I know it! Not to mention that she's (if she's a she, that is -- and not a mimic/poser/sting/masquerade/facade user) practically selling her body (showing off) and apparently into young men. (creepy.)

- I'm meeting up with someone within my age group, in a public area, in a family-friend's workplace.
- I've been speaking with the red-flag/creepy woman, being extremely cautious. I'm trying to squeeze her (for information) to get to know her alot better.
- I've maintained slow friendships with a small handful, but they're mostly busy.
I don't know if this is the right way to go, but maintaining that I'm at least looking for friends to hang out with and not just a relationship, I seem to be on the right path. I hope to make the end of battle.
When in doubt, use fire.

Awesome, awesome! I wish you luck! I've done this before, but not on a site that ranks compatibility.  My highest so far (that I'm talking to) is 74%. None of my contacts are a *perfect match* (I can't imagine finding someone like me, I'm far too unique!) but you're right that we can at least find friends and not just look for exclusive relationships. |

I agree, as I tend to agree to the popularly disagreeable. Sonic '06, anyone? |

We're going to eat pizza (or something from the in-town pizza restaurant) and go snowboarding! (this will be a first time for me) At least it should be sunny on Monday, which is awesome! I'm actually looking forward to this now, something new.

I can't jihad over that. I eat anything. Good advice for snowboarding, though -- I'll try not to, but I don't guarantee anything. XD |

Our Wad may have a field day with this. The one that's 9 years older than me, apparently has 5 kids. That was the final straw for me. I need alot more experience with children and tolerance before attempting anything like that, even if it's just a friendship. I just take care of my niece every day, that's enough for me. Besides, blood is thicker; hypothetically, I couldn't have as much love for someone else's kid as I would for my own, I know that much.
Yay, I've eliminated one! XD

She had an otherwise good excuse; she was new, so her profile wasn't perfect. Had she mentioned the 5 kids sooner, I'd definately have done without responding. The one I'm meeting on monday isn't a big gamer outside of the musical/rhythm titles, which in my mind I'm going to be open about -- I love those types of games anyway, so I have no issues with the likelihood that she isn't a big action/adventure/rpg/platformer/old school/etc. fan. It'd be a different story if she extremely hated gaming to the point where I'd have to listen to her generalized commentary on how dumb/annoying/frustrating/etc. games are, everytime I played. (Unsurprisingly, this has happened to me.) // Do I HAVE to shave? Seriously? My sister kept pestering me about it before she left. Honestly, all that says about me is that I'm not genuine, and that I'm trying to impress someone else with a clean-shaven facade. >_>" |

It's non-specific in my case. Neck-beard could go. XD The Elvis sideburns could go. I always wanted a mustache and goatee.
Without those features, I still look like I did in that black and white picture in the member picture thread -- extremely young, and extremely familiar.
I could shave.

As long as I don't get turned into a vampire or chop my beloved into 17 pieces of meat, I'm happy. XD

Mine might be called off, due to sudden illness -- not me, her.

On the one hand, not shaving would be good, as it would give her a more "muted" impression of you, and thus help determine right away if she's genuinely interested. On the other, though, you only get one first impression, so it might as well be a good one.  I'd recommend shaving, unless you're specifically trying to grow out a beard or mustache or something. -Tom Bah just be yourself!! The first date I went on with Heather, I showed up in a very broken rusted F150 (like 80's rusted), listening to Metallica, and I still smoked. She used to choreograph Hip Hop dancing at a fitness center. Think is she thought I was funny, and she liked me for me, so booyah it went well.  |

If you have to pretend or bite your tongue ro get someone to like you then they don't really like you at all. When I first met my husband he had an ancient silver Volvo held together with duct tape and hope - of course I took the mick, but it made me more relaxed because I knew he wasn't trying to hide anything, and it meant I could see that he wanted me "warts 'n all" too. |

Thanks, awesome advice.  It makes sense to listen to people who have experienced life and know what they're talking about. ...as opposed to my sister who's all "SHAVE IT!!!" and "glamour this, designer that", "I am a veteran". I have to pick on her! What kind of little brother would I be if I didn't? |
