No Feb 13, 2017

One of my exes has a proz account, but she seems to be reluctant to use it and prefers to ask me. Sometimes I end up posting her queries on kudoz in my own name.

Define "date" Feb 13, 2017

I have become good cyber-friends with several people on ProZ. I looked up one of them when I was traveling and we spent a nice afternoon together. I wouldn't mind being a cougar, but the age difference is extreme.

Last year, when you came to Brazil, we had actually planned a lunch or dinner together. We ended up not meeting, but if we did, could that be considered a date? I think my answer to this poll would have been "yes" if we met.

On the other hand I have been approached by a couple or three guys with the same intentions.

Well, writing to someone with whom you've never even talked, through a professional page, to tell him he looks charming? That's quite an inappropriate behaviour in my opinion.


Let's leave room for variety in different cultures. Maybe what Natalia did is pretty normal for Chileans.

LOL. Quite unsual... Feb 14, 2017

At first this question sounded so unusual for me, I did like it. I have seen some interesting people around (online). However, it would difficult to risk that aproach.

Sort of... Feb 15, 2017

... when I mentioned I was going to Ottawa for the day, someone from proz suggested we meet up (but we had met at several powwows already, and there was no romantic vibe). I've receive a couple of other offers of "coffee dates" by people I've met at powwows - and I always have a hard time figuring out if this is triggered by professional interests or something else.
