i enjoy dating but would not call it "fun" cause it can be a lot of work if you want it to be a "success". its definitely not meant for everyone, especially those who dont "wanna get hurt". to me, dating takes a certain level of maturity (not saying those who dislike dating are immauture) because you cant expect anything more than what you get. a lot of my friends have the tendency to over-analyze their dates or jump the gun about expressing their feelings....things like that will typically send the person the other way..

i think more people should be open to dating, just go out with the person and try to have a good time. and make sure to meet somewhere, that way if it turns downhill you can simply bail. :D

Being lonely does suck.

Indeed. Every girl I went out with has nothing on there mind but screwing with me. Being lonely sucks a lot but its better to be lonely than to get clown and put through hoops.

that day will come when I find that one girl that understands me....maybe she already pass me by:(


Bless

now i just have multiple relationships --- all the girls i'm with know that i have other girls in my life -- i don't hide that --- but i keep how many to my self --- i feel that the degree of importance each girl has to me, the connection i share wouldn't be honest if i gave it a number.

I have a don't-ask-don't-tell policy. I don't lie, but I don't bring it up. I think that some girls appreciate that. They know there's other girls, but want to try to ignore it.

Quit being such pansies. You'd think getting your heart broken was the end of the world or something.

Seriously good advice :)


Oh, and dating sucks :p No, wait, girls suck :D Actually, I just had a really crummy dating week. :( Things didn't work out with 4 out of 5 girls, leaving me with a discouraging 80% failure rate. Why the hell would people make plans, and tell you they want to see you, and then mysteriously not show up or return calls?!?
 
Dating is fun but I find it somewhat exhausting to keep trying to meet new people. So I'm definitely not a serial dater - if I click with someone I definitely prefer to get out of the game for a while and just hang out with that one person. Then I'm definitely more relaxed, happier, have more time to focus on other things like work, hobbies, etc.

I like it when you can skip past the dating part and straight to making out in the back of a taxicab or on the girl's parents' living room sofa. :cool:

I was skimming and jumped right over the words "making out". My first reaction was like "Woah!". :eek: Then I re-read your statement.

I am a dating kind of guy. I liked the experience of dating and I still do. Only now, it's with my wife. We still try to go out on "dates" where I'll pick her up after work on a Friday and we'll go out to dinner and then to the mall or something. It's a lot of fun, and it's definitely a good way to keep the romance alive.

I'll agree though, that I was never good at meeting girls straight-up. I usually had to be introduced or already know the girl a little before I could muster up the guts to ask her out. Thank God I'm married now. :D
