I was contacted by Yahoo twice and informed that a user named funkychic wanted to add me as a contact. It also stated that she was a fan of my questions and answers and wanted to link to me so she could find me for other information. I accepted but sent a message asking her if she was sure? I do not even know what a contact list is or what it does. Well, today I recieve a threat from funkychic and her mother stating if I did not remove her that they would contact athorities. I did remove her, but kept the E-mails from Yahoo and her to prove what I say. I would really like to know if this happened to anyone else. I am almost as confused as I am angry, and I do not know if I should be angry at this girl, or at yahoo. Any info would be appreciated.

It seams to me that people only date from inside their circle. A friend, an acquaintant, a friend of a friend, a person at work, or even your mother's best friends child. With all the failed marriages in the USA today do you think it would be more prudent to reach out to meet someone fresh, or different than the norm? On my attempts to chat, converse or otherwise introduce myself to anyone in the USA I am met with COLD, hating responses. Have we become so afraid of people, that we will never take the chance that "This one might be the one." What are your thoughts? How did you meet your spouse, or X-spouse? I am just curious, because I actually had to meet and marry a woman from a different country, who had no pre-conceived notion of what she heard, or what somebody else says. I LOVE her very much, and she and I are very happy. I am just wishing this on everyone in the USA. I am only hoping this question will make people think more about how they choose a mate, or a date.

In yahoo answers, are you offended by children asking the advice of other children? I got on this sight by accident, and found that I could use my years of experience in many areas to assist other people in confirming what people have told them. Now, more and more children are coming into the sight, and stating they want advice from other children, Do you still give advice even though they do not want it?

Who here actually looks like their Avatar? I am really curious, Do you pick what you want to look like, or is it a close representation of you????
