    Them chatlines used to be like the old school POF. Except the chatlines worked better. I could count on the chatlines for a hook up every time.

    Exactly. You had to know how to talk and fire up some conversation. You can send the best message to a chick now and it just gets buried with all the lames.
    Even back then I was bold though. I'd just walk up to the finest chick and start a convo. I by passed asking for a number I would just be like let's hang out later on.

    Now it’s all over. Now you solo. How do you feel being out of the game?

    I love it. Now that I'm older I don't want to be out chasing tail. I just enjoy piece and relaxing. It's nice to have a girl that I like and we can accomplish and do stuff together.

    I feel the same but for some reason my desire for other women has not went away. I don’t cheat but if I see a thick one I have to look.

    That's pretty cool!
    Much appreciated. I had to cash out early. When she cook clean and is open to freaky things got a put a ring on it Also a supportive woman who allows you the full range of human emotions and still respects and is attracted to you is something to be cherished when found.

    By accident. I guess, like most people, I was looking for something new and different to do on Facebook. A friend of mine posted a message asking anyone interested in starting an online business to join him. He had been working with a group of women that were doing pretty well and asked me if I would be interested in joining them as well. The one thing led to the other, and here we are....and by the way, the business failed! :-)

    But you got a wife out of it. That's far more valuable.

    My wife and I met in high school, but we didn't start dating until the end of September of 2008. We both graduated that year too, and we rushed into a relationship so we broke it off since we didn't know each other that well. We remained friends until June of 2009, and finally got married in 2020. Turns out she had a huge crush on me throughout high school but I was too blind to see. :V

    Not married. Not serious with anyone either.

    Part of me is hoping for a wild or rare encounter so I have a cool story to tell my kids someday but knowing me, I will meet my future husband at the grocery store and he will be helping me pick up the busted dozen eggs my clumsy self just dropped on the floor!

    I met my husband on FB. The weird thing is, my Father had been telling me about him since I was 5 years old & I've dreamed of him even before my Father mentioned him.
    When I saw his profile picture, I recognized him immediately. It took us a year before we became exclusive & gradually started to tell each other premonitions that proved to be not coincidences.
    We've been together longer than most.

    It's more like what we have today with all the dating sites. A good friend of mine Jack meet his wife from a dating site. It all started as a joke but before we know what's happening, things got really crazy and serious with both of them. They have been married for 3 years now with a kid.

    Congratulations mate. The real truth is that it's very difficult for you to meet anyone who's real enough to be the same thing with what you got online when you guys started talking. Most people are completely different from what they pose as on social media to what they are in real life.
