Let's see... how to say this kindly...

You're the new element in the equation & you want immediate control of the lady's time, before the relationship is even established?


Well, if you expect immediate gratification(nonsexual or other wise) just because you managed to swap a few letters, I suggest you take a moment to notice how hard people have to work in this day & age. Not only are parenting issues far more important than you, but businesses, health & all those little things that existed long before you came along all have greater value for the time being. Perhaps this is why patient men tend to spend less time complaining about their dating issues & more time enjoying life until they see their new lady again. Investing efforts into a relationship (even if it's just a friendship) doesn't mean drop everything & jump. It's not the Army, not a fire drill, and not life threatening... but like the stock market, you can either be a bull or a bear.
The bull will tear through anything to get to it's objective. Not really sexy to most women... but have fun with that one, if it's your thing.
The bear will steadily work it's way to a comfortable place. The idea of steady & reliable efforts has much more appeal... so much so, it's recommended as a much better approach for the average person. That doesn't just apply to money, business & investments... but to personal relationships as well.

Kind of makes one wonder why/what you see more of...
children with stuffed toy bulls or stuffed toy bears.

*hmmmm...

(Just a thought)

Damn smart chicks, it's cool that you'll add oil to our truck when the light comes on,

instead of driving it home to ask what the light means,

but you're awfull hard on our shortcuts.

*awww...
Well, if you want shortcuts...
I hear toothless Sally one 5th & Main runs a special on Saturday nights.
That's about as quick as you can get it.
sticking out tongue
rolling on the floor laughing



But really now, why would anyone want a shortcut to a relationship?
That's a bit like playing Russian roulette with your entire mental, physical, & emotional existence(and possibly even your financial status too, eh gang?)
But hey, maybe quick attractions to psycho girlfriends(or boyfriends) make some people happy.
I wouldn't know too much about that... I like my mates sane & sexy... like me.

Do you have time for a relationship? Is the question!

One person said that a single parent is busy with kids and activities and a lot of other stuff before the potential partner showed up so the potential partner should sit back and wait til their not so busy!
A lot of people are on the site because they were to busy with everything else to maintain the romance in their home life and it fell apart!

A person places an ad for some one who will be very important in their life then they say not right now, I'm too busy wait a week or two, when it's offered! The person who responded doesn't really expect to get put on hold while the advertiser visits old friends or starts a new painting!

What I'm saying is, if you place an ad for a partner on the site you should budget some of your time to meet those people who respond to your invitation in a timely manner! If you don't have time to respond to a request for a meeting, and you like the person, why post the ad? Your tying up the person that responded for the week or two that they wait. What time will you have later to devote to a second or third date?

Doesn't it concern you that the advertiser is accepting many dates without really screening them and just sticking you in amongst the crowd and wasting your time and money! The attitude is like being in a candy store ..

OK .. go ahead and beat me up now.here's to you

If it's easier to blame her I can end your confusion right now.... she posted the add to feed her ego,



but it's still my opinion that when she is really interested in someone,


she probably finds the time to see them.

Now now... no one needs to be beaten up.

Your scenario leads one to believe this example person is a potentially busy, very free spirited individual. There's nothing wrong with that... but if you have issue with the amount of time it leaves you to have a relationship, then the fault doesn't lay on the shoulders of the rather "busy" person. Choosing a partner, a date or even a friend has to be done based on many factors. Their schedules & what they choose to do with their time are going to be part of that process.

So, it's not simply a matter of does so-n-so have time for a relationship, but rather who has the matching attitude on time scheduling for your tastes.

"beat you up"...naaa I dont have "time" for that either. your just a guy who seems to have extra time on his hands and expects/wants a woman to put you and time with you ahead of other priorities she may already have.....there has to be some compromise in all things...am sure theres someone for everyone, so again am sure you will find a woman who will "drop" everything for you...cheers
