She sounds like a nut & I like nuts & sluts. But one has to wonder why she can’t get a date the regular way?

But then her daughter looks 18. Maybe she is available?

If she isn’t joking then she is an eccentric person. She isn’t too bad looking, but… Bwahahahahaha, she has to be joking!

I am in shock!!! If I was a guy there is no chance in this world that I would call her! I…I…I’m speechless.

You can date _me_. Before you call, please remember to deposit $1000 in my checking account. 20% of the men who have made dates with me were upset upon meeting my husband and children.

I will contact you three(3) times before our date. Once by telephone, once by telepathy and once on the back of the canceled check you deposit into my checking account. We **will** have a good time when we meet.

Make sure that there is a reservation for 5 at the restaurant of my choice, as my husband and children must eat also. I expect flowers, chocolate and witty conversation. You can expect a full evening in my presence. Do not look at my daughter. If you do, you will revoke all past agreements and must leave the restaurant immediately.

Although I am not guarenteeing anything, sex is a possibility the night of our date, however you are not invited, not even to watch. My husband’s wishes must take precident over yours.

“I had three divorces in three and a half years, the last being in 1986.”

This woman is so obsessed that she even posts the e-mails she gets telling her to get professional help!

I wonder how many of her respondents are in prison?  
But mostly I wonder what her children are like and what they’ve been through.

**Biggirl** : LOL!

What I found ironic: she gives out her PHONE NUMBER, but won’t give out her e-mail, because of e-mail harassment…  
While I’m sure it’s her voice mail, wouldn’t she also get harassment there?

This woman seriously needs help. Maybe, after a couple of years of talk therapy and drug therapy (can you say “Selective Seratonin Re-uptake Inhibitor?”), she might be ready to take on a relationship. But any man foolish to take on a relationship with her is asking for nothing but chaos and mental abuse. Run away. Quickly!

It truly is. I would’ve expected something much closer to three-thirds. I guess for some guys it’s easier to climb out the restroom window halfway through the meal than to just say, “No, thanks, I’m shampooing the cat tonight.”

And look at us! Smirking contemptuously at this poor miserable utterly misguided woman. How haughty. Oh, fine. I looked at the page and laughed my ass off.

I must say, though, that in this day and age of “the Rules” and technological overkill run rampant, it is nice to know there are some people out there who aren’t beating around the bush.

Well. Hasn’t anybody actually tried to call her? Has Cecil taught us nothing about the importance of experimentation and empirical evidence in the search for the truth?

708-687-6787

I’d do it myself but I don’t think she’d talk to a chick. (I mean I don’t have the balls.)

Well, I was going to say it _has_ to be a joke, but after what happened to me in the father’s manifesto thread, where I just could not believe there would be people like that and it turned out there are and they are serious…

So, I will assume for a moment that the site is not a joke. That woman is totally and absolutely f\*\*\*ing nuts. The whole thing is scary. I _hope_ it’s a joke.

It also reminds me of the thread about the German woman who was married to a wall. Some people thought it was a joke, some people thought she was serious,

The world is full of weird people.

Have you guys seen her [Advice, Criticism, and Mixed Comments](http://members.aol.com/_ht_a/mary1777/emailmixed.htm) page? Read it-- the reactions are interesting.

Check out the message from the psychologist/psychiatrist who wants to study her. It’s about three-quarters of the way down, and dated 1/26/00.

I wonder if we can get one of the Dopers in her area to set up the date, make the requisite 3 calls, and then stand her up. Or even better, go through with the surely hellish experience. I’d be willing to put a fin toward the mandatory “gift” if we were promised a full report.

If you didn’t know, I’m a female, but thought I’d call her anyway. Wouldn’t hurt to ask if she’s for real.

An answering machine came on.

The message said that the caller is not allowed to leave a message, but to keep calling until he reaches her.

Her voice was low and soft - sounded pretty drugged out. She also appears that she sleeps from evening to afternoon every day.

She’s a wacky, wacky lady. Gents, please know that all the ladies aren’t like this.

You know, I can think of a Doper that would be PERFECT for her.

I was thinking of the same site, jesuslynch.

It would be fun to put the two of them in a locked room and see who comes out with the collar on.
