You lot all seem to at least get bites/actual meetings. I'm having zero luck.
fwiw hardly anyone msgs me lately (there was a short burst of activity when i changed cities, and i was actively on the site pretty frequently), but i also haven't really been on the site in awhile

Just change little things in your profile often, upload new photos — I notice I get a lot of visitors after I do that.

Yeah I am actually considering killing my profile and starting a new one, doing all the questions again etc. I think my username isnt helping me (calling myself "trayceee" was a joke in 2003 and I cant change the fuckin thing).
I'd be curious to see if my ex bf/housemate N still comes up as my #1-2 match if i redid everything.

Oh fwiw I get a lot of *visitors* - and even the occasional message - but they are 99% from men over 45 who are in no remote way shape or form my type. Middle aged (possibly divorced) accountants just arent my thing.

Nor are overwreight pervo polyamorist roleplayers ugh.
Thinking of creating an okcupid profile(previously had one, never really populated it, never did anything other than snoop around)
Can never come up with an account name, actually thought of "ex lion tamer", realized that it's the non-punned version of Trayce's current ilx name.
But it's still kind of a funny, because I have been mauled by exes, right?

Hahah thats kind of why I picked ex loin tamer, chortle chortle!

...get coat etc
I'd go on a date with you mh!
― Ex Loin Tamer (Trayce), Tuesday, 11 January 2011 03:09 (thirteen years ago) link
I'm not lacking for the possibility of ~dates~ per se, just kind of wondering what sort of local possibilities there are I had not considered. Okcupid-using possibilities.
― chev rivera (mh), Tuesday, 11 January 2011 04:10 (thirteen years ago) link
Oh cripes, I wasnt implying you need dates, I was just being a perv ;)

― ullr saves (gbx), Tuesday, 11 January 2011 04:32 (thirteen years ago) link
I would have no idea what kind of clever username to think up :(
Also, I have NFI what I answered for the bulk of the q'ns, it was 6 years ago, so re-doing them would be a wise idea.

so i went out for more drinks with my okc date on friday, it went well again so now we're going to the pictures on wednesday. :)
realised she looks a bit like freaks and geeks era linda cardellini, which is nice.

Is there anything better than reading some bros attempt to mess with a "Crazy Cougar" on ok cupid, see their first couple of lol exchanges, and then watch as the dude has to knock off his half-ironic "let's see if I can humiliate this hot broad" flirtations because:
gah, stuff got personal, she knows a friend of mine from my previous job that I had listed on my page. gonna have a civilized convo now

Maybe I'll get onto OKC and humiliate some fat internet nerds, shall I? That'd be good for a laugh.
i had an okc date last week, went well, got really drunk and had a little street kiss at the end. she's in india for 3 weeks but prob will see her when she gets back.

PS sorry if I sounded uneccesarily harsh there. I just loathe the idea that there are guys on dating sites deliberately baiting people they dont even like. Its so childish. :/
― Stargazey Pi (Trayce), Sunday, 16 January 2011 22:27 (thirteen years ago) link
the people on this site all seem to want ppl out of their league. i message dudes who are out of my league who never respond and total freaks message me because i am out of their league, and i never response. no one gets laid as a result. its fucking bullshit, margaret.

didn't work out with my OKC girl, got a "lets just be friends" text after the third date. not that bothered, there's wasn't really much of a spark, tbh. and i have a date with a girl i met on a night out next week anyway. strarted talking to somebody else on the site, but she lives 87 miles away... she sends me pix of herself in different outfits (nothing too racy) and asks my opinion, lol.

― acoleuthic, Saturday, 29 January 2011 19:40 (thirteen years ago) link
haha i mean the thing is
my strategy basically is when i'm 'on okc' i'll message a bunch of girls at once, 5-6, assuming a 10-20% reply avg. they're all genuine messages--my perpetually single friend up here is like 'what do you say to them??' and i'm like 'dude i just read the profile and if i think i have something interesting to say about the contents i say it'--so if i get a reply it's usually substantial, and after last week's round of messaging i got like 6 replies, so it feels like a waste not to make plans to at least meet!
― HOOS the master?? STEEN NUFF (BIG HOOS aka the steendriver), Saturday, 29 January 2011 19:43 (thirteen years ago) link
Hoos did just move to a new city so if even if nothing comes of all these get togethers romantically speaking, at least it's a good way to meet new ppl imo. Also I admire his drive and persistence. I've always hated this sort of thing.
― Sheenastia Easton (ENBB), Saturday, 29 January 2011 19:48 (thirteen years ago) link
playing the numbers haha, well it can work! more likely than not you'll know from the profile when it's someone you'll really click with thermonuclear stylee but if these girls all have interesting shit you can engage with I don't see why not give them all some irl company. the only misgiving I have is that with 6 on the agenda, it'll be easier to concentrate on the ones that come later (unless you had a stellar encounter first up, in which case go animal)
you did the right thing arranging to meet quickly though. my only tip is to be a teeeeny bit more discerning before messaging - in order to avoid a potential emotional pile-up like this, message 1 or 2 a week. there's always time.
― acoleuthic, Saturday, 29 January 2011 19:50 (thirteen years ago) link
Going out with one person is stressful enough for me. Doing it with five different people in one week would make me a wreck.
