MSN Dating

Why does Match.com need another dating site? What's wrong with its own?

I get this place as a much more trusted one, and here I hope to see really sincere open persons. The other site of them, the main one, has a lot of trolls as any other matrimonial web-sites. It's not MSN's issue, but the human's ... The greater the fears or the greater the lies, the greater number of their masks :( I hope here to find real people. If someone fakes their own face(Book) :), they fake their life as they please ...

Dating has turned into way too much work! lol

Have to to agree with Carolyn

I'm not looking to impress women. I already enjoy being created in the "Imago Dei." What could I possibly do that would be more impressive than that? If her threshold is above the "Imago Dei," she needs not a makeup makeover but a mind makeover.

I had incorporated some tips in my blog at http://howtodate.blog.com

yikes...girl i went out w/started sharing about her divorce and her crazy x and how they still fight...that was way2 TMI 4me

When you encounter that person......RUN......

Totally agree -- one should never chat about their exes on a first date! Well, unless they don't want a second one. :)

I think you should respect your relationship with someone enough that you'll protect yourself from having either.

Emotional!

I met an exceptional man. I find it interesting that my initial attraction to him was only enough to get me to send him my relationship essentials, but once we started talking, I stopped talking to other men whom I had more initial attraction. I'll be honest, we haven't gone on a first date yet. He lives two hours away, and I'm going to be too busy for the next couple of weeks. I can't wait to see him! But then I can. Hopefully the wait will be worth it. lol I'll keep you posted!

Hurrah, Jacquelyn! That's great. Good that you gave him a chance - I think so many of us are guilty of dismissing people too soon without getting beyond the basics. Keep us posted on your blooming romance!

I wasn't asking about his feelings. In fact, I didn't say anything about feelings. I just wanted him to talk to me. It started shortly after we started dating. He talked to me a lot at first and then just stopped. I realize now that it is because of our attachment styles. We're just not compatible that way. The biggest issue, though, is that I know... Read More exactly what I am looking for in a relationship and he doesn't. I have continued to talk with him briefly but otherwise have ended our relationship. I understand about being in the military. I was in the military myself until recently. When it comes down to it, I deserve better and I want better. And I am referring to BEFORE he deployed. Thanks to chemistry.com I've already found someone else. Haven't gone on a first date yet, but I very much enjoy talking to him. I hope the chemistry continues in person! lol

Thanks, William. I really like what you had to say!

Since we've introduced Darwin into the discussion, we may as well admit that arguably one of the most important "jobs" after the origin of species is the perpetuation of our species. This sacred and highly specialized job requires both a penis and a vagina. Otherwise there'd be no one left to carry on this thread on FB or elsewhere.

good point *scratching head*

William, dare I say you're overthinking it. :) Women appreciate a little extra effort. If she's worth it, make the effort. Otherwise, you get out of it what you put into it...!

MSN Dating: Where do you live? I live in NY City. A "little extra effort" has landed me on the wrong end of "false" accusations of sexual harassment. I once asked a co-worker to lunch for a pre-agreed to business pow-wow only to learn that rather than say "no thank you," she went to the Head of PR who told the VP who shortly thereafter accused ... Read Moreme of sexual harassment (even though the female Head of PR insisted to him it was not). I maintained it was not and was fired on the spot. I have similar stories. One woman's "extra effort" is another woman's "sexual harassment." At least in New York City. By the way, if you insist the rub is to "really think," how can I simultaneously "overthink" it? This is a non sequitur. I would submit to you that many of us underthink an invitation to a date and rely too much on uninformed perception, feeling, intuition, and as elsewhere, "sexual megalomania!"

Love God

LIVE his love for God!!

Well yeah, it's a plug - I do have a job here, y'know. :D Okay, so what's your screen name on Match? I'll critique it! And maybe one of our lovely MSN Dating fans will take a look and be interested...ooh, my first Facebook Matchmaking experience!

ok gigi that could be fun actually but honestly I need a non-public way to send you that website. there is not a 'send message' link on this MSN site but you could I'm sure just send one through my Facebook and I could send it back maybe? Confidentiality is pretty important, no?

About the Match page itself...I just posted it sometime last week ... Read Moreand actually paid the six month fee. I'm almost done with my masters which has not allowed me to date for the better part of a year (stress!)...so I figured I would sorta get my feet wet and learn and then be maybe a little more aggressive in the next month or so. but I would love to have a female's advice for sure. I've asked 'frineds' of mine but I have no idea if they'll be honest with me...sometimes girls are weird like that if there is an inking of romantic interest on their part they'll be throwing little white lies everywhere.....right? so yeah. :-)
