That's what I want

[spirited_lizard]

I'm thinking about getting a credit card on my own, finally. My brother already got one a few weeks ago, but I don't want to use his, I want my own. I'm a big girl. hehe Well, I have thought about it for quite some time. I never thought that I would need one, but I guess, nowadays, there's almost nothing you can't do without one. And the main

It's possible to live without a credit card. ;-) We haven't had one in nearly 5 years and I don't regret it a bit. We do have a DEBIT card from our bank, which looks and often works like a credit card (including allowing us to shop online), except instead of charging something, it withdraws from our bank account.

But yeah, you CAN go without credit cards. ;-)

Yeah, I never had one before. And I have a bank card, as well, but I can't shop in foreign countries with it.

Are there different kinds of bank cards? Just curious because some friends in Canada can use theirs while others can't, so I wonder if it depends on the card, account type or bank?

[spirited_lizard]

Well, I have a cash card from the bank, is that like a debit card? I can use it for getting cash at an ATM of course or I could use it for paying when I'm shopping. But not online shopping. It's not like a credit card.

If you decide to meet this guy, do NOT go on your own. He may seem nice online but could be a freaking weirdo.

Also, never use a debit card online. If someone gets your details, they can clear out your bank account. Nearly happened to me last year so I only ever use my credit card online.

Agreed and do it somewhere very visible, very public - like a cafe. Do not go anywhere private with him.

[spirited_lizard]

Oh no, that I would never do for a first meeting. Maybe I'll just say that I'm at a cafe with a friend and if he wants to join, he's welcome, or something. And if he refuses, I have my answer, too. ;)

[raynedanser]

Honestly, I would do that for the first SEVERAL meetings. And if it's possible there, I'd have a background check run on him. Here, if we pay a small fee to the local state government, we can find out someone's criminal background. Isn't it sad it's come to that these days?

I'm tempted to get a credit card too, but... nah, still resisting! lol

Hopefully that guy won't turn out to be a weirdo!

[spirited_lizard]

I'm excited how it will be to have one. :)

Yeah, mostly they turn out to be weirdos. LOL

ich hab leider immer noch keine Kreditkarte aber ich verdien ja auch nicht viel von dem her bringt es ja gar nichts *g

[spirited_lizard]

haha Ja, ich glaub das war auch das einzige was ich richtig gelesen hab! :D Er ist aber auch süß, mann, mann... Ich bin auch so. Ein wenig schüchtern, obwohl ich manchmal denke, ich brauch es gar nicht zu sein. Ich sollte mehr aus mir rausgehen, glaub ich. Aber tja, ich trau mich nicht. :P

Ja, das hätte ich auch mal gemacht. Mich da tage- oder wochenlang hingestellt. hihi Aber ich hätte sicher Kontakt halten wollen, nicht wie er sagt, dass sie sich dann nicht mehr gemeldet hat.

[lil_miss_coolio]

hehehe geht mir genau so XD

jaaaa sicher...ich wär da sicherlich auch in kontakt geblieben...ich meine...hallo? Wieviel mal passiert einem dass man mit einem Schauspieler der auch noch gut aussieht essen gehen kann? Da würd ich mich ganz sicher wieder melden...keine Frage. Ich würde gerne wissen was die sich dabei überlegt hat sich nicht mehr zu melden hahaha XD

[spirited_lizard]

Seh ich genauso. Wann hat man so eine Chance?! Wenn ich mal auf bekannte Leute treffe bzw. in Zukunft treffen sollte, dann denke ich mir schon irgendwie "hol alles raus aus diesem Treffen was geht". LOL Es könnte eine einmalige Chance gewesen sein. ;)
