Zeelander: I'm just not even remotely pretty enough to go on a reality show.

You are right, I feel bad for going along with this... I am a bad man and should just give it up.

zee



No, you´re not a bad man... my thoughts are one of two things...

Either you´ve let her picture and job title effect you into thinking you´re Lucky to be given a shot with someone like this, which means you don´t value yourself very much....

or you just can´t resist a challenge....

jbibiza: Win???? Win what???? The reason you want to go out with this woman who is casually lining up everything in pants so that she can to see if anything strikes her fancy, is that you might win? Why don´t you just go on reality TV, at least there you have a chance at a million bucks.

I´ve never been someone who does casual dating... I know some of you will find that difficult to believe because I have admited to having one night stands or brief "flings" but as I also said.... it´s never casual for me. There has to be a connection that I feel for a person before I will date or sleep with them.

I often have men ask me out for dinner or to a club, but unless I feel a strong possibility that something more could happen between us... I turn them down. I´d feel guilty letting a guy wine and dine me if I didn´t think it was possible for it to go somewhere.


Hi Sweetie,

I think I can see your point. But here comes the "but"
Do you really think that all men, who would pay for the check "dine & wine you" will do so just to get you in bed??

Not at all.... and if that was all it was, I have no problem dealing with that. It´s the ones that fall in love, the ones who are looking for a romantic relationship... these are the guys I worry about. I´m not going to lead someone on or make them think there is a possibility of something relationship wise if I know there isn´t.

Zeelander: Today I was asked out on a date. The woman in my oppinion is a hottie (just ask her). After about 30 minutes of chatting in IM she admitted to me that she was currently dating 5 other guys. She tole me that she was looking for the right guy and conducting her own little reality show, but without cameras. I admit I am always up for a challenge and I think I can win this one..... but.....

What are the rules for dating here?

Zee
just be yourself. Honesty is the best policy if you try to go with someone else thoughts and opinions you would not be the real you and then the relationship gets sarted in a bad direction. If you win you win knowing that she really wants you grin

Zee -- You probably WOULD win... You're an awesome guy.

But, having won, would you really be happy with the "prize?"

dunno

Ok, now for some brutal honesty.... I want no comments on this, I just want to get this off my chest.

I don't know why I get so many emails from women, I don't know why I am asked out by women that I feel are way too pretty for me, I don't know why women with class culture and/or intelligents would even cosider me as a good enough person to ask out for a date?... I look at myself in the mirror and don't see it. I am an over achiever. I am driven... I have NO lack of confidentce. Sometimes my ego can be too big. Maybe this should have been another thread.

No comments on this please.

Nope, winning would have been enough, but that is a bit mean to lie to someone just to win.

btw... I am not awsome, I am a jerk at times

I think she would've been wiser not to mention the other 5 guys.

If I wanted to do something like this I certainly wouldn't advertise it to the "men" I was dating.

I think we've all done this to some extent, when you're setting up your first time meets with someone you've been talking to on line....you might have one set up for Monday evening...a different person set up for Thursday....and someone else for Saturday.

If the one you meet on Monday is someone you'd like to see again, then do so. If they want to go out Saturday, just say you've already got plans, but you're free the following weekend.

I kinda feel that if you get to three dates with the same person, then maybe concentrate on that person to see where it goes. dunno

Personally I like the honesty in her telling me and knowing she told the others.... any one of them could have dropped out.

Zeelander: Actually I don't know them, they don't know me and I don't think they know eachother. We are all older than her... she is 38.

To me, it is just a social experiment.

About the tv shows here... I don't know, I don't own a tv.

So five guys, have all agreed to date this woman, and she has been honest, (bless her) and told you, that all the others guys know about each other? Now women can be stupid, especially if they have a bit of low self esteem, they do silly things. ]

But, professor my question is this, one silly woman, FIVE stupid men, who all AGREED to this?

I lived in the US, is this how you do things out there?
