It depends on ther person. I dated a man a year younger than me which I never thought I would do (never younger) but we reltaed well. I also dated a mand 15 years older than me. So, go figure. The older man did not last because he was a womanizer of younger women but very worldly and taught me a lot at a young age. The younger man just did not have it together enough to have a long term relationship and still was at the struggling stage. I am ready to settle down now. ~ 36 female
I agree, a zoo is one place you don't want to be stuck at and you know how time consuming the zoo is and how big it is and if you find that he is not right for you, you will be pretty dissapointed, especially if he is a total opposite. I light meal out would be good. Better yet, at a BB or house party with other people so you can mingle else where if the connection does not spark. Only problem, is it may be difficult being invited to such parties with other singles. So many of the good ones are taken.
You tell me. I consider myself pretty normal and good looking and great personality and I'm still confused about finding "The One". So, I just wait and time goes by and I date and I know it is not ever going to anywhere else. Pretty sad, ha? lol
I have been taking care of myself and dating. But, i was just saying that it would be nice to be swept off of my feet and reasured that I was going to be safe financially for the rest of my life and so will my children and any future children I would have with him. That is all.
I agree. I th ink you build a little more trust with a man if he takes his time with you and takes the time to invest in something that obviously shows a mutual attraction to one another... it also makes it kind of exciting to think about what it would be like once he makes the actual move.... but not to wait too long. But, when he does, you both know it is an investment to a long term relationship built on respect.
Is there relly such a thing as finding that special man who you can fall in love with and he will take care of you?? I know that in todays world, that is no longer real. There has to be two incomes and you can never quit work to raise your children any more or if you do only for a short time. I like working, and having money. But, it would be like a dream come true to know that I would always be safe and taken care of financially and my children would be in good schools and we would have the money to take great memory making vacations and great health because of the time and investiment in having fun together playing tennis and staying helathy and happy. I am a single mom and I live in a small apartment with my kids and I work. I had been dating someone but that is all it had been for 3 years. Any responces?
