Well, eventually you are going to FUCK so why put it off? Is herpes going to disappear after a couple of weeks/months of dating?
How about tomorrow OB ?

sorry i couldn’t resist

Fap-fap-fap-fap-fap-fap – true luv in Hfx.
Just skip the date part
Go back from where you came and FUCK OFF!
You’re not going to spend all that time, money, energy and resources into dating someone, only to find out that they are an absolute dud in bed. Who has time for that crap??
So, you do the logical thing and shtup them first. That way, if they turn out to be a dynamo in the sack, then you’ll have no qualms about committing to the long term relationship thing.
Trust me…. I know what I’m talking about….

that has to be the classiest looking guy i have ever seen avast. If that’s you we should totally hook up.
Sadly no, that is not me. That is Frank Bonner, a.k.a. Herb Tarlek , sales manager for WKRP Radio in Cincinatti. Wheelin’ and dealin’ businessman by day, suave, debonair man-panther by night. Wise and well versed in the ways of lurve and a pretty snappy dresser to boot. A king among hairy chested, gold-chain sporting, polyester leisure suit wearing men from the days of patches on the elbows of your plaid blazer. Ah yes, some things just NEVER seem to go out of style. lol
And, not that I’m not flattered, Brandon but, a. I’m taken and, b. (forgive me for being presumptuous) I’m guessing by your name that you are a dude and, well, I’m not into dudes, dude. No offence. Just personal preference. Thanks for the offer just the same. 😉
Lol i’m not normally into it either but when you see a jacket and haircut like that who could possibly resist?
he also wore a classy white belt
As Doctor Johnny Fever said BBBBBOOOOOGGGGIIIIEEEEEE
and the belt alway matched the shoes 😉
Don’t listen to these guys OB, keep your standards high. I for one don’t put out on the first night that I meet someone, not on the first date either.
—–
“BOOOGGGIIIIEEEEEEEE”
—–
Actually, it was “Booger”, Victor.
The old station format forbade use of the word so Dr Fever used it on air as a signal of the new WKRP format.
And now you know, cause knowing is half the battle.

And that’s one to grow on.
IS “NORMALITY” NOW NORMAL?
I couldn’t believe it! When I read the title of this bitch I was blown away by the correct usage of the word. I had previously thought that the American malapropism “normalcy” (introduced by the American president Herbert Hoover if I’m not mistaken) had taken root.
A fast check in The American College Dictionary gives it as “normalcy” (wouldn’t yopu know it?) but the good old Concise Oxford has it right.
A pleasure as always.
Cheerio!

Don’t worry, there are plenty out there that wait it out before fucking others…
… Sometimes it’s even painfully sloooowwww.
I don’t fuck on the first date (or second, or third, or even fourth, etc…), but sometimes you just want to get the fucking show on the fucking road!
normality, what fucking rock have you been hiding under for the last 40 years or so? it’s a well established fact, fuck now, date later, if they are any good at all. and a lot depends on who gives the better blow jobs too. yep o.p., time to come out of your sheltered life. if you are a female, i can really help you out here.
Normality exists in the minds of decent people!
IMO, the 21st century has basically eraticated the kindness, common sence and courtesy of human beings. Tis illogical to think human.
The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. Or the one. – Spock
Some just like to have the dessert before the meal.
Believe it was Warren Harding, MM, who first dropped the malaprop.
I’ve got a question for the forum: do you think there might be a gram of truth in the assertion that Hali guys are fickle? Is it within the realm of possibility that the ratio of men to women has made men complacent?
I’m really interested in your opinion. I had three encounters with men in HRM last summer. Two were douches and one I liked but he never called me back. when I lived in Stowe, Vermont, there were so many guys to gals (tanned and good looking, too!) maybe we gals got spoiled…wondering if that has happened in Halifax?
xeno, i’m not fickle at all, short or tall, big or small, i’ll fuck anyone of you that wants it. how’s that for a straight from the cuff answer.if you want bashful, then pass me by, quickly.
and that is n.s.a., all the way.
^^ and here I thought you had such discerning taste.
Dating is for lesbians. But I’m with this bitcher. I’m all about a coupla free meals before the shaggin begins.
I don’t really count the dates to determine when to have sex with someone. It’s just whatever I feel like and what the boy feels like (which is usually horny). Some people, it takes me some time to be sexually attracted to and some people it’s quicker ;). I tried to have a one night stand a couple of times but it always turned into a relationship. One lasted for almost 2 years! To say that YOU MUST WAIT exactly 3 weeks or whatever, or else you have poor character is narrow-minded. I find it difficult to find someone that gets me all flustered and bothered, so when I do, I find it hard to resist. Why put off your mind being blown ’til tomorrow when you could do it today?
“…mind being blown.”
……yyyeaaaahh…that’s it….”Mind” (giggety)

Harding the crook or Hoover the failure. What’s the difference?
A pleasure as always.
Cheerio!
I would normally disagree with you Xeno, but the evidence stands against me. I know tons of guys who sleep around, and they get to pick and choose who to do it with, and never commit to a single one of ’em. Unbelievable! They don’t need to get into relationships when it’s sooo easy to get some Poon elsewhere.
I also think the majority of girls are picky and superficial, but they may be just the ones I’ve met. I guess they’d have to be a bit choosey when you have to pick from the douche bags that populate this city. I can’t even get the time of day from some girls!
I don’t have a set number of dates, either, Mel — I just know that I’m not going to feel comfortable fucking someone unless I get to know them fairly well. I’m always paranoid about ending up with a relationship based purely on sex. And I know that 4 dates probably isn’t going to cut it in the comfort department.
To paraphrase Groucho (again): I’d never want to be with a woman, who’d fuck a guy like me on the first date.
I guess it depends. One boy, we went on like 3 dates before we were banging with the lights on because I just felt so comfortable with him. But it’s not like we only talked on those 3 occasions, we would text (shuddup old people) constantly and I did know him for quite some time before we dated.
Isn’t that an old 80’s song?? “Banging With the Lights On” ??
If not, it damn well shoulda been!
http://www.thegtaplace.com/downloads/scree…
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I can’t imagine bumping uglies with someone before taking the time (read that more than 4 or 5 dates plus multi-texting) to find out if they are “sponge worthy”. I cringe at the thought of running into casual sex “exes” who, given enough time, have proven themselves to be someone I would NOT have chosen to sleep with, yet they now have memories of me and my “bits” in, ahem, full performance.
That’s why you go out on dates, to eventually have sex. Right? Why are people continually surprised when someone wants to fuck them after a date (1st or whatever)? Seems to be a gender thing. Me, being a guy, have never been insulted by a woman wanting to fuck after the first date.
bonjour chickpeasisbabe, missed ya http://4histemple.files.wordpress.com/2011…
Aww…thanks hon…life gets busier than normal sometimes but I should try to pop in here more than I have.
I guess that’s just how we’re different Oceanlady. I don’t ever regret having sex with someone, even if I don’t like them currently. I liked/loved them when we had sex, so I don’t see the problem with running into them years later.
Suckster, clearly, you are outstanding in any field!
SHITD, I don’t go on dates to have sex (eventually) I go on dates to see if I am compatible with the dude, or if I already know he is to enjoy his company.
Maybe it’s an age thing…I met up with some old friends a few weeks ago-one recently divorced, one widowed for 3 years and me. We laughed at that old song “when I was young/ I never needed anyone/ and makin’ love was just for fun/ those days are gone” because it is true–we were all, ah, selectively promiscuous in our 20s, yet we can’t imagine shagging someone on the first date today.
Mind you, I don’t want to become this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0D0zfB1l1x0
I don’t necessarily have issues with screwing someone on the first date, and given the guy, sometimes it’s damn hard NOT to… but, I’ve never had a successful relationship with anyone I’ve fucked quite early on, so I take a new approach and as impatient as I might be (I’ve always been an impatient person), there’s something comforting in taking things slow(er).
And just because you don’t have sex with someone, doesn’t mean there’s a lack of other ‘fun’ things you can do to/with them. 😉
That and I’m well worth waiting for.
my relationship started as a one night stand… we’ve been together for almost 3 years. didn’t go on a real date until almost 2 months into things
This is where I’ll be if anyone needs me: http://www.curtain-tracks.com/blog/wp-cont…

Whoa, PK! Classy Lady!

My Hook? Well, once I find the right bait I’ll let ya know ;D
hahahahaha depends on the hook….love that pk
The issue I have with 1 night stands is sexual history. I need to protect myself, and I do not think that after one meeting someone’s character can be adequately assessed. I do not know if he’s shagging Annie, Lucy or Mary down the road all at the same time, and for that matter he doesn’t know if I’m shagging Lucy, Mary or Annie. If you choose to have a one night stand, that is your prerogative, but I hope that the necessary precaution and testing is being done to save yourself headache in the future. Many people feel invincible to real dangers, but they exist. Even in a supposed monogamous relationship one partner could be fibbing and putting the other at risk, I understand this, but why play Russian Roulette if you don’t have to. (That is my opinion so fuck off if it doesn’t suit you).
It is possible to have one night stands with people you already knew though…
there are a plethora of situations…
I do not think that after one meeting someone’s character can be adequately assessed. To quote me. It is quite obvious which situation I am addressing.
yea, i knew my boy friend for 2 years before we started dating his best friend dated my sister for a bit… so we never got to know each other because of that. than we were at the same party one night and hit it off. got to have a real conversation an know each other more than oh your my sisters ex’s friend
You do realize, Francine, that no matter what your sexual history, all it takes is one romp in the sack with a carrier of disease and bam, you’re infected. Whereas someone could have hundreds of partners and be disease-free.
You can’t judge who is and isn’t disease-free by their ‘character.’
who cares how many people someone sleeps with as long as they’re safe and who cares if a relationship starts from a fling. it’s all personal choice and no one should be judged for what they do
“(That is my opinion so fuck off if it doesn’t suit you).”
opinions are like assholes… everyone’s got one.
unlike you, however, most people’s doesn’t have a big bug shoved way up there.
I shall now proceed with the fucking in the direction of ‘off’
No you are correct, disease free cannot be judged by character, but knowing someone’s character gives a barometer to their answers. In other words are they trustworthy and all that stuff. One romp is all it takes, I agree however for me I make sure to take the most allowable precaution so that after the fact it’s not left to shouda woulda coulda.
knowing someones character has nothing to do with it either. they could be amazing liars.
some are innocent amazing human beings and it unfortunately happened to them. you can’t judge if someone is diseased by who they are unless they tell you
You just repeated exactly what I just typed except in different words.
There’s no test for herpes and you can have the virus for quite some time before showing visible signs. So you could bang your longtime boyfriend for the first time who doesn’t even know he has it and there you go, apparently now you’re less than human.
you said someones character can be used as a barometer… no it can’t that’s what i said
Actually, I *can* tell someone’s character in just a few hours (one date). I have been practicing character judging for a long time, though!
IS “NORMALITY” NOW NORMAL? (II)
Well, all I can say is bravo to the bitcher for the correct use of the word as opposed to that ridiculous American “normalcy.” Now, the next abominable Americanism to combat is the use of “pled” as the past tense of “pleaded.” Doesn’t that just rot your socks?
A pleasure as always.
Cheerio!
Francine dear, fuck off.
Having a one-night stand does NOT equate with playing Russian Roulette.
Condoms, risk-reduction, even SM play can SIGNIFICANTLY reduce any risk of any STI, if not eliminate it.
I’m not certain what rock you find yourself under, but get up, get out and read some updated sexual health literature.
Darling, it’s 2012…!
when you build relationships with people are you not using their character as a barometer. If you say you aren’t then, what are you doing? How do you determine should stay in your life?
Don’t worry about answering. I do not care. Never did I say people who have one night stands are sub human, nor does the number of partners or what not you have matter. What was said was meant to explain why I do not partake in the practice. You can do what you choose! It’s a free world. As far as I know. + There are tests for herpes.
THE FORNICATION FOLLIES
Keep on fornicating, girls! Da question is, who goin’ be da champ?

Cheerio!
my husband and I started off as what I thought would be a one night stand. We were mild aqquaintences up to that point, but I never expected anything meaningful to develop out of our night, though the sex was amazing (and still is 2 kids and 6 years later). In the end, I think that if there is something real there, it won’t matter if you have sex on the 1st or the 21st date.
Seems I must be in the minority if I consider dates to be mainly for the company and companionship. If and when after-date sex happens seems completely irrelevant and would be a case-by-case consideration. Admittedly, it does seem… ungentlemanly… to have/demand sex on the first date.
I’d rather actually get to really know someone before “knowing” them in the biblical sense.
Then again, I’m not too fond of the idea of casual sex either. That might explain most of it.
Some might call that being judgmental, Xeno.
Francine, one cannot get tested for Herpes until they have an outbreak. You could have it your whole life and never get that outbreak. I’ve come to the conclusion that there’s no use worrying about it because there really is no way to protect yourself (condoms don’t fully protect you) or know your status until it’s too late.
That being said I don’t go around having unprotected sex with random women, I’m not saying that anyone should do that.
I agree that it takes more than a couple encounters to really judge someone’s character and that if you are looking for more than a lay it’s best to wait a little while before jumping in bed with someone, but there is no one size fits all rule. You can get screwed over by someone you’ve been married to for 20 years or someone you just met last week. Finding love and happiness or even a good fuck buddy is all about taking risks. Before you can really judge if something is going to work you have to have sex imo, so there’s really no way to avoid getting physical with someone who might turn out to be unworthy.

and also, OP, this is NOT a phenomenon specific to Halifax. Have you watched TV lately?
Like I said, Tommy, it took years of experience (including watching kids grow up and grow into tendencies I predicted) for me to get to be so good at judging people.
Of course, objects in the mirror are larger than they appear when drinking…;->
It takes longer to judge people on this forum than ftf, but I think I’ve got the numbers of the regulars…it’s all good, TJ!

Gosh Xeno, that’s fantastic. I’m sure it must have taken you years of experience to be so good at judging people to the point that you’ve got the numbers of the regulars on this forum and that it’s all good.
Clearly I can’t hold a candle to you on this score but, strangely Xeno, your number didn’t turn out to be all that good.
A pleasure as always.
Cheerio!
I, on the other hand, am a terrible judge of character. I tend to take people on face value until they prove otherwise or I learn a bit more about them. One date wouldn’t do it for me. I remember having a date with a lady who seemed quite nice, only to find out she must have been on her anti-psychotic medication that night. She was talking like some life-long commitment was in the offing in the weeks to follow so I moved to take a step back. She proceded to go off the deep end and turned fairly nasty. Didn’t see that coming after the first date.
Once went to hire a gent where I work. He seemed to have the background I was looking for and his references checked out. He had a good interview and, after mulling a few other candidates, I offered him the job. He seem happy and excited to start Monday. Monday rolls around, he doesn’t show up. I call, get voice mail, leave a message. A little later on in the day, called again, got voice mail, left a message. Was he confused about the day he was to start? Tuesday, nope, he doesn’t show. Call again, get his girlfriend (I guess) and she says he can’t come to the phone, I say I really need to speak to him. Then she gets upset with me saying that they got those messages but he has going through a lot personal problems lately. Huh? I wished them luck sorting out those problems but the position is off the table.
Both these people seemed sane upon first impression but, obviously, I missed something.
Wrong again, Moman.
“I’ve got your number” is a colloquialism meaning “I have sussed you out” or “I am hip to your trip” or whatever quaint expression you use to mean ‘I have taken your measure as a person.’
It is not a rating system (luckily for you!) so there are no physical numbers nor scaling involved. Yes, you are correct that you can’t hold a candle to me…
Finally, in regards to your ‘low score’ of Xenophilia: Looking at the caliber of bitchez who home to you like flies on a horse’s arsehole (an apt simile!) I can be only relieved to be excluded from their company.

Dear Thecaptain–
I’m still a little fuzzy on you as I originally confused you with Ivan Sonovabitch (O Captain, my captain!)
Moman: to paraphrase—”the true measure of a man is not how he behaves publicly, with the eyes of the world on him, but how he behaves privately when he is online with an anonymous screen name”
I wasn’t saying that to brag. Anyone with basic computer skills can go onto google and type in a screen name or email address. You all seem to love each other so it isn’t hard to look through a friends list to find other people.
You got that right puddi, except I’m not friends with anyone on here (at least I don’t think so).
Thanks Xeno! What an HONOR to be confused with the Great Col. Ivan! *Swoons* 😛
