It takes time Heave.... and lots of practice.... maybe raise your standards a little? Sounds like you aren't have the best luck out there.... How are you meeting them??

Raise my standards...LOL...I have been told that mine are way to high.

I meet them in various ways. One of them I knew (big mistake and long story but she was #1 on the list), one was a blind date, and a few were from match.com.

Well if you were 10 years older and a little closer ;P

Hey Heave, how do you feel about big butts? Have you read my account of my date last night? It is an experience and adventure to date, that is about all I can say. At least I stay somewhat entertained by how some people really are. Never ending learning experience!

Be patient; just enjoy the time you have with the one's you've liked.

I always hear that you will find a special someone when you least expect it.

Ok My dating experience..
1. married doctor

2. Octopus.. I lasted 20 minutes and needed 8 hands to fight him off.

dates 3, 4 , 5 Nice man,, Fell in love the first date but did not tell me until the 3rd date, I thought we were friends only.. I did not have those type feelings for him.. but really liked him as a friend..We still talk..

6 and 7 nice man,, packed a picnic for the beach and it was a lot of fun. No spark for either of us, but we are going to be friends.

8.. pushed me to make love and tried to bite me.. I won't say where. I told him I would need to see his shot record if I allowed that. LMAO.

Needless to say, I spent time talking to all of them , one of them for 7 weeks but people are often not what they portray themselves to be on line.. I am who I am.. always.. But with all of that , I have made two nice friends, and am still talking to several more. I am not going to go back to my bat cave for several years so I am staying where I am.. Kimmee

I had a semi date last week...enough said.

Well I have made only 1 very tenative attempt to get back out there...blind date, friend of my brothers...nice guy, a widower with a very adorable 5 year old little girl..third date in, he takes me home and lays this on me "look you are a wonderful woman, i know if i tried i could fall in love and besides my daughter needs a mom and your young enough"

What?

All of the sudden it wasn't a date...it was a job interview (lol)

Better luck and dates to us all!!

I am sorry that I am dying over that one Nicksmom.. Hysterical,.. thank god I don't get that as I am too old for that stuff, but I sincerely sympathize with you.. Nice to know that you made the cut. but no thanks.. LOL. Kimmee

Here's mine:

1 date with poetry love letter author...very nice-not much physical attraction

2 dates with nice guy from match.com / turned out to be a stalker who basically professed his love for me having known him for two weeks.........SCARY

1 date with cute doctor who sent me flowers today/ a second date will follow tomorrow night

1 lunch date with very homosexual man trying to prove his manhood

AND- waiting on most anticipated date that will not happen until December 26 (that's another story :) )

So- all in all.......not too bad.

Why does it seem like the guys who don't give a crap do so much better than guys like me who are nice, honest, caring guys? It is like the asshole gets the prize and the good guy gets left in the dust as aways.

Here's mine:
1 date went to get bite to eat, went to movies, done forplay in movies. Next day got pics of her boobs and camel toe. Than that was it.

Talk to girls fist, email, phone, etc, get to know them before dating...otherwise, you see what you get... Good luck!

Here's mine:

So don't feel so bad ok!
