Oh I'm not giving up, not nearly. I've not even been 'date ready' with single motherhood, full time job and school, and other family duty. I just thought it was rather 'cheap' of a guy to do something like that. And for those that have known me for a while know how rare it is for me to go on a date or even entertain the thought, so it was kind of a low blow for me to say yes then be stood up.
I'm all good, just was geared to get out of the house and have a decent night. I have patients, but it would be nice to have a guy be considerate of me as much as I am of him. If that fails then at least being able to rely on them doing what they say would be a bonus. If I ran across both attributes I'd feel like I won a jackpot.
3) I'm lazy and don't feel like standing in a government line for 4 hours on my day off for a form I have to mail back in and a stamp from a county clerk 2 months later.
I don't mean to be, and it's good to be seen. But it is honestly like I said, every time I pop by to check the top threads I feel like grabbing some popcorn and tissues, it's always so hate filled.
Now, I know I've got several switches on my psycho-meter, but I try not to indulge most of the channels.
Don't make me go looking for the duct tape, really - I'm not a man hater, I dislike people equally. So don't lump me on your side of this battle, I'm in castle already eating candied figs.
True but that isn't the total sum of it, when I was 28 I dated a man 19 yrs older than me, with the exception of a couple of 'false starts' I haven't been interested in anyone since and I'm 35 now.
I'm picky but not in the way people typically assume. I am drawn to men who have certain traits from life stamped on their face and men my age (then and most even now) don't have that yet. Certain qualities such as being kind, gentle, patient, understanding, while still honestly finding joy in life (love of laughter)that are etched into a man's face draw me like a lode stone.
I've had insomnia for years, tried everything legal, sometimes a thing works for a while, usually not. It works in my favor during my semesters though.
