The way I have been asking lately is via internet. I am not ashamed of the fact I respond to Yahoo ads, and meet some nice women that way.

I have replied to one ad that belongs to one of our veteran members, and one ad that is now a member. I brought her on board. We went to a movie and dinner and arranged it by im chat. Although it did not work out romantically, we have stayed in touch via okc talk as friends.

In fact, as I write this, I am arranging another. What do I say? Simple. "Why don't we meet for lunch." If it works out, I bet we will ask each other out. Technically, she brought up lunch. I have one more on the front burner and others in various stages. I also ask by email.

I feel more comfortable this way.
