Too lazy to want to get to know someone more than superficially? This is why you need to stand out and make them step up their game. Insist on being treated politely and with respect with your own behaviour. Can't say it more plainly, LR.

That doesn't put good flirt lines in my head...
Guess who sounds like a tool making such idiotic generalizations over and over again?Quote:

Do I call you on your generalisations of good looking women?
Do I call you on your generalisations of men who catch good looking girls?
Do I call you on your fixation on physical appearance?
Please stop making it so easy for me.
Not quite 18-25, but I work with a LOAD of 22-27yos. They are all polite. And they are all in RELATIONSHIPS and have lots of FRIENDS.Quote:

What a cow. Don't even give her another thought but if you must:Quote:

Write her back and tell her "I didn't go either but I couldn't contact you because I was out and couldn't email you." lol
What excuse did she give, why doesn't she ever want to meet? and have you responded? If so what did you say?
I'm kind of pissed at myself because the way I responded to her messages explaining the cancel probably allows her to shift some blame onto me when I didn't do anything wrong (she never even volunteered to give her number).
"I thought you would check this first ... I'm sorry but the day just got way behind me and way behind ... This semester is just way to stressful and I don't think I can meet up... :/ sorry you drove out there though - hope traffic was not too bad ..." That is extremely presumptuous that I would check the site first over my phone. I left 5 hours early and she sent this about 2 hours before the meet; it takes about 1 and 10 minutes to even drive to the beach.
And then the last message she sent: "......I'm not trying to be rude - in sorry I didn't know you didnt have Internet on your phone ... In school and the day just was ridiculous ..it seems like yours was too . But I'm sorry it didnt work out .." Now she probably didn't learn anything about using phone numbers to call rather than risk someone going to a meet unaware that she cancelled. She probably thinks she did nothing wrong.
She said she doesn't want to meet now because school is so stressful..BS.
They are POLITE to YOU. You don't see what actually goes on in their relationships. They're just keeping up a facade of being good guys but they really are douchebags who cheat/abuse their girlfriends and friends.Quote:

Keep generalizin', pup.
I've witnessed this stuff firsthand. Empirical evidence, FTW.
You need to learn the difference between anecdotal and empirical evidence.
You also need to learn critical thinking.
Oops. Haven't had my caffeine fix yet..having withdrawal symptoms..
Don't you hate it when you need caffeine so badly that you can't get up to make coffee?
I wish it were that easy. My caffeine fix isn't through coffee, though: I have to bike to get an energy drink. I admit I was getting incredibly edgy in wanting it, not a good sign I know..I wonder how much I'd save both in health and money if I switched to coffee...Don't like the thought of bad breath and yellow teeth, on the other hand..
Omg...why are relationships so boring?
Oh stfu, you braggart. They're the essence of life, all that is worth living for! The only comfort in a disinterested cosmos...
She's not wanting to meet you. Move on LR. I called flake and WU 'cow', lol. Flaky cows are only good with a side dish of mashed potatoes. You can do better than this.
I gotta know WHY exactly she changed her mind..
She doesn't owe you a thing, LR. Get over yourself.
Well, I'm just more irritated at her STUPID decision to message me on the site rather than at least send a text. That is so typical of this generation. I looked real stupid in the coffee shop and heard a snide remark or two.
Look, she sent you a message from her computer. So what? Maybe she doesn't like to text. I certainly don't. Of course, I also warned my dates about this, but she is young and dumb. End of the day, it's your responsibility how you let people treat you.Quote:

As for the coffee shop, trust me, people care less than you think. Those snide remarks were almost certainly not directed at you. On the remote chance they were, then they are idiots to judge a stranger so, again, get over it. Put your energy into people who matter, LR.
Actually, they were directed at me. They walked past me and leaned over to make them. I still try to take SOME silver lining out of this (first time riding to the beach and got 50 pages into this novel).
Here's some more hilarity: I was FINALLY going to message a girl just now. I go to send a message; her inbox is FULL.
LOOOL. Those people who leaned over you are losers. Only really miserable people take pleasure in other people's disappointments.
So, try another girl. I gotta go. I'll check in on you later this weekend. Keep smiling, babe.
They're not losers: they're probably richer than I'll ever be AND she was almost certainly married. Two things I probably won't ever be. So who's the real loser?
Did you completely ignore the rest of what Indi said about them?! This:Quote:

And so what if that girl's inbox is full? Send a message to another girl.Quote:

[edit] Indi beat me to it :-).
Married and rich =/= happy. I speak from personal experience.Quote:

Again, noone who does what they did are happy. It's hateful. Unless you did something to antagonize them, in which case, then it might be karma.
1/ No way you biked 26 ****ing miles
2/How humiliating
3/lol
In retrospect, I now think that the girl was actually one of those fake profiles to trick users into spending money on what is otherwise a predominantly free site. Good, albeit only single, pic and no profile info. Could easily be a fake profile, I guess.Quote:

50 miles altogether. WITH double duty bike tires. That shit causes burning and fatigue.Quote:

Invest in some of those tires I sent you a link for. They help quite a bit.Quote:

Yeah but didn't you say they probably wouldn't survive goatheads?
Nothing I've ever seen will survive goat-heads. They are kevlar belted, so maybe. You could also put some slime in your tube.Quote:

My current tires do. Only cost $15 incl. labor to replace them.
What does this have to do with what I wrote in the post you quoted?Quote:

I stepped on that once. I thought I had a splinter in my foot, turned my shoe over and found one of those evil seeds embedded in the sole, went clean through my shoe.Quote:

I think I read that they are good snacks, surprisingly. But HELL to us bikers and apparently pedestrians (how do those bastards sneak into a shoe?).
Exactly. I told a friend about them (where both our kids rode their bikes) and he went over to look, wearing thick, hard-rubber soled sandals. They didn't go all the way through, but they COATED the bottom of his sandals, he had to stop and pick them out.Quote:
