Okay, if all of your friends are married are you friends with their wives? Have them hook you up with some of their friends.
The bad thing is, they are all friend of my Ex too.....

Very poorly played my friend. At the very minimum wait 24 hours (only if you met on a Saturday), but definitely not the morning after.

There's a new player in town and it's taking names!!! Check this site out, free and all the features as Match.com!!! http://www.plentyoffish.com/
Ev. . . I just scanned it. Unkie Trunkie is not impressed

Let's go througn the first five:
1.
Must not have messaged users looking for intimate encounters or sex.
Must not be looking for Other Relationship
Must not be looking for Intimate Encounter


2.
blah.. whO KNOWs! iF yOu wANt tO kNOw mE...
lET ME KNoW............................
i REALLY DONT KNOW WHAT TO SAY.. mY FRIEND wICk WANTED ME TO CHECK IT OUT! SO IM HERE...
Who's Wick, and why did s/he refer her? Jury is still out.

3.
I am a single mom, I work fulltime I love my job and I love my son..
Sorry, Unkie Trunkie isn't ready to be a stepdad.
By the way the man in the picture is my best friend Daniel... he is the one who left the testimonial
Thanks. . . that's all I need. I'm either sloppy seconds, he's gay, or he's gonna stab me in my sleep.

4.
affectionate,cheerful,lazy,reliable......
Must not be looking for Intimate Encounter
Must not do drugs
Must not be married
So, ahh, you expect to earn it? I'm not a lap dog. Thanks.

5.
The list is way to long on #5. She's hot, active and posting. . . so why is she looking for love online? Here's a good summation though:
If your arrogant and just plain stupid and too into yourself Im sooo NOT interested.

The Bay area sucks for meeting women case closed. I had good luck with Match years ago, but don't know how it will play in SF/SJ.

In other places where the single men = single women, Match and craigslist are great for dating and hooking up.

You shouldn't have called the next morning to begin with! That was my point.

Anyways, good luck on Match if you do it and let us know how it turns out. At worst you'll get some interesting experiences and good stories .

it's much easier to meet people in person... and it's surprisingly simple, you can meet a new gal every single day....


1- open your mouth and say something... ANYTHING... most women just want you to open the door of communication, and will do all the leg work from there... I remember one time I told a girl she took my stool at a bar (she hadn't I was just drunk and amusing myself)... even that turned into conversation and her number. Saying absolutely anything will turn into conversation over 50% of the time even for an ugly douche like me... and in fact, NOT complimenting her will spark more interest than some cheesey compliment she's use to. Be inquisitive about something you think she's into, without complimenting it, she'll try to earn your approval... sounds silly, but it's true.

2- if you can't open your mouth, SMILE... yes, really, I know, it sounds like an awful lot of effort to look like you're enjoying yourself are a happy, well adjusted person and she may have sparked your interest, but focus, and put it all together into one cool soft smile at her... should work out 20% of the time if you don't run away when she smiles back.
