I was sondering about this yesterday.

My last girlfriend, before she met me, had signed up for one of those Chemistry/eHarmony/Match.com sites.

She told me she had a few dates and they were catastrophes. They had nothing in common. And she paid money for this!

I'll bet not one person out of ten thousand finds a mate on these sites.

Out of curiosity I once took the test at Chemistry.com. They asked questions about the ratio of my ring and index finger (men have longer ring fingers due to testosterone in the womb). I consider such a ratio irrelevant in a relationship.

They asked one question each about politics and religion -- which I have found to be exremely important in relationships.

I'll bet the owners of these sites are making millions off of lonely desperate people. i'll bet they pay for a month and then let it lapse. But if people are signing up every day, well, there is a sucker born every minute.

i'll bet I could do a better job as a matchmaker than these people.

You're making a mistake with 'relationships'. Just use ashleymadison.com for hooking up w/ married women who are bored (but secure) and just want a fling.

Yeah, it costs money, but everyone knows why they're at the hotel room so you don't have to put up with a lot of touchy-feely bullshit, everyone goes home when you're done and someone else cleans up...love means never having to ask for cab fare.

I still love their slogan "When Monogamy Becomes Monotony"...my only question is "when doesn't it?"

Man, my last five girlfriends have been married and at least ten years younger. Don't know about the romance, but the rest was first rate. ;)

Yeah, isn't amorality and playing a hand in destroying families fun?

It's all fun and games, until a pissed of husband hunts you down with a shotgun. I once knew a very kind man who had never committed any crimes until he found his wife in bed with another man and he simply blew him away.

He was the only ex-con my mother ever allowed around her children.

I've read that many years ago in the South it was legal for a man to kill his wife and her lover if he caught them in be together.

I mean, honestly, how can you do anything to a husband or wife who catches their spouse in bed with someone else?

Absolutely true in both the south and the western states - justifiable homicide.

It should never have changed.

imo

It's a good exercise of common law, and existing "law" should be ignored. Catch a needle dicked low self esteem person in bed with your spouse, feel free to open fire, I say.

Real people aren't afraid of relationships and don't have to destroy others lives to try and fulfill their insecure little requirements. There is no end of single men or women who want only a friends with benefits setup to choose from, the requirement to go to a married person is born solely out of a hatred for oneself and others.

I understand why you feel so strongly, but as it involved ending alife one should at least make sure that the spouse - male or female - didn't initiate the liason, or wasn't equally at fault for the situation.

I mean, if it turns out to be the suuation, all yo do in the end is amke the news media happy for giving them a tragic human interest story with a realironic twist.

It's hard to cut slack to somebody who walks through a home with family pictures on the walls, following a woman with a large ring on her finger up to the bedroom, seeing the open closet with a man's clothes in it, and then goes through with it anyway.

Sorry, in those kinds of cases (which are the only ones I'm talking about, not one where the spouse is intentionally hiding her/his married status, in which case the unsuspecting partner is innocent of malice), then a shotgun shell delivered to the head is appropriate and just.

my opinion is that most (normal) men won't move on a woman until he gets a signal that she's interested. it's my contention that most of the time it's the woman who is the initiator. what do you think?

Sometimes.

There are lots of guys who play the numbers game. They simply approach a woman, signal or no signal, and start chatting her up looking for response. When I worked as a bartender these types were legion.

I know what you're talking about though, the guy who sits and plays it cool and waits for some kind of subtle glance or interest to be shown. It kind of can go one way or the other.
