Blinds Dates
A Quick Look...

Here are intriguing options...

• Adult Chat Rooms - Pick a room by geographic region or by topic of interest. Try the Cybersex room, or the Cyberfantasy room, or the Webcam Fun Room (yow!). If you're new, the Lobby is a great place to get started. There's always chatters ready to play 24/7, so jump in and join the festivities! Easy to navigate, lots of fun.

• I Shoot Myself is an erotic, web-based, self-portraiture project, where women from around the world submit a series of digital photographs that they have shot of themselves naked. The resulting unique collection of images is amazingly diverse, exciting and refreshing raw. It's performance art (or is it porn? you decide), it's fun, it's hot, and it's Reality. And, it's updated every day. Don't miss the tour, it's a rare treat.

From Dorothy
Mine wasn't desperate. I was in a comfortable relationship at the time. Some friends set us up. After spending the evening in his company (among friends) I couldn't have picked him out of a crowd because I was too nervous to look at his face. Why nervous? Because of the electrical charge I got when I took that first look at him. I went home that evening and told my boyfriend that I had just met the man I wanted to marry. And about six weeks later, I did. That was over 22 years ago.

I'm all for blind dates.

From Debbie
I have been out of the dating scene for quite some time and stepping in again at 41 (my birthday was two weeks ago) is at times humourous/fun and at other times frustrating. None of my blind dates have turned into anything..but in hindsight it's been good re-learning experience..it's affirming to know that men attempting to get back into the dating scene in their 40's share some of the same feelings that i do..Some of it is fun. One time i went out with a man who turned out to be a devout Baptist - I am a Unitarian . In spite of it we were laughing about our obvious differences..

From Suze
Blind dates can be great fun. I married one. Lasted 30 years, then it went to hell.

I've been on several blind dates arranged by friends since my divorce 5 years ago. I guess some might see it as being desperate. I'm not and maybe that's projected. If you feel that way, it could telegraph. I have learned, however, which of my friends really knows what I hope for in a date, a relationship, and my blind dates have been the kind of persons I felt good about being with. The one time I accepted a blind date from an acquaintance it didn't feel good from the moment we laid eyes on each other. Both of us finally had a private moment, said as much, and split, leaving some surprised matchmakers in the restaurant! *laughing* So, I can let someone else take the matchmaker role from time to time, but I make my own blind dates best of all. If you want to meet someone, have you tried online personals? Lots of people are meeting that way. Relationships are just as iffy as pre-Internet days, but you also have a "safe" way to meet people and get some of the important stuff discussed early on. The real date is almost anticlimactice in that scenario.

From Penfold
I went ahead and had the blind date and it was actually very good. It seemed we had a lot of things in common and it progressed surprising well and a little chemistry went a long way. I was happy that I finally took that step into the breach.

Unfortunately all pluses have a minus and as things were progressing quite well for a while all of a sudden a change of direction from her side of things. The old "I don't think this is going to go anywhere and let's just be friends." came into effect.

So the bottom line is if you trust the person arranging the date then give it a try. You never know something may come out of it. As to blind dates being a sign of desperation I am still undecided. Further research is needed.
