I am not too serious when I go on a date. My expectations are very little. Mostly because I've experienced a lot of rejection while others I felt no connection. On the other hand I feel excited in meeting a prospect and happy to meet new people. However, I've lived alone for over 10 years and I enjoy my independence. Sometimes I question if I spent too much time alone and it influenced my judgment of others unjustly. How serious are you in your first couple of dates?
Today I got an email from a friend I never met and we are going to meet over dinner sometime. The first thing she told me was that her photo does not show the small wrinkles at the corner of her eyes and around her lips. Do all women worry about such things? For both men and women, age is the beauty of wisdom and wrinkles develop on all living things including babies.
Have you experienced someone being attracted to you and you had no interest? In some cases the person attracted to you makes you go away real fast. I went out with a beautiful friend for dinner once and she saw a guy standing in line; she had a causal conversation with him while waiting for a table. When he went to his table she told me she was attracted and wanted to connect with him, so I walked over to introduce myself as her friend and gave him her phone number and told him she was interested in getting to know him. He only smiled but never responded and never called. I felt so sorry for her being attracted to someone who didn't reciprocate.
Shallow people are not only based on good looks. My ex was not very attractive and she was shallow. Selfish, self-centered and no feelings for anyone but herself.
I've been told I'm too old and some say I'm too skinny. No matter what or who you are, you can never win in the arena of opinion. So what is your insecurity?
Not much fun if you're single though. I went to a south sea island once and they were all couples. I was the only single guy. Fortunately I got a date with the time share lady. Spent the day touring and drinking.
Once I met a beautiful young lady with a figure that could kill, and being stupid as I am, I talked her into moving in with me. Things were good although I felt a little uneasy with her. For instance, every time I went to work (I was a ticket agent for a major bus company)she would spend the day sitting and watching me and eying every young woman who would purchase a ticket from me.Every man who entered the building would try to pick her up. After work we would go to the pub. Every time I went to the toilet upon my return 2 or 3 guys would be sitting with her. No matter where we went guys would be watching her. She claimed she loved me and everything else but I couldn't handle being together with her and having such emotional distress. She was the most gorgeous woman I ever met but I had to kick her out of my life, her physical attraction that attracted other men was not worth the misery. I'm sure all the attention turned her on while I was being turned off.
Are you searching for a partner or are you connected? Searching seems to be a very difficult job. I thought there was a lot of single people out there looking to hook up and if I put out my profile it would just be a matter of days or weeks before I find someone. BOY, WAS I WRONG!!!!
It depends on what the omission is. If it affects both people in a relationship i.e. cheating, serious disease or other things that might be a burden to both partners then it is deception and a lie. Other personal things that has nothing to do with your partner is ok to omit.
Perhaps being saved from major hell on earth is an indication of bigger and better things later in life. It all depends on your passion, willingness and desires. CAUTION! Beware of warning signs in communication and meeting personal needs.
If I look into the future and see my untimely death I don't think I would have any option to change it. Something like jumping out of a 30-story building window and changing my mind in mid flight.
It would be nice to get a Valentine's greeting card but unlikely because (sadly) for many,the idea of such a loving greeting seems to be used as something between lovers only and not friends but what the hell, I'm a lover and child of the universe; I love everyone, so look out!
