I love that slightly scared, excited feeling of getting ready for a date. That's the closest I come to being scared about dating, and I like it, is that weird?
Scottishlass: I guess this is for those of you (us) who've been single and out of the "dating scene" for a while.
This online dating thing gives us a chance to "meet" people we might not ordinarily meet, and that's a good thing when you aren't into the bar scene.
I guess I'm wondering if there are other people out there as afraid of getting back into dating as I find myself? I've met lots of nice people here, .....but, what is the next step?
What scares you the most about the "next step?"
Hhm ......... I don't feel fear but sometimes just feel a little anxious especially when I think I'm really going to like this person.
Seems the ones I like the most don't end up liking me and the one's that I'm so/so about or don't really like - like me. Not sure why that happens and that's a little frustrating sometimes.
There is only onething that scares me about dating. or at least from online. You talk get to know each other, start to have feelings, then when you meet one or the other decides there is no attraction. wouldn't be bad if it were both opinions, but one side or the other scares the hell out of me
StressFree: Nothing to be completely honest with you. I'd rather take a chance then sit home and feel sorry for myself. Gotta make it happen. Screw fear....
perfectly put ........ life is too short... u have to take a chance... it may as well be this.. and if he or she is not the one for you thats ok... it happens... the tight one will come along ...( for me eventually lol)

OOOPS - change quick b4 stephen sees it... The RIGHT one ..lol... sorry
alabamabebe: That's just wrong ship, if they're expecting you to be something other than what you are, they're the one with the problem, not you.
No, I don't think that is wrong. I think others should worry about how they appear, to a perspective partner. Many just don't care. I am so worried that I won't be what they are expecting, I usually cancel before we even meet!
StressFree: So that means you are not afraid of coming to Sweden for a date? ....jk
I'm certainly not afraid of coming to Sweden (my dog has family there, would be nice to meet them some day), but as for dates, LMAO, I'm not so sure (and not because I'm afraid).
