Plenty of Fish - "xxxannaxxx wants to meet you"

[Guest [ch...]]

So I joined Plenty of Fish because I'm lonely. No, my profile does not say "pathetic benzo addict seeking soulmate" . Though that might work as well as a stereotypical "blah blah blah happy full life blah blah blah like walks on the beach blah blah blah" profile..

 

Anyway, they send you messages "so-and-so wants to meet you" when someone indicates they want to meet you. And soon I got a message "xxxannaxxx wants to meet you". Xanax ?! Someone who thinks she's as addictive as Xanax? Or maybe it's just someone named Anna who put xxx before and after her name? I guess I should meet her and find out...

[[Ch...]]

Yikes, I'd proceed with caution unless those xxx's are  . 

[[Sh...]]

This gave me a big smile today Chessplayer.  Oh the irony!  The universe has a quirky way of winking at our struggles, often as if to say "yeah you're in deep doo doo but get a load of this!"  You are not alone.  Many of us here are isolated and feel alone through this.  Good luck with Plenty of Fish.

You know Chessplayer...for the exact same reason...I joined eHarmony, and honestly, it has stressed me out, and knocked my self-esteem into the gutter. Everything hinges on your pic, and it made me realize I can't do this right now.

 

I've checked into other chat groups; however, IMHO...there pretty much all the same.

 

I"m sorry your feeling lonely. If it helps in any way...I think a big % of us are.

 

Hang in there, and I hope you have a good day

I had the same problem on Match. Only one pix is not good enough, Many have pixs in double digits. All  are are sister companies, and pass your credit card around. I had to go to the fraud dept of my bank to get back money they should not have charged me for. Match, chemistry and overtime are all the same company.

. Match, chemistry and overtime are all the same company.

 

Really, I did not know this. Thanks for the info.

 

One other time I joined another sight. I was really pleased with my bio. Long story short. I stopped going there as I found it stressful. I was emailed to pay for my new subscription, and I than logged in, and was shocked as to all the hits I had. After looking closely...my account had been hacked and the woman kept EVERYTHING that I had in my bio. She just replaced my pic with hers. What a joke...do people even read the bio's or do they go on the pic's alone?

 

I have to laugh about it now; however, at the time it really stung.

That sux big time. I'll find someone live. The internet is beginning to look not so good these days. That's why I don't get it, when people, like my bro, hang out on Facebook all day long and post 200 pixs of their dog. Just one will do. He also sends them all of the time to my iPhone. He needs a new wife. And then when you log on once a month, you get 75 friend requests. Like who are these people? Must be scammers. Ridiculous.

Well I never met Ms Xanax, but I did meet someone I like.

 

Ah, dating while tapering...

 

Went out on 1st date, 2nd date, 3rd date. Took her back to my place.

Time for my evening dose of Valium, so I said "excuse me" and measured out my 100ml = 1mg and drank it.

"What's that, Viagra?" she asked. "No, Valium" I replied. "Nervous?" she asked.

"No, I'm addicted but am tapering off" I replied. Then I had to explain my whole benzo situation. Oy.

But it went well - she listened and didn't run away. Then, yada yada yada. (Seinfeld reference).

 

We're seeing each other now and it's going nicely.

Good going, Chess. But I think men have the advantage over women on these sites. Like I see a guy who says he is 68 and is looking for someone was is 25...................."And must be very pretty." lol

Done! And I AM (mostly) german, btw.   

[[be...]]

TY!

[[Ce...]]

TY!

 

Now try to behave yourself! 

[[sn...]]

Yep...It seems no matter how many people are in my life...I'm still very lonely. What's up with that?  So, I do feel for all who are lonely. 

 

Love always,

She must have been impressed with your honesty, Chessplayer.  Good move! 

 

LOL, "What's that, Viagra?"  "Valium?  Nervous?"  Sounds like a Seinfeld script...

The Seinfeld reference was the "yada yada yada":

 

Jerry: "Tell me about your date"

Elaine: "Well, we went out to eat, I had a great lobster bisque, then he took me back to his place, yada yada yada"

Jerry: "Hey, you just yada-yada-yada'ed over the best part!"

Elaine: "No I didn't, I told you about the lobster bisque"

I remember that Episode. But the one I like best is the valet who stunk up Jerry's car.

I tried those sites but women find me unattractive until they see how much money I have. Then they find me unattractive and poor.  Good to hear you're doing well, CP.
