ACK!!! I think old is really a tough place, we all know it....but it is sooo frustrating and deceiving too! Only 1 of 4 have looked like their pictures so far! Some have been so disappointing, it is not funny. Today, the guy I met (he did finally call and want to meet, even after ignoring me on the IM the other day) today was not as nice looking as one would think from his pictures, but not only that, he had a bad attitude...really was over-upset with being stuck in traffic....and then wanted a "drink" badly...and still seemed to be almost angry because I told him I had met other people from OLD and might continue to see one guy. We walked as we talked...He said he wanted a one on one and not a dating people thing...I said, yeah, I want that too....but you have to get to know people first to know if you want to be one on one with them....He agreed. But he gave me sarcastic looks right off the bat....seemed angry. I called him on it an said we are having the drink and leaving (the restaurant). I put up with no *stuff* in that regard with anger over nothing and attitudes. Who needs it?
I spoke to my favorite guy online. But he too is probaby *really* going to be history sometime soon....No really...I mean it. ;)

Hi,
Oh, it is just a bundle of laughs on OLD! LOL! :D I really don't like it much....except I did meet the one guy I do like...but he is so hard to figure out. I am hanging on with him by a thread. But that is what it is all about...taking that chance. I am thankful I met one I like as well as I like him!! Now, as for ghosting....that has not happened to me yet. Not really. I guess we all have our own problems on OLD! LOL Some of us have ghosts and some of us just get meets that are NOT what we hope for! @@ Good luck on your upcoming date-go-round! ;)

Blah...yeah, I know what you gals mean. For some reason the majority of the last few guys I've been in contact with just are WAY too straight to the point. One guy messaged me on the instant messanger on Lava, and the second thing he said to me was asking to see my backstage...then the third was giving me his MSN...then when we got on MSN he asked for MORE pictures of me! He could barely carry on a conversation...every second thing he said was "can I have another pic?"...um, no!! I don't even know what he was using them for :P
Another guy sends me an email, telling me what our first date is going to be like...which is fine enough I guess. But, he's MSN'd me twice...both starting with "so, when are we going to meet?", and references to this 'first date' he's thought up (which I'm sure is what he tells EVERY girl)...like, calm down buddy! The least I should get is a bit of small talk before getting down to 'business', you know? The worst thing is, when I ask him to at least talk to me for a bit, he asks me things that he should know if he even glanced at my profile...like what I do for instance. Sigh...it's a fun game sometimes, isn't it?

Sara,
I hope you told "angry guy" to get lost. Chances are he was on his BEST behavior today - only down hill from here! You're too nice to have someone like that dragging you down. Just my 2 cents.

I'm just gonna take a break for a while and try to come back fresh. I do believe that someday this will all be worth it.
Hi Debbie,
Yes, he is a goner! Thanks. He really had some anger issues...and maybe even a drinking problem.
Sara
I do not blame you! I think it is the kind of thing people do need rests from. I am already taking one too! At least a week or so....maybe more. It is really a sometimes nerve-wreaking, frustrating, and scary thing....and sometimes all of the above. Have a good rest...I will be resting with you!

I frequently hide my profile and take breaks. Usually for a month or so. It's the only way I can keep my sanity!
