Thought ya'll might like this...
He's not perfect. You aren't either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn't going to quote poetry, he's not thinking about you every moment,…

What's your dating market value?
Someone decided to devise a test to see how desirable a person is. Here is the test for women: http://heartiste.wordpress.com/dating-market-value-test-for-women/ and men: http://heartiste.wordpress.com/dating-market-value-test-for-men/ Please note that I don't actually believe in this crap but I thought it would be fun to…

Best Compliment EVER!!!
So me and a girlfriend of mine went out to lunch today.... We sat down and I noticed a guy sitting alone in a booth across the room. Very good looking. And I alerted my friend that I ought to get his attention, it doesn't hurt to try. So on the back of my business card (that doesn't give too much away) I wrote the…

What "type" do you attract?
Not essentially the type you are attracted to, but what types of women/men always seem to like you. For me i attract alot of older women(35+), otherwise shy women (guess i dont make many nervous) and alot of really skinny women (even though i prefer my women thick) how about you

The Case For Settling
This article from The Atlantic (http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2008/03/marry-him/306651/) makes the case why settling is a better option that remaining single for women. The article is a bit long, but well worth the read as is most content from The Atlantic. There is a degree of truth in this article for men,…

Age Difference
I'd like to gather some opinions on age difference in relationships. Do May-December relationships work? How many years of difference should there be maximum, or should there be no limit? Should the concern of how life will be in the "golden" years be legitimate enough to say 'no' to any relationship/marriage? Let's say a…

When You're Joking, but They Think It's Serious
A friend joked around with me the other day about how if we’re both still single in 5 years we oughta get married. I didn’t think much about it since the girl he really likes (a mutual friend he's asked me for advice about) was sitting right there. So when I was relaying this convo to a male friend, I was surprised when he…

Secret Relationships
Have you, or anyone you’ve known, kept a budding relationship secret until it became really solid? My initial instinct in such situations is that there’s an affair or some other negative reason behind wanting to keep things secret. BUT when I became single a couple years ago, some of my single friends recommended I keep…

What's YOUR number?
Yes, I watched the cheesy movie with Anna Faris this weekend! It kinda shocked me that they said that the average woman has been with 10.5 men in her life before settling down. Seemed kinda high to me, but I've led a VERY sheltered life! So I'm wondering... Do you think 10.5 is high or not as an average for a woman? What…

Sex with Only Person.
I caught this discussion in the general chit-chat section and was completely taken back. The post was centered around the following "would you be happy if you only had one sex partner your entire life". Pretty much a girl met her boyfriend at a young age, got engaged, and is now planning on marrying him.. She's a bit…

Well that was short.
I broke up with Hulk. :ohwell: Short and sweet. We wanted different things long term (he planned to start working away for longer periods of time in several months and he most likely didn't ever want children.. he brought this up several times AFTER becoming exclusive). Yes he was fun and we had a blast but I didn't want…

Opening new doors
Well, here it goes. I am opening new doors, and moving forward. I have gone on a couple of dating sites, and have met some very interesting and some not so interesting men. 1. There is the widowed dad, nice guy, but has already stated he gets jealous (that will absolutely not work with me), so red flag #1. I flat out told…

Would it bother you if s/he didn't know why they fell apart?
Have been getting to know someone over the last couple months…I’m concerned because he said he really had no idea why his 2 marriages fell apart. This bothers me because there’s always at least one significant reason for a relationship to fail. I’m hoping this is just because he’s not willing to talk about this with a…

Friday, Friday, Friday
So it is finally Friday. What is everyone's plans for this weekend? Labor day weekend for Americans. I actually have a very low key go with the flow weekend planed for once. It is going to feel so good not to have something planned every minute of the day. Saturday I am taking my friend out for dinner and a movie for her…

Jenna Marbles is spot on.. again.
I came across this on Facebook this morning. Jenna Marbles is damn funny and spot on with this video titled "Nice Guys Do Not Finish Last". What's your thought on this? I've seen so many guys make the mistake of being the quintessential 'Nice Guy'. I see it with my friends over and over again and I just want to smack them…

Internet dating is killing my self esteem
I am not amazingly beautifull. Men that do not have kids are not interested in me since I DO have kids (how dare I had a life before !!!) Men that DO have kids would rather have a women that do not have kids (double standard.....absolutly) I have not travelled the world since my kids needs come way before my wants I am…

Birthday
Sorry in advance for a pity party post. Friday is my 32nd birthday. I was really hopeful that I would at least be dating someone when it came around. But no, seems that Mike has poofed. That is okay because I wasn't having terribly strong feelings for him anyway. I liked him and enjoyed his company but that was it. I am…

A question
After reading through Janies thread where ladies have indicated they have to or feel they have to diminish their accomplishments or even "dumb down" to be appealing to guys it occurs to me that the opposite perception is also the case...that a guy who is not degreed or in a perceived succesful/powerful place in the world…

Last night I was to meet a guy I have been emailing/texting for awhile. We had decided to meet at 6. And he said he would come my way...he wanted a quiet place so we could talk. At 4 I texted him to confirm plans .....at 5 he responded yup...leaving now....never showed up!! I texted once to ask what he drove and no…

Change of Command
Single Peeps, I was single when I started this group, and thought it would be a good place for myself and others to discuss all of the stuff single people encounter. The group has grown SO much and I know a lot of you have become good friends over the months. I'm sort of proud of my little family here...*sniff*. However,…

I stepped out of my comfort zone
OMG I am in awe - I did something I normally do not do. Last night traffic was horrible so I decided to stop and get my hair trimmed up. There was an absolute cutie waiting to get his hair cut as well. All I can say is this man that the MOST amazing voice. It was enough to dang near make my panties drop. In the time we…

Hot for Neighbor.
OK, so the house next door, which was vacant for months, has finally been rented out and I have a new neighbor. I noticed the moving trucks two weeks ago and a few days later, I saw a pretty gal outside the house. Naturally, I spot her and walk over to introduce myself. Long story short, she just moved to south Florida…

Speed Dating?
Does anyone have any experience with it? I signed up for an event this Friday. Have no idea how to make a great 5 minute impression, or what questions to ask during the 5 minutes.
