A man who knows how to treat a lady? HUH? Posted: 4/25/2009 11:16:03 PM
He shows up neatly dressed, smelling good and sober. He opens doors for his date and is polite, considerate and listens when she speaks, without interrupting or changing the subject. He doesn't bash his ex, he doesn't even mention her actually, if he's smart, and he doesn't start groping and shoving his tongue down her throat at the end of the date, that's all I'm sayin.... Pink

How to start dating after 30 years of not being available Posted: 3/12/2009 4:20:57 PM
First of all, be the very best that you can be. Get your hair and nails done, buy some new clothes and shoes so you'll be ready to step out in style. Join a volunteer group to meet new people, take up a new hobby or a course at the college, start jogging or just walking around the neighbourhood, clean your house and toss out all the old junk you'll never use and start fresh. Wash your car and remember, dating isn't the only game in town, yeah it's nice to go out once in a while, but there are a lot of other things you can do that bring happiness into your world. And if you do meet someone and want to go out, tuck a condom in your purse because you just never want to wake up being sorry. Pink

Ladies do you mean what you say? Posted: 3/10/2009 9:07:12 PM
Of course we mean what we say, but perhaps we are looking for someone who has similar interests and goals in life, it's not just about the looks or the attitude, it's about whether we would be a good 'match', or not, and you can't win them all. Pink

Don't knock yourself out trying to figure out if someone's beating around the bushes or just flirting, after all, the fun is in the chase, so go have some fun. If someone's really interested in getting to know you better, she'll let you know, sooner or later. Pink

Why do women stop e-mailing after a short time? Posted: 3/6/2009 8:49:24 PM
Women are really like little honey bees, they flit from flower to flower until they find one that really has what they're looking for and then they'll stick around. Attracting a woman isn't all that difficult, it's holding her interest - that's the key. Pink

You haven't really landed a fish until it's wiggling in your hands, gasping for air, and you're taken out your hook. Then she's all yours. OP, this little fish hasn't even as much nibbled at your bait, and you're reeling her in? Not so fast, oh and what's more, the fun is in the chase. Pink

She did say that if she had fun with you, she'd do it again, but I doubt that will happen. She said no to kanoodling on the first date, but you went for it anyway, but didn't hit a home run, too bad, how sad. No wonder women get ticked off! Pink

Getting drunk on your first get together probably wasn't the smartest thing you've ever done, sounds like you're a little confused about what you want, but it really doesn't matter if this woman has found someone else. You win some, you lose some and then you get on with it. Pink

This forum is international friendly and many regulars are from all parts of the globe. Unfortunately, some folks are quick to criticize the slightest of booboos, after having lost sight of the fact that nobody is perfect. The internet is full of poor grammar, typos and errors, but don't let that discourage you, most posters mean well. Pink

A majority, or just a few? Posted: 2/21/2009 8:00:09 PM
Last time I checked, there are 24 hours in every day, if you work half of them that still leaves the other 12, plus one free day. Having a good job puts you on the plus side and if a woman wants more than you can give her, well that's just too bad, tell her to deal with it, or not, but don't give up your job. Pink

Of course you should, we don't always get in life what we don't ask for, or pursue. Sometimes it works out and sometimes it doesn't, but you have nothing to lose here. But please make your comments interesting, don't just ask her 'how's your day'? But let her know you're interested in getting to know her better, that's all. Pink

bad manners to ask someone out that is working? Posted: 2/20/2009 10:35:36 PM
You'd be taking such a huge risk without knowing if she's already in a relationship, so until you get to know a little more about her, remember, only fools rush in where others fear to tread. Pink

When a girl says she's gotta go, there could be someone knocking on her front door, she may already have company, her land line phone could be ringing, or she was getting ready to go out, or she might want to check her email for new messages, or she just plain has to go!

Should I go Dancing Solo? Posted: 2/14/2009 9:58:37 PM
I wouldn't be up on the dance floor by myself, but that's me. If you see someone that you think you'd like to dance with, make eye contact first, and smile. If she smiles back or looks the other way, that's body language that's pretty easy to interpret. Go have fun, you have nothing to lose. Pink

Should i follow through? Posted: 2/12/2009 7:10:22 PM
If you can't join her for her birthday, why not ask her out for the following evening and do something besides bar hopping? I think going for dinner and a movie on a first date is more than just a casual meeting, so if she said she'd like to see you again, what is your problem exactly? If she seemed annoyed because you didn't make a move, then maybe you should take the hint and not hold back next time. Go for it and you'll know by her response if it's a go, or not. It takes more than a few dates to really get to know which way the wind is blowing. Pink

Relax, and put it behind you. We all make mistakes, but we should learn from them, so if you babbled like a fool on the phone, don't do it on your date! Ask her questions and give her time to answer and pay attention! Pull yourself together, and be cool. Don't apologize for being human, let it go. Pink

Money, an argument? Posted: 2/12/2009 6:41:21 PM
There are plenty of women out there with good paying jobs that don't want some guy paying their way so that they end up feeling like they "owe" him something at the end of the evening, regardless of how the date went. The first few dates, well it's okay for the guy to pay for both but if things progress after 3 or 4, then the lady should offer to chip in, depending on what she can afford, but that goes for the guy, too. There are plenty of things to do that don't have to co$t a small fortune. On the other hand, if a guy is really, really cheap, it doesn't leave a great impression on the ladies. Pink

Dating single Dads with kids over the age of ??? Posted: 2/11/2009 8:01:51 AM
And the teenage years are just ahead and we all know how wonderful they can be, or not. I'd rather let someone raise their own kids all by themself because the kids need both their parent's attention and being the third adult in the picture can get a little crowded. The time to look for someone else is when the children are all grown up and have left the nest, then there might be a little more room. Pink

I might contact someone who has viewed my profile but only their profile interests me. I know what I like - and what I don't, so if their profile doesn't tickle my fancy, I won't waste my time, or theirs. Height is usually the tip off, and yes, size matters. Pink

That little voice in your head that's telling you to move slowly is really a red flag blowing in the wind. It's only been a month since you met this woman, but regardless that you will be moving away soon, (not that far away, really) and she's still got some stuff to clean up, if you were meant to be together, you'll work it out. It just depends how badly both of you want to take those steps to get to happy ever after. The road to true love isn't always a smooth one. Pink

When is the right time to ask for contact info? Posted: 1/30/2009 9:45:44 PM
After exchanging a few messages with someone on POF and getting a sense of who I'm talking to before I decide if I really want to know more. Anyone who asks me to switch to Messenger or Yahoo right away turns me off, I get an email whenever there's a new message on POF so I can read it when I have time. I guess there are too many young'uns out there who want to MSN right away, but they really don't have a lot to say, other than asking me what I'm wearing, and that got old really fast. Yawn I'd rather find out a little more about a person before I give him my email address or phone #, you gotta earn some trust here. Pink

poetry in a profile? Posted: 1/6/2009 6:44:05 PM
We've all seen a lot of profiles that are pretty lame, generic and don't tell the reader very much about the writer. There are others that are well written, humourous and descriptive, but one has to dig to find them. It's like checking out a lot of frogs before finding a prince! But reading poetry in a profile? Unless it was creatively written, short and sweet, it might not achieve the goal the writer was hoping for, better to leave it for direct contact with a certain person in mind. But that's just my opinion. Pink

Judging a man on a first date. Posted: 1/6/2009 6:29:12 PM
I think it takes 2 or 3 dates to figure out whether you are possibly a good 'match', but if I haven't really decided one way or the other after the 4th date, that's usually a clue it's just not meant to be. If there's no chemistry, there's no fire. No heat? it's just another day! Oh, well. Pink

would you tell a man youre pregnant to keep him? Posted: 12/30/2008 9:33:10 PM
Some girls think that if they get pregnant, their boyfriend will stick with them, no matter what and they will all live happily after. Unfortunately, this is not the smart way to start a family, or trap someone into marriage that they do not want, or are not ready for. There's a lot to be said about Family Planning, but there's plenty of babies born that were complete surpises too! But any girl who would fake a pregnancy is really selfish, or not very savvy. The only way to make sure this doesn't happen to you is to keep your pecker in your pants, is all I'm sayin... and if you just can't do it, then take the responsibility for protection and put a sock on it, every single time.

Relationships are not about trying to control what someone else does, or doesn't do. If this situation isn't your problem, then why try to make it so? Let this play itself out and all you can do is be supportive and understanding, or not. It's up to you. Pink

She might not even be aware of the problem, so if you really do like her, do her a favour and tell her, nicely and in private, of course. It'd be a shame to break it off because you don't have the guts to be honest, but that is what relationships are made of, you relate to each other, really. Actually - you could learn a lot by her reaction, what do you have to lose? Pink

As a matter of fact, yes - the ring size matters. A petite lady would look silly wearing a slobberknocker ring on her small hand, it should compliment her. But an itsy bitsy teeny weeny ring on a more statuesque lady would look pitiful indeed. Why not just ask her what style she likes, or let her pick one out when you both go shopping? Now that would work for me! Pink

Losing a loved one is very difficult and takes a little time before someone can start focusing on anything else. But I would let her know that you are there for her, and ask her out for a nice dinner, somewhere quiet. Christmas is just around the corner, why not get her something really warm and snuggly that would cheer her up, but I'd wait until the new year before I'd let her know where you're at. Good luck.

Alarming statistics attributed to aging men fathering children Posted: 12/5/2008 7:50:31 AM
Women who are past 45 have a higher risk of having babies with challenges, too. I know several men who became fathers when they were in their mid-fourties and their kids are fine, but their mothers were 10 years younger than their husbands were. I decided once I hit the big 40, my baby days were over and it was time for me to enjoy my life, and that did not include being a step-mom to young teenagers after I hit 50. To each his own, but there's a lot to be said about family planning. Pink

Shared Housing With Man Sharing - Would it be an option? Posted: 11/29/2008 5:55:10 PM
From a legal standpoint, who owns the house? What happens when that owner dies and the beneficiaries start circling around wanting their piece of the pie? Up goes the for sale sign and everyone scatters, there is no security in this kind of an arrangement, unless the residents can make some kind of an agreement. I think I'd prefer to keep my own home, thanks just the same. Pink

Is dressing for comfort instead of style and fashion really a crime? Posted: 11/16/2008 7:10:23 AM
You don't get a second chance to make a favourable first impression. I believe men are visual creatures more so than women are. When meeting someone for the first time, what men see is what they think they'll get. So if you show up in faded old blue jeans and a T shirt on a first date? That's your decision, but why not look your best? Pink

Question about time... Posted: 11/11/2008 7:39:56 PM
Time? It's the only thing that we all have that really matters, how we want to spend it is up to us. It takes time to get to know someone, so after 1 date, 4 weeks, or 6 months or even 10 years go by and it's not working for me? See ya, and if I'm looking for an excuse to break off a relationship, I just pick one, the old I don't have time right now? that means I don't want to waste my time with someone who's not on the same page as I am, period. Not that hard to figure out. Pink
