| Review: | I've changed. Now I am not going to pretend I am not a "loser" by society standards. I am currently unemployed and enjoying my time after years of the crappiest job ever :P ..I am on a deserved break. Also I do not drive. But that END my list of baggage and issues, the end, that's it. I am 29, pretty attractive. Real pics, honest, open, genuine, drug free, alcohol free, child free, not frigid and honestly there to meet love. I support myself pretty well and take care of my looks. I can hold a conversation and do not have a fake bone in my body. I did find many men with good jobs, nice cars, good looks (who cares).. What lies underneath is horrible issues. He can shove his superficial qualities, because I'm out! They all had more than one of these: -Anger problems. -Limp penis. -Massive debt. -Lies on their profiles. -Problems with drugs/alcohol. -Bad parenting. -Woman haters. -Illiterates (someone wrote their profile for them). -Chickens. -Users, you know, pretend to love you for sex. -talk lke ths yo, git bck two me -GREENER PASTURES SYNDROME OF THE LIKES YOU'VE NEVER SEEN! I KNOW am not a REAL loser like these people I have met and have got burned by. I met a man who drove a new car and was a nurse, is he a loser? ...He used me to fix his computer then held my stuff for ransom, calling in a nasty tone, hammered, telling me I will get it back when he feels like it, is he a loser now? I have changed so much! There is a test site where you can do personality tests. Before POF my dating personality was a kind and gentle, commitment girl.. I retook the test after a couple years of POF and now I am "The Sudden Disappearance". The test doesn't know what I've been through lol.. I only recommend it because if you do not take it seriously, unlike other sites, people will actually MEET. Comments [ 1 ] |

| Review: | Take A Stand! Hail to the almighty Marcus who sits in his Canadian apartment making life judgments on people he knows nothing about, nor does he care to know so. Unfortunately for us here in the United States all we can do is succumb to his Jack Booted Thuggery because he feels no moral obligation to do the right thing by people. According to articles on the net, here is a man who actually takes pride in the fact that he rakes in thousands of dollars daily from Google and other advertisers. He uses the backs of the wretched masses of people looking for love. Articles on the net state he brags about not having a staff to handle any issues or problems. Is it that he in his God like persona can handle it all? He presses that “Delete this profile button” quicker than an evil despot says get rid of them all. He does not care if you are guilty or innocent. When he gets up in the morning, he does not smell the coffee, all he has is the sweet smell of money up his nose. Have you got the “This will be your only warning” message? Did you wake up to find you were banished to the phantom zone without the benefit of trial, or an understanding of what you did to deserve such immoral arrogant treatment? “I AM THE ALMIGHTY MARCUS AND CAN CENSOR YOU ANYTIME I CHOOSE TO”! This man actually believes he can do “anything” he wants to people. Perhaps its time a class action law suit was filed against him in the Canadian courts or by proxy through the Federal Courts here in the United States? Perhaps we should find a way to boycott Google. After all, they are the ones feeding his grandiose idea he is untouchable. Take A Stand Against Jack Booted Thugs! Comments [ 0 ] |

| Review: | WHO ARE YOU? I am a single educated women and former model. I posted a profile with POF. I begin talking to two men. One sent me an email stating how great I looked-I deleted it after reading his profile. He had no car and went on in 2-3 paragraphs explaining why he did not have a car. The reason: he is her in this country illegially. He walks where he needs to go. How is he suppose to pick up a girl for a date? Use the local bus system? The other guy: I talked to on POF for over three years. Never talked by phone or in person. Just chatted on the POF and via email. He was a good looking character according to his POF photo. Had lots of POF favorite followers. This guy when by two last names from Southern Califoria. He sent me picks of two babies he said he adopted. I had moved out of state and he wanted a recent pic of me. I sent one of me coming off the Sundance Ski lift....this was not "sexy" I assume...as he closed his POF and email acct. and left planet Earth. I am very slow.......and not in a hurry to meet a date....I like information...to verify....nothing lost here....except like "the investigator" states but.......precious time! Comments [ 0 ] |

| Review: | Nightmare I was a member of POF for a couple of years and also participated in the forums, where I met some genuinely nice people. However, late last year I started seriously corresponding with one forum member who gave the impression and appreance as well rounded crafsman and musician, his name was Akimmbo. After a couple of weeks of writing back and forth I said we should meet and he was very hesitate and said he thought it would be very romantic if we waited until Christmas, I thought it was odd, I even offered to fly down to where he lived, but no he wanted to wait. We continued to correspond for the next two months, which in hindsight was very unwise on my part, but I did. Finally Christmas arrived and the person I met was not the person in the pictures and I know that a look of shock was on my face because he asked if he looked like his picture and in being too stunned to answer, I said yes. In his pictures he was a tall man with golden hair and beautiful blue eyes. Well the blues were true, the man who showed up was short, with long hair (as in extensions) except for the top of his head which was completely bald, which I didn’t know because he always wears a hat or some how covers his head. If that wasn’t bad enough, the only way I can describe him is as a dirty old hippy who smelled very musty and his facial hair was so long that he would chew on his moustache. During his visit there were so many horrific moments I was in shock and I couldn’t believe I had such a bad choice. Some of the highlights were: He didn’t flush the toliet, he lived in his car, he had beeen arrested a few times and he had been put in a mental institution and it goes on and on. The reason I am telling this story is because, POF is now going to have an option where you can pay. The only thing you get for your money is a gold star next to your name. I wrote in forums that if the are going to charge they need to carefully screen their members so people like Akimmbo cannot pull his hoax on other women, at the very least no photo shopped pictures should be allowed. As I said I was a member for a few years, but after the nightmare with Akimmbo, I could not longer stomach being on POF and I quit. Comments [ 1 ] |
