Young Ladies Listen Up

Please let this DOG be a warning to all you young ladies out there.....

DO NOT STAY WITH A GUY IF HE TELLS YOU HE DOES NOT SEE/MIGHT NOT SEE A FUTURE WITH YOU!

Let me reiterate: DO NOT STAY! He won't change his mind.....He won't marry you and/or see a future with you "eventually". He is just not that into you. Don't waste years of your lives on guys like this like I did. I'm 41 and SINGLE.

I have been running into a lot of dames (like myself) lately that are "women of a certain age" and either divorced or never married. Why? Because they chose the wrong guy. My life has been a huge learning experience. I'm finally realizing that I deserve more (as do all of you....all of you 2-3 readers out there). When I fall in love I fall hard....but my mistake has been blindness...and deafness. I see/saw the warning signs. I heard the declarations of "yeah....you're nice" when I proclaimed love. The avoidance when trying to discuss the future. The self proclaimed "I like being alone and will probably be a nomad for the rest of my life." And you know what happens to these guys? As soon as they break up with you they find someone else and form a lasting bond with them leaving you to feel sorry for yourself. Well....I claim ENOUGH! I'm here to teach the next generation of women that you deserve more! Stop only looking for a guy who's easy on the eyes and an unemotional imbecile and start looking for depth.....honesty, kindness.....someone that ADORES you and will always put you first. Heed my warning as I can't reiterate this enough.

OK....just had to get this off my chest.

Now....back to your regularly scheduled program.

Date Me!

It's Not The Size Of The Boat It's The Motion Of The Ocean

Sometimes I take a quick moment to check my online dating sites while working if I see I received a message(s). I usually only stay on for a minute (at most) and then log right off. During this time I more than likely get an instant message from some whack job saying "hi" to me.

Today's doozy went something like this.

Idiot: Hi. Did you get my message?
Me: Um no. I'm only checking in for a minute as I'm at work and can't IM.
Idiot: Oh, because I wanted to know if you'd consider a friend with benefits situation. (Oh, we got a situation alright)
Me: Uh no. But thanks for asking.
Idiot: Really? Not even an attractive 26 year old hung guy like myself
Me: Ha! No thank you but all the best to you. (I'm sure he thought the "hung" tidbit would really perk my interest and I'm not gonna lie....for a second it did)

Anyway.....still seeing one fella that is of quite a bit of interest to me so as of this writing I'm happy. Tomorrow? Could be a whole other story.

Date Me!

A New Year Of Contradictions

So it's 2011. I have a good feeling about this year. (I actually don't but I thought I'd try and fake positivity)

I'm cleaning house and also trying to build on potential possibilities.

Irons are in the fire and I hope to have some updates soon.

New decade = new attitude (Actually it's the same piss poor attitude but again....I'm a faker)

DATE ME!

LOL

I thought this was funny so wanted to share - please keep in mind there was a picture of 2 wine glasses attached to the message:

Hello there,
How are you 2nite? Are you ready 4 Xmas? lol..

Oh yes sirree.....I'm ready for Christmas - LOL LOL LOL

I'm glad the question of my readiness for the holiday made him "laugh out loud" and I hope it does you as well.

From my DOG to your DOG (anyone else who reads this write a dating blog???) HAPPY HOLIDAYS!! LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL!!!!

Date Me! (I heard from the fella the other night and we're going out again...yay!)

Patience Is An M-F'in Virtue

You go out with someone and have a good time. You say goodbye and then.....you wait. You wait to see if that person will contact you again. You run every detail of the date over and over in your mind. You start second....third guessing yourself. Should I have said that?.....Not said that?.....Said more? You wait How long do you wait? How long do you wait before you move on? Should you call?....email?....text?.....or just wait?......

Dating is fun! Oy!

DATE ME!

William6969

William6969....what is your deal? You contact me on 2 different dating sites but don't remember us emailing? You use words like "Kisses" and "thinking of you............wish you were here next to me."......"counting the minutes to see you............ I will be your man."....You title your email "Us". But you don't remember emailing me?! Do you remember me telling you that I don't feel comfortable hearing those things HAVING NEVER MET YOU?! Do you remember me emailing that I'm not interested continuing to email? Maybe the next site you contact me on you'll remember. Or maybe not and I'll get another stunner of correspondence from you. Fingers crossed.

Have a nice holiday, William6969.

You Gotta Be Fast To Date

Ah speed dating.....it's been awhile. And now I know why. It's painful!

Went last night with my friend. Thought it was good that we didn't sit right next to each other otherwise I think we would have been cracking jokes and rolling our eyes at each other all night. At least this way the fellas had a fighting chance....well, sort of.

Let's just put it this way: When one of the most unattractive guys in the room claims that the girls are way better than the men, you know you have a problem.

HIGHLIGHTS:
Ruben: Oh Ruben......nice, short (about 5'4"), talkative.....sold Sony tv's to corporations (had my mother been the one speed dating I think we would have found our match!)....and just an awkward guy. Nice enough though....

Drunk Guy: (Don't remember his name but I think he was wearing a rug) 'nuff said

Chris: Was wearing a one piece outdoor jumpsuit like he just came in from working streets and sanitation. The guy was all jokes. Said he worked for the Gambino family.....you know....the syndicate.....(Ugh, yeah....I know)....Ah, I'm just kidding (Yep...really funny). Said he travels....well, I want to go to Miami....then the Caribbean....So, you've never traveled?....No, but in a few months. Said he lives in Chicago....Oh, where in Chicago?.....Well, I'm moving to Chicago.....in a few months. Said he likes dogs....Do you own a dog.....No, but I will in a few months....a doberman. Huh. A lot is going to happen to Chris...IN A FEW MONTHS.

Observation: I sat on my hands almost the whole night. Not sure why I did this but it felt comfortable. Then I put on gloves. One part of me did it because my hands were cold. Another because I was afraid of getting germs from the dudes.

Overall I got 2 matches and these honestly were stretch matches (meaning I stretched it to find a couple guys I would want to see again). My friend also got 2 matches and lo and behold we both chose the same guy. We'll see how it all plays out but at this writing I'm not worried.

I will not be speed dating again....at least not this year (only 3 more weeks left in 2010?...well, you know......)

DATE ME!
