Age: perfection  
Sex: honey, I’m tired!  
State: confusion

Well, that’s what I used to say in my days of wandering about chat lines with people who kept saying “A/S/L d00dz! A/S/L, \*\*\*\*er!”

Now if I wanted to find a potential mate, I’d be a bit more creative and talk about other things.

Likes: moonlight walks, vegemite, shopping for bargains, sitting around stark naked and browsing the boards, cute fluffy stuff, health food stores, electronic gadgets, sappy 80s love songs, travel, mauve nail polish, discernment, sarcasm, solitude, silence, smiley faces.

Wants: Someone down-to-earth who fits no model of perfection, but is imbued with wisdom and discernment. Is okay with change, but doesn’t need to change everything all the time. Can tolerate a night just sitting around reading or listening to music.

Other: I am capable of typing in complete sentences; however, I simply wanted to express my ideas above.

What will happen: We will all meet the loves of our lives right here in this thread, after it gets more posts than the thread about LOTR and more than a million views!

Female, looking for male  
Central Jersey, but I’m looking to **G** et **O** ut, preferrably to PA (still looking for a job)

I Like: to read, geek, play with computers, square dance, sing, cuddle, pet my cats, go off on tangents, explore new places (especially used book stores), Pennsic (haven’t been for years, but still love it), outer space, how and why things work, history, and a number of other things . . . .

I want: someone with a broad range of interests who knows lots about at least a few things so they can tell ME about 'em, is willing to or likes to dance, likes to museum crawl, understands a bookaholic even if he isn’t one, and is willing to do the dishes when I cook (I love to cook, hate to clean)

While I’m familiar with the concept of A/S/L as it applies to chat rooms, I’m apparently old enough that, back when I did chat online (on multi-line BBS’s - no internet for me back then) nobody ever ran around asking “A/S/L?” Kids these days!

Age: 31  
Sex: Male
