I'm a geek chick and found my current boyfriend via Craigslist. Note: I am bipolar and said so in my ad (some of you might prefer to call me "crazy" or even "one of those crazy bitches"). However, I am not a worthless person, and I treat people with respect, kindness, and fairness. I am good friends with several ex-boyfriends as well. So I'm not one of those psycho hose beasts.
It wasn't the first ad I'd posted, nor the first I'd posted on Craigslist. I have had mixed success finding potential boyfriends online. A *lot* of guys are just looking for a quick fuck. It's a bit daunting, as a female, to weed these guys out and find the ones who are really looking for a relationship (because let me tell ya, the guys looking for a quick fuck know they have to say they're looking for a relationship to be taken seriously).
Anyway, I posted a long rambling ad, talking about myself and my interests, being totally up-front about my bipolarity and my meds, etc. I even talked about my kid which for some is a deal-breaker. And I met a great geek guy, who is also bipolar. We have been together about 4 months and things are just peachy.
Some of us crazy chicks are actually all right. And we need love too, ya know.
