I went for drinks with a woman tonight and it was going well initially (I was 'very interesting 'and 'a nice guy' apparantly) until I went into one of my blabbermouth confessions that I'm a member of this site and dated someone from it and she kind of flipped out. Suddenly she was saying we didnt have enough in common and that she "isnt the suicidegirl-type girl I'm looking for". Hmm. I'm not too down about her in particular but this hasnt been an isolated incident recently.
I feel like Johnny Marr at the end of The Smiths - something that made me happy now hinders me and I need to move on. My heart hasn't been in the site for some time and just producing journals quoting lyrics is doing a disservice to the interesting people on my friend's list. (Did you know the last journal was a Nelly Furtado lyric?).
Some things have niggled me about this site. I feel that too many people value the concept of stuff more than the actual reality of it. I could give examples but I'd be preaching to the wrong people. I pruned my friend's list before writing this so if you are reading this as a friend then it means I think you are great.
So yeah, I'm not sad to leave and I may even make the odd 1 month return in the future. Im not leaving the planet either so if you want to keep in contact with me hit me up online or email me: ldwarren@hotmail.com
Lots of love to you all, especially darling Iggy.

yeah, I hear you brother. Reality > Concept..even if the concept is naked. And reminds you of Lauren Bacall. *ahem*
I was within a hair's breadth of jumping ship in April...and I will probably do so in the next couple of months too. Still, who knows?
I've also had an experience like yours...though my worse. It's funny how people get worked up over such trivialities.
So off to colaborate with a Bernard Sumner equivalent? That might not be so bad.

Awe. Well its not like I won't see you or speak to you!!
But I will miss you.
And you know if someone is going to judge you because you are a member of a site they just don't understand then they are really not worth it you know?
Thats what I say anyway, cause I have encountered it too, and still do in many ways....
She was probably threatened and thought you dated a 'porn star'...which I am far from!!
MIss you hon.

Thanks. 
Will be sorry to see you go, but I can understand your reasons. Hell, when I first found out bf was on here, I flipped too! Probably not a first date conversation. 
I've made a note of your e-mail address though. I'll message you mine! We'll have to meet some time since we're local!
Take care.

All the good ones are going. I'll miss you, but I have your online contact details already and your mobile number.
I can't believe she flipped out like that!
I value you as a friend too, so please keep in touch
Love and kisses
