And since Neanderthals, like dumb blondes, aren't too bright they would've
fallen for the first anyway - they could pretend to be intellectual or
something (you know sesquidpedalian).

Just a  note before I have all the blonds on the net on my case, I am blonde
and have been for 26 1/2 of my 26 3/4 years of life (I was a brunette
briefly and didn't have hair for the first couple of months) - I didn't
say *all* blondes only dumb ones - I was using the sterotype as
cultural truism.

Seems to me that you do have a serious relationship--albeit, not a sexual 
one.  Isn't what you have fulfilling enough?  (I can see the responses to

   It is now 00:00 hours Greenwich time, as we bring this news to you.  Singles
count in the United States completed, United Nations Security Council passes
resolution demanding access to Trygve's dungeon.  Exercise mania sweeping
singles group dies off as soc.singles moderator gets back into the gym.

   Current reports indicate that the number of single adult men and women
currently residing in the United States has reached the 67 million 375
thousand mark.  The President is due to give an announcement on this matter
later on today.

   The Security Council has passed a new resolution demanding that Trygve
open up his dungeon to inspection by United Nations inspectors.  This amidst
scattered reports of most egregious occurrences taking place in this location.
We now turn you to our correspondent.

   (*Static*) "... we're losing our conn.. (*BITE*) AAAAAA!!!..."

   Well it seems we have temporarily lost our link to the field.  Hope the
old chap didn't get the Bite.

   A wave of exercise mania has been sweeping across the United States for the
past 3 weeks.  However, it seems to be dying down at the moment as the
moderator of the group, Mark, has gone on public record as stating that he has
neglected his weight lifting duties since the 18th of August due to a lack of
funds for attending the gym.  This has brought about a serious scandal, and
he has immediately resolved to return to the gym at the first opportune moment.

   To summarise the news.  Sigles count in the United States has been
completed.  Numbers have exceeded 67 million, 375 thousand for the first time
in history.  UN Security Resolution passed demanding that the Trygve Dungeon
be opened up to inspection.  American exercise mania has died down after
several weeks.

   This news has not been brought to you in conjunction with BBC World Radio.
It is now 10 minutes past the hour.

If all you want is to send email back and forth why did you include your
physical attributes?  If you're never going to meet the person that you're
corresponding with what difference should it make that you have blue eyes?

If all you want to do is send email back and forth why does it have to be
a *straight* female.  If your never going to be intimate with the woman
what difference does it make if she only "likes" men?

> I am from a small town in OHIO, please dont hold it against me.

If all you want to do is send email back and forth what difference should
it make where you are from.  Unless there is something famous/infamous about
that particular town why would it come up in an email conversation?

>I enjoy all music, dancing, and I also enjoy singing and acting.

Since you can't sing, dance, or act over email these might be interesting 
to talk about but why would it require a straight female to talk about these
activities.

>if any straight females wish to send mail it would be appreciated.

Finally, why didn't you post this to soc.penpals?

	What should worry you more is the very real possiblity that
your girlfriend is part of one of those 'sex&thrill-kill' clubs, whose
members seduce young people by plying them with sex, money and self-
este m, seducing  them into joining in some alleged 'group sex' scene,
then overpowering them, tying them down and slowly gutting the victim
like a trout. I must know four or five people that's happened to. Alas, 
the perps are young offenders, so I can't turn them in.

Well, what would you want it to be for?  The standard advice is to
read for a month, and then you'll see what it's for.

Recent topics include garlic, Nice Guys (TM), chocolate, innumerate

Exactly.  Or, more generally, what if one does not rank "primary
relationship" first in one's personal table of values?

This thread makes me slightly queasy.  By disposition I tend to side
with the pot-smoking, car-driving underdog in this scenario.  I don't
believe there is a divinely-inscribed stone tablet that says "Thou shalt
place primary relationships first!" and I resent the implication that
there is.

The pot-smoking ex-SO mentioned in the original post may in fact be a
totally weed-befuddled, going-nowhere-fast loser-type for all I know.
But maybe not, and in general we can't assume that the ultimate be-all
and end-all for every member of our species is to at all times be in a
"primary relationship" to which all other interests and proclivities are
secondary.  Possibly the dude in question just got bored with the
relationship and decided to get baked for a while.

Compulsive behaviors ARE bad.  Relationships ARE the most important
thing.  Right?  I don't buy it cuz it ain't that simple.

Remember kids: Do what thou Wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
