MrInteresting: Other than that incident, and I tried to be as good about it as I could (given it was sprung on me), sure, I would see her, again.
I think I still might, tbh. No harm going to the flix, or something.
Guess I am just uber cautious, given the fact that my ex had Borderline, and there were early signs of attention seeking behaviours, which I ignored.

You may be cautious, but are you still drawn to women who are a bit emotionally fragile? What have you changed about yourself since that last relationship? If you have not changed then you will magnetize yourself to the same relationship again, just with a different looking body.
You are trying to teach yourself something here. Why are YOU attracted to women who are weak and emotionally unstable? Perhaps it is the knight in shining armor syndrome. Or some care taker thing. Always best to look within rather than without when something unhealthy repeats itself. JMO

Englishman55: Blimey....... you don't half talk alot of sense for a Brit
Time to fess up? I play the Brit card when it suits me, its fun, especially with Aussies and Americans, but I'm of such mixed nationality, ethnicity and race that I make the dog look posh, tee hee hee.

venusenvy: Ya know Mr I. Im thinking you might be getting into a situation where your not seeing the forests for the trees. Your getting so hung on This behaviour that your forgetting to look for all the other things you would on a date. Like compatability and commonality and likemindeness. It seems to me to be a good smoke screen and manipulation on the womans part. The whole thing is a huge red flag to me and screams of emotional instability. However, its up you to decide how much of that you can take. I wish you luck

It does sound a little dramatic for a first date, but her feelings could easily been brought about by your discussion of your daughter or one never knows, maybe she saw or heard a little baby nearby and that brought it on? Kinda understandable as it is an extremely emotional issue even if it happened a while back! I think you have to trust your instincts and if her behaviour brought back memories of your ex, perhaps that should be regarded as a red flag? On the other hand, if you instinctively liked her in every other way (including that hard to explain chemistry) then it is worth giving it another shot! Good luck!!!

MrInteresting: At the moment, I am leaning toward the second option, perhaps see her once more, assess it..?
Firstly congrats on gettin' to meet someone even if it was on another site and secondly only you know if there was a red flag or not .. not because of what she did though rather the fact that she chose to tell you on a first date and then there could be several reasons why she chose to tell you..Only you know what and whom is best for you ...
It matters not what others think, it is what you feel. Simple. If you want to save her, you can. If you want to make her safe, you can. What is it you want from this woman? Can she make you feel better about yourself? People only see second hand, and there is nothing wrong with second hand. Some trash is treasure to others. May you make the right choice in your life. out baby!

If I were you I would be considering sending a tape to the biggest TV company in the UK - you must have a natural gift for getting people to spill their guts - a la Tom Cruise jumping on the sofa kind of thing??
