I used to break the rules years ago and would meet a girl on Christmas Eve and not care anything about a holiday.

But as a guy, you have it a bit easier because you get to do the asking out....

Hey, chill out, it was just my opinion. And this is an open forum, not a private one on one conversation, so anyone can post a response!

I wasn't trying to insult you at all.

Why can't you go out and actually meet someone not in cyberspace? Lots of people at local parks today, at parades, in restaurants...try that!

That's just it though, once you both show up at the same event, or class, or hike, or group, then you are no longer strangers, you are simply two people with a common interest and something to talk about. Go for it. Nothing will change until you do. Best wishes.
