Internet Dating:

Meeting the Parents:

Now, for some fun questions to kick off tonight’s thread!

1. Have you been on a date with someone you met on the Internet?
2. Did the date go well? Did a relationship result?
3. Did you meet them on a dating site or elsewhere? Was it totally by accident or chance?
4. Do you have a funny, gross, scary, or otherwise entertaining internet dating story to share? Either one that happened to you, or someone you know.
5. Any funny or interesting “meeting the parents” stories?
6. Has meeting the parents ever caused a breakup?
7. And, finally, have you ever set up a “backup” scenario to get out of a potentially bad date?

Have we fallen so low that we are now discussing household cleaners?

*sigh*


I want to go back to the pool parties!

There was a recent report that over half of the guys on match.com were married. It followed up that with cellphones and e-mail, it's become incredibly easy to cheat.

It was a pleasant report.

One Bloody Mary coming on up!

My usually low-pressure job(m-thurs) was NOT so good this week. I told you all that the bosses wife was miffed with me last week, after the Zarquai incident, and the fact that I defended Bush, the war, our military, and did not have and "open mind" to things like gay marriage and abortion.

Well that carried through to this week.

Me and her did NOT have a lot to say to each other this week. Usually, she is quite nice to me, to the point of too nice.

Not this week. It has been very tense between us.

[Hoodlum91]

Everyone send me hugs and kisses...I just slammed my finger in a drawer. I'm bleeding all over my keyboard!

I don't think I should do any more housework tonight. It hurts too much!

Something similar happened between me and my primary co-worker around the last election. It got to the point where we were hardly speaking. But since we work in the same office, we had to agree to disagree, and pretty much avoid talking controversial politics. Now we get along fine again.

[DollyCali]

yum.. thank you! How is your weather? we have had a couple weeks of heavyly 60s/70s & today was in mid 80s & tomorrow 90s.

I mowed the entire yard today.. BIG JOB.. lotsa of realestate here to mow. HOT!

[DollyCali]

I agree ... NO ONE should be doing housework on a Friday night anyway (unless they are expecting company)

*wink*

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

Lucky me, I spotted that thread earlier in the day, while at work, on the T1!!

[DollyCali]

Too bad that tension exists now. It may get better but you are the one who will be walking on egg shells. Maybe this is a signal to be looking for other opportunities..

any chance you can start working on your own?

[DollyCali]

yes, lots of pix. do you have dialup at home?
