Guest Rick777 Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 Yah, I'm gonna be off PM for awhile at least. I really am trying to cut back on my computer time because it just got way out of control. I feel I could make way better use of that time(homework,praying,etc.). I'm sorry to see Heavenseeker and BonnieLass go, and if Bonnie's mom is reading this it was just all in good fun. We never intended to go to each other's houses, not only is that a ridiculous joke but pretty hard to do since we live pretty far apart. I'm sorry if i ever offended you, I think your daughter is a great girl and you sound like a great Mother. Well Uriviel it' been fun! I'm kinda sad to go though . We had some good times, us Creepy Aliens. O course we were hands down the coolest peeps on Phatmass.lol. Well, Peace Out Pm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TXBluebonnet Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 (edited) This is BonnieLass' mother. Forums can be fun, they can be addicting and take over your time. Good fun is never bad, excessive fun??????? I am sorry to have been the crimp in your fun. I just want to make PhatMass safer. Prayer and reflection are wonderful alternatives. Everyone here does appear well intentioned and hopefully I will help work toward improving security features so that people like yourselves can enjoy places like PhatMass, within guidelines, of course. Just so you know, BonnieLass did not believe this was a joke; she was actually rather shocked to find out it was. This all came up because she asked my permission to have someone from this forum come to our home; I did not just stumble across your posts and assume the worst. Imagine what might have happened if the person was not good-hearted. Pax Edited May 27, 2006 by TXBluebonnet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pax [/quote] Someone seems a little uptight I don't see the problem. firstly it seems unlikely to me that heavenseeker is a pervert . secondly, Bonnielass [i]asked[/i] you if heavenseeker could come to your [i]house[/i]. its not like she was going to meet some guy at the mall without even letting you know. The fact that you are tweaking out after being asked if he could come to your house, a safe environment, definetly makes you come off as a stereotypical inflexible parent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides inflexible can be good. Unreasonable and inflexible aren't really interchangeable adjectives. You can be unreasonably inflexible OR inflexibly unreasonable but they aren't the same thing.

I read in this one book, I bought from Lieflet, that for Catholic Women, one line dating is OK. Just have a parent involved. It's ok to have friends on here, and so forth. There is nothing wrong with that. (At least not in my point of view.) Just as long as you keep open with your parents about it, (If you live with them) then it's ok.

lightofelendil Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 I know many ppl. who have done online dating, and one very close friend of mine is now engaged with someone she met online. I think online dating can be very ok when done the right way. People should not automatically think becuase its online, its unsafe. There are many ways to be safe online. Of coarse you should always be extremely cautious, there is no eason to be paranoid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was, do you think he'd say it. I doubt it. If he was, you would never know it. He'd be just like the rest of us, acting inoccent. I also think online dating is stupid. (I've never done it, but I know exactly how it can be missleading) If that's not a waste of time, I don't know what is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uruviel Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 I know seriously I would never want to have an online relationship. Fine if someone else wants to, your right there are ways to have a safe relationship but not on Phatmass. Maybe on a dating website, which are weird too, but still I would bet their safer. Anyways, phatmass should not be the place where you come to find a date... please not here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TXBluebonnet Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 (edited) Catholic online dating forums (Christian or secular ones for that matter) are for those 18 and older. The terms of enrollment are far different than those one has to agree to to join PhatMass. One Catholic forum in particular has this explanation of their service: "is NOT a dating service and not like other sites. Thus, we are not for every single Catholic. In fact, our service is only for those "rare" single Catholics who do NOT believe in Catholic dating and who DO believe in courtship and find it hard to meet committed, 100% practicing Catholic singles. The person you are seeking is among a very rare group of hard-to-find individuals." PhatMass is a public Catholic forum, whose membership is not entirely Catholic, and is open to minors.
