This is my new love, Joshua Brown. I met him on Facebook after only being on it for a day. He is in love with me already. I believe he falls in love quite easily since he has also asked another one of us to marry him. I met him thru her page. He must think that we would never compare notes. Rolling Eyes

This is from our chat. It isn't the most exciting exchange but it is my very first experience chatting with a lad. Feedback and tips would be appreciated.

Hello pretty, how are u doing? (He called me this when I only had a flower as my profile pic)

Hello! Thank you for your message and for adding me as your friend! I am really enjoying Facebook, it's fun! I love meeting new people!

Quote:

Yes ma too
Yes me too
So how u doing

I am doing fine, thanks! How are you?

Quote:

I am doing great

That is really good to hear!

Quote:

nice meeting u

It is very nice to meet you too

Quote:

U look so pretty and your pictures attracted me from a distance to write to u. I'm Joshua, an American citizen, i am 49 years old. I'm a widower, and i lost my wife 5 years ago.

Oh, I am so sorry about your wife! That is really sad! I live in Florida, where are you from?

Quote:

It's ok. I'm from NY City
Tell me more about u?

Oh New York, I was only there once, but I loved it! I am going to be 40 in under a month and I own a turtle ranch here in Florida. My family owns an auto parts chain also.

Quote:

That's good. Do u have kids? are u single?

I have never been married or had children. Do you have any kids?

Quote:

I don't have
I stay alone

Aww. What do you do for a living?

Quote:

I'm an engineer, a marine engineering. What about u?

Oh, does that mean that you are in the service? I have had Gundabad Turtle Ranch since I was a teen. I started it with money I made while working at my parents' auto parts chain. I really love it!

Quote:

That's good.
So tell me have u dated online before?

Oh my goodness, no. I only just joined Facebook on my friend Gina's insistence that I would love it, yesterday.
So far she is right. I have spent a lot of time just browsing thru pages and picking things that I "Like". It's been so fun!
What does a marine engineer do?

Quote:

Yea marine engineering is all about construction of bridges (he has no idea what they do...)

Oh that is really cool. Are you building one right now?

Quote:

No. But i have a contact in Turkey. I will be travelling to Turkey by next week.
contract not contact

lol I understand
Is it for a large bridge? Tell me about it because I find that I am fascinated by this. I have never met anyone who builds them before!

Quote:

My dear i don't know yet, but i think so

What do you do when you aren't building bridges? I mean for fun and such.

Quote:

Well i like playing ball
lol
u?
What is your favorite color?

I actually like video games, but rarely have time for them. On Thursday and Friday nights, I go out to a place called The Birdcage to watch my best friend perform. She is a drag queen. Their performances are so fun!
I love pink and midnight blue
you?

Quote:

Blue

nice!
what kind of "ball" do you play?

Quote:

Soccer

Oh. I don't know much about the sport. Honestly tho, I don't know much about most sports lol

Quote:

Ok

lol

Quote:

Lol
So tell me do u have anyone in life

No one. It is hard to find someone when I work dawn til dusk. And I definitely wouldn't ever be able to date anyone at my friend's club lol. Do you have anyone special?

Quote:

No i don't and i am looking forward to tell u that i adore u so much
I think i like u and i want us to be together (So soon?!)

Aww, you are so sweet, Joshua! May I call you Josh?
It is awfully soon, but I am definitely open to the idea of us being together
I would like to take it slowly tho. I don't want to be hurt.

Quote:

There is nothing to worry about ok
I'm loving and caring somebody

I certainly hope there isn't!

Quote:

Please i want u

Oo It's a little soon for that. I am very shy.

Quote:

Don't be shy ok. Do u believe in love at first sight?

Maybe, but we need to see each other in person.
Online may take me longer
But like I said, I am open to the idea.

Quote:

Yes we have to. I will see u as soon as am done with the contract ok

Sounds great! Are you in the United State right now? or over seas?

Quote:

But please u have to accept me and believe the things i said to u
yes i am in the state

I will definitely try!

Quote:

Hmmm. Definitely try? Is it a promises or what
why can u say yes
plsssssssssss

It is a promise to try lol
Just be honest with me and we won't have any problem!

Quote:

U have it

Thank you!

Quote:

U welcome
So what do u say?

This is moving awfully fast, but I will say yes!

Quote:

Thank u very much
i really appreciate it
U are the best. Kisses

aww! Kisses to you too!

Quote:

So tell me. What do u like and what do u hate?
Hello baby are u there?

I hate dishonesty, liars and cheaters. I love dogs and turtles. Obviously turtles since I have devoted my life tor raising them. I like a strong man who can hold his own with me. Also a man who isn't afraid to show his romantic/lighter side. Best of both worlds I guess you could say.
How about you?

Quote:

That's good. I hate liars, cheaters too. I love playing soccer and watching also. I love travelling

Oooh I love to travel as well. I have been to turtle shows all over! Plus Auto expos for my family business.

Quote:

That's good. I guess u love your job and u make a lot money there. Lol

lol I have a trust fund that pays my regular bills from my parents. My turtle ranch is self-sustaining right now, but I am hoping that 2015 will be the year of the turtle for me lol
I bet you make some pretty good money as well, traveling and building. It must be sort of lonely.

Quote:

Yea u are right but it will not be lonely btw both of us because both of us will be travelling together

Oh I would like that!

Quote:

Me and my wife due travel when she was alive

Oh, that is so sad. Again I am so sorry.

Quote:

So who is gonna look after your turtle ranch?
it's ok

I have an assistant and full staff to take care of them. I am just out there because I have a such a passion for them. And I only fill in at my parents' business when I am needed. Usually at the Flagship Store in Orlando, but I always feel in the way because our staff is exceptional!

Quote:

Perfect. That's great

How long do you think that the job in Turkey will last? What will you most the most about New York?

Quote:

Like i said earlier, it will depend on the job
I can't tell now

They haven't had you draw up any plans? That would seem odd to me, walking in with no guidelines set.

Quote:

Lol. Honey is a contract and i they haven't issue it to me yet
It needs prayers

Oh. I don't really believe in praying. Are you very religious?

Quote:

Why? Yes i do go to church but not regularly
U don't have so much in your profile. When do u join face book? Can u make a snap of yourself and send to to me?

I have just been brought up in a family where you work hard for your "blessings". We weren't brought up to believe in God. I can be respectful of your beliefs if you are respectful of mine, tho.

Quote:

It's ok
U don't have so much in your profile. When do u join face book? Can u make a snap of yourself and send to to me?

I can try. I did one this morning and swore it was the last. Selfies are really for teenagers and I am a grown woman. A shy grown woman.

Quote:

No i want u to send it to me, my inbox

I tried to put my Turtle ranch and stuff on my profile and it kept telling me it was not a valid profession! It is very frustrating to me! My turtles are too a viable business! I will work on my profile tho. I only joined yesterday. This is all so new to me. I have never had a man asking for my pics before. Baby-steps darling.

Quote:

Lol
It's ok
Let me not stress u baby

You are such a considerate man. I am lucky to have had you contact me!

Quote:

Me too. I am glad i met u
What time is there now?

9:21. What time for you? I go to bed soon because on the weekdays, I am up at 5am. The turtles rise early!

Quote:

Same time baby. I wanna to sleep now also because i will be leaving very early tomorrow

Ok. I hope you get a good nights sleep! Send me a message when you can!

Quote:

Ok honey. Have a nice sleep

Nn

Quote:

Love u
Hugs and kisses

****************

And that took 2 hours. TWO HOURS!

ETA:
Now with more lad-pain! Mass-Bait now in progress in SHH&T!

Posted: Wed Feb 25, 2015 9:37 pm

Oh you home wrecker you. Gina thought she was his one true love!

I think it's because I asked him about the Ice Hockey ! He didn't know anything about New York Rangers so I had to change the subject...

But he asked if I believe in love at first sight... oh the joy of a question when you can just say 'NO'. !

He has unfriended me and bocked me and all to go and love another woman... from my friends list !

Romance baiting is tedious and takes time. But it is fun and you wasted 2 hrs of his night !

Enjoy Joshua... just don't mention the British Government ! He is the identical twin of the Chancellor of the Exchequer....but I'm sure he doesn't want anyone to know.

Oh and as a Marine Engineer he is going to Turkey to build a bridge over a road !

Posted: Wed Feb 25, 2015 9:56 pm

He has no clue what a marine engineer even does. Laughing

I said I would be in love with him just to shut him up. I caved! I am so ashamed. I am also ashamed of stealing him away from my dear friend Gina. I hope she can find it in her heart to forgive me! I will probably pull him back a bit in an effort to slow him down. Tell him I am still not as sure of our love as he is.

Who knows. Two hours was just too long tho!

Posted: Wed Feb 25, 2015 11:19 pm

Two hours on Facebook is like a week on Chat!* Way to go, Bunny!!!

Facebook is fun for sending multiple photos in the chat window and ask each time, "did you just get that? It isn't showing up on my side. I'll resend." Over. And over. And over..... I did that once with a really obnoxious photo of a dog holding flowers. The lad loved it!! I think.

* I made up that statistic. I am not ashamed to admit it.

Posted: Thu Feb 26, 2015 12:08 am

This is why I don't do chat-time consuming! Let me know if Roscoe is required.

Posted: Thu Feb 26, 2015 1:47 am

This guy popped up to people I may know but never came to me. Ember looks so kind, I think Wink

2hr Chat LOL I never did, usually excuse by watching TV or work brought home!!

So funny he does not even know what marine engineer do, building bridge??

BM, you should teach him that real marine engineer makes burgers for sharks:)

Posted: Thu Feb 26, 2015 3:44 pm

Get him onto email BM before you lose the will to live Shocked

Btw, I love your new avatar, psycho bunny who eats lads for breakfast.

Posted: Fri Feb 27, 2015 6:27 am

@Capone I gave Steven a poke. I will see what's up with him.

@Kaede Perhaps I could talk him into feeding himself to a shark. Wink

@Tigerlily I was so happy when he got tired! I sent him my email addy so he can contact me that way. Soon he will have to change his timezone since he is traveling from NY to Turkey. Hopefully he won't be able to chat. Smile

Thanks on the avatar! Another of my spirit animals! ~Grr!

You might ask him what the difference is between a marine engineer and a civil engineer.

Posted: Tue Mar 03, 2015 2:52 pm

I did GardenLady. He said Civil Engineer worked and Marine Engineer boss.

So, I pretended to be impressed.

Master Baiter Joined: 05 Sep 2014 Posts: 139

I guess I missed that.

Posted: Tue Mar 03, 2015 5:49 pm

No... I hadn't put his info about his lecturing me anywhere.... he is not good. I think he may be a starter. Bunny May.... he may turn out to be a not very good 'lad' and come clean as being a scammer. Then it gets even more fun !

Has he been back on Bunny?

Had the very strangest afternoon today... sometimes when you think things can't get any more odd.. they do !

So I guess I'll be blocking young Italians next time I log on there and not accepting random friend requests anymore.

I did get to add another one to my Embarassed

total !

Posted: Tue Mar 03, 2015 10:35 pm

He said he had to leave Sunday for Turkey, so I poked him again today. I also gave him my email address. Hopefully he uses that instead of wanting to chat!

We'll see!

(Lol on your new Italian friend DA! Razz

)

Posted: Tue Mar 03, 2015 11:36 pm

You completely rock-I hate chat. On the other hand, if I ever get one of my vlads to agree, I'll be all over it and posting like crazy.

Bunny Mae: you are an awesome baiter

Posted: Wed Mar 04, 2015 7:06 am

^^ She is, indeed! Cool

Posted: Wed Mar 04, 2015 10:36 am

So... when he gets to Turkey let us have bets as to what will happen. Much as I would like him to be eaten alive my a whale that asks for $2000 to be sent by Western Union and he would spit him out I don't think so.

I am going for theft of tools from Turkish Bridge and needs money as he can't work.

any more theories.....

Go get him Bunny .... just be warned of PM'd pictures !

Posted: Wed Mar 04, 2015 12:14 pm

D'aww, Thanks guys! Embarassed

After sending him my email a few times he has finally caught on. I haven't been doing this long, but this is by far the most lackluster email I have ever seen. I think he may be new at this, DA, but so am I, so on we go!

Quote:

Hi sweetie,

I love u so much Sweetie. U are the best thing that ever happened to me. U are like the best poetry ever composed, the best song ever played, the best picture ever painted. I never thought that someone like me could get so lucky!

I love u more than my life, more than my world. I love u more and more each day and that is the most wonderful feeling any man can ever hope to experience.

Forever Yours,

Ember isn't isn't impressed. I only had a few questions and they were so easy for him! I hadn't started asking him about the bridge yet! Let's see if he can answer 3 easy questions. I will probably get, "Yes. Good. Yes."

My goodness! This is still an awful lot for me to comprehend, but I am so happy to hear from you! Did you make it to Turkey safely? How was your flight? Are you eating well?

Write to me soon!
Ember

Start placing bets now. Knowing this guy, it wont be as creative as getting eaten by a whale and then held captive by it. Razz

Posted: Wed Mar 04, 2015 5:34 pm

Oh bless his little scammy cotton socks. He is just opening up his soul to you.
He obviously has the e-book of scamming and this weeks lesson was coy and paste! He was away maybe when it mentioned reading the email.

Well... I hope he gets to the Bridge ok... well, the place where they are going to build the bridge.

Vicent got his phone stolen first then all the tools. So hope Joshua isn't so unlucky.

Looking forward to your next posting....

can't wait for the next installment. Do Marine Engineers supervise the building of underwater bridges. There are alot of fish in the sea.

Posted: Thu Mar 05, 2015 4:13 am

Josh has responded, but only answered one question. One out of three isn't awful, I guess. Laughing

I am giving him a few days to settle in on the job before I start asking any real specifics. I suppose I will need to do some reading up on bridges to get a few good questions. Aside from the obvious "Why isn't a Marine Engineer working on a ship?!" Rolling Eyes

Quote:

Hi baby, how are u doing? Hope u are fine but as for me i am ok because i have a save trip.
Baby how is your work? hope everything is going well. I want u to put me in your prayers
concerning the contract that brought me to Turkey. And i want u to have it in mind that i
love u. Hope to here from u soon. Hugs and kisses.

Hihi Joshua!

I am doing well! Work is good, as always. The turtles are so much fun and such good companions. Oedipus, my turtle herding chihuahua who goes by Odie, got in a good workout today. He is a hard worker! He got his own pulled chicken slider tonight. He was very excited! We are now watching some TV while I catch up on business and of course, email!

I am so glad you got to Turkey safely! Have you seen your bridge job yet? It is over water or a road? Is it for animals? We should really consignment you to build bridges in Florida for our wildlife! So many alligators, snakes and turtles die trying to cross busy roads. we should have bridges just for them! I don't know how we would get them to cross at the bridges tho, because we can't even get them to cross at the special crossing signs. Sad

Hope you enjoyed your day and you are eating well!
Hugs!
Ember

Posted: Thu Mar 12, 2015 4:36 am

Now don't get too excited for this update. Steven (is that is name? I forgot who I was posting.... Oh well. It won't be exciting no matter whose name shows up today) is making excuses for not wanting to email. The putz!

GDI! It's Joshua! Do you know how awful it is to lose a bet to an obese Chihuahua named Toad?! Grrr... >:{ Anyhow, I was right. He is still looking dull.

Quote:

Hello dear, how are u doing? hope u are good. I don't normally have time to reply Mails.
Please can i still have your phone number so that we can be talking on phone? Or we can
be chatting on face book. Bye for now, hope to read from u.

Wait... You have time to chat for hours but not to write an email? OHHH NO. That ain't gonna work!

Joshua!

How nice to hear from you. I am confused tho. You are saying that you have time to chat on Facebook (which took up 2 hours of our time), but you don't have a moment to write me a well thought out email? You do know that we are 7 hours apart now that you are in Turkey. When am I supposed to find time to accommodate your time schedule without skipping chores on the ranch? And besides all of that, chatting is for teenaged girls and I wish to be treated as a woman. I am truly sorry that you feel like you can't just do this one thing for me.

Ember

You tell him Ember! You go Guuuurl!

Ember is right. OF COURSE I'M RIGHT!

Quote:

Hi Baby.
U are right baby (duh!) because i can drop u a mail on here and do what i want to do. But i will also like to have your number so that one of this days i can call to hear your voice. How is work? Hope everything is fine with u? I can't wait to be with u. I need to sleep now is late here. Hope to hear from u soon. Hugs and kisses to u, love u baby.

Ember feels close enough to Joshua, or whoever, to share a cherished family memory that may have actually happened in her very own childhood. Kleenexs ready. It's gonna get sniffy in here, or it might not, but you can save the tissue for when you get a bug on your wall or you have to sneeze. You will thank me later.

Hi Honey!
I would love to have you hear my voice, but I am afraid it will have to be when we are face to face. I wear 2 hearing aids. Pink. Very cute! But they ring something awful when I put a phone next to them.

Things here are lovely at the turtle ranch. They are so peaceful to live with and work with. My mom would disagree! I had a turtle aquarium in my bedroom. Unfortunately, my turtle, Behmlander, caught a cold and I knew very little about turtles back then. He would cough, wheeze and blow noisy bubbles all night loud. Didn't ever wake me up until that special part of the evening when my mom would come crashing down the hall. "EMBER SHUT THAT GOD DAMNED TURTLE UP OR SO HELP ME GOD!!!" Then she would slam my door and go back to her own room and everyone would sleep peacefully. This happened every night for a few weeks while I searched for a turtle or wildlife vet. We didn't have the internet so it wasn't very easy. I finally found one and it turns out that Behmlander just had a cold. Three weeks later we were all sleeping better without my mom screeching down the hall every night. That's when I knew that my life was all about turtles!

How did you get into bridges?

Hugs!
Ember

I am hoping to receive a deeply felt letter like I wrote. Maybe he had a pet bridge but the city wanted to knock it down. Yet Joshua the Young chained himself to it! HOW BRAVE! Or is cousin Ume was like, "Dude say you are an marine engineer and they will never question it. Listen here Ume. We question it. Whatcha got now? ooooo!

Posted: Thu Mar 12, 2015 8:57 pm

Love those dancing bunnies !

He's a funny one isn't he? Just can't work him out. Full on one time, nothing for ages.... yet he wants a phone number !

Make ready for having something stolen that he can't afford to replace !

Oh and I am disappointed in the pink hearing aids... I thought at the very least turtle-green ones !

Posted: Thu Mar 12, 2015 10:39 pm

OH Snap! Turtle green with my ginger hairs! What was I not thinking??? Luckily, Ember has a very special 40th birthday coming next week and those are now at the top of my list!

Hi Honey,
How are u doing, hope u are fine? I am not working now, i am here for a contract and it has not been awarded to me. Am still fighting for it. (Wait, what?) As i am writing u now, i will be leaving in 30 minutes time for the meeting. I need u in my prayers.

Quote:

Obviously Honey, it is my special pleasure to highlight u on how much i have missed u despite the fact that we just met each other, and there's no other way to mark this,order than sharing my thoughts of love and affection with u. As i humbly write this note,i find it increasingly more difficult to hold back all the feelings of joy and happiness that has suddenly became part of me since i met u, Instead as the days rolls bye,i became more soaked and indebted to this feelings. Love u so much. Hugs and kisses.

Looks like someone has finally found a script for email.

Hihi Joshua!

You don't even have the contract yet? Wow! That must be nerve wracking to wait. I hope you find out soon! I am nervous for you!

Tell me more about your family as we wait. Both of my parents are still together and have lived in St. Cloud, Florida, their whole lives. They own a chain of auto-parts stores that I work at occasionally if they are short people. My brother Brice is 42 and married and he lives in St. Cloud as well with his partner Alex. Right now they are expecting their first child via surrogate. We are all very excited and their surrogate is a lovely woman. How do you feel about gays being married and having children? Brice and Alex travel up and down the East Coast to keep an eye on my parents' stores. We all own an equal share, but I still think of it as Mom and Dad's stores since I mostly work on my ranch lol. That is about all about them for now.

I am not as good as you are at expressing my feelings, but I will try as they grow. You make me feel very special and I appreciate that.

Don't forget to tell me about your family!
Good luck on the contract!
Kisses!
Ember
