Blind date

I would, only if I knew the person who was setting us up really well. And they knew the other person really well as well. Not just "hey, I know two people, they should date". And only if I was really desperate for dates, lol. I don't care much about having a relationship these days.

 

Eeeek! Blind date...

Did it back in December and I've been hanging out with the gal ever since...

A mutual friend got us together, and I'm the last person to ever friggin' do anything like a blind date...we went out, had a good time, and things have been going cool since...

Always try it...if it doesn't work.. try a couple more times, then if it fails again try something else.....at least you'll get some stories out of it...

 

The best fun would be to get two really uptight people and throw them together. (Like a millitant black dude and a white supremecy chick. That way the two of them could sit there all night lying about how open they are to each other's culture and heritage while secretly hoping that no one they know sees them together.~Bellfire~ (Yeah I said it first.)

 

Shit...I'd rather toss a dog & a cat in a cage match before seeing what you're describing...heh heh

Poseurs & plastics are always the most fun to watch...especially when you throw down a race card...

Stick 'em on a blind date and we've got a series on MTV...meh

I never would. If someone was trying to set me up, I would tell them to invite whoever along to a bar or show in a group type setting and I'd see from there if there was a possibility for chemistry. But even that I would be uncomfortable with - too many expectations. I'm very fickle about who I date, so I often times spend many many months single until I manage to find someone I'm interested in.

 

blind dates are very uncomfortable..
especially if you get stuck with a wierdo or someone who looks like they have ideas

 

I like blind dates - and if the lady ends up being fat or nasty, that's cool - it gives me an excuse to get really drunk and behave badly.

You'd hate me. I'm fat and if you got drunk and offensive I'd fix you but good. I hope you have a lot of guts because I have al ot of nerve.

 

I shouldn't have said fat up there - I meant grossly obese - I like slightly overweight better than underweight - and you know that I'd be on my best, sober behavior if I went out with you Bellfire - there 'aint nothing finer than a hot-sweet slice of chocolate cake - and I wouldn't do anything to mess up a good thing

 

I met my hubby through friends...it wasn't a typical "blind date", we were all out at a bar together and got "introduced with a purpose".

We've been together ever since...

 

awww, *plays harp*

lucky..
I went on one where the guy came into my apartment and started going through my things

 

see that I can deal with. being introduced with a purpose I cannot. I was hanging out with my friend/employee Sandy yesterday and the topic of lovelife came up and I said mine's not so great, going through a break up. So she was like, "Well, when you feel like dating someone new, I know this cute massage therapist that you might like. You guys might be good together" I stopped her right away - hell no. I would just find the situation weird. I don't understand why people try and set others up. Do they cram their brain and picture the two people they know screwin' or something?

 

I couldn't do it. I'd have too much anxiety before the date and call it off.

If we had friends there introducing us and hanging out it would be a lot different. We could talk and relax a bit having others there to ease the pressure.

 

that's exactly how I am. If I had never met someone or talked to them i would probobly end up bailing the second it got uncomftrable. I'm way shy around guys anyway it's horrible. I need like a written invitation before it registers that someone's into me.

 

I know me. My nerves would take over. I'd probably throw up a few times before I left. I'd be a disaster.

I haven't dated in almost 11 years. Now when I think about dating I think I'd have a check list for my interview, call back number, references, police report file, medical history.lol

 

Thats a good point too. More often than not, I'm clueless as to whether or not a girl is into me. I practically have to have a written contract from their lawyer before I figure it out.

 

What if you meet someone who is "too into you"?

I can normally tell if someone is into me or not. Too much scares me, not enough, no big deal though I have had some massive crushes and was desperate for their attention. Once I had it I realized the no attention was better.

I've ever only had 3 people in my life that I can say I have Loved. Other than that my dating experiences were very short.

 

heh well the scary factor sure makes it more uncomftrable. I've always had to become friends first to be comftrable being romanticly involved with somone but then by the time you become friends more often then not you're no longer attracted to the person because well just from long ago past experience you need to kiss someone before you see spinach in their teeth and feel passion before you here their opposite views on politics. Well I guess I just contridicted myself...heh

 

there's no such thing as someone being to into me unless my feelings for them weren't the same. I have ended up with a few crazies who i was obviously not into because every gesture that a normal person would see as 'oh they like you' I saw it as 'oh damn they're really into learning about kids with special needs'.
