I hate when people are so against online dating and say how desperate people are to look for love online. I disagree. 1 out of 5 relationships now start online. And I think it was a great tool for people who are to busy to go out to meet people. Also there are tools to link you with people you are compatible with based on questions. Sure online dating can be dangerous but everything can be dangerous right? I’ve meet a couple of married couples who met online. I actually got curious and signed up for a free dating website called OKcupid.com and met a guy for a hike (which I don’t recommend on the first date, it was my idea) . We ended becoming great friends. I haven’t found love through okcupid but then again I haven’t been on in a while. I want to share a funny story about my recently divorced aunt. She is a successful business woman and signed up for EHarmony and match.com. Funny thing is she had her daughter find guys for her on this website. She went on lots of dates including one memorable one. She went to a restaurant and was supposed to meet this guy at a bar. A guy started talking to her as soon as she walked in and she asked if his name was ( we will call him john) john? He said yes, it is John so my Aunt assumed it was her date. After five minutes of talking to him my aunt decided he was a creep and tried to get away from him by talking to another guy at the bar. The other guy at the bar said he was waiting for his date and it turned out he was the person my Aunt was supposed to meet all along! She had a nice evening but decided he wasn't for her. She went on many more dates after that and met some really nice guys. My aunt is taking a break because she is busy with work, but that does not mean she will give up finding love via the internet. It was a fun new dating my aunt never tried and I’m glad she did. My friends date found the perfect compatible wife from a dating website. I just have this hope. A good tip to internet dating is make sure to always meet in a public place the first couple of times you meet until you feel comfortable. Also( if you cant afford some of the fees for match.com and Eharmony try a free one like okcupid.com or plentyoffish.com. Although I heard plenty of fish is sometimes used as a booty call site”. I f anyone is reading please share any good or bad internet dating stories you have or your opinion.

ReplyDeleteToo long. Didn't read.
ReplyDeleteJesus made the internet so that people could meet and procreate without going to bars and other places that sell Pat Dabney's premium cocaine powder products that have been cut with excessive amounts of deworming agents and the pulverized bones of certain fresh waters fishes..
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great article, honey. When are you coming home to "visit" again? I miss my pretty little pony's face and am craving some canadian bacon.

ReplyDeleteOnline dating only increases your chances of a failed relationship, in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteMy pinning was a huge deal, and happened the night after 10k after everyone left and our kids got permission to stay on the land for a few days and clean up before we left for yellowstone and glacier during the off days between 10k and seattle. Camp was kicking, a few off our kids where in the kitchen getting dinner ready, some kids where getting the fire started, and me and dawn and few others where out on a groundscore mission. This was just after the sun went down, we where walking up to camp (camp goodness sponsered by cookies, that is!!!) when 7-8 of our kids are walking towards me with this distinct look on their face. Now, about my actual pinning... Catch me in the real world sometime, ill tell you over a bowl, but something like that is just to personal to discuss over the internet. Lets just say it was special. I will say this, after i got pinned, dawn gives me this huge kiss and is like "baby you deserved that."
ReplyDeleteAfter i got pinned we all had a huge celebration. It was a special time. We had a huge family dinner, and after dinner a sheet was put in a bottle of orange juice and everyone was ceremonially dropped by the Rev.
hahahaha
ReplyDeletecouldnt agree with you more. doing my hair was not an overnight decision. i grew my hair for a solid year with the goal in mind that in 1 year exactly i would do my hair if i still wanted them. i thought about it that entire year and i still wanted to do it. its something ive loved since i was 12, i know the exact moment in time that i first saw them and fell in love with the freedom of it. tried multiple times over the years and the timing was not right and my head was not in the right place for it. when the time came everyone told me know and i did them anyways. not a day goes by i dont hear some kind of compliment on them and how well they fit who i am as a person. please please please do not get dreads for the point of fitting or 'looking cool'. i know dreads are big in the jamband scene but you will look and feel silly if youre not being you when you get them and take on that journey. my dreads have become my children in a way. they are large part of who i am. i define my hair, my hair does not define me
