Okay...I've called the Late Night DISers, now I'm calling the SINGLE DISers!

[Pin Wizard]

Okay...for the fun of it I did a profile at Match.com...ha! We'll see what happens.

 

[house_of_princesses]

Fill us in on what happens! I'll live vicariously through you!!

Had a nice Monday. Took the 4 dd's to Museum of Science and Industry with my friend and her 2 children. Came home and readied the oldest for Karate. Then spent the evening at a friends and there were 3 of us working on our scrapbooks. I'm new to scrapping, and I'm enjoying it!

Oh I'm so excited for you you have to let me know how it works for you........ Did you submit a picture?

 

[Pin Wizard]

TMQ...yes, I sent a picture. I have to update my profile before they'll post it though. I have to let them know what I'm looking for in someone. That's a toughie!

Vicki...Sounds like a fun time with your daughters! And scrapping! I started doing that a while ago. Recently finished my first scrapbook...Disney! On Thursday night I'll be at a friend's house working on my latest one. She's a Close to My Heart consultant.

I am getting to the point that the only thing I am looking for is someone who is still breathing
No seriously that is soooooo hard to put in words...

ROFLMAO!

You've got me cracking up over here. Been there! As a matter of fact, I have a good friend from high school...male. He wanted to know what I'm looking for in someone. I told him that the guy has to take care of himself and not drop dead on me...literally! Keith died when he was just 38 from a massive heart attack. I think it's easier to list what I don't want than what I do.

Woooooooooooo hooooooooooooooo! I had an e-mail from Match.com, and they're approving my profile the way it is. Should be posted within 24-72 hours. Heh, heh. See if anything happens.

Good for you Pin Wizard!! I hope you at least meet someone you can go out and have fun with - just be careful!!

You're not kidding! I'd just be happy with a couple responses.

This is something I think is actually fun to jump in first for. Although I believe I'm the second to jump in here! Start jumping, ladies!

I'm probably going to be the only single guy replying to this thread. I've been single for years now and it's OK. I've dated a few times, but nothing has come out of it. I've posted on match.com and a few other online personals sites. I usually get e-mails for escort services or porn sites. Otherwise, the woman will e-mail me a few times and then never again, even after I send several "Are you there?" e-mails. I've decided not to try hard looking for someone. The best things come when you're not looking for them, actually.

It does feel nice to be loved and to love someone, but it's also nice to do things on your own that you want to instead of being tied down with a significant other. Still, when it comes, it'll come.

I don't know why I have such a problem. People say I have a great personality and women should be swarming around me. People say I'm good around kids though. In the end, it seems like the married women say that they would marry me if they were single. *sigh*

 

[house_of_princesses]

Barry, Thanks for stepping up to the plate for all the single male DIS'ers! (I know they're out there!)

I agree with you...good things come to those who wait. Perhaps you'll meet that special someone at the Carribean Gardens meet! Good luck!

 

[tmq2766]

Thanks for posting Barry, I know there are more men out there in the same boat as all of us single female DISers. Maybe some day we can arrange a single DISer meet.....

It's good to read your post, Barry. At some point, you'll find the right person. Boy, can I relate to that last line. About 5 years ago I came across a guy online that I went to high school with. He asked me out in high school, but my parents wouldn't let me date for another year. Lately, our conversations have been taking a more interesting turn. But he's married. Last night I asked him if I could clone him! If he were single, I'd definitely marry him!! The old flame has been ignited again!

I almost came close with someone on match.com. She said that she really liked me, but she didn't want a relationship. She also lived in Madison, WI. Hmmm...Madison is pretty close to Six Flags Great America, Wisconsin Dells, and Michigan's Adventure. Cedar Point is a day's trip. Hmmmm...

And hmmm...what if I were to hook up with some of the single women in this thread? Hmmm....

 

[TigerBear]

LOL, Barry! How did you end up communicating with someone so far from you? That was one of my definite criteria, although my man does live in Galveston (which is 50 miles from Houston). I did get a response from a guy in Virginia who was relocating to Houston and a response from a guy in California looking to fly a woman out to meet him. No way! Long distance relationships are too hard. If one just happened that would be one thing - but to search for it?

So anyone else thinking about trying match.com? If things don't work out with my current guy, I know I will jump back into the match.com game. I also tried speed dating twice - and hated it because no one there was my type.

So, Pin Wizard...how is it going?

I’ve been lurking on this thread for a while and thought it was about time I joined in. I’m single, but not really looking right now. Actually, I’ve come to the realization that a terrible curse has been put on me. I seem to be invisible to most single men. (Strangely enough, some married men--and my ex-bf--seem to be immune to the curse, but that’s not gonna happen!) If on the off chance a single guy seems interested in me, the curse strikes again and I’m turned into a blithering idiot. So, it looks like I’m doomed to remain single until I find a way to lift the curse. In the meanwhile, that ‘cat lady’ idea is sounding pretty good….

We met up on match.com. She was in Miami for a few months and then went to get her PhD. at the University of Wisconsin. I still have strong feelings for her, even though she never answers my e-mail.

I'm tempted to tell the story about Cindy, but I'm not sure if I should. It has nothing to do with Cindy B or any other Cindy (I hope!) on the DIS.

 

[TigerBear]

Cindy? Do tell!
