texplorer Posted February 28, 2002 Posted February 28, 2002 Nadia is spanish for "no one." coincidence hmmm.... I like the Twight quote! I have been there! Nadia if your hot you might want to mention that too maybe even with a pic included. Your sure to get the inquiries after that. Quote
mtnnut Posted February 28, 2002 Posted February 28, 2002 spelling correction police here. Actually the spelling in spanish is "nadie" for no one. Regarding the original question, more information about what kind of climbing you want to do could help generate some responses. Quote
icegirl Posted February 28, 2002 Posted February 28, 2002 Showing up at a pub club and meeting some of these guys would be a good start. Every Tuesday, always a a good time... Other women do go, http://staff.washington.edu/ljames/pubclub.html for proof. I've found a couple good climbing partners on this site, don't get discouraged by the spray boys... icegirl Quote
Dru Posted February 28, 2002 Posted February 28, 2002 the spray boys make the best partners icegirl well except for trask..... [ 02-28-2002: Message edited by: Dru ] Quote

Sparky Posted March 4, 2002 Posted March 4, 2002 So, are all the males on this site pathetically lonely for female companionship, or are they all just inept? You gotta wonder, with all of the weak responses to this gals request for a climbing partner. Quote

Seems hard to draw the conclusion people are pathetically lonely when they aren't falling over themselves to take this gal out, right? Inept is another issue though... Quote
Dwayner Posted March 4, 2002 Posted March 4, 2002 Vegetable dude, he say: "Seems hard to draw the conclusion people are pathetically lonely when they aren't falling over themselves to take this gal out, right? I think that part of the problem is, that with all the phony internet names or "avatars" floating around, people have become skeptical and cautious. Some might be be thinking that our new friend Nadia could be just another smart-ass dude trolling for suckers. I agree with icegirl: Nadia: show up at one of these pub-club things and meet people in-person. It will give you a much better idea about who you're dealing with. Otherwise, good luck. Quote
erik Posted March 4, 2002 Posted March 4, 2002 i got one thing to say too sparky......whatever dude!!! 1st of all this nadia person pm'ed me at the suggestion of some canadian chap, and started asking some harmless questions...i answered them(why not i'm at work) but she(?!~) comes to the conclusion that i am a soloer and thats what i was going to show her(?!~) to do!?!?!?! but whatever for that too, cause it ain't no 'g' thang............ Quote
allthumbs Posted March 4, 2002 Posted March 4, 2002 I agree with icegirl and dwayer. If I wanted to meet climber partners I'd definately make the effort to attend some functions with the troops. Seems like a no brainer. Quote
vegetablebelay Posted March 5, 2002 Posted March 5, 2002 OK, I see you've changed you're original post. We'll need confirmation from 2 cc.com regulars to verify that indeed... ....oh, nevermind. The Pub Clubs are Tuesday nights and usually advertised in the "Climber's Board". Apparantly tomorrow's is in Tacoma. [ 03-04-2002: Message edited by: vegetablebelay ] Quote
Biff Posted March 5, 2002 Posted March 5, 2002 So in order for an admittedly inexperienced woman to be assured that she'll be safe climbing with y'all, she should first meet you in a bar. That's not logical. I've climbed with several folks that I've met on this site, and yet never met them for drinks, first. I think Sparky has a good point.Makes more sense to meet her @ Barneys' Rubble than at the Swiss. Quote

Well Biff first off, I haven't seen your post volunteering to take this inexperienced person out, and secondly you are missing the point about her showing up to Pub Club. It's not so she'll feel better, rather so a potential partner will have an idea of what he/she will be getting into before giving up a treasured day off to ropegun and or instruct. Quote
CleeshterFeeshter Posted March 5, 2002 Posted March 5, 2002 Veggie and Biff, I think you have both missed the point. Good drunks usually make good climbing partners. ie, a person's true nature comes out when they are intoxicated ( are they a mean drunk?) Also, the hypoxic brain, whether it be at altitude or alcohol induced is pretty much the same. What better way to see how your 8KM peak partner will react at altitude. Quote
Biff Posted March 6, 2002 Posted March 6, 2002 Well, veggie dude, I have offered, via PM, to go climbing with the gal. Although I've climbed for years, I dig taking out "newbies". Something about the joy of imparting the love of climbing to others just makes me misty. Whether or not they're hot. Quote
