I know you are shy, but seriously, get out and meet women. It sounds like you're planning your new career as a "telephone psychic". You're gonna spend way more time on the phone (of course you can still keep an eye on the tv), and isn't that site rather costly?

I think you are headed towards phone sex to meet your "self-imposed dating deadline of the end of October." To set the tone, set up your room in a warm comfortable manner. One suggestion is to play soft music adding flowers, candles, or whatever. Maybe you could rent a disco ball for the ceiling. Now that you have a mood set, put your phone on Loudspeaker, dial Lavatease, and enjoy Ms. LaPalma

One more thing, please remember that some of these chicks may be talking on their phone and driving.

I've never done either of these things so I can't say much about the experience, but it seems you have high expectations without wanting to put any effort into a relationship. Assuming you want a relationship. It sounds like you're trying to get off without having to dish out any money.

3. you get bored browsing tons and tons of women ads

Can't you narrow your search?


4. lots of women with blank essays in their profile

5. having to state your salary info your ad

You could lie?

6. having to state your occupation in your ad

Again you could lie?

7. women wanting to talk on IM for 90 days

8. women writing LONG emails

Wouldn't you want to get to know someone before you meet them in this type of situation?

9. getting messages from women 45 and over

10. too much competition




I'm excited about going back on telephone dating because

1. men are judged by their voice and personality

Uh huh

2. men have more fun because it's a live chat

I bet they do?

3. men can eliminate getting messages from ugly woman by sound of her voice

Uh huh

4.you can touch base instantly because you already have a feel for each other's personality

5.there is no email or instant messenger hurdle

6. you can tell in 4 secs what woman are crazy

Uh huh

7. you are not asked for your job or salary info

8. you don't get bored browsing ads because they are live voices not pics

9. it's a higher success rate because lots of men don't speak well in their ads

10. you have a choice of being in LTR, causal dating, friendship, imitate encounters, or alternative lifestyles.

Uh huh



So with teledating BOTH genders are having fun not just one gender like it is on internet dating.


I highly recommend a telephone dating service to all the men on here called Lavalife. It's very popular and exciting and I can't wait. Online dating SUCKS

If I weren't married I think I would prefer dating real people in reality.

It's your accent, sweetie. Plus the fact that we know you can't stalk us terribly easily from where you are.

(Joke! I'm sure you're a fine bloke and not some manky bogan )

Don't you even realize that you can't tell if a woman is ugly or pretty depending on the sound of her voice You're in for a big surprise if you really do believe this.

Oh ye who allegedly swore off Craigslist a year or more ago and in the next breath went right back onto it. Didn't work for you before you stopped using it and didn't work afterwards so why bother? (Oops, not counting the "after midnight" couple of skanks who paid you a booty call ...)

You really should just say in your ads that your local area is severely limited to a range of a few blocks from house and nearby office but that you will make the effort to date outside those limits only if: (a) there's a bus stop or train station close by; (b) the date has a car and will come to pick YOU up; (c) it's not raining. You can leave out all the other eliminating factors until the first meeting actually segues into a second "date". That hasn't yet happened so you really don't need to concern yourself with itemizing the defaults you simply won't accept. The list is horrendously long anyway and takes up way too much space.

I've actually met several women who've worked on phone-sex lines and who've made quite a good living because their speaking voices are quite incredible. Certainly not the hot babes pictured on the ads, they're a mixture of homely, overweight, underweight, whole gamut of "normal" women who for the most part wouldn't inspire an initial "OH WOW" from a man in lust. But their voices are magical.

But of course we're talking about TVSG's dating site adventures and he would be most offended to think that his CD profile were sullied by any admission of actually contributing to any sort of phone sex.

However, TVSG, little Grasshopper, if you think that, on the telephone, "men are judged (by women - my addition) on their voice and personality" and the same doesn't apply where men picking up women are concerned then you are surely mistaken.

I'm hazarding a guess that neither your voice nor your delivery are anything much to write home about. If your command and knowledge of language, grammar and the world in general is anything to go by then, based on your posts over the last couple of years, you've got a long way to go. You're already close to 35 if you didn't reach that mark already and yet you listen to not one whit of helpful information.

But you're a Poster Boy for sure and that seems to make you happy! Tick tock, tick tock, Oct is almost over ....

Obviously he does believe it. For the non-believers, only time and cash, will tell.

Lavalife TV ads are hilarious, because they're always some hot young thing in a low cut top rolling around on the floor with a phone and saying that she's waiting just to talk to you. I always wonder "who falls for that crap?" and lo, TVSG does. Surprise!

We've probably all heard radio DJs and envisioned what they look like based on their voices, and they invariably look like contestants on the Biggest Loser.

If CD is around in 10 years you all know we will still be reading the same things with a few more excuses thrown in by that time lol.

He will continually waste his and the poor girls time that fall into his realm of dates.

He probably passed up a few good ones along the way for some stupid reason that 99% of the rest of us ignore or look over lol maybe he will realize this some day, maybe not.
