i liked almost 100 people on here just to get no like from the back, I can't really say if they're bots lol
I think most people do not waste their time with profiles that have no pictures. There are a lot of reasons not to have a picture, but none of them are good...

I had to shave my Pyrenes once cuz he got himself supper matted when someone let him outta the yard, he was gone for several hours.. he was SO mad at me.. he looked exactly like a male lion :laugh
LOL...There is a lady down the road from me that has a couple pyrenes that keep getting out. They are supper friendly and I bet they would let me shave them before I bring them back home next time...lol

Dog: Basset Hounds are the perfect dog for me, but I like most dogs as long as they are friendly...lol I've always had big dogs, Bermese Mtn Dogs, Great Pyrenes & King doberman.. big teddy bears

Cats: I like wild cats, they should not be shut up in the house. My best cat was one that the neighbors brought inside for about a year, after she escaped she would claw you up if you went to the door holding her...lol the one that hangs out with me is a Feral (I guess you cud say wild cat) she won't go near anyone BUT me and she's rarely inside.. even in winter, unless it's like -20 or there's heavy snowfalls
Back when I had larger dogs, it was mostly blood hounds and chow. That chow was a big teddy bear...lol

It does not get that cold here, but cold enough that I will build cat houses outside for them each winter in my driveway, then I take them down for the summer. I build new ones each fall.

That is where Mingle can make a big difference. Your computer device has a unique identification associated with it and Mingle should attach it to each profile. Anytime two or more profiles have the same unique identification ID, the account should be frozen. I would suspect most of those "ladies" exist on the same server!!!
You heard of spoofing? Where they can call your phone with any phone number they want including your own? They can do the same with you computer. So that ID that you are currently using that you think is just yours, they can also use the same number and then you both would get locked out...

Can be anything... your fave :

song
food
music genre
movie
tv show
clothing brand/style
shoe brand/style
dog
cat
pet
vehicle type/brand


I missed this post while M2 was harassing me...lol

Song: I like a lot of music, but one that seems to always be in my head is Offspring 'Bad Habit'

Food: Spicy comfort foods

Music Genre: Rock would be my go to, but my mp3 player I use when working out has everything from 1920's swing to modern 2020's pop on it, including country and rap. As long as it is good then I like it.

Movie: Comedy is where I usually go here.

TV shows: I like the 'How-to' shows. Whether it is about building something, how something was done, or even a strategic game show like Survivor.

Clothing brand/style: I took one of those online tests for clothing styles and I think my style was "relaxed surfer"...lol I like to be comfortable. But I am happy with Hanes shirts and Levi Jeans.

Shoe Brand/style: Nike high top shoes if I am getting a name brand, otherwise cheap canvas slip on shoes or sandals are good.

Dog: Basset Hounds are the perfect dog for me, but I like most dogs as long as they are friendly...lol

Cats: I like wild cats, they should not be shut up in the house. My best cat was one that the neighbors brought inside for about a year, after she escaped she would claw you up if you went to the door holding her...lol

Pet: Besides my dog, I like having a goat in the yard. Always playful and fun. Chickens are good also but take too much work any more for me.

Vehicle Brand/Type: Mostly GM. I have had a lot of different vehicles over the years, some good and some not so good...lol. Many that I wish I would have kept. But one that I have always liked from a far is the 1959 Cadillac, I would need to win the lottery (that I do not play) to get that though...lol

I believe that scammers, on the whole, are not the cleverest people.

I think it was that "Trafficked with Mariana Van Zeller" show that interviewed scammers and talked to them about the things that they do. One of the things that was talked about was the poor grammar, which they said was on purpose. When you are scamming someone, you want to weed out the intelligent people. The lower educated are easier to scam. I figure it works the same with the location also, make some guy believe he found a small town girl...lol

Here in South Carolina we have countries ... Norway, Sweden and Denmark
LOL...I would assume those were people from those countries (scammer or not) wanting to make a profile to contact people in the states. I see it with profiles from the Philippines on here a lot.

Definitely Red Flags ... Alaska, Wisconsin and Iowa, Alabama
Red flags but that does not mean the places are not real. It looks like there is an Alaska, Wisconsin but I did not find one for Iowa, Alabama (I am not saying it is not real, just my 2 second google search did not find it...lol).

Arkansas is bad for stealing city names, I can drive from Paris to England in about 2 hours here...lol

I am not great when it comes to geography , nor am I familiars with all the cities , towns and places in North America , but I think I am getting pretty good at spotting places that dont really exist....but Scammers use them all the time ....So, can I take it for granted, that the scammers just make up these places to lure you to their profile Or are they just plain Stupid??

Example ..Cindy in Florida Florida Or Jennifer in Las Vegas, New Mexico..

Can you add to this list ...Go....
Google is your friend. There actually is a Las Vegas, New Mexico which is the county seat of San Miguel County (so it should be large for that area). But not as big or famous as the Nevada one...lol

They do seem to like to use small towns (I am in a town of 3,000 so I can not say much) but I did look up one town that had the population of 74 I think, and there was about 30 profiles using that town...lol

I thought I would ask here with so many people traveling, I will be going to Detroit, MI this July and I thought I would ask what is the good and bad there. I will be there for a convention for about a week, most days will be busy but I figure I will wonder around in the evenings to see what I can there. I am staying in a hotel by the river and the convention center so it looks like the down town area.

I know I can google it (which I have) but I don't know if those are just some articles written by a kid that got paid by those places or not...lol

For a while there were dozens of six and a half foot Asian ladies living in Chicago.

At least they were in a big enough city to have a WNBA team, the Chicago Sky...no matter how dumb that name sounds...lol

Not even a good profile photo. Get a new one with a smile without sunglasses.

If guys should have to take pictures without sunglasses then it is only fair that the women need to post up pictures without makeup...lol

Oftentimes men ask where you want to go, and I've got 3 entirely different things I'd enjoy. Then he can choose which one we're going to do. I will be happy regardless, hihi.
And only 1 of the 3 costs money so it's up to him if he's willing to go for that one or not.
Just out of curiosity are you going to share your three?...lol
The one I always found weird was going to the movies as a first date. Sitting in a dark room with a bunch of other people with a movie that you can not pause or talk during. Maybe you get stuck with a bunch of people that want to talk back to the movie the whole time so you can not hear what is going on. So you are really not there for the movie... Maybe that is the 6th date for some...lol

I can not speak for everyone here, but just paying for dinner is just an example. Each date is different since each person is different. Personally I like to see what festivals are going on so it is something new, but I would not want to go to some place she is not also interested in so there should be at least enough conversation between us before going that I think she might like it. Assuming we are just talking about meeting a stranger online here...lol
