Dating after surgery

I hear what you are saying but still wonder whether people go on there just to make fun of some of the ads?  Am I being paranoid in saying that?  Then again, what does that say about the person making fun of others, right?  Personally I think it is really brave to put an ad up like that, to take a chance in life.  That is the main difference between me before and after surgery, I am still afraid but I do things anyways.  It can be overwhelming but I am learning to live again.  I feel reborn and like anything is possible, and I am so grateful for this surgery.

Okcupid - I will look into that one.  I think waiting is really smart and not selfish at all.  Good for you!

I just had to let you know that I've checked out the OKcupid site and it seems to be quite a bit better than match!  The only down side I've found is I'm getting guys from all over, UK, TX, FL, etc...weirdos, yes?  I barely posted my profile on there and they were like posting messages about how beautiful my smile is??? The pic I posted is of me just this weekend after a day of paintballing for my son's birthday party, I'm wearing a baseball cap...I wouldn't consider it one of my best but I liked the way I looked in it and it's the most recent one I have....

Is there no way to set some sort of "filter" so you only receive messages from people within a certain distance from you? Just a thought.

DO IT! Life is too short to give a **** what other people think! If someone is into you, they'll be into you no matter what.

Green sleeved has a point!!!

Greensleeved oops 

I agree!

Thank you for the words of encouragement greensleeved. 

I have done some online dating and I don't post a picture.  I will email a picture to someone if I am interested in them.

Why are you worried about a boss or coworker seeing your picture, though?
