Well money is of course a beginning. But also I have run into single moms that just want a glorified babysitter. Or God forbid they are wanting to play cat and mouse mental games to resolve some demon of the past or something. LOL I have to admit, of all the places I hang on the net this is truly THE site full of cool people. Anyway who's hiding the Jack, op! Just fell off the couch.
Whoa, sounds like you've had a pretty wild ride there...I guess it really is a hazardous place this crazy dating world, but there are genuine folk out there, and here, and like attracts like, so I can only suggest you hang in there, you've learnt a bit along the way. and you are clearer on what you are looking for.
every one vents! I think in one way or another,,,, you just hang out and I bet it will happen to you,,,,you will meet or be met with a special someone,,,,LOL,,, it can happen!!! ;-}
Okay, back to the soap box. Why is it everybody my age want to hike up a mountain and climb the spire at the top of it for fun? That sounds like work to me. Is there a prize at the top? And I sure as hell ain't gonna run, or jog, unless something is chasing me. You know what I like to do, smoke a cigarette, drink a cup of coffee and have a really good conversation. They get a rush out of their activities, I get a rush out of learning something new. Don't get me wrong, I'm not lazy, I just don't like that stuff. One think I do like is a WALK, a nice slow WALK, through the woods down the street I enjoy a good walk. I dig holes and ditches and all kinds of "active" things at work, after you've spent five days up to your rear end in snow and chipping frosty dirt you don't want to take a damn hike. People find out I don't like to be active and they assume I'm boring. Let me tell you I am FAR from boring, I can talk your leg off on just about any subject and have sudden wants to do interesting things. Like go to Denny's at 2 am and hang out looking at the weirdos, oh wait. ANYWAY I grew up around old people, they have fun in different ways. Ask me to play poker, let's go to a movie, be creative. And I had a person comment on the fact that I was a little too curt, and brass tacks honest for her. Let me ask you something, you ever have someone point a loaded gun at you and tell you you're not going to shut off their water? It happens to me twice or three times a year, you get a little calloused and very honest after you have dealt with things like that for years on end. So anyway I gotta go. I just wanted to gripe, and to all you goody two shoes active types out there, go take a friggin' hike.
