Have I lost my mind!!
Ok, so here's the deal. I did the POF thing for a while, and got completely fed up with the nonsense. So, I deleted my account a couple of months ago. I decided on Sunday that I wanted to give it one more shot. My thinking was, I know that I am a good woman, so there has got to be at least a couple of good men on there. I…

"Serial dater"
"Serial dater" What does that phrase mean to you?
-
Um.... what to say?
I just got off the phone with someone from POF and we had a wonderful 2 hour conversation that actually killed his phone battery along the way, so he had to sit on the floor plugged into the wall for the last half hour. :bigsmile: He asked if I wanted meet (or just talk again or exchange emails because he never knows with…

Back to the stupid drawing board...
After having met no prospects in real life (not for a lack of trying, so save your breath, DM), I've rejoined the online dating world of match.com. I hated to do it, but as much as I've been out and about and active lately, it's just not happening. So I sucked it up and rejoined. I tried the free sites like OKCupid, and…

First meet dilemma
I just got off the phone with a match from OKC who asked me out for a drink on Saturday - maybe late afternoon. He's going to see what events are going on in his beach town. I was kind of a little put off that he didn't offer to meet me half way, but I went along with it for now (he's supposed to get back to me for us to…

Why does this bother me more than if he said he had a
Someone I haven't met in person (and won't... let's face it, I'm moving in 6 weeks) wrote this (unsolicited) about his son, who he has 50% of the time: "His mother and I are still really good friends and respect each other highly. Our relationship just didn't work out and it is what it is." For some reason, this makes me…

Weekeeeend
How was everyone's weekend? I'm catching up on all the Single Peeps thread topics while I wait for directions for sheltering. Saturday I drove to New Orleans with some girlfriends for lunch, shopping, and booze. I got a couple pairs of Aviators, a new sexy dress, and a new "daily" necklace. Got back around 7pm and had…

Online Dating - Who makes the first move?
So I've started the whole online dating thing...oy vay! I'm wondering though, are men expecting women to make the first move? I don't mind putting myself out there but it would be nice to be the one being chased. Am I expecting too much wanting a man to contact me first? I've gotten several profile views, but no one makes…

What is the point exactly?
First of all, I will announce I'm pms'y so I'm an emotional roller coaster today. I've been thinking... The whole exclusive vs serious relationship talk in another thread provoked the question.. "what exactly is the point?" I guess I'm feeling a bit high due to my Midol kicking in and I'm doing some deep thinking. As you…

The MOVIE kind of "love"
A friend of mine married a man she dated for several years. She's always been very happy with him. I asked her how she knew he was the one... she said she didn't. She NEVER had those butterflies or excited feelings about him. Her mother told her that was OK because that type of response is really just "movie" love and not…

Does needing space always mean s/he's not the one?
48 hours of travel gave me lots of time to think up questions for y'all... lol... When I hear girlfriends say their bf "needs space," I think back to the (admittedly, very few) times I ever felt that way; where I felt like the guy I was seeing was too into me. I didn't want to cut him off completely (he was hot, fun,…

Oh yeah, I knew it. LA sucks to date
I've always thought that too many choices means nobody wants to choose or they all want the top 2%. There is just too much to do here to think about settling down. Busy, busy. http://blogs.laweekly.com/afterdark/2012/08/why_la_is_a_terrible_place_to_be_single.php

I screwed up again... loneliness ruled my heart
Hey guys - I could use some cheering up, but I'm not sure I deserve it. Met a cute a boy a week ago - I made the first move, we talked for hours, I kissed him that same night... a bunch. We texted over the past week... flirty, sexy, but nothing overt. I met him for a beer last night and he confesses that he isn't divorced…

Poll: Bacon or Ice Cream?
Saw this posted on someone else's wall: If I could have calorie-free bacon that doesn't cause me to swell up for the rest of my life I'd GLADLY give up ice cream!!

How do you judge fitness/activity level?
I've read many posts here where people say they (like me) want a future partner who is fit and active. That makes sense, since we're all on MFP to improve our health and fitness. Other than looks, how can you decide (in the first couple minutes you meet someone and decide whether or not you want their number) that they…

I hate Facebook
Sometimes I wonder why it takes soo little to knock me off my "happy" pedestal. Of all people I shouldn't be whining because I've done so well lately. So there's a guy that I've been keeping my eye on and today I check facebook and it says he's now in a relationship. :grumble: Lord I hate Facebook So I waited too long I…

Let's talk about kissing!
As someone who has never been kissed, I find kissing mysterious and fascinating. I would like to know what you consider a good kiss and also how you should "jump into" a kiss. Especially from the guys, but I would like to hear the ladies' responses as well... I would also like to hear your kissing stories! It could be the…

Online Dating TAKE 2
I just had to share since so many on here have given lots of advice, that even though I stepped away from online dating 2 weeks ago, I used that time to really step back and learn from it. I needed to figure out what to do differently. Obviously, I can't control people responding or not, and I definitely can't do anything…

How my second date went...
So I went on my 2nd date tonight. It was fun, but awkward. I picked him up and we walked around the historic part of town and looked in the really cool boutiques and shops. In one of the shops, they have a "naughty section" and I smiled and said, "Have you ever been in there?" He said no and I said I had and went inside,…
