You should be careful with john. Housemate relationships can end really badly. If you do decide to date, kick him out and get someone new in. He can always move back in a few months later if you get on well.

That was quite a short stint with the online dating. I'm glad you figured out it's not for you. It's awesome to have a friend across the street, too. Especially one with a super fast computer.

That's a pretty reasonable short-list, all things considered. I think most guys 23-30 do not frequent online dating sites for anything but one thing. Marriage.

You will do fine out in the real world, if you can tear yourself away from Fable!

Get an X-Box. I'll send you my Fable, I beat it already, and I probably won't play it again. Especially if I sold it to you. Very unlikely I would at that point.

In college, her next partner may very well break up with her to be WITH John.

Man, I so do not miss college.

Adult life isn't BETTER than college, just different. College has it's own thrills. Grad school is not much of a bump up. When you get a career going, there's when you're going to be thrown to the wolves.

Don't worry, though, you'll be fine. Just remember - nobody alive ever died.

I gotta admit, I was holding up the "go John" banner myself. But you know best, and, well, like Tova said, it's pretty good to have a guy best friend.

Now I'll have to scratch out the name on this damn banner till you find someone else...lol!

I said I wasn't "on the hunt", which I was and am not. I got on the online dating scene to meet people (preferably local) but met Bobo instead. I'm getting away form the online scene because of the aforementioned reasons. This was my second try, but I didn't like it much better than the first. Oh well. I'm not terribly worried about it.



Like I said, as long as there are new games... And, I am starting a new job -- a real 9-5, steady paycheck job. Does that count for anything?



You have the option of listing them as turn ons, turn offs, or no opinion. But yes, there are guys out there who put them down as turn offs. And then they wink at me... they really need a clue. But yes, Gideon, as usual, you were right. You're pretty good at calling human nature.



Maybe I'll meet him at the release party for the last book. (and yes, I have tickets to a release party at a bookstore.)



I don't think you were the only one. I'm sure he'll find all of this amusing... if I ever tell him about it. He knows I've talked about him, and that I posted his video and picture... but I don't think I'll tell him about this.

Actually, I did tell him. He thought it was funny. He asked how the blogging went, and I told him that there were "Go John" banners... hehehe
