Hi Everyone! I've done something kind of similar in the Religion and Philosophy forum and I thought I'd do on here. Now - like the title says - this is a "friendly" survey! Please, no gender bashing. Leave the judgements at the door. Let's keep this nice and happy! If you don't feel comfortable answering a question - just skip it!

1. What is your gender and sexual orientation?
2. Do you prefer to be the pursuer or pursuee (yes, I made up that word)?
3. On a first date - do you offer to pay?
4. Have you ever asked someone out on a date - meaning the first date?
5. Have you ever hit on someone - meaning a complete stranger?
6. Have you ever been hit on by a complete stranger?
7. Have you ever had sex with someone because they spent a lot of money on you?
8. Have you ever expected sex from someone because you spent a lot of money on them?
9. Would you date someone who was really hot that didn't make you laugh?
10. Have you ever been in a serious, long term relationship?
11. Are you married or currently in a long term relationship?
12. Are you divorced?
13. Do you have pets?
14. Anything else you want to add?

Thank you!!!

1. What is your gender and sexual orientation?
I'm a straight woman.
2. Do you prefer to be the pursuer or pursuee (yes, I made up that word)?
Hmm... I guess I like it best when the lines are blurred and we are both pursuing each other. You know - where the sexual tension is so thick you could cut it with a knife and you are both fighting it and enjoying it at the same time!
3. On a first date - do you offer to pay?
Always, always, always.
4. Have you ever asked someone out on a date - meaning the first date?
Yup.
5. Have you ever hit on someone - meaning a complete stranger?
When I was younger - meaning a teenager - I would do it for fun but as I got older and realized that I wanted more out of someone than a cute face, I never really felt the urge to do so.
6. Have you ever been hit on by a complete stranger?
Yup.
7. Have you ever had sex with someone because they spent a lot of money on you?
Hell no!!!
8. Have you ever expected sex from someone because you spent a lot of money on them?
Hell no!!!
9. Would you date someone who was really hot that didn't make you laugh?
Hell no!!!
10. Have you ever been in a serious, long term relationship?
Yup. 3 of them.
11. Are you married or currently in a long term relationship?
Yup. I've been married for 6 years and we've been together for almost 10.
12. Are you divorced?
Nope.
13. Do you have pets?
I have the cutest dog in the world!!!
14. Anything else you want to add?
I have been so lucky in love - and honestly, I hope that everyone else gets to experience the tremendous love that I have been lucky enough to know.

Thank you!!!

1. What is your gender and sexual orientation? Male and totally hetero.
2. Do you prefer to be the pursuer or pursuee (yes, I made up that word)? I never cared. Sometimes I was the pursuer, sometimes the persuee.
3. On a first date - do you offer to pay? Always. I was old school that way. I still would be.
4. Have you ever asked someone out on a date - meaning the first date? Sure.
5. Have you ever hit on someone - meaning a complete stranger? Umm, if that means striking up a conversation, sure. If it means trying for a roll in the hay, no.
6. Have you ever been hit on by a complete stranger? It still happens. Heck, it happened two nights ago in the grocery store checkout line. I think it's because I like talking to people.
7. Have you ever had sex with someone because they spent a lot of money on you? No.
8. Have you ever expected sex from someone because you spent a lot of money on them? No. That's not how I rolled.
9. Would you date someone who was really hot that didn't make you laugh? I did that a couple of times. One was a model who had appeared on the cover of Italian Vogue and Elle. But she had no humor whatsoever. I hated it. My friends couldn't believe I dumped her.
10. Have you ever been in a serious, long term relationship? Married twenty years.
11. Are you married or currently in a long term relationship? Married twenty years.
12. Are you divorced? No.
13. Do you have pets? A cat and a rabbit.
14. Anything else you want to add?

Thank you!!!

I prefer to be the pursuer but mutual pursuing is fine as well.

3. On a first date - do you offer to pay?

Absolutely. If I don't pay I go dutch. I hate feeling obligated to anyone.

Yes, married once, divorced, then lived with someone.

Married.

1. What is your gender and sexual orientation?
Female, straight

2. Do you prefer to be the pursuer or pursuee (yes, I made up that word)?

"Prefer?" More like I tend to be oblivious and therefore end up the pursuee. When I'm single, I don't "look," if that makes any sense.

3. On a first date - do you offer to pay?

Depends on what the date is. If it's dinner, and then we go for a walk afterwards and stop in for a drink, I'll get the first one. If it's dinner and a movie, I'll get the popcorn at the movie. If he lets me. Rare that a man does. Nine times out of 10, when I get my wallet out, I'll hear, "Put that away."

4. Have you ever asked someone out on a date - meaning the first date?
Twice. And honestly? It wasn't so much that I really liked the guys. Believe it or not, my father nudged me toward the first one, in high school. "If you like him, ask him on a date!" I got rejected. Maybe that was supposed to be some kind of lesson for me as a girl, so I'd understand what boys went through when asking a girl for a date. Beats me. The second was a situation where I'd probably not run into the guy again. I figured he was nice-looking, might as well seize the day. Turns out he was dating someone. That was 20 years ago.

5. Have you ever hit on someone - meaning a complete stranger?

Not really--although apparently some people think "hi" means "I want you."

6. Have you ever been hit on by a complete stranger?
Yes.

7. Have you ever had sex with someone because they spent a lot of money on you?
No.

8. Have you ever expected sex from someone because you spent a lot of money on them?
No.

9. Would you date someone who was really hot that didn't make you laugh?
As long as he didn't make me cry! Seriously, though. He doesn't have to make me laugh. We just have to have fun together and have things to talk about.

10. Have you ever been in a serious, long term relationship?
Yes.

11. Are you married or currently in a long term relationship?

Yes.

12. Are you divorced?
Yes.

13. Do you have pets?
Yes. A bird. Looking to get another in the coming months.

14. Anything else you want to add?
I'm 45. I think age is relevant to the discussion.
