to bed on a sat rather than talk to someone who could be a potential mate was really a turn off if she had said she works on sunday or goes to church in the morning but to just flat say I;m tired was a turnoff
Author WP4046 Posted January 19, 2014 Author Posted January 19, 2014 I'm thinking judging someone by their bed time is one of the stupidest things I've heard, actually. Do her a favor, leave her alone. I already planned on doing that since I;m turned off
bentleychic Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 I already planned on doing that since I;m turned off Good for her! I'll have to remember that going to bed early line next time I want a creeper to leave me alone. 2
Author WP4046 Posted January 19, 2014 Author Posted January 19, 2014 Good for her! I'll have to remember that going to bed early line next time I want a creeper to leave me alone. Can't be too much of a creeper since she sent a text today which of course I will ignore
truth_seeker Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Can't be too much of a creeper since she sent a text today which of course I will ignore OP makes a good point.
bentleychic Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Can't be too much of a creeper since she sent a text today which of course I will ignore I actually didn't mean YOU are a creeper. I don't know you! LOL I have a hard time getting rid of creepers and stalkers, though. Never tried the "going to bed early" trick so it's definitely worth trying!!!
