So, if you meet some really interesting potentially romantic interest here, how do you like to get to know them?
By typing, typing, typing?
By chatting , chatting, chatting.?
By meeting in person?
By talking on the telephone?
Just wondering.

Pat..you have a classic scammer on your hands. Cultivate suspicion, because you ARE vulnerable.

ANYONE who raises so much objection over a very simple thing is hiding something important.

If the person you mentioned is from MM , contact Brittany and ask her to run a location check on his computer.
There are ways you can do it yourself but I don't know how.

That can't be it, I have at least 1 banana everyday!  LOL


Drink Gatoraide or TONS of water... A deficiency in the electrolytes & potassium is a typical cause of leg cramps/charlie horses.   Sometimes milk will help them too!
I want to be a member too!!!  I think I'm the biggest dufus here, personally!!!!  LOL!!!!

Quoting Arizona53

You gotta stop talking about charley horses, I've had 2 in the last 2 days since you mentioned it. I'd rather be having my kind of Toe Curls.....LMAO! 


LOL Arizona!....I am so sorry...really I am, but I'm kind of sorry that I'm smiling right now. Isn't it crazy about those charley horses? I think it's because we don't eat enough bananas...No PUN intended....I'm serious. Really....I've heard that.

Can I be in the dufus club too?
I make it my job to be a member of all the best exclusive clubs.
Or are you limiting the membership to women only?
Sounds like fun..........
 


Well of course you can be a member...it's not just for 'us girls'...but you really have to pull a blunder or two to qualify.....sooooo? Name your blunder, mister....:-) Our club is indeed exclusive, but since this is your blog and it's been such a fun blog, we might let you in just cause you asked. I think Pat would agree.

ROFLMAO!  Now there's an abbreviation I haven't used in awhile. I didn't even know where I was...so I'm behind too Pat. I had forgotten what I said! So we are two in that 'old lady dufus' club. Sometimes I sit here with my glass of chard / cab and just say/type anything my mind thinks about. To me when I read about Arizona's toe curling...charley horses is 'exactly' what came to mind. Does that make me un-sexy?  Crap......I think it does.

Quoting Curious2078

Okay; scrolled through the entire blog; don't find a post from NiceGuyLooking.  I've been away too long...got my blogs confused....

As for this one...Everyone pretty much agrees that you have to have a face to face meeting to know if there's chemistry; if anything could possibly develop. 

How about this one:  I've spent 5 weeks emailing back and forth with a very, very bright man, very, very witty man, excellent education, very cultured and yet very down to earth [so the emails indicate] but when I gave him my Skype phone number, he went ballistic with reams and reams of emails...reasons why he can't trust Skype.  Okay....here's my landline, which we will have problems with due to static, but here's how we work around that....  He ignored that part...the landline phone part...and he continues to send me reams of info about why Skype, even if he calls my Skype number from his landline, will compromise what's on his computer.

I'm not sure any of this actually addresses the issue at hand.  Truthfully....I think I've gone off point....My apologies, Brian.  I'm afraid that I'm a bit consumed by this problem of mine at the moment, and not, therefore, looking at the big picture your blog addresses.

However.....getting back to the Blog point....yeah, you've got to go through the stages.  All of them.  Email, phone, meeting in person.  And I tend to draw the email stage out to as far as I can get it.  And then....as with the man I'm dealing with now, he seems to want to "escape" the phone conversation and just meet.  So....I am very wary.  Why, I ask myself, do you want to avoid the phone conversations?  One friend suggested that he might have a serious lisp or other speaking problem....  

Either way....you've got to go with your instincts.  All of us on here are sophisticated enough, by now, to know when our guts are telling us something is "WRONG."  Believe in your own instincts.  Go with them.  

I'm not sure that actually addresses the point of this blog of Brian's--but, at the moment, this is all I have to offer.  That, and, as "Counselor" keeps reminding us---BE SAFE!!!!!!!

BE SAFE is the basic watchword.  BE SAFE is the most important thing/advice/notion/idea you can--need to--go with.  

Sorry if this wasn't very smart or illuminating, but it's all I have to say today.

Pat 



Pat....you're always illuminating and interesting.
For me I'm going straight to the nude beach for the first meeting.
That should be simple enough.
No reams of emails.....
Love
Brian

Quoting Tinkerbelle

for me im a lover of the written word. I used to love.... when they were fashionable and before e mails, to recieve letters. You can tell so much about a person by the way they write, and i do love the dialogue. Then next on the list is a meet. Im very touchy feely , i suppose tactile you could say. I tend to talk and touch. Its a necessary thing for me and you cant beat it. I can tell by the first touch [ and im not talking about sex] whether the man is for me.


Another lover of old-fashioned letters????  I thought I was the only one.  An utter dinosaur.  So good to know there's at least one other human being out there who loves letters..... 

Weren't they great????  Written words that took so much more effort to compose than these emails/blogs do?  You had to actually THINK  about what you were saying...and be very sure you meant what you were saying.  No "hit send," and be done with it.  You had to look at the letter you were sending for several days afterwards....and be very sure your true heart-felt feelings were in it....  No mistakes.  Oh, yes, how much I miss old-fashioned letters.

Boy, am I glad to hear that someone else other than me finds chat time-consuming.  For me, emails are actually quicker, and far more efficient.  The chat thing--I wind up talking over whomever I'm talking to....trying to rush to get my note in....Kind of a big pain...  But then, again, I'm getting OLD!!!!!  Hell, I still remember dial telephones--when you had to ask the operator to connect you with the number you wanted.  All I used to have to say was "I want to talk to my Mommy"...and she knew!!!!! 

Oh--I didn't quote--this is in response to ConyersGuy's note about finding chat too time-consuming.

Toe curling doesn't start until the golf is over and the chemistry is properly addressed....LOL! 
Theo, I know about those ones, they are awful....but they are not the ones I like. If you read my profile and don't get it just e-mail me.....LOL!


Where's Theo?  I can't find her here?  What did that lovely lady have to say???  Oh, I'm so lost.....

That one was great, hilarious. I think he was working with George's father on that.
A year or so ago I dated a woman with "man hands". Remember that episode?
