I don’t need to be “emotionally rescued” or anything, but I always encourage people to tell me how great I am. So have at it. Compliment me early, compliment me often. 🙂 ---

SingleDad: mate, you got a high standard to live up to. I read through the threads featuring Mullinator, Cheffie, and RoryG, and I am in awe as to their originality and wit; not to mention the amazing response from almost all of the recipients. IIRC, PurpleBear was most impressed - she all but proposed on the spot.Can you achieve the high standard of recipient appreciation that has preceded you? Good luck and good writing fella - I think you’re gonna need it! ---

I’m going to have to pass on this one. After I read the post he wrote in B-line’s thread, I melted into a puddle on the floor, and the cats are looking at me funny. :o God only knows what would happen if he wrote something for me specifically. ---

Me! Like Valerie, I don’t need “emotionally rescued,” but I’m smart enough not to pass up a chance like this when I see it. ---

> [@](#): > > SingleDad: mate, you got a high standard to live up to. I read through the threads featuring Mullinator, Cheffie, and RoryG, and I am in awe as to their originality and wit I can’t begin to approach the poetry and talent of those literary giants; I’m an intellectual prose type guy. Anyone who asks here will have to settle for a compliment; I can make up for my lack of poetic ability only with sincerity and honesty. I am, BTW, a good and sympathetic listener (two ears, no waiting). If you do want to discuss an important emotional issue, find me on ICQ (#423201). Since search and profiles don’t seem to be working, I’ll have to turn my attention only to those who’ve asked that I know relatively well. I will try to get to know the rest through your writing here later tonight. **Democritus:** You’re a cool dude. I love your sense of humor; you’ve made me snork many a time over on IRC. Plus I have to like a guy who’s first post was about a book I admire deeply. **Falcon:** I don’t yet know you as well I would like, but time will fix that lack. I loved your web site, and it was wonderful to see the pictures you posted of many of the Dopers. I will be exploring your site more fully in the days to come, and getting to know you on the channel. You’re a cutie, BTW: You seem very confident and self-assured, both of which are attractive qualities. **zyada:** I know you didn’t ask but you’re SOL! 😉 I also don’t know you very well, but I have a wonderful fantasy of you: I think of you as someone who’s beauty and erotic quality emanate from within; your inner beauty pours out through your eyes and smile, your very skin, and transcends ordinary external beauty to something breathtakingly magical. As I said, I am looking forward to getting to know all of you better through your writing here, both from the past and in the future. ---

Um . . . could I have one? Did I tell you that I think you’re _really_ sweet for using my response as a sig? ---

I agree with TVeblen, you rock 🙂 You haven’t revealed much of yourself on the boards, but I would say you’re a straight-ahead, no bullshit kind of person. That’s high praise in my book; I’m much the same way. ---

SingleDad, there you are! Where have you been hiding at? I see that you don’t know me that well yet. Hmmmmm. What can I tell you about myself? I love people, cats, pets, teddy bears and other assorted stuffed critters, my kids, my hubby, my friends are some of my best treasures. I love sunrises, sunsets, the ocean, long walks, hugs, kisses of all kinds, I love to touch people when I’m talking with them. Hmmmmm. I could go on and on. I tend to have very strong feelings about some things, and I love to talk and tell anyone who will listen what I think. My closest friends tell me that I am a great friend; don’t know about that, but I try. :o Howzat for a start? ---

**phouka:** I’m embarassed that you demonstrated that you know me better than I know you. But I am remedying that lack. I checked out your web sites. Breakup Girl is a scream! Your writing is excellent. Your short story technique is very polished; your descriptions are vivid and captivating, your characterization is right on and your plotting is tight and focused. I sense that you might have some relationship issues. Rest assured, some men start out nice and _stay_ nice, and will keep their fingers out of your skull. Give me a yell sometime on #straightdope or on ICQ. I have a few of my own relationship stories to tell. Love the Art Deco on your stories site, too! ---

Singledad, You can cast copious compliments upon me anytime. I’ve read a few of your ‘proses’, and they are pretty durn good. My only question is “why are you still Single Dad?” with that kind of eloquence? My webpage is linked below if you need further details of me. 😃 ---

Relationship problems? You mean, just because the three short stories I’ve posted all involve women murdering their boyfriends? Whyever would you say that? 😕 Anyways, I’m wiggling happily that you liked my site. I’m going to have to hook up with ICQ somehow so we can chat in realtime. Thanks, SingleDad! ---

ahem… cough cough…What? Oh, no, I don’t feel ignored or anything. If I did, I’d just console myself with the fact that a few months ago I was voted “Sexiest Female Poster” and “Female w/ the Best Profile Picture.” Yep, I’m fine. My ego’s fine. Just because I replied way up toward the top, there’s no need respond, I guess. \*Hee hee hee. I got to guilt Singledad AND brag shamelessly in the same post. I love MPSIMS. \* ---

Val: You can’t guilt me. 😛 Phouka got bumped ahead of you because it’s much easier to to make an honest compliment on a stunning web site than it is to search through a year of posts to get a glimpse of your personality. But if you’re impatient, I _will_ say that your spelling, grammar and composition are excellent. :rolleyes: [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/ladies-getcha-some-lovin-from-singledad/18134.md?page=2)
