You Just Met Him. Now What? 5/9/2005
OK ladies, so you met what might be a potential "Mr.
Right" and then find out he's not the one. What
do you do?
<br>
You'll know in less than 5 minutes if you want to continue
to see him. Advise a girlfriend to call you five minutes
after you got there. You look at the phone and ignore it and
say, I'll have to call that person later. Have your
girlfriend call you 10 minutes ...

Let's Have Some Manners! 4/19/2005
I think we all need to treat those interested in us, whether
online or in person, with at least some human dignity. This
means acknowledging the mail we receive unless it is vulgar
or abusive, finishing a date with the frog who was supposed
to be a prince, unless he creeps us out, and being at least
polite and tactful at all times.

If someone online isn't our cup of tea, a ...

Date From Hell 4/6/2005
This is one of my personal experiences and the names have
been removed to protect the not-so-innocent. Seven years
ago, my mother was dying of cancer. My aunt told me that I
needed a new hobby besides taking care of mom and going to
work and sleeping. I decided to do "online dating".
It was one of my first experiences with online dating. I
emailed her a few times and then used one of ...

Honesty Is Worth It 3/10/2005
We all submit the most flattering photographs, but that
is not fair when the time comes to meet in person. Guess it
takes courage to be that real. I study a photograph for personality,
style, taste, because I can pretty well tell whether there
would be chemistry for me.
Another preliminary contact is by phone, because chemistry
takes place audibly, too.
But, most of all, ...

Every One Who Writes Me Deserves My Respect 3/10/2005
I try not to leave anyone feeling "down" just
because we are not a fit. We all are searching for companionship,
with such hope and humility. It has been a sweet venture
for me, for many of you have written complimentary remarks,
that I try to return the favor. Let's all put back into
society good wishes and warmth for having sojourned here.

Why did the ex take it so bad that I rejected her offer of X-Mas

Because I reject, or am rejected, is not a personal judgement...at

so easy to say **no thanks** 12/25/2004
When asked..no thanks is an easy way to get out of a jam.Sometimes
that is all it takes to get out of a relationship also. This
must be done at the very beginning if you feel you dont really
need the hassle of all the questions and the secrets that
seem to appear.Enter into this type of life can only be a
downfall if all the truth is not brought out in the open.

One of the problems we encountered was that he had absolutely
nothing to say. I dealt with the problem, by initiating
conversation whenever I could. I chattered on about this
and that, trying to help him relax. Throughout the meal,
I was not very happy with his table manners or should I say,
lack of them, as he used his ...

So then why so many declines? Does someone have to be slim

Marriage in the Dictionary 7/10/2004
My dictionaries do not mention sex under the definition
of marriage or marry. As a board certified divorce attorney,
I know that non-consumation is not absolute grounds for
annulment i.e. a marriage may still be upheld even if it
is not consumated (no sex). Some married people can't
have sex. While I agree that sex coupled with marriage is
the wiser choice, it is not always possible and ...

A Response to Why some MARRIED people seek companionship here 6/10/2004
I strongly disagree with the reasons for looking outside
the marriage listed in the article, "Why Some MARRIED
People Seek Companionship." I think the person very
eloquently wrote a load of excuses for dishonouring their
marriage vows.

was unable to engage in any sexual activities. I was fairly
