RoseofMI44 74 F 15  questions	How Can You Give Advise Without Reading Profiles - 7/5/2004 If one is to give a reasonable reply to another person's question, wouldn't it be wiser to make your decision based upon their information.

Jack87108 92 M 4  questions	Instructions Revisited - 7/3/2004 INSTRUCTIONS REVISITED <br> Thanks to y'all for your responses. I count six votes for me, three against, and - it seems - four neutral or diversions from the primary subject. I particularly enjoyed an off-line emailed poem that demonstrated the pratfalls that can get past the Spell-Checker. It was also submitted as a response, but so far it has not shown up here. So, I've been ... 4 response(s), 0 votes
wooer 79 M 10  questions	How can you tell? - 7/3/2004 I know it is very rude to ask a lady if she wants sex or not... and it is highly unlikely that she will come up with this topic, but I really want to know, what should I do? How can I transmit my hint to her? by winks? Or maybe she is thinking the same thing as I, but how can I tell? I don't want to miss something, and I don't want to irritate her. Can somebody help? 10 response(s), 0 votes
Kathleen129 65 F 1  question	How soon is too soon? - 7/2/2004 So you get on here, you meet what seems to be a very nice guy. You IM back and forth a couple times a day, email when the mood strikes. You talk on the phone. The catch--you live like 400 miles apart. When do you know it's time for somebody to make the trip? 10 response(s), 0 votes

nina_solo 64 F 1  question	Are there any regular men for regular women anymore? - 6/29/2004 Why is it that nearly every gentleman's profile I read, they are looking for a younger, fit, trim, athletic, beautiful, active, fun-loving, etc. women. <br> Give me a break. If you are the kind of man that a woman like that would be attracted to, I don't think you or any woman fitting that description would be here at this web site. <br> I consider myself attractive ... 2 response(s), 1 vote

(I had to look that up in a dictionary, and learned that fiance is masculine, fiancee is feminine.) Anyway, my thought was to write an offer to trade him my "once a month" wife - but then I suddenly realized that "twice a week" me couldn't handle that lady ... 1 response(s), 0 votes

I want to have a date, but why those beautiful ladies keep saying NO to me? You love a person that you don't want to date? I am not asking for sex, though I would love to, it is up to her.

Jack87108 92 M 4  questions	Many of you just don't read the instructions; Why? - 6/22/2004 AS SFF Magazine suggests, first write your submissions in Word, for instance, and do a spelling and grammar check before mailing. Many of your things come out as if written by a second-grader. And then you wonder why you get no responses. I know most guys can't type, so they are the ones spell-checkers were written for. But when gals come on line looking for dates at concerts or fine ... 4 response(s), 0 votes

KSUGARD 74 F 9  questions	Baggage, check it before boarding................. - 6/12/2004 You know, one thing we all seem to have @ this time in our lives is BAGGAGE in one form or another. We all have to deal with whatever is going on or has gone on in our lives so my question is; Don't you think we should unpack the old bag before packing a new one?

bklynblueeyes19 74 F 5  questions	Am I on the starship Enterprise? - 6/4/2004 It feels like I'm an alien here. Educated, attractive, financially stable, varied interests, and yet unable to be in sync with anyone on SFF so far. Is it that I don't smoke, drink or use drugs? Maybe I should just say "beam me up Scottie" and wait until someone finds my type of woman less intimidating. Good thing the tiger isn't afraid of the tigress.
