The Facebook phenomenan has openend up a whole new way of meeting people and being chatted up online.
Facebook groups:
Facebook has quite a few groups dedicated to the singles and to helping them find someone. These groups range from the normal to outrageous: dating in the city, booty call, bringing sexy back...
Facebook applications:
I have discovered a few dating applications - but have not really signed up to any of the. I have however signed up to "YES or NO", but the gene pool is still a bit small in there - so I'll keep itaround and see what happens.
Random Facebook chat-ups:
I have had quite a few of these random guys seeing my picture on a group list and emailing me. Usually just a short message and a compliment - but hey, who am I to judge?
I will try out the Facebook applications in the meanwhile and dedicate some space and time to this.

Repeating the mistakes of the past - or the fear thereof
I have an admirer. He phones me daily, he emails me, he Gtalks me - and sometimes I just want it to stop. I just want to be able to not have to explain where I've been or what I've been doing or why I won't be online tonight. I don't want to have to explain that I'm not in a good mood either and that it's not because I have pms - it's just because.
I know that I sound selfish. I really don't care. I'm not involved and I seriously cannot be expected to act as if I'm involved.
I have done this before where I've just given in to a guy that came on too strong and ended up dating him for 3 years. 3 miserable years. I'm not doing it again.

To long distance or not (continued 3)
I met Mr Ireland. He is normal. Interesting.
And on his way to England for 5 months.
Unfortunately.

To long distance or not (continued 2)
I have to write this in as I finally met up with a guy that lives very very very very far.
He is a normal Afrikaans guy that owns a house not too far from mine, but he has decided to try Ireland 6 months ago. We’ve been chatting for a month and a half… and I’m meeting him in 2 weeks.
What have made me stay on this long distance chat so long?
I have to admit that I sort of developed an emotional connection with this guy that I’ve never met in person. I can’t wait to get home after work and seeing him online. Even better – he phones me every day.
The worst part about chatting to someone this long and never meeting is that you always start romantisizing them and when you finally meet you have put so much building up into it that ift can never match up to expectations –or can it?

To long distance or not (continued)
Is Ireland too far?
lol, ok I met this guy on the net and I'm meeting him in 1 month. He lives in Ireland, but he is an Afrikaans guy from Jozi.
We chat on GTalk. He phones me. So I do kind of think that he really tries to keep my attention - and I do appreciate the effort... but I'm still very hesitant on the distance thing.
... but I'll see.

Hi (censored), Thank you for writing, but I really am quite strict on my age criteria - as I'm still into clubbing and the rest of the time I'm building a career and I know that people outside my criteria will not fit into my lifestyle. Good luck with your search.

So, I hope to hear from you soon??
