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

because that is all these bisexual monsters care about

god bless em

oh man, on the first (and last) time I ever IM'd someone, total disaster. :(

Sorry Trayce. Unfortunately the bi guy I dated was also an asshole, which I should remember when thinking of bi people.

FWIW many of the str8 dudes I've dated were assholes with issues around infidelity + desires for threesomes so YMMV.

fwiw I have dated women who were kind of jerks and also had infidelity / threesome desire crap

Yeah but were they straight ot bi? The point is when str8 ppl suck at relationships it's accepted that it's bcuz they're assholes. When bi ppl suck at relationships it's evidence that bisexuality is at fault. Which is hypocrisy land.

Yeah, Je55e, you definitely need to concentrate on the 'he was an asshole' part rather than the 'he was bi' part. The two aren't really related.

OK. Laurel and I are meeting at Bemelman's Tuesday night around 7. Who is in? On to Subway after, around 8, 8:30ish.

i'll be there! but, probably, significantly underdressed? i am horrible at dressing up. vp, i have no idea what you look like! wear a red rose?

also i kind of feel like i'm going on a blind date

Mary feels like she's going on a date, full stop. Yesterday she asked me if I had planned something romantical.

um i have a date now

Great!

disabled my account

due to success or frustration?

I'd like it to be success! quickly v intense while not rushing into anything not interested in seeing anyone else at all.

congrats!

I might be done with this site for good. I've had more luck meeting people on Fetlife than this collection of hopeless freaks (present company excluded, obv).

Great, rayuela. Laurel and I will be the two Midwestern looking people. Actually, on the upper east side that descriptor might not go that far. I'll message you my details.

Don't worry about dressing up--its the most laid-back swanky place I've ever been. You can wear whatever you want. Ssshhh, Laurel. You're making me seem like a demanding date.

I just reactivated my account and immediately found 2 guys I like the look of a lot - one of whom I already know from last.fm funnily enough.

I'll try and stem my complete anxiety at not being in the right frame of mind to date anyone and just get on with my life.

loooool, i have a meeting with a contractor tomorrow at 1pm and one of them just sent me a message on okcupid saying that i showed up as one of her quiver matches and she thought she'd send a message in advance to avoid potential awkwardness!

Hahah oh christ, I would be mortified if a workmate showed up in my matches. Never thought about it.

when i put a profile up i came across a workmate after about 3 matches.

not cool.

i think she mightn't maintain her profile now tho. anyway i got the fuck out of dodge post haste.

it also sucks because she's like a 95% match with me and had flirted with me once at a bar after a conference. i'm trying to get out of it right now by going on at length about the most boring work topic i can possibly imagine.

Bless <3

i'm pretty sure this is the only conversation about a Return on Investment study that's currently happening on OKC

What if she's hot for budget analysis? OMG!

get a drink after the meeting imo

or just ask Shakey for some tips on this convo

!! Avoiding awkwardness would have been accomplished by immediately blocking you and never mentioning it! So maybe she's after you.

This is my worst online dating/hookup nightmare. I don't want anyone I know IRL seeing my profile EVER. Last time I had one I locked the friends I could locate before I put up a real picture.

was yr profile racy

Mine? It was on Adam 4 Adam so it was somewhat adult themed. But a non-hookup profile is no less super private for me.

I wouldnt mind from a details-revealed POV but then again I avoid a heck of a lot of the compromising q'ns on OKC (esp about drugs).

The actual information is NBD, it's just someone seeing me operating in a dating context. That's private.

vp, got yr message!

happy VD ilx singles. if anyone wants to come to this party tonight let me know. i made a bunch of cookies and they are really good.

On to Subway after, around 8, 8:30ish.

Is this the Subway Inn on 60th/Lex? I am taking myself to The Miners' Hymns at Film Forum at 6:15, no firm plans after aside from eating.

Morbs! Yes indeedy it is that Subway Inn! We'll be there after 1 or 2 rounds of luxury.

b_g, I wish you were coming with us but I hope your party is cat-tastic and full of delicious things.

i actually have a little okc thing going on tonight! may or may not work out, but it'll beat drinking a bottle of wine by myself while watching c-span2 on mute

Mrb, you should have seen miners hymns with me live at the winter garden. Then we could monopolize your evening.

Zs, kudos, tho drinking a bottle of wine by myself is one of my favorite activities.

Happy Valentine's day, past, present, and non okc users! I'm hoping to clean up on Valentine's from the under-12 set.

Messaging with 2 guys at present, 1 is older than me (omg wtf gasp!), that's just been light TV shw talk so far... the other is a guy I really like the look of but after several enthusiastic exchanges my last one was a reasonably long, detailled ramble about music interests as he expressed a love of music and he's not yet replied. Guys tend to try and play it cool tho, right? God I over worry about this rubbish.

the longer the message the longer it takes to respond ime

Yeaah, I'm hoping thats what it is, like he's taking time to craft up a reply. Ive been home sick today which hasnt helped, nothing to do but stare at the pc and fret.

Hahah I jinxed myself! He just replied.

had a sort of nice date that ended with the realization that yeah, nothing will ever happen, biked home and had a bit of an accident, blood all over the place an unexplainable bandages all over my face for the next 2 weeks

happy valentines day!

fuck this holiday

yikes dude :(

Oh crap Z! Are you ok? :/

Had the best time at the Carlyle/Subway. I highly recommend a date with Laurel and rayuela, with a special guest appearance by Dr. M. Except I drank too much (again). Two (actually four) martinis is more than I can handle. Do I owe anyone money or anything? We forgot to kvetch about okc.

"actually four"

heal up ZS
