I met some friends online who became really valuable to me if I need some advice for example.

Shouki I dont who you are meaning with your post. However some of us have been here for years thus we "know" each other. Hence some of us have each other's home phone numbers and etc. Yet since I dont know you well enough to give out that info, I simply wont. No offense. This is due to being cautious and not having a rapport with you via the boards of this website or thru the chats hosted on here. So in order for me to know you, the afore mentioned boards or chats tis the only way you will know me.
Have a great day!

Most of us have not met in person. Just got to know each by way of chatting on here, and in WomensSpace. Just keep coming back, checking out other threads & commenting. It's a great group who contribute to the chat here.

Shouki, this is a site for women, not a pick up joint.

Alot of us come here to chat to get away from that.

You're welcome to join in our conversations, as long as you respect the women here.

Woooooohooooooooooooo ((((((((((( Allie IRISH )))))))))))) Thank you!

I never gave much thought to meeting friends online. Always busy working and raising kids, and always seemed to have plenty of friends and family around so I never was curious about a cyberlife. That all changed about a year and a half ago when my daughter talked me into joining match.com (I had been divorced for about 9 years). Well, as luck would have it, I met the man I will spend the rest of my life with in just a matter of days.

Then, about 6 months ago we moved from Colorado to Texas. I went from having work friends, social friends, and family around to me, my fiance (who works 14 hours a day), and our two dogs. Needless to say, I have decided that my computer is now my only link sometimes to the outside world. And I figure that if I can meet my soul mate on here...I surely can meet some trusted friends as well.

rjsfeminist · November 10th, 2009, 07:40 PM

Wow, tjterri, that takes a lot of courage to move several states away to be with your fiance. Seriously, I hope you're safe. My mom met my step-dad online and one of my friends met her husband online, so yeah, it does work. I'd be uptight about trying it, though, figuring that with my luck, I'd meet some crazy nut. So please let us know how it works out. (Personally, I hope it works out.)

Wolf, I so agree with you on Allie's and Irish's posts. Shouki, you're beginning to come across as somewhat, um, trollish.

tjterri63 · November 10th, 2009, 08:41 PM

Thanks, rjsfeminist, but I assure you I have never been more safe. I have met the man that I should have met in my early twenties. The move was huge for me...I've never lived any other place but Colorado. I like it though.....miss the mountains but love the 70 degree, golf weather days. I miss family but wouldn't be anyplace else. It's just nice to connect with women, and WOW is such a safe place to do that. I have never been on a chat site so I'm hoping to learn to do that on WomensSpace as well someday soon.

I agree....Shouki is scary

HI IA M NEW USER OF THIS SITE HELLO 2 ALL U FROME ME

IRISH_EYES_99 · November 14th, 2009, 09:03 PM

This is NOT a PICK UP SITE. This is a forum for women. Men are welcomed so long as they act appropriaetly.
WOW= Women Online Worldwide.

crazymomma · November 18th, 2009, 02:12 PM

Amen Irish!!! I just saw a newbie post and didn't have the nerve to say anything.

bellstarny · January 17th, 2010, 06:53 PM

Hi Everyone, I think online friendships can be just as valuable as so called "real friendships". Finding friends online gives us the opportunity to get to know people we would never meet or come accross in our daily lives and maybe it can be used as a way to get to know people of different religions and cultures which is really needed these days.

I look forward to making lots of new friends here.

Wolf_angel · January 18th, 2010, 09:24 AM

(((((((((IRISH Allie crazymomma tjterri63 bellstarny)))))))))) As for those two others i.e. gulkhan and shouki ugh! We dont allow men to come here to pick up women. This site was created by a wonderful insightful Lady who has passed on. She had the insight and love to help women online worldwide. So if you respect women and can show it on here, most of us dont have a problem with that. However, those who think they can post their pick up nonsense get real. Real Ladies in the real world would simply look at you like you have no common sense pat your head and walk away while shaking their heads.

Yes I agree for the most part that online relationships can be just as good as those in person. I know this for a fact. I have several people who I have actually met online then in person.

So Noha and tjterri63 come and check things out. Look at the message boards and perhaps join in on a chat sometime when you are able to.

Have a great day!
