Free Personals Dating Archives

I took the test and now it wants me to click "I agree to the terms and conditions"

I read most of the terms and conditions and it told me that when I finish that I am automatically a member. Do I have to pay money? How much do I have to pay a month (U.S. Dollars)?

Is it safe (the terms)?

Question about our relationship…?

I have been seeing this guy since about January 1st.. we met on yahoo personals… anyways.. we have decided to date, " I didn’t know there was a difference between dating/seeing, apparently if you are seeing someone, they are able to see other people? idunno, what he said" We have agreed to stay excusive, which means no other partners.. I prefer that, and I have voiced my opinion about the issue.. Anyways.. I know that he has an ad on every personals site there is/some with his d**k picture, other pictures of himself.. all you have to do is type in the area he lives in, even without subscribing, and his name/pic pops up.. he said he did it to reach a larger group of people, because not everyone uses 1 site… I really wish he would delete every single one of them while we are dating, is this wrong of me? should I just trust what he is saying is true? I don’t want to make him mad, afterall I went to these sites (without subscribing) and looked up his name/area. thanks for any help!
I took my (1) ad off of yahoo right after we started seeing eachother.
I have so many questions… like about where the relationship is going, but don’t want to scare him away, we haven’t been together long, and it has been going great..
I’m in college, and he works from home/travels a bit for his job.. we see eachother on the weekends/during the week some…. I want to trust him so much, but dont want to end up with a broken heart, like what happened in a previous relationship… Thanks to everyone who gives advice!

I’m a good girl – not easy but easygoing, can get along w. everyone and old fashioned in love. I’m going through this phase where i’m "jaded" right now (went through a situation a few months back) and am in no mood for guys right now. I’m not biter, I’ve moved on, i’m happy to be single & just want to take time for myself and it’ll be awhile ’til i become "close" and care for someone again. No relationships anytime soon.

My friend asked me to go on this date w. her co-worker. First off, "who is this? what’s his name? what’s he like?" I’m not a fan of "blind dating" and why would I go out w. someone I know nothing about. All she said was he was "nice". I’m sorry but "nice" isn’t going to cut it anymore b/c everyone is nice. I told her to jsut bring him to our get togethers and i’ll meet him there. I got there and this was this same guy, she tried to set me up w. a few months back. She knew he wasn’t my type and right away, I knew still wasn’t. He’s a cool guy but I wouldn’t date him. Now he’s texting me and I was cautious of that too b/c he seems more into me than I am of him and I don’t want to lead him on. He wants to take me to go to dinner "as friends" but we all know that that’s just an excuse to get closer until he gets what he wants…me lol And a guy won’t work that hard to be "friends" w. a girl. Now he’s all "bobby brown" on me w. texting (like raunchy) and it’s gross. My friend said he thinks "i’m hot" and tht I should go out w. him to get free dinner. NO WAY. I’d rather take MYSELF out to dinner and pay. I MAY BE SINGLE AND LONELY SOMETIMES BUT I’M NOT DESPERATE. Even guys scan out other girls REALLY well to see if she’s good enough for their friends, why can’t girls be the same? I know she means well but it’s an insult to me bc he’s not even my type and she keeps throwin the "friends" excuse and now i gotta deal w. this horny dude on my own. And it’s different between me and her b/c he WORKS w. her so of course, they’re gonna be friends.

Do you think I’m being a *****? What should I do and how do I handle this dude?
I told my friend straight up but she assures me he just wants to be "friends" and "he’s not like that" (my ***) I, however, don’t trust him b/c honestly, A GUY DOESN’T WORK THAT HARD TO BE "FRIENDS" W. A GIRL HE FINDS "BOMB", RIGHT?
he’s been texting since my friend gave him my #. If I text back right away all eager, he’ll take our "getting to know each other as friends" as "talking". So i’m being "real" w him right now. Not interested so not gona respond right away, i’ll do it later

On January 16th, I walked in to Comcast to take an assessment test for a position as a CAE (Customer Account Executive). It pays well and the benefits are good. First, they told me to fill out an application packet. I got halfway through it when they told me and a bunch of others to come to a room where they were conducting an online personality test. The questions they asked were just "would you have a problem working these hours, days, and times?" and "do you have a problem with any of the practices and "do you understand the terms and conditions?" On ALL of the questions, i answered that i wouldn’t have a problem with it and that i would do anything that was asked of me. Well, after all of the bullshit of taking that bullshit personality test, i didn’t walk away with the job. I was then told by one of the hiring managers of HR that at the time, that they didn’t think i was a good fit at this time and told me to re-apply again in six months! What kind of BS is that? I didn’t need that job in six months! I needed that job N-O-W! NOW! How much of a personality do you REALLY need to work for a place like this? As cool as i answered the questions, i still didn’t get the job! WTF? As tight as things are in this economy, i NEEDED this job more than ever and they shot me down! I need MY money! I need MY benefits! Even after i went to another hiring event two weeks ago for Comcast, the same lady i ran in to in January recognized me and told me to come back around June!

But I also remember that during the application process in January, I signed something that Comcast gave me that said that after you’re rejected, we’re not at liberty to discuss why. Even after I demanded she tell me why because I’d done everything necessary that they’d ask and still didn’t get the job! So another question I want to ask is this: Is it necessary and fair for employers to give applicants confidentiality documents like that? And, if i decide to go to another hiring event at Comcast and re-apply, but I don’t sign that confidentiality document that they gave me the last time I was there, are they going to hold that against me and decide not to hire me because of it? See, my thing is because of the poor state of the economy, there are not enough jobs to go around. So if I get turned away for a job, I WANT TO KNOW WHY! I SHOULD BE OWED THAT MUCH for putting myself through this mess! It’s only fair, right?

What do you all think? Am I right or AM I RIGHT?
And another thing: You can pass the "online personality test" and be a really bad employee! You can also fail the test, but be one of the best employees! It’s just like when jobs want to start judging employees by their credit score just to hire them, and that’s some bullshit too! I just wanted to add this.

Can you really meet anyone of substance online?

I mean do these "dating" sites (match.com, yahoo!personals, etc) work? Have you had any experiences to share?

Feel free to participate and just label yourself 1 2 or 3. Thanks in advance to those that participate.

1.I’m on here giving my honest answers to serious questions with the understanding that most serious questions can not be answered in one post and rely heavily on the information provided by the poster.
2.I’m on here giving one straightforward answer on what I believe is the way even though I know there are other possibilites to the scenario. I know the answer from my own experience.
3.I’m on here just fooling around not giving any serious thought because i’m bored or want to have fun.

I applied for a job at The Cheesecake Factory and got an interview on the spot. After the interview ended, I was scheduled for another interview and to take a "personality" test.

I was really excited, but now I’m weary. I thought they liked me because they invited me back, but now I have this test to worry about. What is this?

I got a response from this guy who only had a picture of him with sunglasses on. I didn’t think much of it, didn’t care. I e-mailed and have now talked on the phone with this guy a couple weeks. He just sent me more photos and I am not attracted to him physically. What do I do? He is wanting to set up a "date". Please help. I don’t want to be rude, but I don’t want to date someone if I know I am not attracted in some way.

i want a site that gives you your own webpage- upload more that 10 photos at least–other fun stuff that im not used to is what im expecting too– ive really only used the friend finder site-and that site is really restrictive– i want to hear music when im chatting too–chat rooms that arent necessarily adult but how about people i can talk to on a more realistic level not so "date" or "singles" minded but not like single topic rooms like politics or games stuff like that– how about cool stuff like whats the coolest site youve been to lately and where are some good music sites that are easy to check out without having to fill out a bunch of stuff to check out the site and find that you don’t like it-or its hard to use and i want to be able to post video clips too —thanks to anyone who is willing to answer my post –and i promise to give back and do some answer also –sincerely art(gamezilla2005)

Are fishing rods from wal mart reliable?

Use : be able to bring 20 inch bluefish up from a pier without breaking.

my father has old ass fishing rods. from the 80′s and they were all like 10 bucks each with a reel. and they do their job great and never broke. but there getting old. they look ugly. they are heavier than newer rods. their reels are just so old and full of shit its harder to reel. and i am sick of just fishing for spot fish at the piers. and my dad gets all the blues.

so i wanna buy my own blue fishing rods.

i mean i am not going to be a pro fisherman and only go fishing a few times a year. i don’t neeed a 300 dollar fishing rod. . .I went to walmart and saw plenty of medium/heavy action rods w/ reel for 20 bucks. from a company called daiwa.

thing is from what my dad says. that hose things are weak. they will just snap at the pier. their too thick and very unflexible. and he says all fishing rods from wal mart are trash. he says only buy a fishing rod from a tackle shop. he even said sports authority has trash rods. and he says buying a rod for over 40 bucks is bull shit. cause he knows he got his for 10 lol. and a ugly stick cost like 80. . .

well what do you guys think? have you tried em?

thanks guys. i mean my dads been fishin but i doubt he’s "up to date" with things and he is no professional fisherman. so i can’t just listen to everything he says.,
my dad has 60 lb line and 100 lb on some. but those things cost $$$$$$

shiet think i can handle blues with 20 lb mono? i will have a wire leader. durrrr.

but than again my dad needs those strong lines for tautog! lol thats some intense fishing. like the inlet ones. go to jersey for those fishiesss. mmm taste so good raw. sashimi those shiets.

Is there a way to view my IM chat history? I am trying to find the exact date my friend and I started "dating". We are persuing a relationship and want to remember the exact date we met.

This is the exact quote from the personality test:

"You are a skywalker. You love adventure, both intellectual and physical. And you greet new challenges with passion and bravery."

I was wondering if "skywalker" has an actual definition, other than as a last name in Star Wars. You can imply the answer by reading the rest of the personality assessment, but is there a real definition, even one from Star Wars, that lists the characteristics of a person who is considered a skywalker?

Thanks.

I have heard that some singles find it easier to meet people on social networking sites because there is less attention to the "dating" focus than the free online dating sites.

Wondering if you’ve had the same experiences or have an opinion about this topic.

I have a profile on "Plenty of Fish" dating web site and all I am asking for is just a nice dinner date with a lady, no expectations other than to try to give her a nice evening on the town, then we can say goodnight as friends.

It has been nearly impossible to get women interested. Do I have to begin offering money to the women to go out with me for a dinner date?

How can I get more women interested in receiving free nights on the town from me?

This is what I say in my ad:

<<Hi, thanks for your time.
I just want to add a bit of sunshine into your life, I want to make you a bit more happy, that’s all that I really want.

I would just love the opportunity to treat a lady to a nice dinner at a restaurant that she would be interested in going to (but please, only a lady, not her children too).
I am new to the area so I am open to all suggestions of places to visit. I enjoy some interesting conversation and small talk, then we can smile and wish each other the best of luck and happiness and say goodbye. Simple, no hassles, no problems, no expectations.

I enjoy meeting interesting women who have a happy and sunny personality, who enjoy life and who have a good sense of humor ( like me ). I am very relaxed, calm, and very easy-going (its impossible to make me upset over anything). So you think that I am someone who you would be interested in having dinner with then lets make plans for our dinner together.

Thanks and have a wonderful day :-) ">>

<< MY IDEA OF A FIRST DATE: "A great first date would be to go and have something nice to eat at a fine restaurant; some place that she wishes to go to. I am open to all suggestions, I am here to please.

(I don’t mind if you have children or not, but I wish for only a calm and relaxed one-on-one date, not a family get-together with your kids, so please leave your kids home for the evening.)

Again, thanks and have a WONDERFUL DAY !! " >>
