ORIGINAL: addicted2it I just love the profiles that say that you must be local or able to relocate, and no LDRs, but they fail to give their location other than the state (and I don't mean state of mind) they are in. Oh, jeez, I see you're in California -- same thing down here in TX. I realize many people never leave their hometown, but they still should know from 7th grade geography that these states are larger than many countries! My favorite was one recently here in TX that had nothing but the state and she even said in her profile that she'd immediately delete any messages asking where in TX she lived, since she was trying to be safe. We don't need your street address, but it would sure be handy if you could narrow it down to a couple thousand square miles! Yeah, I've ranted about the same thing before, and 'ya know what I usually get? Women who say that they have been harassed and stalked, so they are being very careful not to give out their location. But then there is no photo of them, and of course their sceen name isn't their real name. Texas is the largest state per square mile than any other, and California my come in second or third. But even if we had an idea her general location, it would help us to decide whether it was even practical to make the trip to wherever they are.
