Am I invisible?

sigh. no hasher boy.

just as well; i have a bad feeling that some hashers are not unlike the cult who play ultimate... been there, done that, got no t-shirt.

Seeing as how I'm the only hasher that I know you know, I think I have to resent that!

hehe you sure you werent looking like youre straving and from somalia? and the guy and girl were wearing WFP uniforms?


i do see alot of e-charm though . hehe never seen pics so i cant confrim cutness .

Well, it's not like you're entirely wrong...8)

It is culty but not like the ultimate people, it's also generally not competitive, though in ny, it is much more so than other hashes.

In the end, it's all about people getting together to have a good time, the rest is window dressing.

actually, it was all the reading i did about hashers when i was at your website, so you are not to blame for the reputation my mind has given it.

And I will add that there are a lot of cute girl and boy runners in the hash and out.

Thanks, BP! She even saw me with NO makeup on whatsoever. Fresh (or not-so-fresh to be accurate) after yoga. And she's pretty cute, too!

thanks flexi, and you saw me sweating to death and freaked out and nervous about selling my work. so we're both cute when we're sweaty...

bunny,

i can afford only a happy meal at mcdonalds, and that's even stretching it. i could buy you a yogurt, if you would consider that a meal.

I don't know about hashers, but there are some really good-looking men who run in the park. I've been noticing that since I started running in the evenings (used to run in the middle of the day when there aren't many runners out). It definitely makes running in the heat and humidity a tiny bit more tolerable.

please watch my head fly off. look out your windows, it will be rushing by at full force.

3rd, i am sure you meant this with extreme kindness, but it's something you should never, EVER, tell any single woman. EVER. ever. a: it gets our hopes up, and b: it's bullshit.

I don't get offened by somebody saying "you can meet somebody anywhere" for the reasons that BP does.

I just get annoyed when people are saying that because they think that being coupled is some sort of "ultimate goal" for everybody.

Then again, if I was initiating a conversation about being single and somebody said that to me, I wouldn't be offened. Because then I'm asking for advice..........but otherwise, I don't really want or need advice about being single.

Does that make any sense?

perhaps, and i'm hazarding a guess here, you're the kind of woman who never expects it, isn't one of us who's looking all the time, ergo you meet men when you're not looking because you're never looking? (which is an admirable trait, but not one you can snap your fingers and achieve.)

Flexichick wrote: I wouldn't say I never expect it either.

More like I always expect it.

Not that I always expect that if I go out I will meet somebody. More like, I know I could meet somebody. That doesn't mean I'm going out and saying "I know I'll meet somebody today" and looking at every person wondering "is it you?" . More like I'm open to the idea that if I bump into somebody at random and strike up a conversation and we have some chemistry that it could well lead into something more.

i'm i'm always thinking, well, i guess i could meet someone but it's not likely. and ooh, there's a cute guy in the cereal aisle at the c-town so i'll go near him and pretend to look at kashi-go-lean while attempting to strike up non-stilted conversation and failng because he doesn't notice that i'm standing there.

i think flexi might be one of those women who practically give off a "scent" that make men follow her and want to talk with her.

you might be right on target. but i think i give off more of a "ooh, i hope he likes me" vibe, which is why men i'm wholly not interested in want to date me, because i don't much care about meeting them.

I don't think I give off that "oooh, I hope he likes me scent". When I do "hope he likes me", I'm sure that I get as goofy as the next girl, but usually just for my friends (I think)

I don't know what my scent is.

Right now it's Nag Champa, since I'm blazin' the incense :-)

speaking only from past experience since I'm a far cry from single, I can say this....when I was looking to meet someone, I came up gooseegg. and I had thee most miserable night. and I looked hot too (might I add, thank you) On nights that I'd go out, not looking to meet anyone, not looking my absolutely fabulous self but in my opinion QUITE the opposite, THEN, then I would meet someone (note to reader: someone = chick, TrixieNYC = chick)
I think this applies to ANYONE single out there, gay/straight/male/female. I think there's a certain desperation "scent" we let out, it's not attractive and it's mighty frightening.
At the same time, being single, on the flipside, some male/females are shy or scared of the approach. Heck, when I finally stopped going out "just to meet someone" I'd send girls drinks, no problem. I'm a far cry from being shy. Or, I'd strike up conversation with a woman (who, 9 outta 10 times wound up being a straight girl in a lesbian bar which MIGHT I ADD is NOT very fair of you ladies...lol) anyway, back to point. I'd have great conversation. it was a night out, and I met a nice person. and I had a good time.
go out, have fun, don't have expectations THEN you'll meet someone.
I have the feeling I'm gonna get yelled at next but, heck, dems my 2 cents.
just go meet people. you never know, that straight girl I spent the whole night chatting up, had I gotten her number and made friends with her, hung out, etc, one day maybe I would have met one of her friends (or her hot lesbian twin sister) and we'd have ourselves a match.
