I just had a conversation with an OKC gentleman
who messaged me out of the blue to inform me that vegans cannot be overweight,

I should starve myself to the point of non-ovulation...wait for it.....to PREVENT HEALTH PROBLEMS.
-because my face is "so gorgeous", and I "only THINK" I'm happy being medically overweight.
Of course, he also let it slip that he thinks the entire psychiatric field is no more than snake oil salesmen.

It's going in my OKC Journal of Horrors.

While I'm ranting, why would a "casual hunter lol" message a vegan?

WHY, GOD?!

It happens every now and then.
There are a fairly big number of weirdos at those sites that try to approach women by making fun of them.(Ive never heard of a success story though).

The only thing you can do is hide him and hope that you arent contacted by anyone like him again.

It's all in brazilian portuguese; most of you probably won't understand. But looking at some profiles here, I think I'm beginning to understand my mistake: my profile is too long. Should I just leave it blank?

I was able to understand most of it and I dont see anything wrong with your profile.
IMO its not that long either.

is me: http://www.okcupid.com/profile/AV3rose

I've helped a number of people in the L&D forum with their profiles through okc, though I've never actually disclosed which wrongplanet member I am. Now you know. :D (...and knowing is half the battle!)

As for the people here who think they get less interest because their profiles are too long... that's probably not true. I've found anyone who is genuinely interested will likely read the whole thing, enjoy it, and use it as a basis to find something to talk to you about. I figure, if they aren't bored by your long profle, chances are you won't bore them in real life :wink:

@adriarose excellent profile. I don't know how to put things about myself so eloquently as you did. As for people being cruel your not alone. To bad it seems to go hand in hand the more gifted you are.

I think this thread brings good luck. I've received a "Hi, how are you" from a girl whom i gave five stars about 2 weeks ago.

My reply was "Fine. And you?", which will probably spoil my chances, but I'm feeling great right now.


Please, dear antisocial brain, don't make me do anything stupid.

The Ender series might win an award for best first book followed by piles of boring drivel.

No idea who the hot guy you refer to is.

What a good looking bunch of eligible aspies with awesome profiles! I'm not a member of the site, so I can't share mine, obviously. But, I did notice that Bethie has an "Aspergian" tab on her page, which links to (an underwhelming) half a dozen or so other profiles. I don't think I'd want to date outside of "our kind." How do you online dating folks feel about and handle the whole AS issue???

enders shadow is good if you like game, its set in battle school and tells you alot more about the school and the bean characters past. also has bean figuring out the secret of the game while ender is doing it. if you want an addictive first book followed by disapointing bizzareness,try dune. one of orson cards faves.

I liked Bean a lot.

Mentioning my AS, like some other less-than-common things I list about myself, is just my way of creating a filter:
I throw out all the gnarly stuff about me, and those who message me are (hypothetically) the ones who are willing to deal.

:D

Or maybe all the "gnarly stuff" is what those who message you find appealing. Never know... :wink:

I read Dune a long time ago, and very little of it remains in my memory. If it's the best in the series, I will now definitely not be investing my time in reading the sequels.
