    I'm going running today at the lake.. I don't go to the gym on Wednesdays but thinking I might stop in and do abs today since I didn't have time yesterday. :devil: No idea if he goes in on Wednesdays though.

    Every other weekend? I thought it would be more like every weekend.

    Still, even if it every other weekend, that is 4 days a month. The average month has 30 days. That's 13% of your potential time alone out the window. What if you don't like kids? Kids are also generally resentful of someone new in a parent's life. And that doesn't change even if you are dating someone with kids over 18.

    I would agree with the general point though that it is easier for a woman with no kids to date a man with kids than a guy with no kids to date a woman with kids. Guys with no kids usually don't appreciate the lack of availability. There are already enough organic scheduling barriers.

    This, I must say, is freaking hysterical .. men have such different minds then women. Never in my life would I figure out the percentage of time a child takes away from alone time. That is cute. lol.

    I am DYING to know how this turns out! lmao! His *kitten* better be single. lol

    I find DM1983Z's posts amongst the funniest on the forum for being the exact opposite of the way I think (I mean this in a nice way, I quite like it :smile: ). Glad it's not just me :laugh:

    Lorro & HelovesMe87 are making me :blushing:

    I like your posts too. Your thoughts and the way you express yourself sometimes reminds me of my friend lover, which is why I just listen to him and go to daydreaming land. :love:

    Plus I told you, I have forever memorized your line about how relationships should just flow. haha

    This is sweet. La_Amazona also making me :blushing:

    I've given up approaching men (temporarily) because I've been told by a handful of guys they'd date me but I'm "too tall"

    REALLY?

    yup I'm 6 foot even! i love being tall but the average man in south tx is probably 5'9" so i'm too intimidating for them! not to mention the girls are 5'6" so I stick out like a sore thumb

    Cool, thanks. I missed that. She's is taller than I am. I am 5'10". At 5'10", I am taller than most women, but there are cases where I am not like this one. Most women want a taller man. I wouldn't think it would be difficult for her to find a guy 6'1"-6'3", but I'd be glad to hear more about her experiences.

    How open are you to shorter men? If you let the men know this, I think some will be turned on by the idea of a taller woman.

    I've been asked out before by women, and I liked it.

    I'm definitely open to dating men shorter than me. Most of the guys I approach are actually shorter than me. I think with most men it's an inferiority complex; they like to be the taller one but I know that's not always the issue!

    .. I'm going to go see Bone Thugs N Harmony next week"
    He'll say "Oh REALLY?"
    Then somehow I gotta turn it into whether he's single or not..

    Yup. Not that I've thought about it or anything!
    Ha! I suspected you would have at least two scenarios scripted. Love the mental leap from rap to marriage :happy: . You could tell him you'd have asked him to join you if he was single and see what he says ...

    I can totally relate to this. I'm 5'9 ish.. I stick out like a sore thumb ESPECIALLY when I'm hanging out with my hispanic girlfriends. They're all 5'5 and under! This past weekend, we went out for my BFF's b-day in Houston and I rocked 5 inch heels. I was a REAL amazon lady but I looked hot, damnit. I danced with several guys and they didn't seem to mind my height but they were shorter than me. One time I was standing on the table thing dancing :blushing: and this guy asks me to dance by putting his hand out in front of me.. he was cute so I grabbed his hand and came on down. He came to my neck!!! :ohwell: Oh well... still danced with him.

    We need taller men here in South Texas. I was just telling my friend the other day how small guys seem here in Austin.

    Girl, come to Corpus! Most of my height is in my legs, so when a guy asks me to dance & I stand up, you should see the look on their face!:laugh: I was in the Dallas area this past weekend & was surrounded by tall people (men AND women!), I felt at home :smile:

    I must say I like tall women. Around my height is best (I'm 5'11 so a bit more or a bit less). There aren't that many though, but oooh yeah baby, that's good when I find one!

    I have a friend that is 5'9 about 6' with heels on and she just goes up to guys shorter then her and says I like them short it's closer to my boobs.
    Try that next time.

    disclaimer (this friend has also gone up to guy's grabbed their junk and said "you will do")

    :noway:

    If only I could be that brave.

    I'm social.. but I'm shy. I can't even introduce myself to the freaking gym guy. How bad is it that I had to have a beer BEFORE the gym? That's just nasty! Sweating beer out. Blah.

    On Saturday night, my bff was trying to get me to bring a guy home with me. I had a room to myself, I'm from out of town, it would have been "perfect". I found a guy who was hot hot hot and we were flirty. But... BUT.... BUTTTTT.... I couldn't. I didn't know what to say, how to act. Eh well.
    So instead I climbed into my huge nice beautiful hotel bed all myself and played on my laptop. :laugh: :ohwell:

    DUN DUN DUN...

    He'll say... actually my partner and I adopted them as siblings. We think it's important to keep family together.

    I could never do it either. This last weekend though I was pretty much babysitting my friends so they didn't end up in a gutter that I couldn't find anyone that "I" found cute. My friends and I have such different tastes in guys so we kept hanging out with guys I had no interest in.

    She told me to do the following:

    Go to him, look him in the eye and say, "Look, let's cut through the bullsh*t. I'm not from here but I want to have some fun tonight. No strings, just fun. I am staying at a hotel and you're more than welcome to come back to my room with me if you'd like as long as you make it worth my night."

    WTH?!?!

    She's married, her husband was right there too.. would probably NEVER do this either but she is living vicariously through me now that I'm single.
    How would I say that without giggling or passing out?
    Yeah... no.
