Every Saturday, we’ll be posting a new illustration by David Lester. The Mecca Normal guitarist is visually documenting people, places and events from his band’s 27-year run, with text by vocalist Jean Smith.
[b]Please note above: friends.[/b] Nothing to do with dating or relationship, but this website doesn’t have an option for the intention of friendship. Friends and yet, I’m not really in need of more friends, but friends is the only viable way for me to begin anything more than friends, so “friends” it is.
[b]Vancouver only. Single men only.[/b]
If a man had a good affect on me, and if me being in his life resulted in a happier time overall, then that’s worth exploring.
Photos: Oh, I suppose if I I had selected “relationship” I might feel that I’m pushing the boundaries by including photos from Yearbookyourself.com, but hey, I’m not. This is not “friends with benefits” or anything like that. This is: meet, connect, get to know and see if anything develops. I’m done with starting romances with random men I do not know and then finding out they are “not people I want to be involved with.” I trust too much in the beginning, giving people more credit than I should before I know them. I suspect this is happening a lot online, and this will change. In reading women’s profiles here, I’m noticing the criteria is tightening up, the word “trustworthy” is coming up regularly. Women are understanding and responding to the abuse of this system. Likely the men are, too, but I think men are more covert in their expression of such trends. There’s always trouble when you have to invent yourself.
I really don’t think the serious relationship I will ultimately form will arise from this website, so I figure I may as well have fun being here. Being myself, like. All in all, this is very boring place to be. As a writer, it is always a challenge writing here. It’s my least favourite destination for my writing because of the very general readership who are here to accomplish a nearly impossible task using writing and reading, whether they enjoy these applications of language or not. It’s a tough room, as they say. It is understandable that people tend to imitate what is already here (walk on beach), but this tends to make this site (and life) even more boring.
I’m single. I live happily alone, enjoying a simple life. I like what can come from trusting a trustworthy person. Conversation is a way to learn, but deception screws it all up. Preferring solitude to less than stellar associations results in, well, solitude.
It hasn’t worked for me to approach online dating as a way to initiate a viable partnership. At this juncture, a relationship is The Last Thing On My Mind. If you think I’m wasting Your Time, we’re not a match. If you appreciate ladders, walls, red carpets, lakes, well, we’re probably still not a match. I may well be matchless.
