Please define ?player?.
2007-02-28 16:45:01
While chatting online to some friends (and yes they are just friends), as i was talking to more than one, my 13 year old son said to me, “dad, you are a player”. This was a bit of a shock to me. It is true that I do date a variety of ladies, and some non ladies, LOL. However when I want to date just one person I do so. Anyway, I have never considered myself a player. Maybe I am. I would love to hear others’ definitions of a player. Is it simply someone who dates a lot of different women or is there something else to being a true player. Maybe I don’t want to be a player. Maybe I do. Please share you definition of player. dating, player, chatting, online, ladies, friends

So here is the deal?
2007-02-28 16:45:01
…I have spoken to many many women who seem to sit and complain that the guy they are dating is not so into them. Or at least not at the same level of commitment as they are. Well let me say this. Maybe the guys you are going for, are not the guys who will be committed to a relationship with you and your children (if you have any). Sometimes the ‘best’ guys are not the richest or best looking or best kissers. Ladies, (if you fit the above description) maybe you need to look past the bankbook or the GQ smile and find the guy that is gonna adore you and be committed to you no matter what (and I mean no matter what). Just my two cents worth and since this is my blog I can say it LOL. dating, relationships, GQ, kissing, committment

From This Day Forward

I found this tidbit posted on the netscape love channel. just had to share it. I went and met this guy from the internet. I know I?m an idiot, but hear me out. So, he tells me to meet him five hours away. He said he?d be filling up my tank and said we?d have the best time with unlimited booze. Since my car does well on gas, I said why not? I go there, and he gives me twenty-four dollars, a far cry from the sixty I was promised. Anyway, we drank a few shots. Then, ten minutes later, he said he was going on a beer run, which turned out to be a lie, and that he probably wouldn?t be back. So, I was pissed and drunk. Before he left, he did say I could chill in his cold living room since he didn?t want people to be in his bedroom while he was gone. He left me alone with his seven roommates. So, I decided to plot revenge. I was alone. Of course, nobody was talking to me. So, I did the unthinkable. He said no smoking cigarettes in the house. So, I emptied my entire ashtray (which was a cup...

Does age really matter?
2007-02-28 16:45:01
OK, here is the question that I pose to you. In dating does age really matter? (assuming all parties are of legal age). I recently went on a date with someone quite a bit younger than myself. And while the date was nice, I often wondered if there is some unwritten rule of “appropriate age differences”. I have heard a few myself, like the two hand rule. Which states that ten fingers = ten years. You can date someone ten years either way and be OK. I am sure there are more rules out there. Please feel free to shared them with our readers.

Apples and Wine
2007-02-28 16:45:01
This tidbit came to us from a nice lady via email. It is not really a story but it is funny none the less. Women are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree. Most men don’t want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they sometimes take the apples from the ground that aren’t as good, but easy pickings. The apples at the top think something is wrong with them, when in reality, they’re amazing. They just have to wait for the right man to come along, the one who is brave enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree. Now Men……… Men are like a fine wine. They begin as grapes, and it’s up to women to stomp the shit out of them until they turn into something acceptable to have dinner with. apples, grapes, wine, men, women

He Said Then She Said

From a female in MO This is a very sucky date story. It wasn’t really that the date itself was bad but the after date stuff that went way wrong. I went out with this guy, lets call him “R”, whom i had been introduced to through a relative of mine who worked with this guy. He seemed like a great guy so i agreed to go out with him. We went to dinner and and has a wonderful time. After the evening was over “R” dropped me off at home and said that he would love to see me again and I was ok with seeing him as well. Well a week or so later I happened to be visiting the relative at her job. While I was there I saw a not very attractive lady working in the same office who looked somewhat familiar to me. I tried to figure out where I knew her from but could not place her. I asked my realtive who she was and she started to laugh. She said “oh yeah I was going to tell you, that is “R” he is now known as “A”. “A” ...

Hot Date
2007-02-28 16:45:01
Originally posted on my dear friends dating blog Dating with Children My friend J from Idaho recently had a date that was too entertaining to pass up. She and her interest met up at Lava Hot Springs for a dip in a hot pool, some dinner, and possibly some smooching. Things were going along pretty well for them. The conversation was easy, there weren?t a lot of first date jitters going on (might have had something to do with being half naked in a mineral hot spring, but that?s just my little opinion inserted!). Anyway, after soaking, relaxing and conversing for some time, they decided they were soaked out and readied themselves to leave for dinner. After they had exited the spring, my friend had an odd feeling come over here and suddenly plummeted headlong back into the spring. She had fainted! As she was with a brawny hero-type man, that would probably have been okay except for he thought the she had purposely jumped back in for one last hurrah. He watched her writhing around at the...

From a female in UT I lost my testimony of “blind dates” when I went out with …we will call him, John. My mother felt it was time for me to go out on a date and so she set me up with …. John. He wore an orange shirt and short shorts and his hair was in the fashion of Albert Einstein on a windy day. I knew something wasn’t quite right with him when the first thing he did was gave me a very remarkable bear hug which I think a hand shake would of been just peachie. The plan was to go out to eat and hit the local movie theater. I felt a little curious as we went threw the McDonald’s drive thru. Seeing the golden arches as they lit up the night sky and all the while wishing we could of gone somewhere a little more romantic I suppose. I was sitting rather passively in the car as John ordered an “Apple juice” and I thought and wondered..that’s kind of a sissy drink for a date….I am not dissing apple juice. Apple juice is full o...

She?s Just Not That Into You.
2007-02-28 16:45:01
I was recently introduced to a book titled “He’s Just Not That Into You” written by Greg Behrendt and Liz Tuccillo. Some of you may have heard of this book, it was featured on Oprah. Some of you may have even read it. The book was inspired by an episode of Sex and the City in which Miranda asks Carrie’s boyfriend, Berger, to analyze the post-date behavior of a potential love interest. Because the man declined Miranda’s invitation to come up to her apartment after the date, Berger concludes that “he’s just not that into you,” adding that “when a guy’s really into you, he’s coming upstairs.” Well I was skimming through said book while on a date and the question arose so how does a GUY know if a girl is into HIM. I would love to know the signs that show whether or not a girl is into the guy. Here is my take on this. Guys you might know if the girl is into if 1) She even invites you upstairs. 2) She sits next to...
