"Let me get this right....."You want to be part of a Singles Dive Group that DOESN'T include partying, socializing, talking, or other divers?" Is that what I just read?"
Nope, not what I said. I said, in part: "Not at all interested in a Party Group, a Match-Making Group..." For one, I don't want to dive with hungover divers nor divers who request morning trips so they can sleep it off. And I don't want to see Love-Wanted ads. Actually, I am registered at Match.com, and since I started using this Wet picture that WWench took of me in Cozy as my primary photo on Match.com, I've been getting a lot more winks. "Different people have different goals. If you want to go on a dive trip with other singles and not party, that's fine. If others do want to party, that's fine too. It's kinda like the DIR diver who thinks everyone should be exactly like him. It's a great system, but it's not the only great system and it's not for everyone. You system of no partying works for you, Don. Don't expect it to work for everyone."
See above..."Yes, we are about developing a singles dive group. We're not about match making, but I'd be surprised if matches weren't made. I'd think of romantic connections as a very good side effect, but not our focus."
Sounds good to me."Married folks looking for dive buddies (buddyless divers) are part of the community here. Some trips will be single divers only. Other trips will be mixed single divers and buddyless divers. We'll make sure everyone knows which are which so they can be happy with their choice."
Ok, I'm told that they're required to register, so we'll know which they are. Fine, until they start giving "If I was single" advice. Then I'll need a rasberry smilie."...on people that dont like to share toe nail clippers."
I'd like to start a poll to see how many here like to share their hair brushs and toe nail clippers with assigned roomies. Where would I put that...?
