Should I join a dating service?

I met a girl through Yahoo! Personals once...she turned out to be be a "crazy bitch" her words not mine. :(
 
Thanks guys! :D And yeah trampledamage you're right, it's been a really big step just getting to the point to have the guts to do this. That in itself is a victory.

And no Corporal Clegg, she hasn't called yet :lol: I'm just happy if she calls, and I'm not expecting her to throw herself on the phone. Even if she is really intrested she might be worried that I would think she was weird for calling really quickly, seeing as I played it quite cool and relaxed thus far.

But as said, just happy if she calls :)
 
Might as well. It's just another way of meeting someone. There's much less of a stigma attached to it than there was ten or fifteen years ago. I met my wife on one. I won't say which one. Okay, it was adult friend finder. :guffaw:
 
Finally, a topic about asking a girl out, where the guy actually asks the girl out in the end! I am so happy for you, Emher. Well done! :D
 
I met my current girlfriend on OKCupid.com

Another friend of mine met her boyfriend on it.

Cool site. and free.

I find OkCupid to be as bad as any others. Filled with people who state in their profiles that they have no interest in dating anyone (this despite the fact that they went to the trouble of creating said profile, uploading pictures and answering the questions that creates the matching percentages) and just want friends. Or people who already have a partner and are supposedly not looking for anything. Or people who are so ashamed they are on a dating site in the first place that they refuse to call it that and refer to it as a "social" site.

Get rid of them and theres hardly any one else on there.
 
Okay, I'm starting to freak out a bit since she hasn't called. Just a bit, deep down mentally. Even though I know I shouldn't. I guess it doesn't help that I've had foot pain for the last three days and I've been pretty much confined to my apartment. Gives you a lot of time to think.
 
You need to go to the store and talk to her some more, when you feel up to it. She might not feel comfortable calling you. You can suggest something more specific.
 
The grape is wise. He's dead on on this one. It's like he read my mind. I may have to erect better barriers...:eek:

That would have to be tomorrow then, leaving town for work on wednesday morning until friday night. Though I doubt it matters, I'm pretty sure she has the late shift until friday night anyway so anything agreed upon would be in the weekend anyways.

I just sort of feel like I'm watching water boil. And I know that if I just relax and turn my back the water will boil, but I want to make sure before I give up.
Or you could go look for some other lovely ladies! Don't get too attached early on.
I know! But I really have a good feeling about this girl. Agh I suck at this! :scream:

Actually I connected pretty well with another cute girl at the same store this weekend, and I did it without really trying since I already asked the other girl out (who wasn't working that night by the way). So I probably have it in me to try again, but I definetly don't want to be the guy that goes around asking all the girls in the store out.

And as said, not giving up quite yet.

She wasn't there tonight, so I'll have to wait or hope that she calls before I meet her next time. And I was all fired up and all :/
