Seriously???

Hey y'all!
Ok, I'm cutting to the chase. I "met" this guy through Yahoo! Personals just the other day. After exchanging messages for a few days, I invited him to IM me, so that we could converse in real time. So, I give him my Yahoo! ID, and now I'm able to IM him. Since I can see his profile, I checked it out....I'm not sure if any of you are familiar with what I'm talking about. Anyway, one of his "cool links" (websites he frequents, I guess) is called "Online Booty Call"! I was like WTF!!! And I don't even swear!! Ohmigoodness! Now, don't get me wrong; I'm not so naive as to think that people don't do this kind of thing, and I don't mean to offend any of you if you've done it. I'm not into that kind of thing....and I'd be turned off by someone who is. So, should I even bother to IM him? He may not be into it anymore. I can't question him about it because it's none of my business....what do y'all think??

Oh, I would definitely "next" him...unless you're just looking for a fling, which I'm assuming you're not.

If it makes you uncomfortable, I'd say move on right away. Go with your gut girl!

I'm not at all interested in a fling! I am disappointed. He seems like a cool guy from his profile (of course, he could be a liar). He's a teacher, he volunteers, is active in his church....and he likes online booty calls!! Which one of these doesn't belong?? LOL! Oh well....

Thanks for your reply.

Hmm, that does seem like a disconnect. Is there any chance that it's a joke site, or that he just thinks it's hilarious and ridiculous that people would actually *do* something like that? I suppose you could ask, "I just have to ask...why does a nice church-going guy like you have onlinebootycall.com (or whatever the URL is) listed as a favorite website?" and see what he says.

Well,
The link is a valid one; it goes directly to a site called "online bootycall", and it is what it says, a site for people who are looking to "hook up", with no strings attached. Their motto is "finding the 'pieces' without the puzzle." There are even commandments like: "Thou shouldest never ask "can we see each other from now on?" and "Thou shalt get out before the sun rises". Is that insane or what??
Anyway, I'm a bit too weirded out to even ask him about it....

Well if it were me..I would kinda make a joke about it and ask him. Like what is this "online booty call" link all about? If he has it linked to his profile it is up for questioning....at least in my mind anyway! I wouldn't necessarily NEXT him yet, but would definitely be inquiring about the site....

I checked the www.onlinebootcall.com and found it to be a metasite for dating sites, i.e. a website that has link to most of the dating sites like Match.com and Singles.net. Now www.onlinebootYcall.com (with a "Y" at the end) is more of a no-strings-attached site.

You or he may have misread/mistyped it.
