I really think men don't enjoy dating. But women do. For men, take out that wallet for an investigative foray into the world of possibilities. For women, the movie and chicken Cordon Bleu are certainties.
I never thought about this until I lived in Atlanta and was involved in my north end parish full of transplants. The (Mod cut: religious slur) I love to complain about would talk about guys and sneer "He doesn't date much," as if a put down. (Many put downs came out of her mouth, actually.)
I have always viewed dating of the "getting to know" variety as a pain in the ass. Going out with someone you already know is fine.
Men and women, what do you think?

Reason: talk, not take
I never enjoyed dating for the sake of dating and as a result, didn't do it all that often. (I can probably count on one hand the number of actual "dates" I went on.) I'd rather be home in my room listening to some music.
I think if someone were to look at dating like a series of hoops you have to jump through in order to get ...whatever you are trying to get, it would get old and not fun.
But if you see it as a fun time and plan it with that in mind, it is fun for both.
Dating has become far too much like going for a job interview. Too much pressure, not really fun. I would rather spend time indoors reading, watching TV or playing Xbox.

In what ways are dating like job interviews? That's been said quite a few times around here, and I'm genuinely curious.

Some dates I've been on can give an impression you're being grilled for your qualities. It feels like you have to constantly sell yourself to remain interesting.
