Booger Hand!
2007-03-10 04:53:09 From Netscape…too funny to pass up I had been dating this guy for about 2 months. I decided to stop in at a bookstore because we had a few moments to spare before the start of the movie we were going to see. After showing me a really romantic picture from a book he was looking at, he leaned toward me and, in a really sexy voice, asked if he could kiss me. Just when I was getting ready to pucker up, I saw the biggest booger hanging off his mustache. I was so disgusted that I refused to kiss him, and told him why. So he wiped it off his mouth and onto his pants, and then tried to caress my face with the same booger hand! He ended up seeing the movie by himself. — Lily, 24 Netscape, movie, booger, bookstore, romance, dating, relationship More About: Hand
Ladies, Stop It!!!!!!!
2007-03-06 16:50:02 What is it with some women? They think its OK to play dudes. OK OK, I know it goes the other way too. But since I am a guy i am not in the habit of playing guys. I am tired of being played. It seems that women (not all, I am not that stupid) have no problem playing guys. They tell you what they think you want to hear, lead them on, make them believe there is something there when they have not sincere intentions whatsoever. And just when the guy thinks all is well, BAM!, “its over”, “talk to the hand”. Well stop it ladies. While it is true that most guys are not as sensitive and feeling as women, some are. I have talked to a few guys over the last few days who have just been destroyed by lying conniving women. Whatever happened to genuineness and sincerity and honesty and integrity? Maybe some people need to relearn the golden rule. dating, women, relationships, player, Golden Rule, sensitive, feeling, integrity, honesty, genuine More About: Stop , Ladies , Dies , Adie
Are you having fun?? Yeah?well no.
2007-03-05 16:49:01 OK this is just too good to not post. I had been talking to this very nice lady online and over IM and on the phone for a week or more. We decided that we should go out. I told her that there was a dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe and karaoke at a local theater afterwards on Friday night (an activity with other singles in the area) and would she like to go. She said she would love to. So I picked up my date at the established time and headed to the restaurant. We got there and were greeted by the ‘hostess’ of the party. The ‘hostess’ informed us that she had planned some ‘get to know each other’ activities and gave us instructions. Anyway, we both started participating in the activities. Now it turned out to be a fairly large group, maybe 50+ which is a lot of people. I thought it was great that my date was participating and she seemed to be having a good time. After a few minutes of the activity we sat ourselves at a table and proceeded to... More About: Fun , Having fun , Ving , Well , Yeah
Long Ass Night
2007-03-05 16:49:01 I have been holding on to this story for a while now trying to decide if I should post it. Guess what I decided. I have been talking to this lady, I’ll call her “K”, for a few months now. Not everyday mind you but every couple of weeks we would talk. We often said that we should meet and chat and have dinner or something. Well i did not really put a lot of thought into this because it seemed that it would NEVER happen. She just seemed to distracted. In fact there were times that we would be talking and she would have to go and would say “I’ll call you right back”. I’m like “OK, cool”. She would never call back. So I really did not think we would ever meet. Well one Friday we were talking and decided that we should meet that night for dinner. I was like “wow, its really gonna happen”. Anyway I drove down to her house, nearly an hour away. I got there and rang the bell. She answered the door but was o... More About: Night , Long
Why do you stay?
2007-03-02 04:46:01 I have this friend at work. Great guy we get along famously. There is only one issue and it drives me nuts. Maybe some of you can relate and give me some insight. My friend has this girlfriend (they have been dating for over a year) who is EXTREMELY high maintenance. She will only buy clothes in Las Vegas cuz she thinks for some reason he clothes are better there. Its nothing for her to spend $200 on a pair of jeans. Anyway this is not so troubling as what I am about to tell you. This girl has been diagnosed as bipolar. As a psych major and social worker I know something about this. She believes that she does not have to take her medicine. Now this is all fine except that she becomes the BITCH from hell. Treats him like crap. Yells at him. She has been so mean to him, and he has become so stressed, that he had to get counseling for himself (thank heavens our employer has an EAP). The thing that I don’t understand is why he stays.

A little clarification please?.
2007-03-02 04:46:01 OK, i am in need of some clarification on a dating issue. Here is the scenario. You contact someone really nice, you talk to them (online or by phone) for a while then decide that you want to go on a date, in fact they claim to be way excited to meet you. Since it is sometimes hard to work around schedules and what not, a specific date is not set at this time. You have just stated that you want to go out and BOTH parties state this. Then while you are trying to find a time that works for both of you in the not too distant future, they email or call (or have a mutual friend call) and say “I have found someone that I really like. We just met yesterday but I really like them and we are dating now”. Well, we kinda had plans didn’t we? OMH, me thinks that is some serious rejection (well maybe not rejection cuz you never went out… but still). What is going on here? Is this normal behavior? Your thoughts are appreciated. dating, phone call, relationship, r... More About: Cat , Little , Please , Lease , Ease
Dating Class
2007-03-02 04:46:01 Originally posted in Jeremy Zawodnys Blog Entry - Dati ng Class . I enjoyed it so I’m sharing it. Derek says: There ought to be a class for people who positively suck at talking to members of the opposite sex. And then continues with: I mean, let’s presume for the moment that you were not the sort of person to pick up that social skill-set during high-school. Where exactly are you going to learn it in today’s society? First impressions, especially on the topic of romance, are so terribly crucial, and if you screw it up, it doesn’t matter how much chemistry you and the other person might have had if given the chance, it’ll all be for naught because the first impression will have already been blown. (See also: I Need To Think Like A Single Guy and Quantifying Derek’s Lameness.) And then goes on to discuss the problem of today’s “dating scene,” including the lack of any good feedback when you’re rejected. I certa...

Come back to my place?well maybe not
More articles from this author:2007-03-02 04:46:01 From a female reader After conversing briefly with a gentleman on a dating website, I accepted his invitation to meet for lunch one Saturday. Fearing for the safety of my children, I make it standard practice to not bring men I haven’t met to my home. So the plan was set for me to meet him in the Albertson’s parking lot and from there we would go to lunch. As I drove into the parking lot I glanced around the area that I was to meet him and thought to myself “oh, he’s not here yet.” Ok, maybe this wasn’t fair but I parked very far away from that area so that I could get a peek from a distance, just so I could have a chance to run if things just didn’t look right. One of my favorite past-times in a crowded place is to people watch so while I was waiting there with nothing else to do, I noticed this little old, unshaven, dirty man sitting in his, I’d say 1980’s rusty old station wagon. He had used parts from other cars (diffe... More About: Maybe , Back , Come , Place , Lace 1, 2 |
