My sister said that if I stay in Bangor I must give up the idea of ever dating again.

[crim son]

Well, SHITE! While in Boston I took a good look around. That city is FULL of beautiful men. How is it that none of them have migrated north?


Yeah yeah yeah, beauty is only skin deep. Pfffft!

[taterguy]

1. Your sister is mistaken

Anything is possible in this big old goofy world

[jonnyblitz]

3. I am from the same area. Crim son's sister is correct.

many of us flea and never return.

I don't believe in blowing smoke up somebody's ass. sometimes the truth is harsh.

[crim son]

7. That's right, johnnyblitz.

You do know!

[crim son]

5. My sister is a wise woman and she's been to Bangor.

When I wrote this post though, I forgot about mainegreen. He's not in Bangor but he's in Maine and he, his wife and baby are very beautiful people.

Hi taterguy :hi:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

2. But I've never been to Boston.

Oh, you meant other guys...

:blush:

[jonnyblitz]

6. all those beautiful men in Boston are dating each other.

:P :hi:

[crim son]

11. No they're not. Okay, a lot of them are

but I lived there for three years. I couldn't believe my good fortune when I arrived in the city from Oregon. The west coast is all blondes; the east is much darker which I love. I'm not simple and shallow or anything, jb.

[jonnyblitz]

17. I was just kidding!

nobody can make that determination of course! :hi:

[crim son]

22. Oh I know.

I'm perfectly content if many of the men are dating men, as long as a few of them aren't.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

12. Ha!

:rofl:

[crim son]

8. I didn't see anybody as beautiful as you of course.

Though I looked!

[Starbucks Anarchist]

10. That's right.

;) :D :blush:

[crim son]

13. Believe me, I've stayed awake many nights trying to figure

out how to be twenty-five again, with you in mind. Sigh.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

16. Good to know at least somebody has me in mind.

:P :D

[crim son]

23. Does this mean you had no luck on Friday?

Aww..... :hug:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

25. Just hung out with friends on Friday.

Nothing special.

[crim son]

27. Excellent.

:P

[Starbucks Anarchist]

28. You're like beautiful kryptonite.

:P

[crim son]

29. I'm not.

Not either of those.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

30. You're certainly the first.

;)

[crim son]

31. ...

:hug: :loveya: Flattery will get you far.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

32. Then I hope to get to the moon.

:evilgrin: :loveya:

[crim son]

34. Beautiful man, you will.

I have very good taste.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

36. Mostly.

;) :rofl:

[crim son]

37. I guess that's fair. I've been known to make a mistake now and then.

:rofl: Crap, have I. And you have not?

[Starbucks Anarchist]

40. I'm "perfect," remember?

:rofl:

[BarenakedLady]

43. Oh get a room you two

for fuck's sake, get it over with. :eyes:











You know I'm just kidding right? well...sort of. :evilgrin:

:rofl:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

44. Hell, we'll need a warehouse.

:rofl:

[crim son]

49. BNL, you are cruel.

We entertain one another!

[BarenakedLady]

50. You know I love ya baby!

:hug:

Just teasing...

[crim son]

57. I know!

Me too. :hug:

[crim son]

45. If you were here,

I'd show you how perfect you are o ye of little faith.

I'm going for a walk because it's twenty degrees... practically spring! Can I get you anything from CVS?

[Starbucks Anarchist]

51. Damn, I wish I was in Maine.

:evilgrin:

Oh, I'll take a pack of smokes and a Cherry Coke. :D

[Starbucks Anarchist]

19. To paraphrase Groucho Marx:

"You're only as old as the man you feel." :evilgrin:

[crim son]

21. Why, then I'm exactly your age!

If I'm to judge by my only *indiscretion* since the STBE and I decided to separate. :evilgrin:

edited for spelling.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

24. Indiscretions are fun!

:rofl:

[crim son]

26. It was just the once

and it was early in the game because I was feeling hideous and ancient after being rejected by somebody even more hideous and ancient. The young man made me feel much better! :rofl:

[1gobluedem]

4. The best looking guy I have ever seen was in Freeport, ME

Aside from my own, SO, that is. But this guy worked as a handyman or something at the Hampton Inn and was just the epitome of rugged New England good looks. And he was nice too. Although that may have been pity for the idiot (me) who didn't realize the coffeemaker was one of those one-cup-at-a-time types that have no pot.

[crim son]

14. Seriously? Up here it is so rare to see a truly fine looking male.

In fact I was grocery shopping with the STBE about a week ago. He was in the produce section and I had moved on to cereal and coffee. Suddenly he appeared and demanded that I go visit apples and oranges because there was "actually a handsome man over there." It's so freaking rare that even he notices.

[1gobluedem]

18. Oh, yes, seriously

They sent him to my room after I called about no coffee pot. Needless to say, I was still in my pajamas and robe, hair sticking up everywhere, had my glasses on and no makeup. And here is this HUNK offering to show me how to work the coffeemaker. How embarrassing a) to be that stupid and b) to look that awful.

I searched for him in the lobby after I was showered, dressed, and look reasonably human. Only so he could see that I'm not a hellhag all the time (I am happy in my relationship). But, of course, he was nowhere in sight.

I still wonder why they didn't just tell me that the coffeemaker was single cup only instead of sending Adonis. Maybe it's on purpose, to make up for their high prices.

Anyway, go hang out in the lobby of the Hampton Inn in Freeport. Or get a room and tell them you have no coffe pot.

[crim son]

20. I swear you get more appreciation here if you are

looking like a - ha! - hellhag. Clearly Adonis was part of the entertainment/luxury package & I may have to spend a weekend at the Hampton Inn in Freeport.

[1gobluedem]

59. It might be worth the price

Plus you can shop at LL Bean to your heart's content.

[underpants]

9. Bangor?!?!

Hell I hardly knew her!

:bounce:

[crim son]

15. bwahahaha!

You must be one of the locals. :P

[jonnyblitz]

33. people from out of state always pronounce it "bang-GIR"

we, of course, say "Bang -GORE".

[crim son]

35. Like we pronounce "Calais" as "Callis". n/t

[GreenPartyVoter]

46. well of course we do. Speaking of which I am going up there

on Saturday to watch my alma mater in the b-ball states.

Woo hoo! Go Mariners!!!!

And the week after that I gotta be back at the auditorium for the Jr high cheer championships.

Woo hoo! Go Cougars!!!!

[crim son]

48. Maine Maritime Academy?

Hmmmm. Who was your physics professor? :hi:

[GreenPartyVoter]

52. Nah this is high school states, Deer Isle Stonington. My college was

UMFarmington, the Beavers. (don't say it. everyone says it! LOL)

[Gormy Cuss]

58. Sort of.

To people from away, they hear us say it as Bang- GOHH.;)

[crim son]

60. Just for the record, I was born in Canada. I pronounce

my Rs!

[Gormy Cuss]

63. Yeah, I know you're not native, but that doesn't change the way the people around you say it.

Like my family or the other natives floating around in this thread.;)

[crim son]

64. True. I just don't want anybody imagining me

with the Maine accent. It's fine, the accent; but I don't have it. :rofl:

[underpants]

42. No not at all

But I did meet someone from Maine once.

[MorningGlow]

38. Hey, CS

Nip over to the astrology forum and read the threads about manifestation--with a little sincere intent, you can draw ANYthing into your life, including a hunk who just suddenly realizes he absolutely HAS to live in Bangor!

Hey, it's worth a try! :D

[crim son]

39. I will do that, MorningGlow.

I'm already a believer but sometimes I'm not sure how to put my beliefs into practice. :hi:

[MorningGlow]

41. Believing is half the battle!

:hi:

Most important, be specific, envision yourself already HAVING what you want and how happy you are, and then let it go--release it to the universe (hard not to dwell on it, but give it your best shot).

Funny story--I had a "crush" on a very cool TV character (I know, I know!) and I would always say "I want to find MY (character name)!" Guess what DH's name is?! (But he really isn't much like the character--and that's a good thing--I believe the character had commitment issues! :D )

[crim son]

47. I can do that.

For many years I've been confused about what I want. Not any more. Interesting story about the DH! Of course, if his name's John, it could be coincidence :P

[idgiehkt]

53. Are you considering a move to Boston?

I know I would. :hi:

[crim son]

54. Hi idg, I just got back from a walk!

No, I couldn't afford to live there and until my kids are finished with H.S. I'm going to be in this area. I'm about to PM you.

[idgiehkt]

55. why is all the good places to live are too expensive?

I can't afford to live in my town either. That's how I got stuck on the internet, trying to have a life in a town that is basically a wasteland.

[crim son]

56. You *can* afford to live in Bangor!

Neither of us will be stuck forever. I refuse to let it happen.

[Deja Q]

61. How about St Paul, MN?

:D

[crim son]

62. If it weren't for my children,

I'd be virtually anywhere but here. I've known a number of Minnesota folk and I like them. As we discussed earlier however I expect you to keep me warm during the winters. This past one, devoid of embraces, has been particularly cold. :evilgrin:

[billyskank]

65. Move to Bedford

:hi:

[crim son]

66. Okay!

:hi:

[billyskank]

67. !!

:woohoo:

;)

:loveya:

[crim son]

68. I'm liking your enthusiasm.

:hug:

[billyskank]

69. I warn you though

I only have one bed. :evilgrin:


You won't kick me onto the sofa, will you? ;)

:*

[crim son]

71. Of course not.

That's where my THREE KIDS will sleep. (see... I'm going to end up alone, I just know it).

[billyskank]

73. You just need someone very liberal of attitude

:hug:

[graywarrior]

70. Well, having lived in Maine for awhile, I'd have to agreed somewhat.

However, if you've ever been to the independent video store in Portland, you might change your mind. But then, that's Portland, which is closer to Boston than Bangor is.

My friend Jess, who lives in Portland, resorted to computer dating and met some really cool guys from Maine. A few I'd even consider, tho they were not "dark and broody" enough for me.

[crim son]

72. I'm not feeling completely without hope

but that's probably because I'm not even officially "looking" yet. The one thing I know for sure is that Mr. Right isn't at the local pub.

Oh I'm kidding. I don't want no fucking Mr. Right.
