Guys, do you ever have AH females (or males) hitting on you?

[theWollstonecraftWoman]

Sorry, I keep forgetting not everyone here is a jew. I said Sarcastic, who me?

 

[Emotional]

I rarely post outside of the AH.

I get one about once a month, both M&W.

I laugh, delete, and move on.

But I have met a few really good friends here that I converse with outside of Lit.

what is AH??

what is AH??

Authors Hangout

This isn’t about writing, but is about writers, as opposed to general Lit users.

I wonder if any male AHers have been hit on by other AHers (regardless of gender). Or is it simply just a numbers game that it seems to happen to me and other girls I know?

If I had a nickel for every time...

I answer them politely, let them know it's a writing thing, not a play time thing, and hope they get the message without being insulted. If I did role-play, I'd never get any actual writing done.

Lucky of you to have met like minded people!

not quite - I wrote a story but never fixed it up to be accepted when it was returned lol instead I just read hot stories like what you write

Thank you for that. Makes me feel better about my day. .

I'd almost have a nickel!

Or a GIF with the eyeball moving.

That's just what I should do. I'm sure I would get hit on more.

 

[theWollstonecraftWoman]

We've had an increase in the thought payment. It started at a penny for your thoughts, went to a nickel, and hovered at a dime forever. Now if he wants my thoughts, it costs him ten bucks. Needless to say, he doesn't ask my opinion often these days.

I’m getting wet just thinking about it

my previous statement was for you, by the way.

 

[Paul_Chance]

Never from the AH forum. I've met some nice people and made two long term friends, but it was primarily around writing/editing/plotting as the initial conversation.

 

[EmilyMiller]

The ten bucks one?

 

[CyranoJ]

It's a funny thing. Back in the day, I was dead-sure the Babadook avatar would have the ladies lining up around the block, but... no. Never been hit on. Had nice conversations with a few people, though.

 

[MillieDynamite]

The short answer to the original question is yes. I don't have time for a long answer.

 

[theWollstonecraftWoman]

The ten bucks one?

The escalating cost for my thoughts.

I found this is a great site to meet like-minded psychos.

Always remember and don't ever forget, to include almonds in the cookies for those pesky, unwanted neighbors. That makes the scent of almonds expected, and by the time they realize they shouldn't have accepted your housewarming gift, they're dead.

Just a tip from Good Housekeeping magazine for the psycho next door.

 

[elizaloo]

Go ahead, take a chance! There are lots of nice men around here - writers too.

I met one here years ago and married him - still plugging along 15? years later.

And, as we have an open marriage, I'm still filtering through those messages and have found a number of guys worthy of a chat....they may, or not, qualify for more. Meanwhile, I write.

There's already over a hundred responses to this thing already; I'm not going to attempt to read them all. (Emily, shouldn't you be doing some writing instead of this?)

No it's never happened to me, nor would I attempt it myself. A big problem: geographic compatibilty. Either the info is non-existent, whimsical, or extremely vague. (Like the US, for example.)

I have experienced this first-hand back in 2001, when there were dating "sites," not apps, and people used "instant messaging," not texting. The term "ghosting" had been invented yet, so I made up my own phrase: cyber-dumping. One day, a woman from Vancouver Island, British Columbia, contacted me. I think part of her motivation was that she had never been to New York and she wanted my take on it. So we had a nice time chatting for a couple of months, but we both knew that ultimately there was no further point to it.

I just submitted my latest story. What I should be doing is work . But my job has peaks and troughs. Guess which it is now?

I don't know about Emily, but I sure as shit should be.
