  1. Ok, so I signed up and wrote a profile. I have no pictures up, yet. I have not looked on there very much for men who interest me, yet. I did notice someone who seems a bit exceptional. I had placed him in my favorites, but I didn't realize that he might be able see my profile right now. I already have a WINK from him. He doesn't know what I look like, so that is actually a little flattering. Well, unless he WINKS at everyone. This will be interesting.
  2. I've ALREADY celebrated my birthday with my family and friends. This is a fun skydiving summer party, more than anything. If it was only for my birthday, I would have it somewhere else.
  3. BAWAAAAHAAAAA!!!!!!! Geez...more PMs today. To answer some questions, I do not have any problem getting asked out by quality men. I just don't find myself giving people a shot, nor accepting dates from very easily. I guess that I am shy that way. I am considering using this kind of dating service as a filtering process for myself, more than anything. I know that I can be quite guarded around men, so I am thinking that this may be a way for myself to actually consider saying "yes" to more possibilities in an environment in which I can have a little bit more control (at home by myself). I like the idea of writing back and forth, then speaikng on the phone, then maybe meeting face-to-face. I highly doubt that I will be meeting with many people at all in person because I know how particular I can be. We shall see what happens.
  4. I am happy on my own, trust me.
  5. I want to at least know WHO I am dealing with, my friend. I don't like it when people withhold information from me. That makes me not want to be friends, much less anything else, with that person. Honesty is key.
  6. I see. Thanks for the clarification, Mark. I don't want to make meeting "Mr. Right" a mission of mine. I can be happy, either way. Generally speaking, I am not the kind of person who needs a relationship or needs to be in love in order to feel complete. It's just that I have so much love to give, and I feel as though I have nobody to give it to right now. (At least, not the right person.)
  7. That sounds horrible and exactly the opposite of what I am looking for in someone. I really am a one-man type of woman, and I am only interested in a one-woman type of man. I don't think that I would want to go through that other process.
  8. Sorry about the PM thing. That just makes me feel a little uncomfortable, although I know that you're joking! I meet and have pretty good chemistry with a good number of quality men in real life. They are wonderful people, but they just are not right for me. I tend to place most men into this "friendship" zone, and I don't really think of them as anything more, than a friend with good chemistry. If I am attracted to someone enough to have it go beyond a friendship, that is very, very rare. It just doesn't seem to happen very easily to me. I would rather be alone, than not content.
  9. Thank you, Dave, and everyone else. Sometimes, I just feel so overwhelmed by men, and that leads to me being guarded.
  10. Thanks, Keith. I think that I'll keep my lovelife more private, but I'll let you know, if I meet someone special. Btw, I'm logging off for a little while. (I suddenly have a lot of PMs.) I would rather see posts reply to this thread, as opposed to private messages. Thanks, guys.
  11. Yes, everyone always thinks that I'm taken. I WAS very taken for a long time because I was in a serious relationship. I'm not in that relationship any more. I became single back in October.
  12. This is an awkward thing to reveal, but I am considering joining this site. I am wondering if Match.com might be a bit impersonal,though. I honestly feel that people either have magic/chemistry in person, or they don't. Does anyone here have any experiences with this site that they'd like to share? Pros or Cons?
  13. Toga Party (toga optional) at Skydive Elsinore on Saturday, June 24th, 2006 after sunset! Skydive during the day and stay for the party at night. DJ Moo will be spinning for us. There will be a beer keg and food, so join in on the fun. Check it out!
  14. Whoops...I apologize for bringing the thread down to that level.
  15. Good sex with someone with whom you are in love.
  16. How many men that size have you run across in this sport? I am only agreeing that strength is a factor. (Oh, and yes, there are 250 lb. brutes out there.) Hahahaha...that's hilarious. I don't know many people of around my size, who do 4-way. Ron, I fly with whomever is the better flyer for myself to fly with. That is often times larger men, and I am asked to fly with people, not based on my gender or size, but based on my ability and theirs. I want to be able to fly with anyone. That means that I need to continously work on my strength. You may not have to notice or deal with this because you are not as small as I am. That is all that I am saying. Strength is a factor that seems to be very important in 4-way.
  17. AA, I really can appreciate what you have written, especially since you have so much experience in competitive 4-Way. Personally, I am beginning to learn more advanced blocks and am often learning to fly blocks with men who are much bigger than I am, like GQ_jumper. I am so glad to hear someone in the know state that good, fast (not that I'm THAT fast, yet) 4-Way has a lot to do with strength, as well as skill. As a tiny person (5 ft and 95ish lbs.), who has always been considered very strong for her size, I feel like I need to continuously work on/improve my overall strength during 4-way, more than anything else. This is especially true with blocks. Btw, I fly Point, as well. Anyway, I wanted to say that it's been interesting to read this discussion. It makes so much sense. Thanks!
  18. Ahahahaa...I was ashamed, as well, at first.
  19. Prayer and good wishes sent to you and to your dog, Jason. I hope that everything turns out ok.

  21. Here is a picture of myself amongst many loved ones taken by a relative during my summer Christmas this last year.
  22. i am female, 35 and currently single. I give no excuses for being single. It is what it is. For the most part, I am content with myself and can find my own happiness. My life is rich with my friends and family. If someone comes along who makes me feel the magic, and I do the same for him, then good. That will be the icing on the cake.
  23. Woohoo...I get a birthday week! Thanks, guys!
