It doesn't matter if someone finds you attractive on here, nothing ever happens. To be honest, I wouldn't be that flattered if someone liked me on here, it wouldn't mean much if they hadn't actually met you. Know what I mean?

I do know what you mean. I am on here seeking Christian fellowship because I do not know that many Christians in RL. I can see getting to know someone and having somewhat meaningful interaction with that person in a setting like this, but as far as falling in love and actually meeting your future spouse, the odds are very slim. I'm not saying that it can't and does not happen, because I know that it does. It's just very improbable. On the flip side, it's nice to meet and interact with cool people (even if virtually) that share similar values and beliefs.

I seem to have failed to communicate that this is a game. A joke. A façade. Nothing more than a way to spend time getting to know each other and network socially. A chance to have fun. An activity based around superfluous enjoyment.

In short... It's not serious. just trying to have some fun.

Oh, I know it was a joke. I just guess that I am being a party pooper.

Wrong ...

Imperial Phantom & Beautiful Fireball - married
Bvwsmaker & Fwmcathy - married
Alfrodull (sp?) and Teufelhund (sp?) - married
Kirk and I - engaged
Guacamolly and Justaguynamedrob - engaged
Intricatic & LittleTigress - together 3 years I think?
Beauty4ashes & her b/f (I can't spell his name) - they've been together a long time too
Sonicboom & Marycita - they've been together a good while I think

These are some other people I don't know but last I heard...

Weasel & Bunnymedic - They were engaged, probably married now
MNJohn & Prayerlady - They were engaged, probably married now
TransformedbyGrace & Seattle Rain - Married
MMXII & davidklewis - Married
Moloku & Zimfan - Married

That's why people meet.

I like threads like these. If I hadn't posted in one like this I probably wouldn't be getting married.

Sorry for pooing on your party pooping :p :sorry:

Well let's be fair. Becky does make a point. 13/14 including you and Luther couples out of how many other interests that never go anywhere? I'd make a strong bet, that even with those matchups that may be the extreme minority. I don't think this proves Becky's point as false when this is just the minority...do you think it does?

Well that is a good point. However, sometimes it does go somewhere, and she said it never does, which I being the little butt that I am just had to point out was incorrect. :sorry: :holy:

But seriously, most relationships -online or off- don't go anywhere. My last six didn't. Or for that matter, most crushes and dates don't go anywhere, either. I don't even know how many crushes I've had or dates I've been on in my lifetime that didn't go anywhere. Does that make crushes, dating, and relationships pointless things that shouldn't be bothered with? I don't think so because you only need one to go somewhere. What will really and truly be sure to never go anywhere is not bothering with any of it.

Fair as well :). My dating life is about the same whether it be meeting them in real life or on the internet...as of now, nadda, and high probability rate of failing :p :) :D

I'm glad you posted, Melissa. For whatever that is worth. *shrug*


It may not be true for most people here, but it is true for a select few. And those are stories that deserve to be heard, as well. You have a point about real-life interactions. :thumbsup:

Oh yeah, I shouldn't have put never. I didn't actually realise till just now that I did use that word. I will go and edit. I didn't mean to say that there is 0% chance just that its rare.

Jerimi will probably prefer that we stop talking about this subject now so PM me if you must. :)

Haha, this thread makes me giggle! I think it would be funny.

Except I would have a very strong urge to be silly if I wrote a blub promoting myself. "Spends evenings lurking in the shadows of Sharn, staff hidden beneath her cloak, hood concealing her eyes. Guards other members of her adventuring clan while they rest; does not actually need to sleep herself, as she is an Eladrin. Fun at parties, has a bag of tricks, and can dance all night long!" Or something.

(No one will actually get that, I bet.)

Seriously, if we were all so darn desirable and dateable, we wouldn't be here posting as Singles.

I guess.

lulz

it's true for me. haha.

I’d throw my hat in the ring, although the dates might not be that fun… for you! For example:

-We could go to the gym and you could watch me lift weights or play pick-up.

-We could go shopping and you could let me know how the clothes look.

-Watch Stargate SG1 or Atlantis.
