Dating sites

[MissZooropa]

Ok, I confess, I'm registered on one but for me it's just for fun. I'm completly happy being single but I also think it's nice with some appreciation and to meet people.
I haven't visited "my" site for a couple of months (mainly because I got followed by a guy).

On the site you can describe yourself and make a top five make-me-warm-list and one top five make-me-cold-list. #1 on my warm list is U2 and I also mention it in my description.
Today I had gotten a mail that starts with the lyrics to ISHFWILF and then a VERY serious presentation of the guy and then it ends with a PS with more lyrics from U2 and a note that he saw the popmart show and thought that we would have fun if we met.

Even if I would love to meet a guy that love U2 I always get very suspicious when someone starts the conversation with it, just like he's trying to impress me, know what I mean?

I'm just curious about your experience from meeting guys, over the net or IRL and their reaction to you being a huge fan of U2 and how you feel and react if they seem to act liking U2 just to flatter (don't know if it't the right word) you.

I know this has no drool factor at all, sorry.....

I can't join a dating service. I'm trying to get up the nerve to ask my friend to prom.

I'm so scared!

I am currently in a relationship with someone I actually started talking to through Interference

He's wonderful and is not at all embarrassed/scared by my U2 obsession. In fact, he sees many of my posts on PLEBA and thinks it's cute...sometimes

I'm not sure about the using U2 just to impress you...maybe you can talk to him a little more and if it seems like EVERYTHING he says somehow relates to U2...then maybe you should be a little suspicious.

But I would suggest at least talking to him. You never know who's out there waiting for you

Good luck!

He kind of failed on other things so he's out of the picture anyway.

I just sat here wondered in general, because he's not the first that has started a mail with U2 lyrics, all of them have later showed not to be anything interesting. I don't know, somehow I think it's better getting to know each other without U2 interfering.

What does the rest of you think?

 

[The_Sweetest_Thing]

The guy i just starting seeing...well, i told him. "look, i have this obsession w/ U2. You're gonna have to learn 2 live w/ it." He liked U2, knew a bit about them...

then he downloaded, like sooo much. Mainly to impress me. I didn't know whether to be impressed, or wary.

I registered at some dating site once. I don't remember what it was called, thematch.com maybe. Or matchmaker.com I don't know, I never visited.

I think that maybe that would be the best thing...to get to know someone without U2 being the main topic of conversation...though it can be an excellent starting point. Blah on men who try to be something they're not just to impress women :\ grrr...

Is there any way you could remove U2 from your profile? Maybe that'll help? Just a suggestion...

Yeah, sure I can change it any time but I want it in there because that keeps guys who hates U2 away. LOL

For me this is just for fun, I'm not looking for Mr Right, I just want to chat with people for fun. Mr Right will show up, one day or another but hopefully not too soon.

There are many registered that are involved and are just looking out for new people so it's not just a dating site. People who mail me that sounds too serious is also out of the picture.... I'm a mean girl. LOL

MONA'S BOYFRIEND AUDITIONS
1. Take these cowboy jeans. PUT EM ON. Then strut, darn you, STRUT. (I mean, have you SEEN that Madonna video? Holy Moses toeses....them pardners are spicy)

2. Please do not laugh at my saying "them pardners are spicy." Get used to it. Listen, I know that most of what I say will eaither not make sense or will not be relevant at the time it is spoken....but..hey, don't you think Sebastian Bach looks like Britney Spears in that video "18 and Life?" Come on. You KNOW he does.

3. Tell me that Bono is hot. I don't care -- I WON'T think you're gay. And if I do....is that SUCH a bad thing? REALLY? ....what camera? I don't have a camera. Now....now kiss that Bono poster. Yeah...

4. It's our anniversary. WHAT DO YOU BUY ME?
a. jewelry
b. dictionary so's I can spell "anniversary"
c. fruit snacks

IF YOU ANSWERED C, WE'S GETTIN' HITCHED.

5. I warn you. For fun, I do calculus problems. And when I try to play the geetar I go *strum* some random chord and yell PANAMA! in the basement. If this concerns you, please don't bother to apply for the boyfriend, um, position. You can still send the jean pictures, though....

6. Would you have any problem if I referred to you as "Ramon the FireFighter?" Bc, um, I already wrote MONA + RAMON on my Economics notebook....

OK PLEBA pals....now you have to round up all the members of the U2 gender that you know and have 'em fill this out. Just leave the responses in Larry's Suggestion Box.

BONO: Suggestive WHAT?

Lilly that is sooo adorbale, he's like you through all of high school? You should probably ask Andrew as soon as you can, because if you don't then he might not have any hope that you will ask, so when you ask after Spring Break he might already have another date... so find the right moment and ask!!!

I can't wait for prom, except when I had to turn a guy down... I felt sooooo bad even he said it was cool, but I still feel like I hurt him

ugh, dating sites. i admit that i have put a profile on one or two, just to see what kind of responses i would get. nothing but weirdos looking for someone to get busy with or some really cute guys that lives half way across the country.

regarding putting U2 as an interest or whatever, i think it's a good idea. some of the guys who have responded to me was because of the music i liked. music is a good ice breaker.
