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.

LOL why did i pass a Borders today in the mall and left a small part of my heart open in the hopes that youd be sketching in a corner between Joel Osteen and test prep books...

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.

Christiangirl this may be an inside joke for you and PB but I think a bookstore is an okay place to meet a guy!
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 met my boyfriend on MySpace and now we're buying a house together. My brother met his wife on LavaLife. Online dating isn't as bad as it sounds, miracles do happen
And I think a Greek Dating Site would be neat - but I thought it already existed somewhere... just don't make people pay for it, those sites suck. Just get sponsors and have ads, people don't care.

Church. Work. The gym (hey, at least you know they care about physical fitness) Club and organizations.
I have a complex with strangers. If I don't personally know you or have a trustworthy friend who can vouch for you - you gets no love from me. LOL. MySpace and the like are totally out of the question for me.

Yeah I definitely am not down to pay for a dating site and I just don't wanna be "that guy" on myspace, especially because all of my female friends constantly complain about randoms hitting them up.
I don't know how people can hit on people at the gym, I'm usually far too focused on my work out to try and talk to someone. Church... I usually go, get in, gitter done, and get out, I go solo and don't know many people so there's not any real reason for me to stick around and socialize.
I think I just need to break out of my shell but it's hard sometimes when you're not in your comfort zone
