It's been so long since I've had a guy around it's hard for me to answer...lol
I like using scented lotions...vanilla, plumeria, gardenia....can't use any perfumes if I'm wearing a scented lotion (unless it's the same scent). Otherwise on me I like Chanel #5, Musk & Genji.
Worked on staining my fence today & got to the half way point (50 feet). Went to the gym for about an hour & then came home for a shower. Now that it's 95+ outside, I'm sitting in front of the fan watching tv & relaxing (with the a/c set at 80). Thinking I'm going to take a break from the fence tomorrow and go to the movies.
I've gotten back into the gym & using the weight machines. The one I'm most impressed with is my leg press on a regular sled (not the type with the belt assistance)...140 lbs...3 reps of 8....may not be impressive for a guy like you...but for me it is...lol
When my boys were younger and I was dating (after getting divorced) I didn't introduce them to anyone I was only casually dating. I would also try to make sure any date I had happened on the weekends that the boys were at their dads.
The boys only met 2 men. The first one they met ended up moving in after a few months. I made sure that the boys understood that his things weren't fair game to be used without his permission. His daughter came to visit for a week...I wasn't given the same courtesy...HE loaned her one of my swim suits without asking me first. We had a pretty heated discussion about this & I was accused of not liking his daughter.
We also had a heated discussion about his daughter always sitting up front in the car...even when I was the one doing the driving. My boys never sat in front when we went out together, they always sat in the back with the adults up front. Again, I was accused of not liking his daughter.
Needless to say, that relationship didn't last very long. Both of my boys understood my reason for breaking up with the guy.
So I would say that if the guy isn't willing to treat the daughter as a 9 year old child, with limits and rules, then he's not ready for an adult relationship. The nine year old may at some point in her life regret the way she's acted when she sees and recognizes that her dad is alone because of her. I'd break ties and start looking again.
I remember a guy I met several years ago, from a different site, who had posted his age as 50. His pictures were current because the man I met looked exactly the same. But he told me that he was actually 55 and that he had posted his age as 50 so he wouldn't get cut off in the searches of women who weren't looking for anyone over 50. Nice guy, but made me wonder what else he would "tell story" about.
If I post older pictures, I say that they're older. Although I think my most recent one is 2 years old.
And the majority of the time it's difficult to get anyone from online to actually agree to and follow up with meeting in real life...don't know if they're too chicken of what they'll find....or too chicken to be found out....lol
Oh, and hiya mjames, I've got a son still living in Napa.
Should be good brain work then. I haven't seen the movie yet, just the previews. When you get the movie figured out, let me know, then I'll be able to know what I'm watching...lol
Keep hanging in there and working on your recovery!!!
Thanks Jeff, I'll heed that warning....although I would've thought that the entrails would say something more like "don't try to cross a busy highway during rush hour"
I'd say I don't match anyone.....at least I'm not finding anyone (who I'm interested in) who's willing to commit any time in getting to know each other let alone meet.
Me personally....I don't put much stock into the whole horoscope & star sign stuff. I think if a person is really wanting to make it work with another person, then they'll put the effort into the relationship that's needed.
What I don't like is someone finding out your sign & then deciding you're not compatible....or making generalizations about any one sign......because I don't feel that I follow what's said about Gemini's, so to have someone throw me in the pot with what's suppose to be typical is unfair. That's why I took offense to what Tum had to say.
I think it may fall more in the category of showing independence and showing strength and ability. At least that's the feeling that I'm getting in my everyday life. I'm capable & independent and have achieved owning my own home. In alot of ways I see that turning guys off. One guy that I had asked out about a year & a half ago told me that he didn't see me as the romantic type (at the time I asked him out he was a substitute teacher & I'm the school secretary). I think strong females in any type of position of authority may get looked at the same way. When in reality we may end up being the more romantic.
And from Robbie's post, I've actually been on both sides of the fence as far as being a stay home wife/mom and a working wife/mom. I felt less valued by my husband at the time when I was staying home taking care of the kids vs. when I was out working.
There are also some eastern/asian cultures that you do not want to mess with the females...they're VERY possessive (just ask any of the military guys...lol)
Actually I have a few things I enjoy cooking...chicken curry, something called San Francisco Chops (pork chops with an oriental flavor)...lasagne....spaghetti.
I've also heard no complaints whenever I've done some baking... chocolate chip cookies...snickerdoodles
Just not much fun cooking or baking for one person.
