Go past the section I'm sitting in. I'll put the drawing pad away and we'll have our date there. No chitlins this time.

I don't knock myspace anymore. I used to get mad at all the random "hey baby, what's ups" but then one approached me very sincerely with compliments that had nothing to do with any part of me below the neck. It was quite refreshing--we dated for a few months and ended things with good feelings. I do feel quite blessed about the whole situation and am really not into trying it a second time.

Sounds like everything was cool. Why did you end it? Just curious.

Should've been more specific. I meant it more like "Someone was seriously looking out for me this time. I'll leave it alone--might not be great next time."

1. He was trying to make me "Insta-Girlfriend" even though I told him upfront that I was graduating and about to move. 2. My phone bill was out of this world. He earned himself "bugaboo" status the way he was texting me.

If you really liked each other why not try the long distance thing?

If I could direct you back to the original thread, I would. But I don't feel like figuring out how.

I'll fight for my man, but I can't compete with someone who's not there anymore. So, if I have to take man with 3 rolley-bags over man with 1 footlocker, then sobeit.

I happen to work at Borders and I meet alot of interesting guys!

I did the internet meeting thing and I was not feeling it at all. It just seemed like alot of the guys were very....deceptive.

I don't have any use for dating.. haven't been for awhile, I got married 2 years ago to the girl I'd been dating for 5 years prior.

My law school classmates, however, have been cleaning up on EHarmony. Out of the 4 I know who have used it, 2 are married to the people they met there.

Ok I'm new to this

But I am having the same issue horribly. I moved across the country without ANYONE I know. I work long hours and I have no clue how to meet new people. We have a Barnes and Noble next to my job but whenever I go in there its just to grab a bite to eat and return to work. **side bar the Barnes and Nobel next to my job is the one that is featured on Run's Hose** My company moved me out into the boonies and I work ALL day on Saturday's. What do you guys think?

^^^I think you're me in disguise and if anyone figures out how to combat the scene you just described, please send up a Bat signal.
