    Mod Note: I've merged the PH and PS versions of this thread and xposted them, instead. Also, if you want to do more missed connections type things, post them at the thread linked to below, which I've stickied for a bit to see if it takes off. we're not going to create another board at this time, so this is your chance to prove your love for missed connections on brooklynian, folks.

    Stella here - been traveling and just read thru the rather lively exchange in response to my Soccer Dad posting. Wow- who knew this was going to cause such a stir? To answer some questions: Yes, I'm female. No, I'm not agressive - and WHAT does that mean anyway? Am just keeping my eyes open to possibilities! What, only men are allowed to do that? Yes, I'm single and SO not int'd in breaking up any marriages for crissake! Um, that's why I asked if he was single. I'm divorced 10 yrs myself, kid in college, and NOT afraid of men with kids, but that's prolly bc I've got my own and such things don't scare me anymore... And no, he hasn't written, so I'm guessing he's not the message board type - and yeah, WHERE else was I to turn? And yes, DAMN it's tough mtg people - what was I supposed to do - jump into his car and say "heh" - ? Btw, it was his silver hair that did it, I'll add, bc yes, he lkd to be in his mid-40's also. Anyway, am hoping you all start posting to the missed connnections sticky! great idea. :)

    No need to defend yourself. You did no wrong.

    Have you dated guys with kids before? The experience has made me VERY scared of doing it again (I have kids). I'm not having a go; just curious.

    No prob, Daver. Boils down to the potential minefield of "blended families." It's an awful lot to take on - particularly for the kids.

    Other than the Marcia's football-in-the-nose incident, the Brady kids did okay.

    **EDIT:

    Wow, the image above was there for the first 20 minutes or so after posting, but now the image is coming up b0rked.

    Guess the site hosting it (ytmnd.com) has stepped up their bandwidth leech radar.

    Here's a link to it in all its glory, for those nostalgically inclined:
