Mending a broken Heart can Happen...
Posted:
1/4/2008 7:15:19 AM
From a guy who's had his heart broken many times: I couldn't have said it better myself. Another favorite quote of mine is: "If you love something (or someone ) set it free. If it comes back to you, it's yours, If it doesn't, it never was.

Day After Date - Phone Call
Posted:
1/1/2008 2:20:08 PM
I don't know about anyone else, but I always call or e-mail the next day if I enjoyed the company and the date.
I think the same should apply for either men or women.

Home Alone For the
Posted:
12/24/2007 10:19:14 PM
It's my 1st year alone, and I'm simply trying not to think about it, my family and I exchanged gifts Sunday morning and are "scattered to the four winds" on the actual holiday I didn't even decorate, Just trying to keep my chin up and entertain myself somehow, I will not, however allow self pity to defeat me. But it's also nice to know I'm not alone in being alone for the holidays. Maybe I'll get a New Year's Eve date! But I can somewhat relate to the guy who wants to "fast forward" to March too.

Christmas Break Up ?
Posted:
12/24/2007 10:57:22 AM
Make sure you tell her and all the family! He's hurting not only her, and you, but your young nieces and or nephews too. and remember, kids would rather be from a broken home than live in one.
Don't worry, in the end BOTH of them will pay a very high price for this kind of crap!

Christmas Break Up ?
Posted:

4 words come to mind. Cold, rude, heartless and STUPID!!! Of both her, and your bother!
I'd tell your brother's wife about it. I don't know who is worse, her or him.
I know it's not easy to hear this now, but you are much better off without her, She could have at least waited till after Christmas. And I'd all but disown your brother, that's very low of him too. He's hurting not only you, but his wife and any kids he has too.
I'm sorry for you. That really sucks.

Why do men request Financially Secure women????
Posted:
12/23/2007 2:44:11 PM
I think most are just trying to discourage potential "gold diggers". In my profile I only request someone who can and will pull their own weight. as long as they can do that I don't care what they do for a living. (as long as it's not Illegal, indecent, or immoral) But women do it too. I have passed on answering profiles requesting "professional career men only!" or similar things like that.

Missed Opportunity?
Posted:
12/22/2007 9:51:30 PM
If you wait too long he may start seeing someone else, and then you'll lose him, A Similar thing happened to me, And by the time I got back to her she had just started seeing someone she was obviously quite taken with. Point is I missed the opportunity by mere days! I've learned while you always have to be careful and think a little, you also have to learn to follow your heart, It sounds like he still likes you! Strike while the iron is hot! The opportunity is NOW!!! 'cause he's available NOW! In two weeks, who knows? And hell no it's not too forward. I've had women take me to dinners, a play, invite me to parties etc. These days its as common for a women to ask a guy out as it is the other way around.

EDIT*** Warning sign from a date?
Posted:
12/21/2007 8:16:57 AM
[/"Afterwards, while walking to my car in the parking lot, she handed over the 5 that she took. I was seriously tempted to run back inside to put it back but figured I'd just tip big the next time I get the same waitress."]
OK, she's not a thief, - exactly, but still way too argumentative and controlling. This is someone who's always got to have things their way, And she still deprived the wait person of the full tip you intended, If she thinks you're a show off, she doesn't need to see you again.

Warning sign from a date?
Posted:
12/21/2007 7:58:58 AM
Warning sign? Of course it's a warning sign! The argument alone would have been enough for me to think twice about seeing her again, But then she proves herself to be dishonest, and a thief too? I'm surprised you even need to ask.
I properly would not have said anything about it not wanting to make a scene in a public place, but I would certainly never have called her again either. Unless it was to tell her I know what she pulled and I'm not interested in her.

Why am I still single, you ask? Good question!
Posted:
12/20/2007 9:57:30 AM
Several mistakes and problems here, But unlike your story I'll keep it somewhat brief.
1. Long distance relationship. always a strain.
2. meeting for a second date an hour away? That's nuts!
3. Both of you are disorganized, and very poor with maps and directions. you should have planned on getting there early in case there were any problems, like finding the train station.
4. You panicked and were too impatient with her, You weren't standing her up! you called and were trying to figure out how to find each other, hell, you only met 45 minutes late, and she wasn't upset about it
5. She's apparently somewhat sensitive about people raising their voice at all to her. And also not terribly forgiving about it. And I can't blame you for getting tired of her beating you over the head with it all day.
6. She is also very indecisive, can't make up her mind about anything, she didn't stick to the plan and wait at the station.like she should have.
That's at least part of why you're still single!

How do you learn to trust again?
Posted:
12/17/2007 8:20:16 AM
Ditto to what most people who responded have said already: "time heals all wounds"
But consider this: If you never give anyone at least a little trust at first, how will you ever know if they are trustworthy? You also need to give trust to get trust. But don't put up with anyones BS either, learn to look for and heed the red flags early on.

Can't put my finger on this.....
Posted:

She's merely reacting emotionally, not thinking. You only got divorced 4 months ago their is bound to be a lot of hurt and anger still there.
As for micky-Ds and most other fast food estabishments, It doesn't matter where they get their beef, I would avoid taking myself or kids there (if I had any) for the fact that nearly all their food is loaded with fat, sugar and/or salt.
Rent and watch the movie "Supersize Me" I would find it hard to believe that anyone who's watched this movie would feel comfortable eating at any fast food establishment, especially "Micky-ds".

When photos lie
Posted:
12/15/2007 9:03:12 AM
I don't think that most of the poor photo's are intentionally bad! Most people who own and use cameras are mediocre photographers at best, and some don't know what camera to buy, let alone how to use it well.
That being said, yes, there are some attempting to use old pictures or crude tricks, even using someone elses
picture! pretty stupid if you ask me. The jig is up when they walk into "starbucks" to meet you for that first date or meeting. They've proven them selfs to be at the very least, deceitful, and at the very most, an out and out liar before they so much as utter one word!

If she does it with you she'll do it to you. You are her second choice if #1 doesn't work out. And nobody likes to be second choice. Find someone who sees you as #1! 'cause you're the ONLY ONE! This situation is a recipe for a lot of hurt feelings.

“Viewed me” link on POF
Posted:
12/13/2007 8:06:41 PM
I look at a lot of profiles, and yes sometimes just to get some more insight from it due to what they posted in a forum. And from checking the "viewed me" link, I know many people are checking out my profile due to something I wrote.
As far as "fishing" goes, If I see that someone in my area has viewed me, then I take a look at their profile too, But no matter how I decide which profile to look at, I only respond to the ones that I honestly think would be a good match for me. But I figure if they "viewed me" already, there may be some interest there, on their part too, thus making it more likely that they will respond. And I did go out with one woman who responded to me, 'cause she saw that I had viewed her, but not responded yet. It was actually a pretty good first and last date!

Online Dating: poor results
Posted:
12/13/2007 2:48:14 PM
The thing about pay sites is that it is not in their best interest for you to find anyone!
Think about it, if you find someone you stop using the service, and stop paying!
Thus, they lose a customer!
They are in business to make money.
And they can't do that if you find anyone too quickly.
Thank God for POF!!!

Helpful books.
Posted:

Try "how to make anyone fall in love with you" by Leil Lowndes. Although I think the title promises way too much, it's a very interesting book on the chemistry as well as the sociological perspective of what makes both men and women fall in love.

Should I tell his wife?
Posted:
12/12/2007 8:26:15 PM
Well, you can report him on the bottom of his profile, there's a "report XXXX" link at the bottom of each profile. Also, I think there are websites to report cheaters. Dontdatehim.com Should you tell his wife? well, if you do, do it to stop him from hurting other women not for revenge. If he keeps doing this, she'll find out sooner or later anyway. I've also heard that there are certain red flags to look for to spot married guys, you never go to his place, you never meet his friends or family, he will only give you his cell number, when he talks to you it always during the day while he's at work, his lying about his age and height are red flags! Their are lots of articles on how to spot cheaters and players on-line. look and you will find them. it works both for men and women that way.
Oh. and they almost never leave their wives for the other woman no matter what they say. And a married guy can say divorced or single just as easily as separated, and their are many shades of separation, some people separate and never get a divorce, for other they are just waiting for the judges signature. You've got to use your head as well as your heart to find "the one". protect yourself.

Help me read this guy
Posted:
12/12/2007 5:22:41 PM
cincydeb, I so disagree with you on first meet chemistry, most of the time all it is is mutual physical attraction, and some clever flirting. And while there's nothing wrong with that, you shouldn't judge romantic compatibility on that alone.
My ex and I dated for three or four weeks before I even kissed her, and we were married for 21 years! Way too many people on here have this "love at first sight" attitude, and want a instantly deep intimate romantic relationship with no time or effort spent at all. This is the very reason so many relationships fail these days! A lasting relationship needs to have a solid foundation in friendship first, that's what the OP has now with this guy, I for one think they may have a very good chance.
I'm personally sick and tired of the "I didn't feel the spark, or the chemistry" on the first date attitude. Sometimes the magic takes a little time.

Help me read this guy
Posted:
12/12/2007 4:56:11 PM
It's pretty tough for anyone on here to judge him based on a couple of paragraphs. My best suggestion is to ask him! and to let him know how you feel about him. It may be that he's been hurt a lot in the past and is taking the time to make sure about the two of you. could be he's trying to be very careful not to be hurt again. But this is just speculation on my part. If you want the real answers to these questions, only he knows for sure. So ASK HIM!!!
Good communication is important in any kind of relationship. Open up to him, and with any luck at all he'll open up too you too.
But if you don't want him, I'm sure a lot of other women on here would take him off your hands!

Posted:
12/12/2007 9:41:26 AM
The best advice? Follow your heart! But you have to use your head too! Whatever you do, don't let this situation with seeing two guys at the same time go on ANY LONGER!!! You need to pick one or the other SOON! of course to anyone reading your posting, the choice seems obvious! You want someone who's going to love you back. Do they know about each other? Weather they do or not, and you continue to see both, you may wind up losing both.
Been there done that, once, NEVER EVER AGAIN!!! Take maybe a day at the most to do a little soul-searching, and then PICK ONE!!! This situation is very bad for all three of you!

Why are women attracted to musicians?
Posted:
12/10/2007 8:50:06 AM
I personally think you stereotyping musicians way too much here! Not all, or even most of them are male sluts that will sleep with anything, I think that's just an unfair statement. People should be judged by their individual character only, not because they happen to play or sing in a band.
I've read somewhere that comedians actually get laid even more than musicians. By your logic, they must really be horrible male sluts!

Come on! We're not all like that! That's unfair! I PREFER women in my own age group because I feel that I'm likely to have more in common with them besides age. forty-somethings chasing twenty somethings are indeed very shallow and likely to be after only one thing. And you're right! there are plenty of attractive ladies in my own age group!

She Needs time? What does that mean?
Posted:
12/8/2007 8:02:03 PM
"I need some time" or "I need a break" is almost always a prelude to a break-up. Don't take any crap, I'd just ignore her, she expects you to try to do something to "make up" or something, but the cycle will just repeat itself again. don't play her little game. This scenario is typical if the relationship started hot, heavy, and fast. And 3 or 4 weeks is about right.
I've been there and done that twice now. I was better prepared for it the second time, the next time I'll just bow out gracefully. Sorry, but it sounds like you are already seeing it yourself.

Why women wont date seperated men
Posted:
12/8/2007 6:41:42 PM
There are many shades of separation, Some people separate, and never bother with a divorce until one of them wants to re-marry, Some are still married, and only just "emotionally" separated. I think a lot of women's biggest fear is that the guy will reconcile with the Ex-to-be and get back together with them. And for others, married is married even if the only thing left between them is a judge's signature. It is how it is. deal with it. With all the potential problems, I can't blame most women for passing on guys who are "separated".

why is it men cant make a decision?
Posted:
12/8/2007 7:49:47 AM
I'm curious do these relationships start out all "hot and heavy" right away? If so, that could be part of the problem.
I had a couple of brief relationships start that way, then fizzle out after 3or 4 weeks first going cold, and then hot again, a few times. I think it's best to start out as friends first, and then build up the intimate part of the relationship slowly and gradually. That way if it doesn't work out after awhile you are not as emotionally attached to the person, and there aren't as many hard feelings.
Eric.

Your consideration and thoughtfulness for other peoples feelings is admirable, but ill spent on someone who lies to you about what they look like with either an old, or false picture. There are a lot of losers who put the blame on everyone else but themselves. Until they can change, they are doomed to repeat the same cycle over and over again. Best way to deal with it is to tell them you're not interested one time, and why! and then just ignore them.

why do men say they love you?
Posted:
12/5/2007 1:08:07 PM
Lust at first sight, physical attraction at first sight, - Yes! Love? No! And some people both men and women alike toss the "L" word around quite casually and loosely. This guy doesn't say it until he's 110% sure that that's what he's feeling.
People who believe in love at first sight are immature and unrealistic, they've been watching too many fairy tale fantasies
or reading too many romance novels etc. And while it's true that some people fall in love faster than others, It does take SOME amount of time.

Does physical intimacy deter knowing eachother well
Posted:
12/5/2007 7:28:22 AM
In my recent experience, Yes! Since I've been single again I've had 2 brief relationships that both started off "hot and heavy" and both times the pace was set by the women. Things went from me being almost perfect, to having her nick-pick me on the slightest problems, which I was willing to discuss and work on, But really I think in both cases they were trying to pick a fight to break up with, looking for an excuse.
The point is that both these relationships were based on intimacy alone, and crumbled like a house of cards at the first sign of resistance.
Relationships need to have a solid foundation of friendship and mutual respect first, as your feelings for each other grow, Intimacy is merely the natural of expressing them.
Sex and intimacy too soon is a recipe for hurt feelings, heartbreak, and lots of drama.

asking to borrow money on first date
Posted:
12/4/2007 7:38:17 AM
Asking to borrow money ANYTIME early in a relationship, is A HUGE red flag for both men and women.
As far as dating goes anyway, my motto is: "never a lender or a borrower be!"

How bold is to bold
Posted:
12/4/2007 12:01:36 AM
If you've exchanged a few e-mails, and she seems interested, give her your cell number and invite her to call you. I find many women are more comfortable with that then if you ask for their number. If the phone conversation goes well, and she still seems interested, then that's the time to ask her out! opportunity is knocking! strike while the iron is hot! The standard 1st date is meeting her somewhere for coffee or drinks, but definitely not the rule.
But it's true, too fast you will scare them off, assuming you just want to get laid. Too slow they will lose interest, assuming that your not seriously interested.

Does it matter how you pay for a date?
Posted:
12/3/2007 1:15:08 PM
No! It shouldn't matter, it's none of their business how you pay for the date, and furthermore unfair and very short sighted to assume you are going to have the same type of financial problems based on weather you use cash or a credit card. Hmmm... I don't even HAVE a credit card, not that I couldn't have several if I wanted, I use a debit card instead, I wonder what assumptions would be made about me for that?
It would be a big turn-off for me. You did the same thing I would have, let them know it's none of their business, and that you think it's unfair to make assumptions about your finances, which are also really none of their business.

The letter you write not to send

I've heard of this kind of therapy for a broken heart, I think it must be fairly common, I read about it somewhere else on-line, don't know if it works or not though, I sent mine. It didn't help anything, if anything it just made it hurt more. The way I heard it though is that you're supposed to write the letter and then throw it away or delete it. I guess it's supposed to be some kind of "release" of your emotional pain or something like that.

I cook! I started learning how when I was about 6 years old. I like to cook for the women I date, and it also means a lot to me if they make a home cooked meal for me, even if they aren't a great cook. The time, effort, and care they took to make a meal for me never goes unappreciated.

I had a pastor of mine say some very wise words to me one time regarding this, and other similar situations:
"You condemn the ACT! - Not the Person."
And I also agree you should stay completely out of the situation and have absolutely nothing to do with it.

Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all?

Yes, I have! As I say in my Profile, I'm not all about how hot a women looks. Sure, their has to be some physical attraction. But what's really important is weather or not they are a beautiful person on the inside. I have been out with several attractive women who didn't initially post a picture or even send one with their response. There can be many reasons why a person might choose not to post a picture other than being shy or insecure about their looks, I think a lot of people, both men and women are missing out on some really great catches because they are too shallow or insecure to get to know anyone without a picture. Perhaps really hot looking people not posting a picture are trying to weed out shallow people! Who wants to be liked for just their looks? Not me.

Needed advice

You're not stupid, But you do seem to have fallen in love with a Player who's finally gotten tired of playing you.
You can't let guy's treat you like this, you need to let go and try to forget him, it's unfortunate that he lives right next to you, have you considered moving? You seem to be someone with low self esteem. You need to love yourself more 1st.
I know it's hard, but time heals all wounds. There's a lot of great guys out there who would cherish your love and return it in kind. Don't settle for anything less.

How do you handle not so good things in your profile?
Posted:

There's a such thing as being too honest, too soon, Most people will automatically judge you on even one bad mistake in your life, even if there is a long history of good before and after it. It's a shame how one bad can erase all the good. People need to be judged on who and what they are NOW!
Your profile should focus on the good, positive side of your life, - not on your past mistakes that you've already paid for. Wait till someone has learned to appreciate the good in you NOW before you bring up your past mistakes.
If they reject you then because of 1 or 2 past mistakes, they are a very unforgiving person, and not worth it anyway.

Guys You don't want to date
Posted:

Well I don't know about anyone else but if I find someone I "click" with, and it gets past 3 or 4 casual dates, I'll see them and only them, I also wouldn't feel the need to keep looking at that time, and I hide my profile while I'm seeing someone. Also, I personally am not into long distance relationships, they have to live within 30 minutes or less of me.
This Guy sounds like he was either a Player, or just a plain loser, and he was hitting on your best friend? Did he know she was your friend? If so he was pretty stupid as well. I'd say good riddance!
