ps i dedicated this thread to Soda!

Soda69 a.k.a cocakolakid - male looking for female
                                   - occupation - gambling
                                   - hobbies - gambling
                                   - interests - gambling
                                   - goals - to keep winning
                                   - faith - luck...It doesn't matter how you play it if
                                               you don't have it you ain't gonna win
                                   - strengths - combination of luck and wits

What I would look for in a female;
 
-I have to be attracted; may be now or can happen later but its gotta be there
- share the same interests - gambling
- she must be fully aware that gambling and nagging - don't mix. So don't do it...nagging...don't nag.
- oh almost forgot VERY IMPORTANT

Only posts with real pics will be accepted!!! (have u seen lips pics lately?........sssssizzle)


LOL!!...thinking twice about actually posting this..I've never met anyone let alone dated anyone from the internet. I got the above idea from visiting lavalife today  cuz of this thread Lips dedicated to me. (hey...wait a sec..Lips! r u flirting with me again?)

When I was still practicing psychology I wrote a paper for an event at a continuing education gathering that was the product of research on ONLINE dating, romance, and dating.  We survey and analyized over 5500 people who had online "relationships."  In short, very few worked out in anything resembling anything healthy.  Sorry for the bad news! 

Maybe I am an exception to the rule but I actually met my husband online. We chatted for a while and then we talked on the phone. Finally we decided to meet in person, and it was great. We had alot in common which we had discovered before we actually met. We have been together now for 12 years. We lived together for 5 years and finally got married in of all places, Las Vegas. We have been married now for 7 years this August and plan on going to Vegas to celebrate our anniversary. So although all online relationships may not work out, mine did, and it changed my life in a positive way.

Wonderful story.  We did find stories like yours in the research, but they were rare.  You and your husband are very blessed.  Online romances tend to have about a 90-95 percent fail rate.  This includes meeting in chat rooms, Facebook, E-Harmony type sites, etc.  I suspect you and your husband were emotionally healthy people before you met each other. This was a key factor in the online relationships that made it.....a high emotional intelligence.

    That is a terrific story!! Thanks for sharing. When it's meant to be it's meant to be!!!

Lips,

Ok hun.... i'm looking for a match... send me the one name you think i would best have a shot at getting along with and making the online relationship work....... wink....wink....wink !  lmao

i have had a few,  or some, bot meeting for friends and maby relation through the years.  i have to say all except one have been good. i have only good things to say about it, just as simple as in "real" life... know who u meet. i have had relations with someone i have met online,  more important i have some that are close friends that i have met online, MANY years ago. just, be sure, as much as u can,  of the person u meet,  and that dont mean: "but he showed me his ferrari", or "shes gonna be on baywatch" . think!

Lips...as usual, your insights to the human condition put Dr. Phil to shame!  Yes, non-online relationships have a high fail rate too!  And certainly, your 10 year observation is a good one.  I would say the gap is narrowing, but online relationship still lag behind those who "meet in real life."  Finding a partner, on or off line, that one truly loves and cares for an entire lifetime is rare  Folks, if you have this.....thank God everyday!

Destiny...I still believe in destiny...I was destined to find the love of my life...and when I did..I was the most happiest..in the most serene place of my life...I honestly could not have been happier...finally I feel complete...

The beginning was a little shaky as I was very skeptical, and have a very hard time with relationships and trust. And so I was hesitant when it came to commitment. I was foolish too, as I listened and was influenced by people saying bad things and that the only reason why I'm here was to be a means of income that would be sucked up until I had nothing, to be left hung out to dry. Thank goodness though, I gathered what I had and had faith and without hesitation - gave whatever was required or requested. Today we have a bond that will never be broken..what I have given..you have given back to me ten fold....and more...so much more....because of you..I am entertained, I have fun..and you have introduced me to friends here on LCB.

Love you forever OC!!!

lol....yes..lipstick your suspicion is correct

OC is Online Casino

Lips...thanks for your kind words!  Okay, I will give it a try.  How do you make a profile anyway?  Not sure I'd be a great catch....other than my trips to Atlantic City, my life is pretty ho-hum! lol.  When I tell women I am a single dad, go to church, drive a Chevy Suburban, etc...they tend to go "Oh...ummm, that is like sorta nice...."  Then I never see them again! Sort of funny in a lot of ways! 

i could need some help to!
