It's hard
3 days ago
...when it seems like all the guys I meet are gay, married/in a relationship, I’m not interested in them or it’s not appropriate for whatever reason.

How to go on a date
It made me
Happiest EVER!!! :D
 "It was with an old friend who i had lost contact with, then met online again and started getting closer. We would talk for hours everyday, until one day he asked me out and i took the oppurtunity... we've been going out since and its been 5 months =D"
How I did it: i didn't let my fear of comitment get to me, and desided to take a chance on someone and go out with him. turns out it was great. and made this my best year ever. |

How I did it: Recently had an acquaintance/friend from work(who I happen to knew "liked" me in some way) transform in to more. We exchanged numbers and started talking even more than we did at work. I liked him but there were some differences that kinda held me back. We planned a movie date to see Transformers 2 which was more of a "hang" at first but as we talked more turned into a date and we ended up having a few pre-date "dates". I'd de… Read how I did it…

How I did it: I decided to be more open minded and just "date" people - without checklists or expectations. But you know what? There's a reason I dont actively "date", and thats cos I DO have checklists and expectations and SO WHAT? Dating a guy just for the sake of "giving people a chance" is lame!! Some people just DO NOT have a chance and then you just feel bad for letting them think they ever had a chance.Yes I got free dinners, movies, but blah i … Read how I did it…

How I did it: I met this guy at a friend's birthday party. He got my number off our friend and messaged me to ask if I wanted to see a movie with him. I agreed, so we went out. Like a perfect gentleman, he picked me up at the door, paid, and made no sleazy moves :) Read how I did it…

I almost went out on a date last weekend. But that really doesn’t make a difference because I didn’t go =[. So I’ll just have to keep putting myself out there.

Ok so I am a single mother to a nine year old and I have not dated since I was pregnant when her father stopped taking me out. He left when my child was 8 months old. I gained a ton of weight and shut myself off from the dating world. I am now ready. So I have now done an eharmony profile but have not signed up. Maybe I will after the first 20 pounds

I don’t mean like a fancy expensive dinner date, just to go to the park or the movies or something. I’ve had 2 boyfriends, neither of them had cars, jobs, and almost never had any money, so I’ve never been picked up and taken out. I’ve always been the picker-upper and dropper-offer. Hopefully I’ll be asked out soon and will finally get to have a real date.

I might have one Saturday with this guy, Kyle. It will be a double date I guess. I’ve never been on one before. I’m a littler nervous. Any advice left in comments would be much appreciated!

A real Date

I haven’t been on a real date in a while. I’d love to go on a date with a handsome guy.
I just wish one date were enough.

The best friend of one of my oldest friends asked me out—we’d talked a lot at my friend’s birthday party, and seemed to hit it off really well. And we had nearly everything in common. We went out Friday, and seemed to have a nice time, but he hasn’t called or written yet (it’s Monday night), though I e-mailed to thank him right away. Maybe it’s premature to feel like I’m getting the brushoff, but surely four days is enough time to get back to someone. At 35, I’m too old to feel this way, but oh, how hard this business is, especially when you haven’t done it much before.

squim asks,
“I'm very nervous about this goal. I want to ask out this guy I know. I think he likes me, but I'm not sure. Basically I don't want to make a fool out of myself. Any ideas?”
