Some of us are from California, but apparently they have social lives and donā€™t need to advertise themselves on the board. Nuts to them. šŸ˜› (Psst - page 5!) What does ā€œfluffierā€ mean? Iā€™m curious. ---

I actually use a couple of online dating services. Iā€™ve had some success in meeting people using them, but still havenā€™t come across ā€œherā€. Hereā€™s my profile from one of 'em. Oh, and Iā€™m in Calgary, just in case I strike anyoneā€™s fancy. Pic [here](http://members.shaw.ca/thewordsmith/bw.jpg). * * * Iā€™m doing this because Iā€™ve met all of my friendsā€™ friends, and even some of their friends. So, come one, come all. Wellā€¦come one. Me, in 100 letters or less: cheese - yum; spiders - eek; puppies - aww; bad drivers - grr; pro sports - zzz; sarcasm - hah. Family describe me as supportive and dependable. Friends describe me as funny and outgoing. Colleagues describe me as dedicated and insolent. Adversaries describe me as derisive and diplomatic. No real people were consulted in the crafting of the previous lists of qualities. Stuff I do or like: cooking; snowboarding; my houseplants; genealogy; absolutely any kind of music (limit the enthusiasm to almost none when it comes to country); reading anything, wine and microbrews; fine dining (and sometimes, not so fine); driving all night to have breakfast in another province (so far Manitoba has come out the winner, but I think Barkerville is next). Iā€™d like to meet a gal whoā€™s sweet, funny, sarcastic, feminine, intelligent, well-read, intuitive, loves her family, likes to dance. Sheā€™s optimistic w/o being Panglossian. She realizes that we both have friendships that existed before we met, and it is healthy and important to each of us that those friendships are maintained. Sheā€™ll hug you when she knows youā€™ve had a bad day. After her bad day, a hug may not fix things, but she welcomes it. She knows the difference between ā€œyouā€™reā€, ā€œyoreā€, and ā€œyourā€. She knows who she is and is very happy that way. She knows who she is and is very happy that way. She appreciates redundancy. She is interested in exploring the secrets of life. She laughs easily and often. Iggy Pop aside, she has a wonderful lust for life. Travel, food and wine, reading, and all things spontaneous are things that she enjoys. She is honest, a good communicator, willing to try new things, and excited about the new adventures that are ahead in life. She recycles her newspapers. * * * Oh, and my 101: 5ā€™6", 33 yrs, ā€œstandardā€ body type (read, could lose 10 pounds), self-employed, semi-retired, incredibly charming. ---

luluBahrain: Thatā€™s a reasonable explanation. I thought it meant there was some body hair situation going on. šŸ˜‰ ---

You know, Iā€™m forcing myself not to go to [hotornot.com](http://hotornot.com), because I know I will spend at least half an hour there, doing nothing but clicking on numbers. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/doper-dating-bulletin-board/187266.md?page=15)
