Sweet_And_Sassy: Well I might buy that if it had not been as simple as...
him telling me "I'm very interested. [Sent me flower]. We have so much in common. Call me on my phone".

Then (I) ask appropriate questions.

and his reply was rude and childish!

I would send you all of our emails, but I deleted them already. I have NOTHING to hide. Although I sense your skepticism.

nothing personally...
believe me....

sylvana: no you are not wrong
usually men want
sex
someone to cook and clean
someone to rise up their kids

only very few can open themselves
and are really interested
who we are
and what we want in this life

your choice


Dating should be looked at like a marathon, not a sprint. Finding out about someone and checking the basics is a starting point. You should avoid those who want to talk about sex right from the start, and those who don't want to get to know you at all. Be cautious, and stick to your instincts.

DUBLINGUY1973: I used to think that if someone wanted me to call them right away, that was a huge red flag right there. Whats the rush?

A lot of people can be guarded because of previous relationships (getting hurt before) but its not fair to expect you to share stuff about yourself, if they are not willing to do the same.

I'd just mark it down to experience and move on


Well if I considered getting a phone number from a man, a HUGE RED FLAG, I'd never get to know anyone. Seems *most* men on dating sites are unable (or unwilling) to TYPE! Go figure.

Also, if asking what you like to do for dates is too personal for someone...they certainly should NOT be on a DATING site.

Oh yes. I have moved on. He is blocked and deleted, and soon forgotten. I was just looking for a little feedback on what you folks thought. I seem to enjoy talking in forums...because at least you people will TYPE!

Great advice, except I've been looking for over TEN years. Not exactly a "Sprint". I am cautious, and patient. But it gets super frustrating at times.

You should've stopped asking questions and proposed marriage. A stellar guy like that doesn't come along very often. smile

No kidding! Now you see why my patience wears a little thin at times? I try to give people a fair chance, but when they are so rude and insulting, for no reason. Well, I need to work on getting some thicker skin. <- never has been one of my strengths.

I am strong enough though, to know I should never EVER settle again! And for over ten years I have stayed true to that. purple heart

Permanently retire? Excuse me??? If you knew me, you'd know why that is rediculous. I've got way too much love (& other stuff) to spend the rest of my life alone. I will search until I die, if it takes that long.

Very nice, Sassy, very nice indeed. A balmy 84, with clouds floating by to block the sun a bit. The air's clean from a recent rain. The beer is ice cold. Can't get much better than this...

Ah, who the heck am I kidding. It could be a whole helluva lot better than this if I had a certain person's company about now...crying wave hug laugh
