    Internet Dating & Crossing-street kids
    Posted by yahoopersonal on 2007-09-18 16:10:22
    I have an experience with putting out an ad on Yahoo in 1999(when it was still free), I was also 18 at that time. I put out an ad with "Looking for an Honest Guy" as the title but really my reason for listing an ad was not for a date or to catch a guy (believe me that was the farthest from my mind at that point). I had, had a very bad day that day I was in the mad at the world phase at the point I typed it up. I basically bashed all guys in my ad (among other people, places ect.). I also put the ad out just to get a good laugh the next day. I think I got about 3 or 4 people from that ad all honest. One guy wanted sex only(at least he came out with it right? lol)we actually chatting nothing big I got alot of laughs from him (he wasn't that bad of a guy but not what I would ever date), the next was an 80 year old guy from West Virginia asking me to be his breeder and pop out a few kids for him (LOL I think I laughed the most at this one, I never replied to him he was just scary), the third was my future husband (no joke) I actually found him through this ad after bashing guys in it and all LOL. He is the most honest guy you could find, he was for the most part normal, we chatted for about 2 or 3 months before I gave in and and met him. We have been married for 6 years coming up on 7 years. So see you do get lucky sometimes, I got lucky even without trying.

    On to the other issue about crossing the street what we told my step-son (when he was younger) and our son is make sure you have an adults hand, look both ways. We also threw in how that if the ran out into the street (or walked)and got hit they would end up in the hospital, would get stuck with all kinds of needles, might not be able to walk, ect ect ect. So we did the scare tactic with them it has worked for the most part both hate needles and going to the doctor.

    Why do nine of the female categories have to do with negative physical appearance, when only two of the male categories do?

    I think none of them are flattering and there are plenty of male ones that imply unattractiveness.. its all subjective anyway
