Hated By Some 10K Club Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 13,603 Somewhere vanilla	Here's a dating issue: in this day and age how blind should a blind date really be? I mean can I Google somebody to see if they are on the net? Can I request a pic?

If so.. wouldn't ya just ask that person for their pic..etc.. before meeting them.. how else would you know your meeting the right "blind" date... LOL.. Some people don't give the best description of themselves...so it might be hard to just spot them out of a group of people. _________________________ She who dies with the most shoes WINS!

I asked for a pic but she brought in one that obscured her face; said it was only fair since she didn't see one of me. I will find out soon enough (tomorrow) but I was more interested in how bad people thought my "independent research" was.

I am bad at bars because I am shy and because... well other reasons. Also, I am too shy to approach girls. In school I had a comfort zone because I could get to know people and this cleared much of my shyness up.

And is it possible to search someone UNLESS they have put their info out on a site that is accessable to any user? I might be wrong..but I'm thinking you'll get no where. _________________________ She who dies with the most shoes WINS!

I don't do bar scenes either.. my thoughts.. if ya find them in a bar.. you'll lose them in the bar... LOL.. Just smile..and make small talk with her until you find something ya have in common. If the "mutal" friend is going.. maybe they'll help break the ice. Heck...I probably shouldn't be given advice.. since I'm still single myself. _________________________ She who dies with the most shoes WINS!

As much as I would like to get busy, I am not that kind of guy and I don't know how to really pursue for limited purposes... and my third nipple.

Hope all is well. _________________________ I was wondering if you would like to join me in my quarters this night... for some toast.

AngelinaLM Diamond Poster Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 1,655 Boise, ID	Okay so I just got off the phone with Dad. Mom's surgeon said that what they removed showed NO signs of cancer. But there were tests that came back iffy, but at this point it's looking good. We'll know something by next week after the Pathologist does their thing. Thanks for the support EVERYONE!!! _________________________ I was wondering if you would like to join me in my quarters this night... for some toast.

jaenelle Member Joined: Sep 2005 Posts: 50 Kansas	I met my husband online and I know lots of other people that have met their SO's online. Granted, I was on various Internet personals sites for 5+ years before meeting my husband, but it eventually worked. Had to weed through lots of jerks first though. _________________________ -- Kati (President)
