The mythical "ideal partner" (?)
We often hear people talk about "the ideal partner" here or in other places... Ideal: "Conforming to an ultimate standard of perfection or excellence; embodying an ideal" "The idea of something that is perfect; something that one hopes to attain" I personally define "ideal partner" as: "the partner that is perfect for me"…

Professions to stay away from or vice versa
First off, this is meant as fun. I met a cop last Friday during the rally while out with gf's. I honestly didn't think I'd hear from him since our encounter was short and sweet but he's been calling and texting since yesterday. I have heard to not date cops. I've heard they're cheaters and use their authority to their…

Online dating 'body type'
Ok I will make this short and sweet. If someone says their ideal body type is 'athletic and muscular'. And I am only 'average'. Do I bother to answer? A little backgound - I sent someone from eHarmony my '5 questions' and one of them was 'what body type do you prefer in a partner'. Thoughts?

Women.
So .. I go to the hockey game this weekend. Thinking I am prepared for the vultures. I snuck in and out all last year because I wasn't ready to deal with the "hockey moms" after my divorce. My ex is the hockey coach. This year .. I thought, I will just go in and sit in the bleachers like a good mom .. after all it has been…

Quick Poll
Would you date someone if your job was potentially at risk? Have you ever dated someone "forbidden"?

Soooooooo
I have been pretty quiet on here because work has been really busy and my personal life has actually been busy. lol I have been dating this guy for over a month now and while that doesn't seem like very long, we are exclusive. Neither of us wants to date anyone else and we really enjoy each other. We talk for at least a…

I don't listen well .....
Weren't linemen one of the occupations to avoid? I hung out with my "friend" last night again. I got asked to stay in town in order to work today instead of driving home. We were going to meet for dinner but then with my schedule changing he stayed in town as well. Anyway, we had a great evening overall and then about a…

Did something new, now need advice
Well, I finally got the courage up to say something to the hot swim instructor. It didn’t quite go as I’d hoped…here’s what happened. Last Saturday, I left a note for him telling him that I was interested in getting to know him better and to call me so we could have coffee or a drink sometime. I had a workshop this past…

Think I'm a hypocrite....
Ok...here goes. Long story made..long. Sorry about that, just how I roll. So..Halloween work function..to be honest was a hot mess. Crap costume, rain soaked hair, squirrely amounts of sugar-crazed energy and probably smears of chocolate 'round my mouth as further proof of my "fun-sized" gluttony. I ended up getting caught…

The link is here: http://www.politicalcompass.org/ When you click it, there will be a link that says "Take the Test", it will ask you 6…

It begins
The polls in some east coast states just closed. A friend posted this on Facebook earlier today. I think it is rather eloquent so I thought I'd share it, even if it has nothing to do with being single. When the votes have been tallied, I don't want to hear people talking about moving to Canada, rooting for the country to…

Very Very Random
We are all wild and crazy single peeps here. :drinker: lol. A breakroom conversation popped up. (Yes call us insane, I can't recall how it started) Swallowing goldfish....anyone done it, know someone who did it? Share your experience, or their experience. I myself would not could not bring myself to do it. That was my 2…

weight, image, possibly humiliation
I was walking at lunch and a news crew was filming and asking for permission to film people walking around the area. It reminded me of something that happened to a gal I worked with a long time ago. She was walking around in a similar environment and a camera man asked for permission to film her. He said they would air the…

"Breaking Amish" Fans?
I have been watching this show, but I just don't really get it? I get that 5 people that were Amishor Mennonite went to NYC to "see the world, but if they leave they get shunned? But, after you are shunned you can get "back in"? One of the guys was married before and was shunned, but then was Amish again, but the girl…

For the men...
Men of Single Peeps! I would like to know why you believe you are single. We have lots and lots of threads about how us women aren't either playing up our physical attractiveness, or are not acting in particular ways so as to be enticing to men...and of course there are our individual reasons as well.

Well about four months later Scott and I ran into Spencer at a bar…

The question of validation.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-20219349 - This is worth a read, I think. More philosophical than the title suggests. " I don't believe the single person has a sceptical or reductive notion of love but suspect, rather, that they might be compelled by an even higher, almost unrealisable, conception of it." An interesting…

Would it be wrong to....
..... marry a Sweet Potato? It has all the qualities I am looking for in a partner.... - exposure to excessive heat and light doesn't burn a sweet potato like it does me.... - it's soft in the middle... meaning, soft "hearted"..... - tastes delicious! (hasn't been fed asparagus... ar ar ar) - keeps staring at me in awe…

What would you do in this type of situation? I have a close girlfriend that was asked out by a guy I am also friends with on Sunday when we were all out watching football. The guy is somewhere between a friend and an acquaintance. Well this morning I am browsing through facebook and find out he was until recently (within…

Do you believe?
....that "everything happens for a reason"? The reason I ask is this.....I had met a guy on a dating site....great guy, but in a conversation, it came out that he "probably would never marry again, and would really have to be convinced to even live with someone again." So my feeling was what was the point in dating…
