It's not used very much. Unfortunately, the single female letterboxers greatly outnumber the single male letterboxers. Plus everyone is spread all over the country.

I could ditto your post, except I am 51. When I first saw this board, I was hopeful, but it is mostly used for single women talking about being single, unfortunately. I guess we need to find someone first THEN lure him into letterboxing once he's trapped. he he

That's what I did :) you never know. Ya know? I'm bidding you blessings on this one. Companionship with someone who is as much a best friend as a partner is a blessing indeed!

Heh... I'm dating a noxer. I've gotten him to go hiking with me and he helped me plant one but he swears he's not going to become a letterboxer. Time will tell...

I've tried that!! He's a geocacher (shhh, I know...I know) and he's gone boxing with me a few times but I just can't get him to realize boxing is better. Although he will admit he likes the artistic nature of the stamps being handcarved and that the clues aren't just a set of coordinates but actual clues (even if they are in riddles or puzzles).

Seems he's more focused on the quantity and not the quality so I guess it's better he's still 'on the dark side' lol

hoping this new relationship lasts a while :)

Hey! I resemble that remark. ;-)

I came to letterboxing because of letterbox hybrids on geocaching.com. I wanted to know what a non-hybrid letterbox was. In 2003 I found letterboxing.org, but there weren't many letterboxes around here, but I found one and drew a picture in the logbook. I checked again in late 2009 and found AQ. When I carved my own personal stamp in April 2010 I made sure that that first letterbox was the first one that I officially found, but that wasn't until October 2010.

I do both, but the desire to box waxes and wains, seldom in sync. If he wants to go hiking with you, take that. Just find someone that has the same goals for life (and afterwards) as you, and enjoy the trip.

That's the plan :) Since we both enjoy the hiking aspect of our respective hobbies we do that together and add a little caching or boxing along the way.

I also realize that we're not going to do/like everything the other does and that is quite alright and really good for us in my eyes.

It's a tough job to be sure, but I think you'll find plenty of male letterboxers who are willing to date two or three of you women on an as needed basis. ;o)

Except me, of course... Hmmmm.... maybe I'll meet a nice letterboxer that lives in my area when I move... :)

Single White Letterboxing Female, age 22, looking for local nice LDS Letterboxing Guy... I'll probably get teased for this later, but just wanted to say I put this out there at least once in my lifetime. Geeky gamer, cooks, cleans, and snuggles :)

Doctor :P

More like a move to be closer to family.

That's happy! From a purely selfish perspective, does that mean more chicken stories and pictures?

Good for you. Just reading your blogs about mushrooming I thought your family was in MO. Not that any of that is my business or anything. :)

Probably so! I have some that I need to upload now, but I'm not sure it's going to happen before the big move. The van pulls up on the 21st of July! There's so much to do between now and then - and Baloo isn't much help! He's so nervous that he finds dark places to hide and sleep in these days! Poor puppy.....

No, my family (what little there is of it) is in Michigan. There aren't very many of us - even if you count dogs and chickens! :)

Still single white female letterboxer here 3 years later, about to turn 55 in January. You may have seen my event celebrating that fact. My birthday, not my marital status.
