If you have a question about this talk, please contact Sam. There are two kinds of people from Craigslist when it comes to falling in love. Love at first sight or it takes you a while to know. I have been in love four times in my life. Each time it has been love at first sight. There is a powerful connection when I first see the person. I am completely drawn to the man sometimes without even talking to him first. Craigslist Is it destiny? When I was in college I fell over heels with a guy but completely lost myself in him. He was everything to me which is not too healthy. Looking back 25 years later I know that I loved him very much but also that I shouldnt have depended on him as much as I did. When we broke up I was devastated. At the moment I am in love with the sweetest man but I am not consumed by the love. I was happy before I met him on my own. I can only describe him as the piece of the puzzle that was missing in my life. I am grounded and not out of control. There is a comfort level that is very peaceful. Then you have the people whom it takes 5 or so dates to know if they are even interested in dating the person. Slow and steady! They may have a gut feeling about the person but need to be cautious. This is not a bad thing at all. But, for me I need to stay true to my heart. I made the mistake about 6 years ago of dating a man who kind of grew on me. My gut said no but I wanted to give him a chance. He was very persistence and won me over but I was never in love with him. But, I did love him or so I thought. Again, he came into my life when my sister was diagnosed with breast cancer so I believe I just wanted to escape when what was really going on. Thank God I never married him. I moved in with him after a year of dating and 3 weeks later we broke up. It was the wrong thing to do but at the time I couldnt get out of my own way to see the truth. Which are you? If you are 5’7 but your Craigslist profile says 5’10 don’t you think women are going to notice when you meet? If the woman is 5’10 you can bet she will notice. It makes me think of an episode of Sex in the city when Samantha met a guy in a bar and when he stood up he was about 5”3. This just happened to my new co-worker last night. Great looking guy with a HUGE ego and a little body. Anyone from Craigslist who feels they have to lie is very insecure with who they are. So I suggest getting you act together before even thinking of putting a profile online. Not even thinks internet dating sites are a game. If youre a player than say your just looking to hook up. Im not attacking just the men because we all know women can play games just as well. There are so many single people from Craigslist just trying to meet the right person. All the lying does is disappoint, anger, and turn people off to internet dating. If youre into games go to Friend Finders and leave the nice people alone.
