Just when you thought it was safe - OK CUPID PART 3: The Return of the WOO!

I guess... I just take a bajillion pics til one looks ok!

You ideally need someone else to take a photo

Well yes - the other thing about a good photo is that it insinuates that you have at least one friend

It's just unbelievable the number of people who post up a grainy webcam grab of them in a darkened room looking at their monitor.. It's like... really???

"All this could be yours my sweet"

Guy mentioned above seems really awesome and sweet and compatible (and v cute) and already saying "lets meet up on the weekend". Well I'll be.

Just stumbled across the profile of the girl I just hired. Yikes!

seeing someone incredibly nice-seeming tomorrow! and it isn't really a date. well, it sort of is. more of a day out.

LJ I tht you already had some booteh.

Brief relapse into one-night stand idiocy last week partially excused by being the result of a school reunion, actually really like the person I'm seeing later so things will be taken much more slowly

Nice work! :)

I'm kind of a bit ^_^ abt meeting this guy Ive been talking to - the fact he's jumped right into "when can we meet?" after only 3 message back and forths is total KIP awes for me. None of this interweb dancing about.

if you're not talking about meeting within a couple of days/5 emails then chances are you are FAFFING

I guess so! Another OKC chap I talk to I still havent met yet - but its more cause we decided we're happy just chatting as friends and he live sso far outin the burbs it was all a bit inconvenient anyways.

I have been a freak magnet on OkCupid these past few days. The other night, some Tantra guru in Ohio was IMing me doing my numerology chart. He told me that I was "intensely sexual" and that sex was a sacred act for me. LOL. He also wanted to take me out for dinner. I guess he didn't realize that I was in another state? Also, an 18 year old security guard at a casino IMed me and ALSO wanted to take me out for dinner.

I have also been sexually harassed a lot in the past few days. I've had a few nasty IMs; one guy last night asked me if I wanted to be his fuck buddy, and I said: "I'm not really in the mood for that right now - I want a gushy, sappy, pathetic crush." And his response was: "Sounds gay."

everybody who 4/5 stars me is like 200 miles away at least :(

was talking to one local girl, but she stopped messaging me after i said i had no idea what i'd be doing with my life in 10 years. sheesh. she was only 23, as well.

A lot of weirdos and guys looking for booty calls seem to IM me and/or message me. Anytime I message someone legitimately interesting who looks like someone I would actually date, they almost always never answer.

aren't there swinger sites and stuff for ppl who just wanna "toot it and boot it"?

for the love of god turn off IM

they are entertaining me!

oh. well in that case, carry on!

t-bomb

I messaged a girl yesterday! She's a 97% match! We sent each other like 10 long, interesting messages over the course of the day! I like her prose style a lot! She's really pretty! We're going to get coffee sometime this week! Nothing is wrong!

O_o

Awesome!!!

someone being a combination of smart, funny, interesting AND good looking is like... rare.

^

"smart, funny, interesting" somehow ends up =ing good-looking, in my experience

it's like this magic transmogrification

tracer otm

sooooo otm

update

well, the girl I met here 1 month ago and fell madly for...is back in touch, albeit from Spain - but visiting here next month, and wants to see me - innocently enough, I think, but there will be inevitable feelings -

now this of course has thrown my more recent burgeoning thing completely off-whack - I had to tell a really nice and interesting and cute girl only tonight that I had changed my mind and couldn't start anything with my heart so torn. while fully understanding my situation she peaced on me and I do not think she will speak to me any time soon even though we would make excellent friends. this is making me feel kinda shitty. but at least I was upfront.

both were from okcupid. oh you website!

nick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

also yes well done nick I hope her personal life is not thrown into international turmoil w/in 1 week of u 2 inevitably getting it on

The guy I messaged above was a 92% or something match and is terribly cute and replied and we've now been on 2 dates and both have been incredibly sweet and succesful and I am really quite pleased with myself right now.

Thants, OKC!

First date today, got coffee, was absolutely lovely. Damn, she's like, a real person. Got a little bit of nervy "don't fuck this up" business in my stomach, but mostly just stoked.

Was only an hour and a half, so I'm all energetic now. Dating!

Also high fives all around!

High fives n1ck! :D Its invigorating innit :D

Last night I was all "sooo... second dates are kind of awkward arent they lolol what do we do now haha" but it was all ok in the end =) The thunderstorm we got to sit under at a bar really topped off the night, we were going "woooo!" at the lightning like tards, haha. I really really like this boy argh.

niiiiiiiiiiiiiick

Apparently friend of hers that she was having a casual 'convenience' thing with, when he heard she went on a date, was very hurt, so she's gone off to sort that out, no second date. Ugh, bad day.

What a gee dee roller coaster. Dating.

aw shit man

no second date like, at all?

or for now?

so it goes, tough break mister

At all, is the pretty clear implication.

sorry, man. fwiw my one experience with a 97% match/4% enemy, cuet, smart, magic first date, omg we have so much crazy stuff in common etc etc went more or less the same way. back to "uncomplicated/fun/likes me" as top criteria ;-)

sorry dude. as you so aptly put it, "dating!"

as said upthread, I've kinda inflicted something similar on someone this week

think i'm destined to speak to people and either lose interest or see them lose interest, on this site. i sometimes feel it's like a way to make yourself think you're attempting to date...

and also a great way to practice dating

So much for thinking my thing was going well, apparently despite what I thought it wasnt going well for him at all.

Confused, cos there def wasnt any awkward or get-lost body language. V confused. And bummed. Oh well.

have started getting in touch with people in dc, since i'm moving there in a couple weeks.

weird how i keep breaking news on the okcupid thread?

BIG HOOS dc will be delighted to have you--please let us dcilxors know how we can be of assistance in your relocation!

I'm kinda disappointed that I'm leaving this really great girl I met through OKC behind. I was gonna write her this sappy ass "you're really great, I'm gonna miss you, etc etc" thing, but it occurred to me that there'd really be no point. Cause what, I'm gonna stay behind for her? It wasn't that real yet, I just feel like it coulda been.

But I guess she won't be the last.
