I'm here because I like pissing people off.

Yep, I said it.



Actually, like some of the other posters have mentioned, I am fascinated by human relationships and behavior. This is like prime observation ground. I'm telling you, psychologists would have a field day on here.

Notice I said usually. That means it isn't an absolute.
Well, I'm not sure what to say about that. Although, I have friends in my scene that are black...a friend of mine is dating a black guy right now, a hippie techno dj, and they're always flipping off all over the place. She's off to Tailand next week. Fancy restaurants are not the norm. Meditating in the back canyons is. There are other scenes out there. But, if you're not doing it yourself, you're not going to find women who are. Be what you want.

To add- when I was younger I imagined the kind of man I wanted. Then, I set out to become that person (generally).

I think it's a better gauge to judge people over the tube. I cannot fathom how anyone believes what they see on the tube. It's not real, yet some fashion their pov's around it.

I've noticed that there's a few people who post here who are already married or in a relationship but they have contributed to the discussions so I guess it's not just single people who are interested in how men and women interact.
What are your reasons for posting on this forum? Thanks.
It's fun, I've met some interesting people, have made some friends and on top of that, I think that I give a pretty damn good advice when it comes to relationships. I don't know why, a lot of my friends tell me that I'm very good when it comes to this stuff and many of them come to me for advice. Maybe I should consider a psychology major.

I post on another relationship board that is populated by women mostly with one or two men chiming in occasionally. This seems to be a nice, even mix. And I always love to hear the male perspective, it helps!

That and we're way cooler than all those geeks on the other board.

Is your friend Black? If she is, does he appreciate her?

I'm not here to to offer any insight or advice. I just stop by to take a quick break from online shopping. I find some of the angry folks and egomaniacs to be entertaining.

I'm here to read the battle between the sexes, and give women a few jabs from time to time.

Intially I stumbed across CD way back in the day when I was looking for someone. After hunting around this mammoth place for a few weeks I figured it was like looking for a needle in a haystack so I gave up on that as a plan and started playing in the games forum instead then moved on to reading the relationships forum because it interests me and I spent a bit of time looking through the photography forum too.

NOW I guess I hang out in the Relationships forum because I've made friends here, scored a fiance and I generally like being around the place for sentimental reasons. Well that AND a good old giggle at some of the stuff that goes on. Besides if I didn't hang out here, who else would you point and laugh at?
