What do I make of this? ("Will buy lunch someday...")

On that point, i dont disagree with you Vulpine. It is clearly a mens forum, though i've noticed most people dont seem to mind penkitten hanging out.

I cant identify with the women hating though. It just feels too much like double talk for us all to be focusing on gaming one women after the next, then turning right around and verbally crucifying them for them doing the very thing we want them to do.

Sure HE'S married, but she isn't, so lets do a better job at putting the blame, if one wants to blame, where it belongs.

I didnt say it was appropriate here, necessarily. I havent really thought about that to be honest.

I think you and i have a different working definition of what a troll is.
My understanding of a troll is someone who makes posts that are not inherently genuine and instead, are designed with the motive of stirring up controversy or disheavel. With this defintion stated, her initial posts and follow-ups look genuine (real) to me.

All due respect, I think it really is "your bad".

With all respect, I think you are naiive. I've got some very true stories that would make AWESOME trolls here because they'd stir up all sorts of controversy.

to troll (third-person singular simple present trolls, present participle trolling, simple past trolled, past participle trolled)
1. To saunter, especially to cruise for a sexual partner
I am trolling for custom, said the actress to the Bishop.
2. (fishing) To entice fish with bait; to fish using a line and bait or lures trailed behind a boat.
3. By extension, to search (for), to draw out, to entice
4. To disrupt the operation of an online community.

Noun
troll (plural trolls)
1. An instance of trolling, especially, in fishing, the trailing of a baited line.
2. (internet) Someone who posts to a newsgroup, bulletin board, etc., in a way deliberately intended to anger other posters and draw arguments, or otherwise disrupt the group's intended purpose.
3. (internet) Such a deliberately inflammatory post itself.

"otherwise disrupt the group's intended purpose" Hmm...

I certainly see the controversy now, but i'd probably point the blame for it in a different direction than her.

Penkitten doesn't troll with stupid sh!t like "help me! I'm married to Giovanni, but I want to bang his married brother!" now, does she?

Who, then, is to blame? What direction are you going to point? I'm not a woman posting in a men's forum, don't point at me. Did her search engine fail? Who can she sue for this error?!?!

I did go to the site you recommended and it sucks. This has a lot more life to it, in spite of people like you, Vulpine.

P.S. I found this forum by googling "dating advice" or something like that.

Harsh comments about women are commendable Azanon. Vulpine's points are valid.

The married man simply called off the mission. He was told that he was going to receive sex but couldn't be bothered arranging lunch. So, he obviously doesn't want it. The poster should have included that information straight up, since it decisively resolves the problem. In any event "Mature Man" section has to keep some degree of self regulation over the type/quality of requests made. If anything, priority should be given to immature men's requests for advice rather than women's requests.

 

[penkitten]

the guy being married is just one theory right now, regardless of if he is or isnt, i think she can do way better.

 

[jophil28]

There are(at least )two pre-conditions for a relationship to leave the launch pad-

1.That both people want get the same things out of it.
2.That both parties are FREE to participate in a relationship .


In this case, neither of these exist, so - launch fails.

This lady is drawn by what she can't have. Sane people do not date married men. Triangles are for fools.

Sorry with Vulpine on this, this poster seems like a fake, actually it is hard to imagine this poster being anything but.

But i am sure time will tell.
