Do older men stay away from women in their 30's? Posted: 1/2/2009 5:50:17 PM
Thank your briargate, those are excellent suggestions! I sincerely appreciate your taking the time to post. The man you describe will take some time to flush out, I think. There actually are a few of us out here, we just don't seem to live where we are in demand. I'm still trying to figure out where people my age hang out....

What Date Would You Like To Relive? Posted: 9/23/2008 10:31:43 PM
Re-live? None because I'd do something different and screw it all up. I would like to have a do-over on the first date I had after my separation though; felt nervous and as awkward as a teenager on his first date....

Inlaws Posted: 9/1/2008 3:44:11 PM
They never wanted the boys over before and didn't call to see how they were the whole time their mother was in the nut house, why would they want to see them now?? BTW, they live about 5 minutes away

What are your joys of parenting? Posted: 8/31/2008 6:42:50 PM
As simple as a good night hug and kiss from my younger son (8) and the idea that my older son (12) still likes me to come in and rub or scratch his back and talk for a minute at bedtime.... Parental Bliss....

Would a man seriously date a woman with three kids Posted: 8/31/2008 6:35:21 PM
I have 2 kids of my own, what kind of jerk would I have to be to not want to date a woman because she has three of her own?? There are very few women in my age group who don't have kids and ignoring one because she has children would eliminate 90% of the women out there....

Learning How To Be Single ... Posted: 8/27/2008 8:24:01 AM
I keep seeing the phrase "happy being alone" and while I think I know where ya'll are coming from, I don't think most of us can be happy being alone. Humans are social creatures and we were not meant to be "alone". I think that deciding you are "happy being alone" is paramount to giving up. After a year and a half of separation, I just want to get comfortable in this new life before trying to move on. So I guess how do people get comfortable being single? The same way we get comfortable in a new pair of shoes? Time??

why the ex wife blocks the dad from contacting his kids ? Posted: 8/26/2008 5:38:05 PM
My wife gets to see the kids every other weekend and every Tuesday and Thursday and still manages to call right at bedtime when she calls. I only call when they are there for an extended time over the summer or on school breaks and then early enough to not be a disturbance of their time with mom. If she did not allow me to talk to them on those long visits, I really don't know how Iwould handle it....

please bring me up to 20th century dating? Posted: 8/23/2008 1:42:53 PM
Pls, don't beat me up, i haven't been on a date since getting married 15 yrs ago, and just started these online meetings...even though i let ppl know upfront i'm not gonna mess around until i meet the right one that i feel might stick around awhile. i end up having a great meeting with it ending badly when i almost have to pull out my brass knuckles to stop them from groping me and worst(and believe me its not because i think i'm so special, i have no doubt if i was bald and they had to cut me out of my house to get outside it would be no different)....met guys that i liked that were gentleman and hit it off great only to find they call me only during day and ask only to meet on weekday afternoons (duh, i can kind of figure that one out)..i make it clear in my profile i'm not interested in married or even "seperated men", but i found from my 1st meeting "fool me once, shame on me"....how do u find out in the beginning before u waste too much time if someone is playing you or not? ( i know i don't act flirtatious or "come on" to guys...i'm so nervous and scared sh**less i can barely talk...) btw, love reading all of your posts, lot of smart and funny ppl here.. Don't feel like the Lone Ranger out there, I'm in the same boat as far as figuring all this out. I'm trying to figure out where people my age go to meet one another without being "that creepy old guy"....

she has been diagnosed with bipolarism Posted: 8/5/2008 8:46:39 PM
Speaking from the experience of an 18 year marriage with a bipolar wife I have seen a lot of accurate information and generalized garbage in this thread. My experience is that bipolar people are not inherently bad or good; they have whatever personality they acquired as a child. What the bipolar part does to them (again, my experience) is fixate them on things that may or may not be real and obsess until they can completely lose touch with reality. This is when they can be very dangerous because they have no capacity to judge how dangerous their actions may be. My wife (separated now, can't do it anymore) endangered the life of my youngest son while trying to get him to be quiet (covered nose and mouth) and still cannot understand why I am so upset. Apparently, its all my fault....

Dont delete. I do exist. Posted: 5/8/2008 5:19:45 PM
I have never had a man who contacted my read my profile, they cant comment on anythign I have written and only comment on the photos. I go through the trouble to read a womans profile, respond to what she has to say in her wants and who she is and all I get is the dreaded "Read Deleted". I don't think I'm going "out of my league" but I guess they do.

This site isnt for me Posted: 5/7/2008 6:33:48 PM
I don't know that this isn't for me but I do get tired of getting on here, finding someone who sounds (and looks) interesting from my age group (I'm not chasing 20 somethings) and sending them an e-mail just to get the good old Read Deleted with no reply of yes, no, maybe later, go to hell.... Are we all shallow to a point? Sure, we all are whether we willl admit it or not.... I'm not the best catch in this pond but I'm not a bad one either....

What thing(s) about a man make your heart flutter? Posted: 5/6/2008 6:53:40 PM
Dago and Jim - - you're both Libras desiring Leos?? You'll be good for Leos because we (I) can be kind of neurotic and extremist, and Libras are good at putting some balance into life. I'm a Libra trying to get away from a Leo, be careful guys....

Separated vs. Divorced Posted: 5/6/2008 5:17:51 PM
How about a category of separated and filed?? I separated over a year ago but issues with custody have drug this out until now. Feb 07 through May 08 to get divorced ought to at least get me points for sticking to it....

Young Single Dads Posted: 4/7/2008 3:27:14 PM
Not as young as some of these guys at 43 but I am primary custodian of my two sons (8 & 12) and expect to remain primary custodian after everything is final. I've learned how to do things I never did and so have the kids, we're all in this together....

Questions: Where in E-town would make a possible rally point? 3 Putt Willies?? Does this have to be some formal thing (outlined in earlier post) or can it be loosely organized here (i.e. time and place listed until we get enough people who can make a particular date/place)??

First contact... no response. Should I give it another shot? Posted: 12/28/2007 7:21:44 PM
Had someone e-mail me because they had not received "confirmation" of an earlier message. I was not under the impression I had to answer every message I get (not that there are that many)....

Anyone tried dating the old fashion way recently? Posted: 12/15/2007 7:30:22 AM
I know the feeling. I have been out with two women since my separation, one I met randomly while out with friends, and one I met here. I really didn't notice a difference (nervous as hell with either) once we went out but at least with the lady I met here, I knew what she was looking for before we ever met in person. Still don't know what the other one wants to do....
