+UKCacheMag Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Hi im single and looking for a girl who likes geocaching....the last one got as far as the edge of the wood before she complained it was cold wet and muddy..... Quote Link to comment
+Starbugs Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 This could be an entire new type of cache, you could have prospective girlfriends/boy friends at different co-ords and you have to find them a sort of multi-love cache - not sure about the FTF though Quote Link to comment
+HazelS Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 (edited) A bit like This cache then? Had lots of fun with this one! Seriously though... there are lots of couples who have met through caching, I can think of 3 without even thinking, so I'm sure there must be tonnes more out there! I'd suggest to you that you keep on eventing, get to know the locals and then perhaps even next summer come camping with us all - there's quite a large group of hardened campers, and you could probably geo camp every weekend of the summer and still not run out of events! You never know where you might meet the girl of your dreams. Edited December 2, 2008 by HazelS Quote Link to comment

+Munkeh Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 (edited) mmm got my pokey stick out to find the cache once found the lid on the container was a bit slack and the outside was a bit scuffed and battered DNF (thats not find) Edited December 2, 2008 by Munkeh Quote Link to comment

+vw_k Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 There's an outdoors dating website somewhere, They were advertising at the outdoors show a couple of seasons ago. I think it might be called something like "The Date Outdoors" Quote Link to comment

+kewfriend Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I certainly think installing yourself as a Travel Bug has potential: one up from a geo-dog perhaps. You could insist that to be logged you have to be in the hands of some other geocacher for a required period of time. However in the spirit of geocaching travel bus, I'm not sure you could decline to be grabbed. Of course there are some who might wish to upload photos of the travel bug, so you'd need to consider how to manage that. It is of course a trifle unfair if a TB never is actually resident in a cache so you might wish to declare your domicile as a giant cache and finding the TB in the cache would then become a slightly more extensive version of rootling through all the McToys. Access to the cache doesnt have to be all 24 hours and you could of course be a member only cache, but whether that is a successful filter remains debatable. You could declare your personage itself to be the logbook and get yourself signed but I suggest that you'd need to have those signatures tatooed otherwise they might fade too quickly and too many would falsely claim a first to find. If you yourself were the logbook, you could might wish to consider how you would manage logbook replacement. I know of many single male and female cachers so the next issue to be discussed would what would happen if any pairing became hitched. Could you log two TBs or caches for the price of one. If you were a conjoined cache and one half was archived what would happen to the other half. I'm sure GSP has a set of procedures for that one. On further consideration this is truly a geo-minefield and I suggest emailing MTN and MissJenn for formal guidance on how to proceed, perhaps avoiding Keystone who tends to have a very formalistic outlook Quote Link to comment

+Moote Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 .....I can think of 3 without even thinking....... There is a flip side.... I can think of more than a couple of relationships that have broken up as a fairly direct result of geocaching and geocaching events Know what you mean here Jon, my thought on this, is don't let others interfere, just keep your relationship personal to yourself, and DON'T let caching get in the way.

The difference between ANY relationship and geocaching is that when you have a puzzle cache, ALL of the puzzles can eventually be solved. Quote Link to comment
