I am always so aware of my height (5'1" and like 115 lbs) because I know I would be easy to kidnap/snatch/whatever. I suppose I am kind of paranoid about it. I've had quite a few men use their height/weight advantage over me (Also comments like "Yeah, you'd be easy to kidnap! I could just pick you up and carry you…

THIS IS GENIUS.

I thought it looked pretty cool as well!

Totally with you there. I find him utterly adorable and his CD has a place of honor in the cd drive of my car...

Not even going to lie - I saw it and went "THAT IS MINE!"

THIS. My father died suddenly and I would give anything to have some notes like this - my father was naturally very closed-lipped and didn't really say how he felt much, so they'd be doubly special.

I left my abusive ex-bf in August. He texted me every two weeks (or more), until finally by December I'd had enough and blocked him. I also blocked him on facebook. I guess I (naively) hoped he'd give up after MONTHS of no contact.

Me too.

After a time I devised a way to tell if it was a date or not by asking Dude I was with if he wanted to split the bill. A resounding yes meant it was NOT a date while a no usually meant that it was. The no and intensity at which it was said could also be gauged to determine whether or not Dude would actually call when…

This should be out of the greys. Seriously.

THIS. So much. It has happened to me so much at this point, that now whenever a guy wants to "hang out" I end up spending the whole time suspiciously watching for some signal that he thinks it is something more than "hanging out".

I was going to say the same thing!

For the first week I had my dating profile on OKC up, I actually tried to send out a nice rejections if I wasn't interested in a guy's well-written thoughtful message (usually something along the lines of "Thanks for your interest. You seem like a really nice guy, but I think we're looking for different things. I wish…

I had my OKC profile up for about 2-3 weeks before I became completely exhausted trying to answer all the messages - and they weren't from clearing incompatible/awful guys either (though I did get a couple of those). First off, I would get about 10 new messages a day - and then I would also have to reply to the…

Sometimes it feels like you're just picking the flavor of sexism you're most comfortable with. Would you like some casual sexism or benevolent sexism? Some sexism with a side of Psychology Today quotations or Charlie Sheen quotations? Sometimes it feels useless.

Ugh, reading that just made me so angry.

Er... embarrassingly enough - no. I usually put things in the microwave and then walk away until it starts beeping.

The same thing happened to me! The first time I tried OKC I went on two dates, then deactivated it (commitment phobia - the guys I went out with were DESPERATE for a relationship, and it was too terrifying for me at the time). The second time, I got upwards of 10+ messages a day and it was so time consuming to log in…

No. I feel the same way.

Okay, I have to know - why do you never put potato peels down the disposal? WHAT HAPPENS?
