Let's have a LDR until Burning Man 2015!

Imagine how great that would be to start a long distance friendship and or romance and become close and then finally meet at the burn. We can be penpals even. Best friends. Whatever happens... I'd love that.

So here's my personals ad, or whatever. Message back if you want to do this, and be fully committed to it if we decide to do it!

I fall in love with everyone I meet. I'm pretty depressed living in the default world. Deep down I am 17 years old at heart and extremely silly. I like to start huge projects and finish them. My favorite hobby is making out. Last year was my first burn and it was glorious. It was glorious before I even got through the gate. My favorite moment was when me and my new Alaskan friends found a kissing booth sign and all stood behind it and yelled out stuff like "vegan kisses, gluten free kisses, our kisses will cure cancer, non diseased kisses" etc. We literally were there making out with everybody for 3 hours or so. My face hurt from smiling so hard. I don't believe in traditional '""relationship""" rules, I'm not monogamous, I'm not heterosexual, I'm not really sexual. I'm too much of an artist to fit in anywhere, but I can pull it off. I work a lot and don't have good friends anymore. I don't function so well anymore, I feel like all my time is being wasted but I can't make myself do anything that I want to do. I'm evil at heart but I stop myself from acting out mean things. I'm super passionate and keep most things to myself. I usually have a hard time talking out loud to people.. I get really nervous. The worst feeling ever is being misunderstood (besides a lot of things), and I feel it a lot. I'm a huge flirt and will stop for nobody. I don't want to have my cake and eat it too.... More like I must, at any cost, have every possible potential / imaginable cake and have all of all of them fed to me by sexy middle eastern guys while being fanned by peacock feathers. I'm a princess that likes to suffer in the wilderness. If you want to research me or see pictures, facebook.com/jordansavannahjohnson

Love, Jordan

What the hell is an LDR? Sounds like a social disease to me.

Long distance relationship/romance?

Don't bring those peacock feathers to the burn.

(Blood in the water thread starters, anyway?)

Can confirm.

I started a LDR at/after my first burn. It's wonderful expect for the being on different continents and in different timezones most of the time part...

Since you're so extremely polyamorous, why don't you just talk to everyone on eplaya like everyone else does?

But taking your offer at face value... you sound like one of those really-fun-for-a-while but crazy psycho bitches from hell. Trust me I know a whole lot about this. I've actually spent more time & money on them in my life than I have on old cars and I've crashed a lot more of them into walls or off cliffs too.

Therefore, an "LDR" is probably ideal! But I'll let someone younger and dumber step up.

Capt., I want to have a LDR with your wife. What's her name? I was a racecar widow for 10 years. We might have something in common. Plus that will get me a few feet closer to you. Every time I've seen you, you shy away. I can't get one sentence out of you. (Maybe this is a blessing. Perhaps I wouldn't like the sentence.) Or maybe I'm off-putting. Yes. I can be scarey. Post your current address here. I'll send her dried flowers and cd's of love songs. kiss, kiss, ratty whom should be posting in the drunk posting thread.

This is definitely the best approach, Jordan, if you don't get any suitable offers.

We tease and fight and get cranky, but there are some people on ePlaya who are infinitely worth knowing in a platonic sense whether or not they are willing or able to romance you before they meet you.

Your "personal ad" is chock full of red flags!!
You say you're depressed, don't have good friends anymore, evil at heart but stop yourself from acting out mean things... the "More like I must, at any cost, have every possible potential / imaginable cake" thing, describing yourself as a Princess... expecting someone to commit themselves to this without even knowing you...

These things are big swirling tropical storms on the Doppler weather radar, when read by strangers.
Hurricane parties do start out fun...

It's not a bad overall thing. I have certain friends on eplaya that I have a lot more conversation and friendship with via private message than just the regular public board messages. Some I have nothing in common with that I just plain get along with. Some I have lots in common with. We met through eplaya and we do get together in person on the playa and even off the playa when possible.
Most of them probably like Charlie, the First Mate, more than me, but she doesn't participate in any social media at all... but whatever...

Just jump on in, read the topics that interest you, pipe up when you feel like you've got something to say or a question, and pretty soon you'll naturally find the people you seem to get along with even better than the others.

That's pretty much how this place works.

We have a "Faces To Go With Names" thread... I guess we could do a "Boobs & Dongs" one.

What about those of us (not speaking for myself) that are both boobs and dongs.

Ah Fishy, You said it as I talked myself out of it

Way to go for anyone demeaning enough to say it that way Capt.

Breasts and Cocks put it a bit higher notch I think
and higher is pleasing

There's a well-known and very funny introduction to Burning Man video where the host uses that phrase several times, it was just an obscure reference.
Sorry to offend your snivelly, over-sensitive little girlie feelings.

Jesus. Go douche your meat curtains.

To divert further from the thread drift, I'll mention that every year, we have a special motorcycle run on January first, called the Frosty Balls ~ Chilly Boobs run.
Sadly, there's a big 'winter' storm rolling in, to hit here right around Wednesday and Thursday. This sort of thing severely reduces our numbers. I don't mind riding in the snow, but rain and puddles make for a miserably cold ride.
So, I'm hoping for either very cold, dry snow, or clear skies. Not rain and puddles.
*fingers crossed*

This would be great!!! After the 2015 Burn you could then start a thread, "Most disappointing day at the Burn".
My strong point lies, it appears, more with the LD than with the R.
This past weekend I went to a show at the Fillmore in SF. A lovely woman who had previously dated the writer/actor Sam Shepard greeted me at the door, kissed my cheek, took my arm, told me that she was now considering getting divorced because of me, and she was serious. She bought me a drink, we went and sat at her table, and then she introduced me to her husband. Nice guy. Also at the table was the nutso boyfriend of this girl I have asked out repeatedly on a date, and we go out all the time, just never on a date, and now she has this guy. And he is also sitting at the table. He leaves for a moment and the woman asked me where he went, so I tell her the honest truth, "I don't give a fuck where he is." She said that was a side to me she had never seen, I think the divorce is off. On stage is the girl I asked out along with this smoking hot guitar player who I have a heavy crush on, and she really likes me (you should hear her version of the song "Little Red Riding Hood" that she dedicated to me). Of course she is in another band, where she plays with her husband and her possibly female lover. So, yeah, things going great on the near distance relationship front. Now that I think about it, maybe a LTR would just disrupt the ship of romance I already got floating
