October 7, 2014 at 10:52 am #367729Sherri
Btw ladies today is my “hump” day and tomorrow my parents are back till they fly out. So totally putting FWB and “Ted” to lots of use today.
On another note – yeah, cancellation guy has been in touch so brownie points in his favour. I am just not sure if he is a guy I would be attracted to. But I always try to meet if the guys pass my RED flags test. As I have been really surprised at the guys that do attract me and the ones that don’t. And he is 5″11 so that’s in his favour.
Two other guys have been in touch. – Both live a bit too far for me and so I am not so sure. Lets see if they can make the effort to come to me to meet else they are out. One guy is 47 years (12 years older than me) and I have never gone as high as that but he seems interesting so just chatting for now.
October 7, 2014 at 10:59 am #367732PhoebeSherri…..lol! Thanks, girlie. :)
October 7, 2014 at 12:40 pm #367748PhoebeJust heard from Harley….he showed up, he is lively and lovely, but she’s not attracted to him.
I’m sure she’ll us in with more details when it’s done.October 7, 2014 at 1:00 pm #367750AnnSending happy energy to Harley and all of us…….
October 7, 2014 at 1:22 pm #367752PhoebeI know you all understand what I meant, but I HATE typos. lol. I meant to say she Will fill us in later. lol. Good grief.
October 7, 2014 at 4:28 pm #367776HarleyI’m home 4 hrs later. No spaerk for me at all. I talked all night and had to drag convo out of him. As soon as I told him I did not fancy him, his mood slightly changed. he asked what was wrong with him ,why didn’t i fancy him.. came across as needy. he tried to keep getting me to drink and said i could stay the night. A nice guy.. but not for me. h e seemed to sulk when I said i did not fancy him.
unfortunately.. it made me realise more how easy and natural all was with Frank.
My German mate Ralf got in touch.. he’s looking forward to seeing me in a few weeks.. he’s taken with a thai gf. I told him to arrange a good halloween party for us.. He said he saw Frank sat eve but forgot to mention i was coming over ( I bet .. he wants to try to make a pass at me ! Anyway, I told him I would contact frank nearer the time… see how they all like THAT !
Anyway.. i ended up paying for my ow drink and food.. he made a token protest.. stingy git !
October 7, 2014 at 5:15 pm #367787AnnHarley, did you flat out say “I don’t fancy you?” That takes balls!!
October 7, 2014 at 5:25 pm #367793HarleyI said ” I’m not interested in you”.. “it’s not you.. it’s me”.. the classic line. Then I explained i still wasn’t over someone else.. no wonder he sulked. ha ha ha . big child.
October 7, 2014 at 9:00 pm #367820SherriWhat’s up hot guys n boring conversations today?? Two guys chatting me up online. Both hot looking. Both really boring at chatting. One guy asks me to ask him questions n answers in one word answers. Told him looking for guys whom I can converse with not guys looking or an interview n giving one word answers. Don’t think we are compatible. All the best in your search.
The other guy started interesting and now has turned boring. And he is a model. Wth is going on??
Both really hot guys. What a waste!!!
October 8, 2014 at 3:21 am #367872HarleyRaven and I were just talking about the same. Lazy..immature guys these days putting in no effort. I talked non stop with my date… It was exhausting. Frank….has me spoiled. Convo was easy with him and comfortable silences. Not bloody fair. Men these days need to be re educated on how to date ! What ever happened to flowers and romance
October 8, 2014 at 5:00 am #367874mariaHarl, sorry the guy wasn’t a keeper, still I hope you found the whole thing interesting… as an experience… and if nothing else you got to get out and wear your dress, and that’s a good thing, right!!?
Celeste, I’m glad your new job is looking positive… and something else entirely – you said earlier that your taste in music is from another era, I’m curious, what is your taste in music!??
Hottie, yeah, I’m really looking forward to seeing him… this is what it’s gonna be all the time though, cause this is what his life looks like… I’m just gonna go with the flow and enjoy our time together for what it is (regardless of what it is or will be). He comes home Saturday night and I actually have plans with friends for Sat night, so he’s either gonna have to join us, or make plans for me and him for Sunday if he wants to see me…
Re guys being lazy, they are programmed to give as little as possible to get as much as possible… most (or should I say “some”? or “a few”?) guys put in extra effort when they really want something though… and the ones who don’t… well, they will never be winners in love or life, will they!!?
October 8, 2014 at 10:05 am #367901SherriYesterday, had an awesome time with FWB. We also have a nice talk after our session every time. We do not chat at all in between meetings just the occasional chat about schedule and stuff. Yesterday, he was mentioning when we were talking about dating others that right now all he is looking for is good sex/session and a good connection … enough to be able to talk and discuss anything (like what we have). Also he has put on some weight over the summer and his main focus right now is to getting back to being fit before he even starts dating others. He is always ok to listen to my stories of my dates/meet ups/FWNBs and stuff.
This week is my peak time and so I did not want to have sex at all except all the foreplay etc. that we could do and he was totally ok with that. Yep he is really good at that ;)
This kind of attitude is ok for an FWB as I am not looking for more. But I wonder if I would be able to tolerate this with a guy I was actually dating ….
October 8, 2014 at 11:15 am #367926celesteannvHarley,
Dating for me was as much about finding out what I DID not want with a man as to what I did. I dated a few nice guys who where boring as crap!
Tying this to anther post.. so many LAZY guys too.
That is what hooked me about J. He was not a lazy boy, and kept me on my toes keeps me on my toes. He still makes me laugh everyday and makes me reach mentally, emotionally, etc.
There are very few people with whom I have that kind of connection in my life.Sherri.. it is good you have a comfortable place to be in now.. you will know when you are ready for more and the man is right.
Maria.. I love all types of music but love rockabilly, good funk, early R&B, gritty early rock, down home bluegrass. I do like some new alternative that my son has introduced me too, but classic stuff you can find on old vinyl is where I am happiest.
Oh and at this time of year, an amazing polka is fun too!Still fighting cold, but it is HUMP day in more way than one.
Happy day ladies.
October 8, 2014 at 11:43 am #367933RavenI like a good “polka” every now & then, too… Hahahahahahahaha!
October 8, 2014 at 4:02 pm #367995HarleyRaven…you are completely perverted. I love it.now…I just gotta find a decent guy to have a polka with !!
October 8, 2014 at 4:31 pm #368000celesteannvRaven.. you rock.. figuratively and literally. And I agree lol.. Especially since the man is Polish :)
I never really checked out your bank, what tdo you guys play. Wish you were closer :(
October 8, 2014 at 6:05 pm #368019RavenCelelste … We’re Blues, Rock & Roll, Funk & anything else on a dare!
October 9, 2014 at 9:05 am #368067SherriGood Morning Ladies,
I was reading the website “R u l e s R e v i s i t e d” yesterday and it got me feeling a bit sad. Especially the part where he mentions how the women are hottest in their 20s and then the “hotness” goes down. Also how guys in their 40s too are looking for late 20s early 30s girls and not ladies around their age or even ladies in their late 30s.
Though I don’t think I am ready for a relationship yet, it made me wonder if by not being ready whether I am “wasting my precious years” and that when I am ready, whether the guys wont be avbl anymore.
Also if it is so difficult for a woman who doesn’t have little kids to find guys then how difficult it must be for a single woman with two little kids. As when I find the guy, he not only needs to be compatible to me but needs to be a good step dad to my kids too.
As I said, I am in a very sad and broading mood today …. :(
October 9, 2014 at 9:56 am #368068mariaTO HELL with R u l e s R e v i s i t e d. Hotness doesn’t automatically go down after the 20s. It all depends on genes/how well you age and how well you take care of yourself… I know A LOT of peole that look better now in their 30s than they did in their 20s… and look at all those reunion TV shows… like 95% in those look better now than they did 10 years ago…
Interesting to hear about your taste in music Celeste… I too like many different types… soul, r&b, hiphop, house, dance, rock, pop, old music, new music, jazz, blues, and folk music too. What matters most to me is the voice… I like natural (not too trained) voices with an attitude and lots of expression… voices that “crack” in all the right places. The lyrics matter a lot as well, and it’s always a plus if the one who sings is the one who wrote the song… I love music, I have been singing in choirs for years… I’m no superstar at singing but nonetheless I love it passionately…
I hope you all are doing good… and are looking forward to the weekend… I know I am <3
October 9, 2014 at 9:57 am #368069melSherri F that guy and his article that is his opinion I know a ton of guys who prefer older women and stear clear of the 20 somethings because they’re too immature and play games and don’t know what they want too much drama they say lol so chin up there is someone out there that you are just his type. In fact I read an article on how it is better to date a single mom than anything else
Love sweetie don’t let one article get you down I read that one myself and found it to be crapOctober 9, 2014 at 10:06 am #368070mariaAnd seriously, we can’t even mention other websites now!!!!!!!!! This must be the only forum in the world that has that restriction, and it PISSES ME OFF… fucking North Korea is less restricted than this place…
October 9, 2014 at 10:19 am #368072HarleyYep…I agree with Mel and Maria. Some men want younger woman…A lot don’t. .do t believe all you read..A lot of it is the same churned out garbage a d in real life each love situation is different. I did not agree with a lot of the rules when you posted them months ago Sherri.
October 9, 2014 at 10:22 am #368073SherriI was just discussing with my friend yesterday as to how I totally love my freedom. My meet up groups, my dates, my FWNBs etc and how I am like a guy who will only give it up if they find the person worth giving it up for. And then I read that article and it got me kind of down. Its not that I believed it 100% but I was wondering if there was some truth in it.
I also do not even message guys who are less than 30 years as I find them really really immature. I remember once telling a guy last year to grow up and stop being so high school immature. And I think he was 26 years LOL
This is the 1st time I went to that website as a lot of women here quote it. I had some time to kill (not touching the annulment forms yet – don’t want to spoil my thanksgiving) and decided to check it out. And it got me feeling so low.
On another note, I find it amusing that guys in North America who are in their 30s have so much variety. Because from what I remember in India, if a guy is still single when he is in his mid to late 30s, he is kind of considered on the shelf RFOL.
October 9, 2014 at 11:21 am #368084celesteannvSherri,
Frankly I think the Rules stuff is crap. I was much thinner had smoother skin when I was in my 20’s but had no clue. I think I came into my hotness in my late 30’s and 40’s.Also, there are lots of men looking for partners – similar age and life point – rather than arm candy.
J has 2 daughter in their 20’s and gets grossed out by older guys and young girls.As to the dating a mom, I think you have to find a man at a similar life point or one who at least has had kids.. maybe even a little older. When I first started dating, I thought men with no kids would have less baggage, but I found they could not fathom the depth of commitment we have as parents to our kids. That being said, I did NOT want to date man with very young kids as I had “been there, done that.”
Sorry you are feeling down… remember how amazing you are and know that the right man will see that and will see it too.
October 9, 2014 at 11:55 am #368086PhoebeSherri…I was 34 when my husband left me, and my kids were 12, 7, and 5. Ignoring the fact that I did EVERYTHING WRONG when it came to getting back out there, ie. too soon, no personal checklist, desperate for male attention to make me feel validated as a desirable woman, I had a HELL of a time finding a man who was willing to get in a REAL relationship with me b/c of my kids.
Looking back now, I am grateful(?) for that, b/c I personally had sooooooooo much work to do on myself before I was even ready to think about being in a serious relationship again. I think to myself every once in a while, damn, I’m 40 now, my chance was when I was younger!! But truthfully, I am in such a better place mentally and emotionally now….and I feel like physically I LOOK better than I did. My confidence in myself and what I want from a man has evolved a LOT. :) The right man won’t care how old you are. At least, that’s what I keep telling myself. lolXOXOXOXOXO
