RANDOM THOUGHTS

I am not much into messaging (such as hangouts messaging, etc.) as I am on a computer all day coding, not to mention I have a very active lifestyle. So if they need to text me, they can. If I don't know them very well, I don't give them my personal number. They just continue to contact me on the one I activated for my online friends. Plus.. my online friends phone is just texting, not for phone calls. So when I get to know an online friend well, I give them my personal phone number so they can call me if they want. That's the difference really... one phone is text only, the other one is my personal phone that does allow calls and texts. I activated the online friends phone in case someone got stupid and stalkerish (if that is even a word lol). It was to protect myself.

Damn gurl, u dun f/mess around!!!
So I did make gud decision to stay away! XP j/k
Well in the beginning, I thought 3 cellphones b/c u need one for backup and one to backup the backup. But apparently im wrong!
We feel so special now, u activated a phone just for us! Well not me but j.s.

Why is this site not improving at all after 2 years since I joined? I see there's a great potential for this kind of social network but nothing really has improved. I am totally confused. Who ever runs this site should benefit in the long run if they do this more commercially. There're millions of asian men out there would like to socialize with more of non asian women, even if it is just for a friendship or cultural exchange knowledge or so the opoosite. I just don't get it, honestly.

Hey mate, I feel ya. Bear in mind the site is free. It's run and operated by donations, volunteers and the very little it makes through banner ads etc. A lot of the members here are also younger and students without income to justify a subscription cost. It's members has increased substantially over the years. so in a way... by culture and community it has improved.

In my experience, this is the best site of its kind that facilitates these interactions and has handled the troughs and crests where other sites have failed over the years.

What kind of improvement do you have in mind?
Just the commercial aspect and benefiting financially from it? Can you really call this an improvement? I'm not really sure about it.

From the general perspective I can't really see the need of "improvement". The site is easy to handle and easy to use. People are behaving properly, there are very few trolls around (if any - haven't seen any on the forums for a while which had been quite a bit different until a couple of years ago), the mods are doing a great job keeping things peaceful. Can't talk about the chatroom though, since I'm never on there.

Jesus loves you

Why are all the good looking guys so young

.... & The Flying Spaghetti Monster loves you MORE !

The one thing we need to understand is that letting go of someone to an entirety is almost impossible. They’ll always remain in the cobwebbed corners of our hearts, dusty but present; seemingly insignificant, but important nevertheless. As I write this, I am reminded of a song a favourite teacher taught us in school from the musical Wicked – “It well may be, that we will never meet again in this lifetime/So let me say before we part/So much of me is made from what I learned from you/You’ll be with me, like a hand print on my heart.”True to the words, moving on and away from someone who is no longer good for us is a journey. While it is healthy to heal and to learn to fill the void with others again, over time it becomes apparent that even though people might not be replaceable, after all, sometimes it pays to put yourself first.
