Yeah, don't you hate weirdos who badger you? Oh, wait...

Point taken. I don't think I come across as badgering -- something might get lost in translation here -- but it's definitely something I'll be cautious of in future dialogues.

I've got two tentative dates for next week. Let's see if I can manage to **** these up too.

wish i could pull this off... i love troll-messaging

Took this shot this morning. Clearly not on Pete's level, but should be good enough to improve reply rate.

gas station bathroom should help

also, your hat defies gravity

shorts a little small

lol is that a public restroom or what

Please do not put that one up haha

Lol bathroom at my gym. Point taken, ill try to get my ass to the beach

mets fan w braves hat?


a toilet should never appear in a profile pic

I wear my hats for fashion, they have nothing to do with team alliegience. And agreed

amazin,

No offense, cuz you're obv in decent shape, but you are imo NOT in the exception group that Pete is in. A shirtless pic for you could be a positive, but it should be done in some sort of natural shirtless setting like the beach/pool/park/etc.

Hell, even Pete took his picture with a nice background view, not in some random public bathroom.

Where's the glory hole?

This isn't exactly online dating but I'll post it here anyway.

I'm friends on Facebook with this girl who was a year below me in high school. We never ran in the same crowds or anything, and I hung out with her only like once or twice as part of a big group or at a party. Well, she's turned out to be infinitely more attractive than in high school, and, based on her fb persona anyway, really quirky and awesome. She goes to a different school than I do, but I'd be super down for connecting with her. Since this isn't an actual online dating site, though, I can't pitch my usual cyber game (which is almost non existent anyway). So what's a non-creepy way to initiate inter-web communication with this girl and escalate it?

Na bathroom is fine, but just make sure to have a deuce floating so they can see you are eating enough fiber and care about your health.

Sitting at sushi bar looking at this middle aged couple on what looks like a first date argue

She is very adamant that 9/11 was a conspiracy and he just walked away

Thought id share


Lol

He even tried to brush it off as agree to disagree but she wasn't having that !

Like all her photos.

Every single one.

That always gets da chic.

That would definitely be a deal-breaker for me.

I had never tried sushi before either. Yesterday, I went on a date to an Asian place, and as part of combo dish I got there were 2 pieces of sushi. I tried it. I hated it. Never taking your advice again.

Where do you live and how old are you that u never tried sushi ?

19 year old from north Arkansas

How can a gay PhD (or MD, can't remember) in Jersey not have tried sushi? Let alone not like it. wtf?

gansta,

You should try sushi at a good sushi place.

You should definitely and only try sushi at a good sushi place.

Should increase your reply rate from chicks who are in to sex offenders.

'Trip report' with some advice/warning. Messaged a girl who some would peg as out of my league, got a response back saying hey I suck at this messaging stuff, let's meet up, I get her phone number, she says the only time she could meet up in the next week was that night, and that she was currently in a bar which is a few blocks from me, we texted a bunch and I vacillated (haven't been feeling great recently) and ended up not going. Pretty sure now we're never going to meet (apparently she's 'unfortunately out of town for a while'). I've had a bunch of success with girls that I've insta met up with, and when I take my time to meet up, we invariably end up not going out in the end.

Cliffs: Be aggro, get the phone number early, arrange a meet up for the next few days, be flirty and make it clear that you're interested on the first date (if you are interested).

Wow, wasn't expecting all that. Well let me answer those posts all at once. I'm 27, from NJ, have an MD. I'm a picky eater and so have avoided sushi on purpose this long, even though I've gone out to sushi places with friends more times than I can count (they always have other dishes I can and am willing to eat).

When I finally tried the sushi, I didn't want to eat the whole thing at once as I wasn't expecting a positive experience. I tried to bite it, but all I got was some of the rice and whatever fish-thing was inside. It was whatever they did to the rice (vinegar? rubbing on the seaweed?) that really turned me off, as well as the general smell of the thing. It was exactly what I expected given all the sushi I've smelled before, so I don't think this place had anything to do with it. Plus, it would be very difficult for me to get over the whole seaweed thing as the thought of eating seaweed disgusts me.

If you knew all the foods I don't like/don't eat, sushi wouldn't be the one that really concerns you. Actually, apparently we've been over this before: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/sh...68&postcount=5
