How DOES normal dating work these days

people meet at a certain location. then they tweet each other instead of talking.

Your friend sounds a little bat *kitten* crazy from this little information we have. And I would know, cause I'm full out bat *kitten* crazy. It's unfortunate, really.

I was thinking more like desperate, which is a turn off...

I've never "dated" traditionally. I hang out with my friends and do whatever I feel like doing. Then I end up falling for a friend, usually. I think "normal" dating is really %^&$#ing weird, personally. Trying to establish a "romantic" connection with a stranger? Weird weird weird.

And as for your friend: b*tches be crazy, yo.
(myself included).

^ Agree

Well, in my book if a guy say "we'll see", it mean don't think about it. Guy that want to be with you will make the time and will schedule the next date.

Next

^ This. The guy probably saw the hickey and doesn't want to date someone who is playing the field. Unless of course he's a player too.

***disclaimer, I have no interest in dating anybody lol****


I've got this friend, and she's a little nuts. She went on this date, had a great first date.
Now she's trying to set up a second date(not even a week later) dude is like "we'll see" which personally seems pretty normal from what I can remember back when dinosaurs roamed.


And she is flipping out "oh well, onto the next guy..I'm not playing these games"

I don't think this dude is playing games, she probably smothered the poor guy.

Plus she showed up at the first date trying to hide a hickey. lol

She gave him the hickey and wants to give him another but, he won't let her so now she's mad.:brokenheart:

honestly what 33 year old gets or gives hickeys anymore? Skeevy!

I'm 41, and my (drunk at the time) husband gave me one a few weeks ago (he was goofing around being an idiot)...I was SO pissed about it. I made him give me money to go out and buy some turtleneck sweaters for work. That's seriously wrong!!

Re: the original post...dude is "just not that into" your friend at all! I have a single friend like this as well, (who comes on way too strong, then wonders why they run away) and I want to slap her upside the head half the time for her cluelessness!

In the past if the first date went well it usually ends with the guy saying something like "We really should do something like this again....How does next Friday work for you?" If that doesn't happen he isn't going to go home and text you to ask you out a week later. And it just looks sad when the girl does the chasing, the only guy that's going to go for that is one that's looking for a booty call.

Well as a guy I can tell you if I went on a date with a woman and she showed up sporting a hickey I would not be very interested in a second date. First I am going to think that either she has another guy she is seeing or that she is just way too easy. Men want a little mystery in the women they are dating... and as much as men want to get into a womans pants even on the first date... they will respect her a lot more if they do not acheive this goal. Also men do not like to be smothered... it may not be nice but if he doesn't call then chances are he is not really interested and you need to evaluate what happened on the date to make sure you maintained the mystery and a bit of the good girl image.

Ok this is my two cents...

dating f*ing sucks!

She needs to move on, as everyone else says. I just wanted to say it sucks.

Tell her to buy the book "The Rules" - she should be able to discern whether or not she wants to bother after reading it.

He might be interested, but if he's giving the "we'll see" he's not interested ENOUGH.

No one should ever have to convince someone to date them. Either the chemistry and attraction is there, or it's not. And it doesn't necessarily mean she did anything "wrong" on the date (although sporting a hickey is a red flag), but they're not "right" for each other.

I've come to realize that dating is like shoe shopping. You might see a pair that you really like, but if the fit isn't perfect, you're not going to want to wear them. No one should ever cram their toes into a pair that's too small, or have their feet flop around and get blisters in a pair that's too big. That's the real meaning behind Cinderella and the glass slipper. It wasn't that the prince saved the damsel in distress, it's that the shoe fit! :laugh:

And again... some people should really get their gait analyzed and be properly fitted by a professional. They can't be trusted to make decisions on their own.

Dont chase them...replace them...

men can sense crazy...maybe he could smell her a mile away and didn't think she was 'fixable'

Did they go to Applebees?

Did they go to Applebees?

Thanks for the laugh!!!!!!!
