Lany Freelove Cassandra Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Thank you for your advice! I only wish I had this knowledge back then. From what he told he isn't just old fashion with the dates, I could really accept just the date or some old fashioned gestures now and then. After that I can’t even remember why I was sad. It was the worst date I have ever had. He told me that a woman shouldn't work but she should stay at home, even if there are no kids, I mean stay at home mom is way different than what he told. He said that a woman must stay at home and take care of the house and of her husband, because if she works she is dangerous! A man should provide everything his significant other needs and so on. If a man like that had told something like those things to my father, who is twice his age, he would had freaked out. It was awful! I don’t even remember how many glasses of wine I had just to be relaxed enough to not pay attention to what he was saying. That is beyond horrible! You are certainly well rid of him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon's Queen Consort Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Wow! Well ateast you weren't pining for him long? Sorry he was an asshole but good you saw the 'real' him fairly soon!It was a month or so. So not too long.What an ass :ack:He was. A cute one tho.That's great ! Now all I have to do is forget that you're blonde somehow and we can go out , Jackie ! :leer: sorry he was an ass . Now I'll go back to lurking you people ...Oh PoAto! You are so kind. :PThat is beyond horrible! You are certainly well rid of himOf course I did! He called me yesterday to go out for a drink. I had the flu.Yup, fuck that shit. It'd be different if he said that's just what he wants for his life; I'd be fine with him saying that because plenty of women want that as well. But to say that's how it should be for everyone? Excuse me, while I get my gut under control after the laugh.He said "A woman must do that and that and so on" and I was like http://s.quickmeme.com/img/1d/1d2faf3a4e184f4fc7dbcfb75e253bc1b78aecd52933f3fdd4d3c8b728db87f0.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm shocked -- SHOCKED, I tell you -- that he's still single... :lmao: Disappointing, of course, but the sooner you found this out, the better for you. Now you know. Good luck going forward/with the next one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MercenaryChef Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 http://www.cnn.com/2014/09/30/tech/mobile/luxytinder-rich/index.html?c=techThought I would share. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littlefingers In The Air Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 I don't know whether to go the fuck that shit route or to go the PC "it's cool because it gives people of certain demographics a way to come together and date" route. Eh, fuck that shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkhangel Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I'm going the 'it's bullshit' route. Only review is from the CEO, who didn't even have the sense to use a fake screen name, and it may have been downloaded as few as ten times? Besides which, I'm not sold on the idea that that many genuinely rich, successful and/or extraordinarily beautiful people are looking for dates on the internet.

Sir Thursday Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 http://www.cnn.com/2014/09/30/tech/mobile/luxytinder-rich/index.html?c=techThought I would share. Sounds like the writer promoting a non-entity, to be honest. Either because he saw it on a random trawl and decided to write a fake-trend piece, or because he knows the creator(s) and was giving them some free publicity. I was looking hard for some indication that this was native-advertising - surprised there wasn't one actually. There are a lot of specialist dating sites around - I seem to recall seeing a lot of adverts for 'Uniform Dating' a while back (for people who work in uniform or love the ones who do, apparently). And of course you have stuff like Christian Mingle as well. I don't think those are necessarily sites worthy of condemnation in and of themselves, but in this particular case I'm not even sure it's worthy of being considered a site at all given the obvious lack of user-base. What is worthy of condemnation is CNN publishing an article like this about such an obvious non-story. ST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinder itself allows you to self-select well enough anyway. If you've got a hardon for people wearing expensive clothes, you can only right swipe well-dressed folks.

They wrote a blurb about a "facebook for successful people" where the founder was offering an "exclusive" social network for the bargain price of $60k per year or something. Just trying to get clicks on shock value, kind of sad that even CNN has abandoned attempts to be a legitimate journalism outfit. But yeah, there already are targeted dating sites. Christian Mingle is rpobably the biggest, but we always get a big kick out of the "blackpeoplemeet.com" and "farmersonly.com" commercials that run on late night tv.

Littlefingers In The Air Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 I'm pretty anti-Christian Mingle even though it got me one of two ex girlfriends I still actually care about. I hate it because it's supposed to be a Christian dating service that doesn't even allow you to send messages without a paid account! How did yours truly get around that to end up dating someone for well over a year? Simple. I googled her Christian Mingle handle and came across her Twitter. Zing.

Arch-MaesterPhilip Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Well; he did ask for a second date and i just told him " I really appreciated you coming all the way to see me and i had a nice time but i just don't see anything romantic happening between us and i wouldn't want to waste your time" does that sound really mean ive never had to say anything like that to anyone before ahh im really anxious.Why are you anxious about being honest? You didn't feel a connection and didn't want to waste his time. I'm sure he'll appreciate the honesty. I know I would if it were me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karaddin Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Chats - If Mr Marine screws you around again please let him go. You deserve better than you are getting from him as well regardless of his reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starkess Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Nora, please go read the Abusive Relationships thread and take notes. You have 4 months to dump this dick before he comes home and starts treating you like crap again. Don't marry him! Agreed with Min!!! Dump him!!! Ha okay, gasoline received! But I ain't dumping him!

TerraPrime Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 I will chime in with a different opinion on Mr. Marine. Good fucks are not difficult to find. Great fucks, on the other hand, are not easy to find. So if Mr. Marine is a great fuck, then keep him and use him whenever he's available. It's not like (1) Chat's idling waiting on him and (2) Chat's sense of self-worth is dependent on Mr. Marine's attention. I see the interaction more like a fan waiting eagerly for his/her favorite band to play a show in town but the band keeps changing the performance date.

Inigima Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Nora is well aware of my opinion of her boyfriend, so I won't belabor the point, but I will point out that if you want to convince her to dump him, the day to do it is probably not the day he sent her a teddy bear and flowers from overseas.

TerraPrime Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Oh, yeah, forgot. This happened to me on a hookup app dedicated to kink: (8 days ago) Him: Hi. (2 hrs later, I saw the message) Me: Hello. What can I do for you? (3 days later) Him: Use me. (5 hrs later, I saw the message) (Went to check his profile - complete blank. No pictures, no descriptions, no stats. Just location, which is 3 hrs away) Me: No. (4 days later) Him: Dude, get real and stop wasting my time. (an hr later, I responded) Me: What the fuck are you on? (3 hrs later) Him: You're just a gook and I don't want you near me anyways. Me: *blocks user* Winners - the internet has them.
