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

oh also, what exactly is an abraham lincoln obsessive? sounds like more than a mere history buff...

He wears beards and stovepipe hats in bed?

Anyway, no time to wallow as I have just been contacted on JDate by an Abraham Lincoln obsessive.

I'm going to start using this as an all-purpose expression.

The most important influence in his life has always been Abraham Lincoln, and he thinks that while he will never accomplish all that he did – [here he notes that this was saving the nation and abolishing slavery] - he has always tried to govern his own life [here he gives details of in what ways] through a prism of thinking "what would Lincoln have done" (WWLD)

I did not add the WWLD myself.

got chatting with a 97% match who it turns out lives just down the road from me

loool lincoln dude

if this romance proceeds we will require a transcript of his GAAAHHtysberg address for our archives.

ahahahaha

i always know I got the GAHHHHHH when I get turned on when they hold my hand

its only happened a couple of times

lol "the GAHHHHH"
i have my 2nd ever okcupid date tonight - it involves drinking so i think everything will be ok

get him sloppy drunk, roll him for pocket change, and shove him on a bus

IMing someone right now, though I haven't ruled out the possibility that she may be one of those charismatic chat bots.

lol someone link to CaptainLorax's posts about finding an attractive woman who just moved to his town on OKC

Breanne Duren- Daydreams (Adam Young Remix) Lyrics HD

so this is probably a good week for new profiles

good call

just sayin' there's at least new one out there ;)

i like answering these stupid questions but i think that might be about it

Every time I log in and see no one has looked at my profile in days, nor do I have any messages, I think the same thing: "Well, good to know I am still irresistible to the opposite sex!"

I have far better luck irl

I'm even on the verge of removing my bookmark from this thread. Close to full-scale abandonment.

I haven't logged into this site in weeks if not more than a month, I never updated my profile, and a friend of a friend (who my friend actually kind of dated) has sent me a message that I believe is a date proposition. I am not really interested in her romantically so I uh, just haven't logged into the site to avoid confronting this. Oddly, I have talked to her on other online communication and it hasn't been mentioned.

Dating someone I met on OKCupid for 7 weeks now

6 days in, and I haven't met up with anyone yet, but I at least have some back and forth going with 2 people. Both of them messaged me first, I kind of feel like I'm not doing something right, because I haven't gotten any responses from my unsolicited messages.

Eh, thats how it goes basically. The hit rate is 90% against favor, I found. Maybe its easier if you look really hot or somethign I dunno. Ppl claim women get inundated on OKC but I never did.

That's kind of what I thought, it's not like i'm sending creepy messages or anything but they are probably getting lost in the noise. I am realizing how important timing is though, Sunday someone deleted her profile while I was typing her the initial "Hi!" message.

a friend of a friend (who my friend actually kind of dated) has sent me a message that I believe is a date proposition. I am not really interested in her romantically so I uh, just haven't logged into the site to avoid confronting this. Oddly, I have talked to her on other online communication and it hasn't been mentioned.

dude maybe her message was just like "lol found you"

nah I saw the first few lines

I think I'm having a date on Sunday! Confirmation TBC. Kind of excited tbh!

I disabled my account pending future revision and possible action

That's great Laurel! Be excited!

I need to know the secret of not getting drunk and making out with dates, tbh. Feel like as a grown-up woman, I should be better at this by now.

^^ I am horrible at this too fwiw. The not making out, not being a grown-up woman.

I never know when to pull the plug, is my problem. Like if I'm having fun, talking & being talked to & flirting, then I'll just want to stay out forever, and the drinking keeps happening, and I do NOT have the knack of the two-drink date and leaving while I'm still ahead.

I kind of can't say no to the attention/tension, however superficial it is.

I have this dorky schoolboy thing where if I ended up seated next to a date at some point I end up kind of sitting close and kind of "accidentally" touching her hand until pretty soon we're kind of holding hands?

Seems even dorkier typing it, but this just seems to be a thing I do, especially if drinking

Yeah, no, I totally do that. Also smoking outside so easily turns into standing closer and closer together.

I guess judging just by the contents of my posts to this thread, I could stop drinking and smoking...but seriously now.

good luck w/the date! but out of curiosity, why the ban on making out? isn't that part of the fun?

I don't know! I should just Do Whatever I Want and own it. But I can't help feeling like the making out in and of itself seems like a super-fun thing that I'll want to repeat, which has probably led to more second and third dates and then they become "relationships" in my life when it should have just been...making out.

So probably it would be better if I learned to cut that off before the relationship part, but historically I never have.

^^ I do this, too. I am pretty much either the "I think that was a date I went on, and we hung out a few times" or "I was in a six month relationship" guy. Really could use a happy medium. Or more variety.

yay laurel!

i am pro drinking and making out, obvs.

my new okc crush plays in a gamelan ensemble among other things! but we don't have any plans to hang out yet despite exchanging 50+ multi-paragraph messages AND he is only looking for "new friends" :/

congrats laurel! I was supposed to have a date today but it fell through and now I'm going to be on the road until the end of the month. ehh.

that's a lot of messages bg!

have date tmr, and the lazy part of me realllly wants to cancel b/c of how much of a pain the 7 train service change is...

out with people off of okcupid sunday, monday, tuesday, thursday and tonight and tomorrow and sunday and maybe tonight's again on monday.

whoa
i'm both impressed and freaked out, but the latter only because i would never ever be able to do that - too many people, too much small talk, would make me want to stay inside and read for a week

i have been dating the same guy for like 2 months now! approaching relationship status... we shall see. i only feel slightly weird abt it because i didn't get the chance to date a bunch of other people, which is what i thought wld happen, but i know that's kind of silly.

I just pissed someone off by email, he told me, "This conversation is over." Because I questioned why his desired age range, which only went up to 4 years younger than him. He said it was because he was used to dating shorter women(!!!!), and then blamed someone his age who scarred him by wanting to get married and have children.

Yeah, gotta watch out for that growth spurt between ages 36 and 40.

younger -> shorter

panicked language issue, weird freudian slip, or admission of guilt? you be the judge!

we shall call him "shorteyes"

oh man, I was talking to a friend about how I hadn't really dated a woman taller than me before:

"I don't know, I'm not good at approaching women anyway. How would I approach a taller woman?"

Her: "You could probably sneak up behind her if she's taller"

I just pissed someone off also. He seemed interesting but wrote a somewhat passive-aggressive email suggesting a date. I thought I'd 'give him a go for various reasons but gently teased him about the message style. He told me he didn't expect me to be so business-like' in my response. Then I suggested a time and day, and he disappeared.

Shorter! Classic.
