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

xp - at least it would probably deter guys who want kids.

wait, there are guys who want kids?

I read somewhere that bowling actually was the perfect activity for a first date... not as much interaction as going for a coffee or dinner, but not as little as going to watch a movie. Or maybe I made it up?

tza I've been with a couple of guys who desperately wanted kids! (so they were shit out of luck with me). It is interesting how few guy actively want kids though: I run with the theory many men just let it happen.

I want kids eventually

eventually

the cunning escape clause

"why don't girls like me with all my lovable flaws PS i just rudely brushed off a girl for having a flaw"

This is why I cannot be bothered with online dating, TBH.

you gotta kiss a lot of frogs loraxes to find your prince captain

My captain, he is looking for me. High and low. On the seven seas.

But I've given up looking for him, and am sticking to wasting my time on twitter.

and there is usually beer!

That's what he said! Hey, I was convinced.

I think I might turn IMs off, people are annoying me.

Wait so did you meet up with him?!

No no, it's going to be a while. I'm actually kind of too busy til after Thanksgiving, which I know sounds crazy.

Oooooooohhhhhhhh. The way you put it yesterday I thought you meant he wanted to go out last night!

This website works btw.

you said it bro

guess who's back

back again

Suddenly I have all these emails and I'm leaving down for 5 days! Bad timing. But ok because it gives me time to get psyched up to do this right. Usually I worry to death about whether the guy likes me enough and never think about whether I like him. This time, I will be RUTHLESS and HEARTLESS and cut them down like stalks of grain instead of trying to win their approval. That sounds like a good plan, right?

Whoo go Laurel! You will have too many options not to anyway ;)

Fine line. Trying to be interested in anyone besides the ex because, uh, there's a reason he's "ex," but only his type really appeals. Except, y'know...better.

Yeah, it's hard to know when you're maybe interested vs. giving someone a chance vs. leading them on, too...I guess that's the point of actual dates, you figure this out, but sometimes it's just more trouble than fun.

I will summon my inner heartless bitch as soon as I get back from the left coast.

i signed up 4 this over the wkend. eep!
first convo i had w/ someone was abt jodorowsky ! tho, im a little worried that she has no picture

er...ask for email picture? seems a bit awkward but i think it's fair given that it's not just a friends-making site....

am currently attempting to meet people by spending more time at the grad student bar. so far working socially but not romantically, but i figure a) the more friends i have the more friends-of-friends i can meet, and b) the fact that two friends i go with frequently are really hot does NOT HELP.

Hm well, yes to the "socially" part. Plus, let's face it, while we wd all like to find twoo wuv, ultimately the most stable thing you got is the friends that think you're rad. Cold comfort when you're going home alone and everyone else is paired off, I guess, but more lasting.

and at least half my friends are in long-distance relationships so they're lonely and want to hang out more too. too bad for them, lucky for me.

yea i guess i will if we keep talkin...im ok w/ just a friendly vibe for now

i need more ppl who will go out 2 bars w/ me, preferrably not late on wknights tho

Late on weeknights is the best time to go out! Happy hour is a douchebag blue-light special almost everywhere and weekends are too busy. But I understand it's not rly convenient if you have a long trip home on a Tuesday.

Definitely but it's hard to get up in the morning when you're out late on weeknights!

I am going to maybe sign up now, now that I have no interest in this "twoo wuv" that Laurel mentions

Ah, but how wuv can strike when you're just there to test the waters...

My own equivalent of Pato's girl's "it's like we've already been on 20 dates" line was "It's like beginning a relationship halfway through a relationship", which was somewhat lovely to hear. All I need now is for sic to turn up and observe that as we'd only known each other IRL for less than 5 hours before we were hooked up, I'd be out on my arse by dawn.

(May I stress that over 350 often lengthy and of course exuberantly-written emails were exchanged over a period of 3-4 months prior to meeting up)

guess who's back

back again

i signed up for this yesterday. :S

found my future wife yall

LOL

Re-launched self with new pictures, slightly more text and zero enthusiasm. Sloooow so far.

berkeley phd student messages me about whether i know David Wojnarowicz's band, 3 Teens Kill 4. hmmm.

also, yeah, i just relaunched myself on this site, mostly because i am tired of going out and seeing all the same old queens and queers hanging around.

lol ok this works UP TO A POINT

kbp, you may be banned, but you won this one. 'mon the west indies.

he's unbanned btw.

i am possibly developing interest in people i have met in real life, whoa, that is not normal! the question is at what point do i become interested enough to actually DO something about it, which would probably be painless enough, i'm just indecisive.

is there some activity you would like to engage in with these people?

too many girls on this have chuck palahniuk listed as a fav

how many have chuck listed vs. haruki mirakami (sp?) ?

Hey now, ain't nothing wrong with Haruki Murakami.

20:1 at least

yea i dont mind murakami from what ive read

i'm just saying both are popular.

in america

Yeah but not in a way that is really comparable imo.

it's just harder for me to ignore chuck p being listed than the xmillion who list twilight/harry potter...idk maybe it's irrational

all the ones you mentioned are gross
