Soo i post in the meetup section. Turns out that a nuns panties gets more views than posts in that section and it's not specific to offlliners(I am interested in meeting all kinds of marleters).

Why don't we do this, post where you are from and that you are willing to meet and then uuummm i don't know, we'll figure it out as we go along lol. I'm just sick of being stuck at the desk with no one to talk to.

I'm located in South Florida, between Ft. Lauderdale and Miami

    Time is money. I'm all for networking, but as long as it has a purpose. Time is the one asset we don't get back, so if I'm going to meetup with other marketers, it needs to be worth my time to "unhook" from what I'm focused on.

    That's me, at least.

    lets start with WHERE are you located ?

    I can always host , i have plenty of room... if people don't mind
    driving out to ormond.

    however, if u say you have phone skills, be for warned... i might just
    hand you a head set, and say " prove it "

      Lol, South Florida, FT laud/Miami area. Feel like an idiot for not putting that lol.

      If i'm ever in your area i'll let you know so we can possibly link up.

      To your last comment, that would be great! I always love a challenge, that's why I wanted to get this started.

    I completely agree, that's why I want to find network here on wf. Some of us here are all on the same page, or trying to be at least. I pretty much want to find good people to share ideas and have conversations with. I get more ideas while having intelligent & relevant conversations than I do at any other times. That's where the purpose is, I don't care about your kids, why you hate/love your wife or anything else lol. I'll listen if your super depressed as long as it doesn't go over 10 mins.

    People who hang out in forums do it instead of going to country clubs, because this is the way we like to socialize for whatever reasons, spoken or unspoken.... Nothing wrong with that.

    Im not ugly, dont have any insecurities. I just like it this way.

    There are enough people taking up my time in the offline world...

    Its the beauty of the internet. A way to socialize at your own will and not be emerged upon or hung up for hours on the phone... People give each other freedom to just post or not at will with no commitment or obligation.

    You turn off your skype? No big deal, no one is going to come pound your door down, they understand, you dont feel like socializing.

    I would like to meet some warriors, but I dont want to spend hours on the phone with people, or have meeting obligations....I like to just come in and out as I please.

    We are here, because we like it this way....If ones main desire is to meet up, this is not a very targeted market for meeting others with like minds, though there are exceptions.

      Hey John,

      I just made the title that way because I knew it would get it more views. Controversy sells here on wf lol, I think more time gets put into thread titles than whats inside of them. Nothing wrong with online interaction, im on here everyday day, but nothing beats a face to face and why not make friends with those locally that share similar interests. There are many people on here the would be great to go grab a beer with, some of us are just too far apart. There are also many of us new to the game that don't know anyone personally that has im or offline experience (myself included). I agree on the whole time thing and all, but when we get into ruts (which we all do) theres nothing like a face to face with someone who can encourage you.

      Hey Cpayne,

      I'm in Hollywood but am in dt and south beach often. I'm going to add you on skype.
