Hmmm, Not a bad Idea at all but *sighs* I'm a cougar and I dont "date".
I court, I mate heavily and I leave *shrugs* sorry, thats how I am.Just a
cougar thats all.

Not yet to my knowledge but I threatened to host such a thing soon as I
get my business up and running and a number did a number on my Hotmail box
asking me the furry equivalent of "are we there yet?".
Sooner or later either I or someone else will get around to it.

I do think that a dating service for furs online would be a very excellent and
positive thing in the community. I think the coolest thing about it would be
that you could find someone with a similiar interest and you wouldn't have to
hide a great thing about your personality. Plus too, since furryness is
something that people in "normal" life don't really understand, it won't be
something that you'll have to explain later on down the line. I have to say
as well that meeting people in bars is almost always a bad thing and sometimes
you have the misfortune of coming into someone's prescence that isn't exacly
of the most open minded persuation. This isn't always the case, but I think
that an online meeting place where you can exchange emails or AIM locals and
talk is a great thing. If you can't talk to your future mate than you really
don't have any need to get together. Granted sometimes silence is golden to
share with your mate, but I still think you should be able to talk each
other's ears off. I met my girlfriend online and she's probably one of the
most beautiful persons I've met. I honestly think it was because we met
online and really talked. I do hope that this idea does come into existence
because I think it would be really great.

Hm. Six in Ottawa (plus one who's listed but actually just moved recently).

I think its a great idea. This panther is all for it and it. Now if I just
knew how to make it -_-.
Oh well I'm sure someone could help. I think this would help out a lot of furs.

Well Baloo knows how to program. Perhaps he can make one work.

I really have to agree.
Though being furry would not be an absolute prerequisite in my book for a date
or a relationship, it would definitely be a huge, HUGE plus :::laughs:::
If such a thing existed, id even be tempted to use it :::giggles::::

Yes- I can say for myself that it is almost unthinkable that I would
date or mate a nonfur. It's a good idea, in my opinion.

*elegant feline shudder* I know- I had an opportunity at a recent con
(MFM) to go to a gay bar for the first time in my life ('edieplayer' is
male, as they say), but I didn't go. There was certainly some chance for
being whistled at appreciatively etc., but I'd been occasionally seeing
someone who got to drinking heavily and I wanted no more of that, thank
you.

It's interesting- there are all sorts of people with all sorts of
needs. My own needs are that I must be able to talk in great depth, about
emotional or personal things or whatever- but much of the time I need
_space_, and some people are not capable of providing that, or sensing
when I need to have it. One looks at TV and movies and media and develops
a sense that real romance is only found through grand, clingy, fawning
attention- which may suit some humans but does not suit this cat one bit,
and I am grateful I never found that.
Years ago, this whole subject caused me much pain. A year ago and a
couple years ago, I was finding some peace through getting used to my
sexuality. A few _days_ ago... well, I don't even really know how it
happened (what on earth started that?) but I met someone at a con (MFM)
who may identify himself if he wishes- an ALFer who's read a lot of my
posts but is a bit quiet... and light conversation grew into very deep
conversation grew into bed-sharing, and in following days I had a question
answered for me- if there was someone who could act like a 'mate' but not
the clingy hollywood stereotype, rather something I could live with, what
would that be like? I found out. It was very much like being with someone
fully aware of your presence but completely at ease and free of the
tendency to cling and be 'all tied up' in you.
*snicker* at least _that way...
So... _very_ interesting. I had been dating a couple, and was mostly
interested in playing mistress to the already mated, simply because I knew
quite well I couldn't handle being anyone's other half- a phrase I use
very intentionally, as I require as much independence as the lonest of
wolves. I don't know what the future holds for me simply because I
wouldn't be so vain as to think I could predict it- but I know that
something is different now, because my sense of what is possible has been
expanded, and although I am still talking to the other people in my life
about what's just occured, my vocabulary has been expanded by one word...
"Mine".
And I may just use it, too- and that is beyond all imagining- and, it
is all because I placed myself in a situation where I was prepared to be
real and open myself to meeting other furs- and I did.
If a furry dating service can help that happen for others, it is worth
any effort.
